OMG this is wrecking my head. According to my mother and grandmother I am suppose to put up my grandad and his wife as well as my mum-in-law, dad-in-law and my 2 new sisters the week of my wedding. WTF!! My apartment is not big in the first place and I will be damned if I am entertaining that many people days before my wedding and when I’m 7 months pregnant. Been talking to my man and he agrees with me thank god cause I was starting to think that I was the unreasonable one. But I have out my foot down and that’s that!
Anyway finally booted out the brother and have an hour or two of some peace and watching Sister Act 2. Love that movie!! Thankfully I have no news……I am firm believer in no news is good news. Well the mother in law is coming home today from the funeral in England. A return trip we paid for I may add. Then my oldest sister in law is coming on Saturday and we are paying for her hair to be done as well. I’m not a scrooge with money but we have a lot to be paying for what with the wedding and a baby on the way and what not. Not to mention getting one huge bill 4 month electricity bill. After all who isn’t skint after xmas so no that ticket is not a present and I am definitely expecting it back. After all they haven’t given anything to us, nothing.Which is fine we don’t need anything but my parents have been so generous. They are paying for the reception, my dress and a surprise honeymoon. Yes I’ll admit my family are better off then his so I don’t expect the same things but god….lets just say I’m not impressed at all and neither is my family.
But onto world news anyway. I mentioned yesterday about the Kilkenny fire that killed a mother and her 2 daughters. Although an investigation is still underway into the circumstances surrounding the fire, a private prayer service is taking place in honour of the family. The family will be buried together tomorrow. This is one of those stories that you can’t help but feel for the family when you read. A family member was describing how she was wrapping presents on Xmas Eve and how it’s difficult to think that the children never lived to open them. My condolences are with the Whelan family and friends of the family at this time.
I also mentioned a woman being held in custody over the stabbing of a man in Kilkenny yesterday. Well the only update on that story is that the 18 year old has been taken to court.
Anyway that’s all for me. Happy New Year!!
Thanks for listening to my ramblings.
