Last night, I stopped to pick up my mail from the townhouse where I used to live. I found that a huge box had arrived for Peter and I from Bed Bath and Beyond. LOL, I tried heroically to get that puppy into my car, but it would not fit at all. Opening the box and emptying the contents seemed to be the only way to get it to fit. That worked, and now it's back at our house. Getting married is like Christmas in September!

I went home last weekend to try on my dress and such, and can I just say, it's beautiful! Jeanette has done a fantastic job - truly a labor of love. Pictures of it will be coming after the wedding;)

Amazingly I feel very calm about everything. There is just an endless list of tiny details that keep coming up, but project by project, they are getting done.

Gotta run for now.
