Two Weddings and A Funeral

I am laughing at myself, by myself...so I had to share. The kids just wouldn't appreciate this!

I just sent an e-mail to a friend from long ago and then read of another friends' anniversary today...the two together got me thinking about the TWO weddings Eric and I were very late to - I know for certain who the one wedding was for, but cannot remember the other - will have to get Eric's input on that.
And then there was that funeral...but I am getting ahead of myself!

On all three occasions it was a matter of "Which church?" "oh, OK, that one" Ya. so NOT the right church!! UGH. Nor the right Funeral Home!!

The weddings we figured out before leaving our vehicle. One because, as we were doing our s-l-o-w drive-by, the wedding party and all the other wedding guests were seated at the reception, looking out of the big glass windows wondering 'who the heck missed the wedding?'

Oh dear me!

The funeral was the kicker though!
Eric used to work for a friend in construction in HS and dangled off of many a building in Vancouver...well, after being certain that he and his mother's stories were straight about what funeral home he fell off of, we headed that way.
However, we were not just attending this funeral, Eric was in charge of the music. We raced to the funeral home, saw a car out front (a light turquoise, mind you) that was the exact car his Aunt had been driving, pulled to a stop and ran in...things were already getting started and he shoved the CD into the hands of the person in charge and said they needed to play this! The man looked confused, but took it anyway...we headed to the chapel. On the way in someone handed us a bulletin (I know that's not what it's called, but I can't think of the word) but you don't read those until you are seated, right? All of the sudden I stop in my tracks in full panic. A COFFIN! Jody PROMISED me there would NOT be an open casket! And there it was - you HAD to go past the body to get to a seat! I turn around to head out and Eric follows...in the foyer I look down at the 'bulletin' and realize that this is NOT the person we are supposed to be giving our last respects to! Dang! Now we have to quickly march back into the funeral directors office, urgently request the CD back that we insisted he play and race around downtown Vancouver until we find the correct Chapel. Also, with the same turquoise vehicle parked out front!! So not our fault!
I hope someone else finds this funny!
