I have to go to a bridal/baby shower today. I hate to sound so negative but I really hate these functions. My sister is getting married (again) next month and she had a baby 3 months ago so it’s kind of like a luncheon to celebrate her new union and the arrival of her child. I had no plans on throwing anything-the other girls in the wedding suggested some sort of gathering so as matron of honor and godmother of the newish baby I played along. And now the day is here and I don’t want to be bothered with it or maybe I just don’t want to “people” and also spend unnecessary money during the holiday season.
