That's wonderful wineallthetime! Glad to see a good update slenle Not sure what kind of suit you're looking for but I just got a Boden catalogue and they had some really pretty suits. Also, I like JCrew's (and I think they're doing 30% off right now) and I have a one piece by La Blanca that comes in a million colors that seems to be universally flattering.

FWP alert: I am bummed. I have been lusting after a particular new end table for months. We need 2 and they are pricey, and even with my trade pricing (if I order them through a wholesaler in NC) they are still very expensive. I've looked everywhere, literally, but have not found anything I liked as much that would fit the space, color, style, etc. So I wore DH down and he *finally* gave me the go-ahead.
We just went to look at them one last time in the furniture store, and I came home and measured, and FML, the top of the table would be taller than the arm of the sofa. I don't know why I never measured that particular dimension in the early stages of my obsession, but I didn't, and now I'm back at square one and so ticked at myself.

There is an f'ing travel warning for playa and we are going to the riveria Maya next month sans kids. Not pleased about this development. Destination weddings are such a chore.

Please show us these tables! Y'all don't laugh at my tables...I know I am probably one of the more traditionally-minded on here decor-wise I don't think this pic really does them justice. They're going on either end of my sofa and I have matching lamps that will go on them. www.willisfurniture.com/collections/coffee-and-accent-tables/products/square-sonoma-tier-table-hardwood-solids-and-cherry-veneer-finish-08-sonoma

Agree about destination weddings; I realize that nowadays people are so spread out that you're almost always going to have to travel for a wedding, but the exotic locales definitely add another layer or five of planning, expense, etc. Much harder once people start having kids. I'm such a scrooge now about weddings in general, though...my sister's childhood BFF is getting married and she'll be in the wedding party. TWELVE bridesmaids. Just insane.

I used to gleefully watch Bridezillas back when it was on. If you're going to destination wedding it just elope. We had a tiny wedding in my parents backyard. About 35 guests, planned within 3 months of the engagement, it went off without a hitch and was done with the reception and everything in a couple of hours. I wouldn't have done a thing differently and hope I can coax the girls in this direction someday. Seeing as how Cassie already does fake weddings and got a wedding dress for Christmas, I don't know if I'll be successful.

I think it's based in Australia and about couple who have super cheap weddings.

Our power went out for about 20 minutes. We ate dinner by candlelight and it came back on before we finished, so no need for the generator. Colin was too funny though, talking about telling his friends that we lost power for a third time, quite dramaticly delivered.

And the boy did in fact pull his pants down. I'll be speaking to the head manager when she returns Monday because the preschool manager straight up lied to my face about it.

Geez, I honestly don't think there's be anyone to watch the ceremony if I had that many bridesmaids! That's just excessive. I am over weddings too and I feel bad since one of my closest friends is planning one and I really just don't care about all the minutia. But I am excited for the bachelorette!

There was another pregnant lady in the waiting room with me. She took off her sandals put her feet up on the couch and her feet were disgusting. Why would oh do that?

Geez, I honestly don't think there's be anyone to watch the ceremony if I had that many bridesmaids! That's just excessive. That is exactly what I said. I just don't have that many friends. Are the ridiculous quantities of bridesmaids a southern thing? I feel like I tend to see it more down here, but maybe I'm wrong and other areas of the country are suffering from similar afflictions. My sister has been in wedding parties with 10 and now 12, and a girl from my neighborhood who is roughly my age had 15. Someone my H grew up with had SEVENTEEN...which meant 37 people at the front of the church. :eyeroll emoji x 1000: We couldn't attend the wedding but I doubt we were missed.

Sometimes I just want to ask people, "Pardon me, were you raised by wolves?" But my non-wolf mother probably wouldn't approve.

The waiting room was also pretty full so not the best decision.
