Holy Crap! Time Flies
I haven't quite decided if I am having fun yet though. It's all been happening fairly quickly. I got the wedding notification months ago... probably before Christmas. My Cousin E's wedding in Edmonton, Alberta. Roughly 36 hours away from my house. The big debate was the best way to get there and the cheapest way - cause I'm still on disability.
My cousin L, who lives in Hamilton (about an hour from me), and I decided to drive with her 2.8 year old son. This was supposed to be less expensive than the $650 it would have cost for the cheapest flight. However with the lovely gas prices now, and all the fun places we are stopping on the way it's gonna be more.
I am the only one going from my immediate family. My brother and sister aren't going out. My mother claims she can't afford it, but she will probably hit the casino a couple of times while we are all gone.
It's gonna take 4 or 5 days to get there, we are taking our time. I am staying with FF in Calgary and she is going to be my "date" to the wedding. I can't wait to see her. It's been too long.
Everyone thinks we are crazy for driving, and with a toddler, but we know it's crazy and are doing it anyway. I am only going so I can hit the JellyBelly Factory in Wisconsin. I love jelly beans.
