A new kind of hangover

LOL! My DS gas is WAYYYYY worse than anything my hubby can dish out!

I get a sick enjoyment out of torturing my family  

 Nan - is the avatar your wedding dress?

Yes ma'am! That is a little sneak peak:) 

Had my first fitting about a week and half ago.  Have another one on Friday.  I did a great job at predicting my size.  It fit like a glove!  The only alteration I had to have was a couple tacks in the bust area so that it would lay nicely!

So excited :)!!

IT's beautiful - look at that waist!
My daughter and I were just looking at wedding gown brochures, as my older daughter is getting married next summer.   I noticed a lot of the little color bits added to dresses.   I think that's really pretty.   You are going to take your fiance's breath away when you walk down the aisle, Nicole.

Awh thanks Julie :) 

wait until you see pics of the back.  Its a decent length train with the same blue flowing all the way down the middle in a triangle pattern... its stunning.  the bridesmaids are in satin tea length dresses that same royal blue color.  I can't wait to see it all come together!

Oooooh - that sounds almost Renaissance in nature.  Can't wait to see the pics!

Just had to chime in with a quick funny story. 

A couple days ago, I was at work & had to poop.  This is pretty unusual for me, I had skipped that morning.  There's only 2 stalls.  In the far corner, there's some poor student (college) crying.  I felt bad for her (been there as a student) & exasperated all at the same time - I had to poop!

I sat down & waited.  Waited some more.  Waited some more.  I'm still hearing soft sniffles.  I finally think, "man, if you don't hurry up, I'm gonna give you something to cry about!"



She didn't make it out in time.  She left about 30 seconds after I started.

 LOL - I'm literally sitting here laughing out loud at that one.    I bet she's still thanking you for distracting her out of her melancholy.

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. LOL. I have tried waiting for people too, but there is just so much I can wait. This morning one of my co-workers decided to flat iron her hair and do her makeup in the bathroom at work. I went in and saw her so I left and held it some more as I did other things. I came back and she was still there! I hadn't completely "emptied out" at home because I was in a hurry so the pressure was building in my gut. Finally I went for it. I still tried to hold it while she was finishing up. I eventually courtesy flushed to muffle any potential sounds and let it roll. I guess she got the message, lol. She left quickly after.

As my mom always says (in spanish though) "it is better to lose a friend than an intestine" LOL! 

I am a wife and mother of 4 with the oldest 3 being boys (17,17,14). My "baby" girl is 11. Besides the fact that I have always been a bit of a tomboy, between her dad and all her brothers, she had little chance of being dainty, prim, or proper. She'll paint her nails then go play in the dirt...and ALLLLL of us can honk it up with the best of them. Besides, "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" right?Usually my daughter is to blame for clouds in the car, BUT...On a car ride home Saturday, my 14 year old son (who was riding shotgun beside me) ends up with a belly ache and had his butt trumpet playing some really warped tunes. Being only 5 weeks out from my DS, my sense of smell is still sooooooo sensitive. His stank cloud had me gagging and gasping for air as I was driving home. I was not happy. And, although I had no intentions of plotting a revenge, the opportunity was just laid in front of me. Here's how it went down...I drove my son to his bus stop Monday morning. Usually my husband takes him, so this change of morning routine had my intestines and colon bickering. As we are sitting there waiting for the bus, the golden rule of gas came into play, you know the one..."there's more room out than there is in." While it was silent, by the look on my sons face, it was deadly. He exclaimed "Oh my gosh Mom, was that you?" Before he could make a break for it, my finger raced to the door lock button. The look on his face was priceless. To make it even better...my finger then pushed the WINDOW LOCK button. Ahhhh sweet revenge! So Carrie, I guess what I am trying to tell you is... PAYBACK might be a B-eye-TCH, but it sure is FUN!
