Originally Posted By pennyring I confess we're having more and more wedding "issues" the closer my brother's wedding gets. I confess I looked for the previous thread in which I was whining and couldn't find it. I confess my mother now wants me to drive a 95 year old friend of the family 3.5 hours down and 3.5 hours back on the day of the wedding. I confess I told her via email that I literally thought the drive alone would make her ridiculously tired. I confess the whole thing is idiotic. It's like she's trying to replace dead relatives at the last minute. She literally said "Hilda can be like a surrogate Gramma at the wedding". That's just plain insulting! I confess my Gramma Wynne was one of my best friends before she died 21 months ago. Hilda is a kind, elderly friend of the family who we haven't seen, let alone socialized with in over ten years. She is NOT a surrogate Gramma to any of us. I confess ARGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Originally Posted By trailsend I confess I do not want to interfere, but pennyring, you better be sure your 95 year old CAN make the trip. I confess on that very important day, you do not want to be spending it in the ER because it was just too much. I confess can Hilda walk well and take care of herself for a good 11 to 12 hours (trip time plus wedding & reception time) that day??? I confess will you be solely responsible for Hilda???? I confess I'm feeling your frustration because I take care of my 86 year old aunt and it's difficult to do ordinary, routine things we take for granted.

You are such a positive role model for them.

I rode my motorcycle from Orange to the Pomona Fairflex where I drove the cars.
