I picked up my wedding dress yesterday!!!!
It was the very first one I tried on... I actually went in planning on buying a different one, but it had sold th previous day...which was a wonderful thing! It was ivory. When I tried a similar one on it felt like God thumped me on the head and said, VERY clearly, "NO IVORY!!"
So I bought the nice white one! :)
Every time I even looked at an ivory dress after the conviction, I couldn't stand it! Haha! It's an "Off the rack sample" - meaning I saved $1,000!!! :) :) :) A middle-aged man served me and he was so good. Old fashioned service. He told me NOT to buy anything the first day I went because that was the first shop I went to. After seeing the prices of other shops, I just HAD to get this one! If I didn't I'd end up wishing I could have a $3,000 dress but not being prepared to PAY for it! So I was glad this one was still on the rack a week after I tried it on! It was in my price range:) I love a bargain!!!
Went back to work this week...for the 2nd time! The first time I worked 3 days and ended up back at the doctor...my body decided to re-react to the wrongly prescribed medication! So another week in pain (swollen legs), and itching like crazy...after a week I FINALLY STOPPED waking at the "Itching hour" between 2-3am... I was addicted to calamine lotion for a week! The night I returned home from the doctor my whole body swelled up! I think I have a small understanding of what Botox would feel like! Haha! My lips felt really yuck! All I could do was relax and just WAIT for the rash/reaction to run it's course (AGAIN!) and disappear on it's own.
The doctor actually said, "Who was the idiot who made you take that and waste your money?!?!" So in effect, I spent more time off work dealing with the REACTIONS to the wrong medication than I did actually being sick! NEVER returning to that clinic!!!

congratulations. But I assume we can't see you wearing it? I'm glad you got a good deal. I hope you look beautiful in it.
Thanks Mike :)
Haha...no you will have to wait til late October... It's what I've always wanted...but I never thought I would be able to afford a NEW one!:)
Actually, when the man tried a veil on, my friend nearly cried! It was a great moment ;)
great moment- your wedding day will be that too! we celebrate our 34th anniversary tomorrow, and it's better than it's ever been, so I will pray the same for you.
