MANDATORY WEDDING COMMITTEE MEETING!!!!! Tonight, courtyard, 8:00. No excuses for absences will be accepted. We’re in countdown mode, people!
I stared at my phone.
Raye came up to me. “Zach’s text?”
I nodded to her.
“I got it too,” she said.
“When did we get on the wedding committee?” I asked.
“The guys are going to get the rental stuff and they’ll set it up. You and me are helping Patsy with the flowers. Willow and Shanti are setting up the cake and acting as point people for the caterers. Jessie and Harlow are responsible for handling the bar. Joey and Gemma are bride and bridesmaid runners.”
She was set to keep speaking, but I cut her off saying, “I know all of that. And I know my assignment. What I didn’t know was that I was on a committee because I know my assignment, therefore I wasn’t aware I had to sit at a committee meeting to confirm I know my assignment.”
“Maybe Alexis needs to know everyone is on the ball,” Raye suggested.
That I could do.
“Gotcha.”
She took off.
My phone buzzed again, and since it was in my hand, I looked down at it.
It was from Mom.
Sunday family lunch! Can you make it?
Hmm.
I went out of her text and into my string with Knox.
Mom wants a Sunday family lunch. You cool to come out to them about us on Sunday?
I had some food up, so I took it to its table and got a text while doing it.
After I laid it down, I went behind the bar and read Knox’s reply.
Absolutely.
I smiled and texted Mom, I’m bringing Knox. Is that okay?
To which she replied, Of course, sweetie!
Then came, How’s he doing?
Much better. That was me.
I’m SO glad! That was Mom.
I know you’re helping with the cleanup of the wedding, so lunch around 2:00 or 3:00. Okay? Also Mom.
Sounds good. Me.
Love you, my sugar pack of goodness!!!!! Totes Mom.
Okay, maybe she was beginning to reach a bit when it came to her endearments.
