I Have The Best Sister Ever . . . But She's TOTALLY FIRED!!!

Oh. My. Goodness.



Oh. My. Goodness!!!!!




Oh. My. Goodness!!!!!!!!!!!




So, my friend asked me to come round to help her make her daughter's dress.


THERE WAS NO DRESS!

I got there, and my friend was off "dropping her son off at rugby." Uhhh huh. Well, she was, but that's not the whole story. She pulls into the drive and comes into the house and asks me to roll out the pizza dough, before we got started on the dress. Yep. Sure. Not a problem. I did that, and then she took me into the dining room and said, "Here's the dress!!!" Ummm..... there was no dress. Her daughter was standing there, with a camera. I'm looking at her daughter thinking....... something is clearly up. What's the punchline? What am I missing. And then, my gaze shifted, two inches to the left.






TO MY SISTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





The punk! she'd arranged to fly to England for my BIRTHDAY next week!!!! Rotten thing!!!! I jumped and screamed and couldn't speak, hugged my friend, who said .... "You shouldn't be hugging me, you should be hugging HER!" Hugged my sister, and burst into tears. Lois said, "See? I TOLD you she'd cry!!!!"

She's here for a whole WEEK! Yeay!!!!!!
