Dinner at the parentals

The planning is starting

I guess it has been a long time since I last updated or just a long week or so. Life has been busy for me. I have spent the last week and half looking at different places to have my wedding. Granted some places stand out more then others, but we wanted to check a ton of places out. Skinny and I have one last place to go to tomorrow morning and then our search is done. I know we are not going to go with this last place, since I have heard some bad things about it AND I have called them 3x to get information emailed to me, and still have gotten anything. I can only imagine what it would be like if we want with the place. Still we are going to check it out… just in case they have something fabulous. On top of looking at places for the wedding I have also started my search for the perfect wedding dress. Myself, Rands and Big L. along with Joy-joy went to the big discount bridal place last Saturday, so I could try on as many dresses as I could, to get an idea of what styles look good on me and everything. We were able to find a lot of stuff and narrow down the search a little, but we still needed to head to nicer places later in the week. Rands and Big L. also found some bridesmaid dresses they liked, I really thought I would want them, in red or black. But after seeing them in more neutral dresses, I think that is the way to go… since I want to do bright red flowers. On Wednesday night we went to the another bridal place to look at more expensive dresses. I found 2 I like enough to bring the Mother to the place and show her. Granted the dresses are a lot more expensive, but they are great dresses. We still have one more bridal shop to go to this Saturday, they actually have the most expensive gowns in town, but Rands was able to find a dress on sale there for her wedding, maybe I will have the same luck. I guess we will see.
Last but not least, I got my new position and I start it on Monday, so that means I’m spending the day saying good-bye to people and packing up my desk. I have only been at this position for a year, but I have been with the company for 3 years, so you can only imagine how much “stuff’ I have collected. I have thrown/ shredded a lot of stuff… but I still have a lot to move. Later this afternoon I will actually transport everything to my new location. I’m really looking forward to this new adventure.
