the wedding is upon me....i leave tomorrow for Missouri. i think i have all the clothes, jewelry, shoes, makeup, etc to get me through it. I've never quite prepared myself for a wedding as i have this one, especially one that I'm not even in, I'm just a guest! however i understand the reasoning behind the big hoopla and am fine with it. i actually find it funny really and cute and so typical of this particular wedding crowd. as i sit here looking out my front window of my duplex and watch the neighborhood birds take a break in the giant pear (not fruit bearing) tree I quickly compare this wedding to the birds mating. now I'm not any kind of bird expert but i do believe when they mate beyond their call, they also push out the breast of the body to show of the colors of their feathers. So that is what we are all doing, showing off and looking good which at a wedding is the one excellent place to do that. I guess I've just never been too much into fashion and all that. I'm more into what is comfortable but also looks good. I've never understood why people buy $1000+ purses or $200 shoes. Well OK the shoe thing, they are our feet and we have to take care of them so well made shoes are I suppose well worth the cost but I limit my feet clothing to $100. Anyhoo I'm going off on a tangent here...
the weather looks to be fabulous and somewhat warm for November (60 degrees) so that is excellent news. I once attended a wedding in January or was that February, anyhow it was winter and in Chicago. snow slush is what we drove thru and walked thru. my feet/shoes/bottom of pants were a mess....yuck...
OK, so remember those birds i mentioned.....jhc.....I'm starting to remember that movie "the birds"....which has forever freaked me out about large grouping of birds....which is what I have outside my window....THEY ARE EVERYWHERE....oh wait....wheww something scared them away ......they will come back I'm sure. they love my tree all year long...its kind neat in the spring b/c i see alot of mating birds flying. i have only seen one nest in the other tree near the pear tree but I've never seen them in the pear tree but I'm sure I just am missing them b/c that tree is bird heaven!
Again went off on a tangent. as i round up this blog entry I must apologize, i haven't written in it for a while. its been busy and the time i have had i have been lazy about it. hopefully this will make up for it. i will report back next week on the wedding and if i gained back that 15lbs i lost in wine and wedding food. LOL....
Toodles!
