Installing Indoor Cat Tree

[Aunty e]

So I've not been on for a bit because my Dad (who is in his sixties and has had Parkinsons for thirty years) broke his hip quite badly. He's ok now, having had it replaced, but it was a bit horrible and means he won't be mobile for a while.

 

BUT...

 

He and my Mum, who have been divorced for fifteen years, have decided to remarry. He's been living back at home for a couple of years now, but they've always assured me it was completely platonic. Big fat liars.

 

I get to be matron of honour, and make all the dresses, WOO!

What lovely news

It must be a relief for you to know that they will have each other for company,especially as your dad is not in the best of health.

 

Do you get to wear a nice big pink meringue dress?

How Lovely

[Egluntyne]

Cor...how lovely!

 

Congratulations to all concerned.

 

Bad news about your Dad's hip though....

 

I hope he will be able to dance with his lovely bride at the reception!

[Guest]

Great news Auntye

 

My mum and dad divorced when I was 15 (quite a few years ago) and got back together last year.

 

It was a big surprise

 

Neither of them are in the best of health but they are very happy being back together

 

Best wishes to you and your mum and dad

Chickens as Bridesmaids??!

Oh isn't it lovely when something good comes out of something bad. Smashing news Aunty E !

[Nicola H]

That is so nice and now you get to be a bridesmaid at your own parents wedding............

 

Hope you dads hip gets better soon..

[Martin B]

Lovely News!

[feemcg]

Thats lovely - I hope they'll be happily married.

[chelsea]

What a lovely story.

 

Very rare it happens in divorced parents (my parents are divorced)

Would be like "old times" if my mum and dad were back together.

 

Have fun planning the big day and best of health to your dad.

[Looney]

Wow, that's great news! How soon are they going to get married?

 

Wishing your Dad a speedy recovery.

Every cloud really does have it's silver lining doesn't it

Brilliant news about the wedding, such an exciting time for you all.

Dreadful pity about your Dad's hip though, I hope he makes a speedy recovery to full fitness

Chickens as Bridesmaids??!

I still have chickens as ring bearers in mind for my imaginary wedding but OH won't see it

 

Congratulations, must have been a surprise

[Christian]

My gran had a hip replacement a few years ago and said it was the best decision ever. A few weeks of discomfort at first but then no stopping her. All the best!

[buffie]

Sorry and then really pleased for you and your dad, what a lovely surprise

Thanks for all your replies! They're getting married in May

So not very much time to get things organised, but I think it's going to be quite low key. Just bought them an engagement card, which was tricky because so few of them are appropriate for more mature/sophisticated couples (no glitter for my parents) and also because, well, I was buying an engagement card for my parents. Wierded out.

 

Poor old Dad is feeling ok in the hip, but is still a bit confused from the general on Tuesday. Talking rubbish and sleeping a lot mostly.

[Helly Welly]

Glad your Dad is starting to feel a bit better and what wonderful news about the wedding.

[Budgies]

Aw, Aunty E, do so hope your Dad makes a speedy recovery.

 

And congratulations on the impending wedding - you must be delighted (if rather weirded out!!)

 

I do so like a love story!!
