Why? Well, because I still have photobucket.com up, and the way my life has been going recently I might never get another chance to spew pictures at you. Just some family pics from, or in some way related to, the wedding:
The Happy couple at the "I pronounce you" moment:
My father and I; I'm the one in the costume.
My uncle Charles is a retired career navy man. His brother, who passed away a few years ago, was an Air Force vet. I always wondered if they got into fights over it ... In the center is my brother Jeff, the hippie, along with his wife, Cathy.
My sister Tracey with her daughter -- don't look into Isabelle's eyes for too long! You WILL be enchanted.
Chopper the cat, my guest while the happy couple was on their honeymoon. Mostly I included this picture to ask the question, Why would the people who owned the house before me put carpet in a kitchen? :-)

It's lighting, mostly, but Charis does take care of his coat.
A person named Fred Markey scratched the date 1879 into a garage wall, which makes it one of the older homes in town. They told me it was built in the 30's when I foolishly bought it. Bleh. I like new, lower maintenance homes.
As for the carpet in the kitchen - yeuch! And houndstooth carpet? It looks like the lining for someone's raincoat I'm afraid. Don't you think you could justify replacing it with even just cushion-floor or similar on the grounds that it will be harbouring cat hair, and cat skin dust now - so it is in the health interests of both you and your daughter. See - a woman can always find an excuse for buying things!
That's an ace cat by the way.
I have all sorts of ways I could justify replacing the carpet; in fact, all the carpeting in the house should have been replaced many years ago. But I barely have the money to pay the utility bills, let alone repair or replace anything. Someday, maybe when I get my first three-book deal, I'll celebrate with linoleum in the kitchen and new shag in the living room. By the way, I love that description -- the lining of a raincoat. :-)
Chopper's a cat who likes to explore, jump and run. A LOT. How Charis can stand it in her apartment, I don't know.
Teehee, hippie brother...Sorry, it was amusing....
Carpet, in the kitchen? Were they feakin' nuts?
Thanks for the compliment on the glasses ... well, sort of a compliment ... :-) My biggest problem with my glasses is that I just don't like to wear them. I'm getting of the age that while wearing them I have trouble seeing things close up, but I'm too stubborn to get bifocals, so I'm constantly whhipping them off, Giles-like.
Yes, my brother was once a full-on, stereotypical hippie. Now he's a home owner and factory worker, hippie-like only in his looks and taste in music.
2. Your daughter takes VERY good care of her BEAUTIFUL kitty! Such a shiny, healthy coat. Hope your allergies didn't bug you too much while kitty-sittin'.
My allergies didn't bother me too much; I started washing stuff the evening he went back to his mama. :-)
Yes, I remember kitchen carpet from the 70s. Ours was avocado green aka barf green. Yuckity. Your's is just delightfully retro, though.
