The Perfect Wedding Day? Sandy is totally happy for her mother, honest she is. It is her mother's wedding day, after all. Howard, Freda's fiancé, is a great guy.
But there are challenges. Starting with the ruffled pink blouse her mother expects her to wear. Ruffles! Pink! Sandy is a plumber. Everyone knows plumbers wear overalls. But on this point, her placid mother has proved to be intractable.
Then there's Howard's uptight nephew, Eugene the florist. Ugh. She'll endure him for the duration of the wedding, but the man's nothing like the heroes in the Regency romances she keeps hidden in her plumber's van.
And to top it all off, Sandy has to spend the whole day peacefully coexisting with her stuffy sister Joanne, she of the pearls and the sticky kid.
Sandy has no choice. She'll do anything to make her mother's wedding perfect.
Although with a family as chaotic as hers, the day is ripe for catastrophe ...
About the Author: Here are the basics: I live with one husband and two cats on the west coast of British Columbia, in a city that's large enough to have all modern conveniences, but not so large as to have hours-long traffic jams or heavy-duty pollution. I can follow a trail to my local supermarket, or be downtown in twenty minutes.
Yes, I spend much of my time writing (and editing, formatting, critiquing for other writers, battling recalcitrant computers, and occasionally tearing her hair out). I enjoy a variety of crafts. Recently I have been learning to play early music (Baroque and earlier) on my baritone ukulele - it works! I have studied herbology and homeopathy, hands-on and distant healing.
Diverse interests, all grist for an author's mill.
