One tired mother...in-law.

I am SO exhausted. What a long few days!

I'll write more about it tomorrow, probably, but I'll tease you a little about upcoming posts...

1. The wedding and details-including a sweet surprise from our daughter first thing in the morning!

2. The first surprise of the weekend for dd...my mom flying in a a surprise! It was a complete surprise!

3. The second surprise of the weekend...I attempted my first ever fondant cake for their wedding. Shoot. I think I'd only done one other layer cake in my life. So it was pretty much a first all around. All in all, I was pleased.

4. My sister's little ladybug miracle. It's pretty neat. :)

Right now...I'm beyond exhausted. I'm going to bed now, and I will write as I have time in the next few days. I'll post pictures, too. I promise. :)

Welcome to The Closet. Feel free to take off your coat, hang it up, if you can find the space, and sit a spell. I just love your visits. :)

Who's Who and What's What in Confession's Closet

**The Hubster is my wonderful husband, but that was probably pretty evident. We recently celebrated our 33th anniversary.
**Bugster is our oldest daughter, 32, who got married Spring 2010.
**Bubster is Bugster's 31 year old husband.

**Baby Bug is is our first grandchild. Bugster and Bubster's beautiful little girl.
**Frank is Bubster's 23 year old brother.Bugster and Bubster raised him the first 6 years of their married life, starting at age 14, due to a lack of parental responsibility.
**Calamity is, for lack of a better description, Bugster and Frank's mother. To get a better idea of Calamity and how the kids ended up with guardianship of Frank, click here.

**Hopper is our middle daughter, 28, who has severe developmental delays due to a chromosome rearrangement.
**Scooter is our youngest daughter, 25, who also has severe developmental delays due to the same genetic condition as Hopper. To read a little about the genetics, click here.
**Atticus is a friend of our family that grew up on the same street as us when the girls were little that is helping me to sort through the hoard and be my muscle when I need it.

Shredables - papers that need shredded but haven't yet met their demise.

I've decided I no longer need to attempt to keep track of all the paperwork that needs shredded, because, well, I'm shredding it. I've tossed countless white kitchen garbage bags filled with the shredded remains of documents over the years, and I've filled several black contractor bags with their remains in the last few months. I've made enough progress in the last several years with paperwork that I no longer need to keep count to prove to myself I am making progress. I am. Just ask our garbage men!
