A FUNNY THING HAPPENED TO ME ON MY WAY TO THE FRONT DOOR

Hi everyone!
This officiating weddings just gets more and more curious as the weddings go by! And heaven knows this horrible weather hasn't been helpful, either!
I parked my car in one of the two driveways to the house where I was performing a wedding last week. The first driveway was packed with cars, so not wanting to get blocked in or blocking someone else in, I parked at the second driveway.
We still had a fine mist of snow coming down, and it was pretty cold outside too. I started across the front yard to the door and noticed the ground feeling a little wet and spongy under my feet. Before I could even react, my high heel was 'sucked' off my foot by mud and I had taken another step into mud which went over my stocking clad foot! I turned around and retrieved my shoe but looking at my foot, decided I was NOT putting it back in the shoe and ruin the inside as well as the outside. So I slogged to the door, semi-barefooted and begged mercy before I entered and ruined their floors. They helped me clean up and being the trooper I am, the show must go on!
All is well that ends well. I keep explaining to my potential and past brides and grooms how I am 'very flexible".......we had the service outside on the deck.........in the cold, but under a canopy. There was an outdoor fireplace lit, but I think all the heat went up and out. The Bride and I didn't feel any heat at all!
And I think I probably smelled like a forest fire for my next wedding.....they were very gracious and didn't comment.....
Just another exciting day in the life of an Officiant!
