Turns out no one can outrun pain. Life is tragic. But it's also precious, and sweet, and extraordinary.

Today was an off day for me. It started out great.
Went to the dress shop with my Mom, Gran, Auntie Sharon, and Maggie for the zillionth fitting of my wedding dress. It's really looking nice. They didn't get a ton done since my last fitting, but the dress that was ahead of mine is done, so now it's all me until completion. Normally the fittings aren't so frequent and numerous, but I'm making a wedding dress out of a plain bridesmaids gown with the assistance of fabric, embellishments, artistic vision, and skill. It's saving us a ton of monies. It was Maggie's first time seeing my dress. She said I'm going to be the prettiest bride ever. While that's a bit of a stretch, I'll take a compliment when I can get one.
From there my Mom, Aunt, and I went to BJ's to look for some stuff for the wedding reception. I found some adorable plates and napkins in a silver and purple theme. I also found some very affordable plastic cutlery that's really well made/durable. We checked out some snack options that we'll be picking up next week, and did a bit of wandering around. Next time Chris and I get a discount membership offer for BJ's I believe we may sign up.
