One of THOSE days!

Everyone has them! One of those days that everything that can go wrong does! Today was mine. Started bad, ended even worse.
Mom and I went to Target near Brooke's to get a KitchenAid mixer for the shower AND it was on sale! EXCEPT they didn't have it. So, we went out east to that Target, then Turkey Creek Target then back to the west Target. NO mixer! They only had red and silver... no imperial grey!
We meet Brooke for lunch and afterward, as we are completely defeated, decide to move on to the next gift. So, back east to Knox Center to Belk for dishes. BUT they don't carry the Denby dishes at all! Back in car heading west BACK to where we came from. Get to that Belk and they carry them they just don't have very much of them! Not even one complete place setting. So, we had to order them online and we have to pray they make it to us before the shower.
Last stop- Hobby Lobby. Have to get the ink for the pen to do the wedding invitations! Almost no choices- blue, red and black. No grey, not even a good choice of pens. So I spent over 20.oo and it's not really what we wanted at all.
It wasn't a very good or productive day. I don't know what was worse, the fact that I got so little accomplished or the fact that someone made me feel as bad as anyone has ever made me feel about myself. Oh, well it's a toss up but I think the latter would win hands down!
Here's to a better tomorrow.... Lord willing. Enjoy your Sunday.

The Shower

I am so excited about the very first shower for Brooke! It is February 26th and it feels to me like the kick off for the wedding festivies! I am going Friday to gift shop and me shop! Need something to wear to the shower! Well, maybe not so much a NEED, more like a want! Am hoping all this dieting will pay off and I will have gone down a size! This is going to be a busy month and I am sure it will absolutely fly by!
I know exactly what I'm getting she and Josh for the shower! Something that took me YEARS to get! Plan on getting all things needed for shower completely done Friday... and what I'm wearing! Hopefully that plan will fall into place!
I must also mention how proud I am of Brooke! She is becoming quite domestic! A great lil' cook - just ask Josh! :)
