Nov 08 brides

[DanielleNDerek]

Hey my Nov girls. What's going on for the weekend? Im hoping fi gets the molding up this weekend so we can move our furniture back in the rooms. Then i'll be cleaning for most of the weekend. We have fsil's bday dinner 2morrow night. But i'll have my home computer back this weekend so i can download my dress pic.

Michelle sound like you'll get a lot done this weekend.

 

I've been tanning for almost a month now. I know it's bad for me but i was super pale (if i was a super hero that would be my super power Paleness I could glow in the dark - ok that's enough of me being a dork). So now i'm tan for my dress and will have a base tan for the trip so i dont burn.

I think I would have that power too. I definitely have Irish skin. I'm so white! I always burn which is why I hate going to the tanning beds since I just end up getting really red. I did manage to get some color on my arms and chest this summer, but that was mainly because I got really burnt first. My chest was the worst, which is why I think it has stayed tan for so long. It was the worst burn I have ever had. My FI always makes fun of me. He's Italian and tans so easily it makes me sick. Hopefully, our kids get his skin tone!

Hollywood Tans have a High Pressure standup. i usually start off in that one because it wont burn you as much. do have a hollywood near you?

i've been thinking about tanning too.... but i just hate tanning. i hate the smell, taking time out an already busy time to go tanning. bluck.

 

but i don't want to be casper in my dress. i should just start sitting outside all weekend...

Hey there girls. As for tanning, I am going to do that too. I usually go about 6 times to get a base before going on tropical holidays and then I don't burn as easily. I think I might do a few more this time just because I will only have a couple days of sun before getting in my dress, so I would like to be a bit darker than my dress. LOL

 

Michelle - I hope you can get your tan evened out alright, and WTG on the wedding stuff.

 

So 2 bits of news on my end.

First, my aunt's bone marrow test came back and the disease hasn't progressed, so she is still in the chronic stage. This is such good news, and now they aren't going to do chemo. As soon as they get the rest of the tests back, they will start her on an experimental medication which has been successful for 96% of the people that have taken it. It isn't a cure, as there isn't one, but it could put her in amost like a remission. This is the closest thing to a cure there is so far!

 

Secondly, I got a phone call yesterday from Larry's brothers FI and she complained, and bitched, and whined enough that they are now coming!!!! Yesterday she was waiting for him to bring her the $ and then she was going to go book. Thank goodness she called yesterday, since Bay Days finished yesterday, so my MOH was able to go and get one more pair of pants before they shot back up to $65 rather than $30! Although, now I have to fix the welcome books. I am glad that I didn't have the 'Meet the Guests" section done yet, so I just had to print off 2 different pages again and make 2 more luggage tags.

Hey girls! I too will be going tanning.. starting early next week. I'm pale as a ghost and I don't want to be burnt in my pics. We all know how horrible it is.. heh, but it won't stop me from looking fabulous on my wedding day.. and having a tan and no burns is part of that!

 

My shower is on sunday so I will post up after that as to how it went.. it will be fun I'm sure.. can't wait!

 

Erica.. that is great news about your aunt! And glad your FBIL and his FI are coming too

[EricaG]

I just looked and I only have 4 more weekends to work before we go. I start my weekend tomorrow, and by Tues night/Wed morning I will only have 3 weekends left! Ahhh.....I just got butterflies thinking of it like that. I better get cracking and do some stuff around here today since this wekend will basically be shot.

Hmmm, I'm not sure. I'll have to look them up. Ultimate Exposure is the one that is closest to me.
