Days 91 and 90

Day 91 = no wedding. We were too busy spending the evening getting a stove and carpeting for one of our rentals and then relaxing and watching movie.

Day 90

Today was, well, pretty much all about wedding. I picked Misty up this morning and we headed to South Bend to get my shoes and so I could try my dress on. I figured that since I was going to be there, I may as well bring my dress and see how it was fitting. Got to South Bend, picked up Mom and headed to David's Bridal. Thank God I brought my dress and tried it on there!! Misty went in the dressing room with me and got it on me just fine. Of course, it's a pretty heavy and poofy dress, so I was holding the back of it up as I walked out of the dressing room. As soon as I got out of the dressing room where there was more room around me to drop it, the zipper pulled apart. Yeah, no good. So that's why I say, thank God it happened there. The lady from alterations came out to look at it. They'll either fix the zipper or order a new zipper and replace it. Basically, the dress was too heavy and the zipper couldn't handle it. =P I still have a few more pounds to lose before it fits comfortably, but there is no problem zipping it. Woo hoo! I just can't take a deep breath when I have it on. LOL Yeah, little shallow breaths really suck. Not so good.

And, I'm glad it happened there, because that means I don't have to pay for it to be altered. That's nice. Now I just have to keep working on eating good, drinking lots of water, and start REALLY exercising. =)

I also went there with a specific pair of shoes I was going to buy. Yeah, I got them on, and I just didn't like them so much anymore. So I ended up getting a different pair I liked much better. =)

Yeah, it was a good day. Now I'm just sitting at home this evening, waiting for Myles to get home from schmoozing with a vendor from work at an airshow on Lake Michigan. So I'm sure he had a great day as well...except now he's going to have "plane" fever the way I get baby fever. For serious.

Days 99, 98, and 97

These days were all the same. Different days, same discussion.

First up on the discussion board was shoes. Myles keeps going on about shoes and how I shouldn't need to buy any. It's getting ridiculous. I am getting new shoes to wear with my wedding dress and that's final. No ifs ands or buts about it. I just don't get why he doesn't understand that. He rolls his eyes and complains about it everytime it's mentioned. I'm thinking he'll just have to get over it.

Second up that's been bugging me is the bachelorette party. I left it up to Ann to handle, and it turns out, nothing has even been figured out for it. She says she has, but she hasn't even talked to my bridesmaids about it yet. But she expects everyone to fork over the money for me. Not fair to them. By the time she notifies them of anything, they'll only have two months to figure out where to come up with money for themselves and for me. That's not cool at all. And yeah, she hasn't even told anyone, including the other maid of honor, what's going on. Whereas Myles's guys started working on his right away. They've known for months where they're going and how much they all need to put in. I'm just really frustrated. Hell, I'm not even supposed to know anything about it, yet right now it's stressing me out more than anything. And I never say anything about stuff, because I always want to keep people happy. And I love Ann to death, but this is just really bothering me. *frustrated scream* It's kind of one of the reasons that I just wanted to go out Saturday night here in town. Then no one would have to really spend anything.

So, that's where I am right now with the wedding. So far, so good. I think I'm just going to leave the bachelorette thing up to everyone else. It's not my job and I ain't even supposed to know. I'll be happy with whatever happens. I'm just going to let everyone else figure it out and from here on out, I don't want to hear anything about it, good bad, or otherwise. I've got enough to worry about without being stressed about that. Like I said, I'll be happy even if we stay here in town. Though Myles and the guys in the wedding party are going away for the weekend. ;P And he has more friends than me, so he has Kevin, Alex, Brian, Eric, Jeff and Matt going. So a weekend is more feasible for him, since there are more people to kick in on it. =P

Next stop, getting stamps and sending invitations out and picking out flowers.
