She was being persnickety that chilly December afternoon, a week before Christmas. Though she was always fussy this time of year, trying to make the house look just right, she was currently provided with a different and more intriguing agenda.Her tasks were many. She needed to confer with the caterer, purchase the flowers, and clean the house, plus participate in typical Christmas activities, with merely two days remaining.
Her own insistence to take everything into her own hands was to blame, but she was determined that the day be perfect for all.
Her daughter was finally marrying Lee Stetson.
