I spent this weekend in Winkler-town. My first full weekend off in awhile. Main reason for visit?: my 8th and final wedding of 2010! 'Twas for my old friend since junior high and one time housemate (aka "Spouse"), Heidi. It was lovely with a classic theme of black, white, & red. Decorated with Christmasy touches, it felt very festive and wedding-ly at the same time. It was an almost flawless evening, save for one detail....
Two minutes before I was to jet out the door to meet my ride, I heard a heart stopping rrrriiipppp. My skirt had split thoroughly down the seam in the back. Oh no....no no no no no. This only happens in movies!!! I looked at my mum with a look that combined absolute horror, yet a hint of hilarity. A dash was made to the sewing machine and the seam was mended in a matter of tops 3 minutes. Thank goodness for sewing machines. Thanks mum.
It was also a wonderful time being able to set up the Christmas tree with my mum. Like for many families growing up, it had always been something that we looked forward to. Having been absent from the home due to school/sports around the time that it went up over the last couple of years, it was nice to finally be the one to do it.
Now it's back to a full, busy week in the Peg with a schedule of shopping to do, movies to see, curry to make, & Bodies to view.
