So I ask Miss Info what she's doing for the weekend. (not an unusual conversation for us on a Wednesday) and she tells me she's going to a wedding.
Me - Oh! Who's getting married?
Miss Info - Our old neighbor's daughter.
Me - That was nice of them to invite you.
Miss Info - Weeeellll... we weren't actuall invited since it's just a small wedding for family, but _______ (insert dh name) and I figure we are kind of like family so we're just going to show up for a little while.
Me -![]()
Miss Info - What? It will be fine, they'll be happy to see us.
Me - Are you taking a gift?
Miss Info - Do you think I should? I mean, after all we really weren't invited.
At that point in time I was rendered speechless and just stared at her.

May I ask when?![]()
Maybe you should suggest the Wedding Crashers DVD as a wedding gift?![]()
There aren't any emergency rooms in Canada, because of their health care system. If something goes wrong, you have to wait weeks to see a doctor no matter how sick you are. Her friends husband had a heart attack and she put him in the car and drove him across the border.
So after lunch, she tells me that she thought about it and went out and bought a gift. I naively asked her what she got...(are you sitting down??)
A 4 X 6 picture frame from the dollar store.
Now, if she was strapped for cash I would not say a WORD about buying something from the dollar store. But this is the woman who goes to Macy's every two/three months and spends hundreds of dollars on clothes for her 21 month old granddaughter. Never sale items.
Just when I think she can't surprise me anymore...
