Day 4 has arrived, and has brought with it another Heat Advisory from the National Weather Service.- the index is supposed to reach 105 some time this afternoon, which means I'll have another excuse to hit the pool.

Even though I barely cleared the 1000 word a day hurdle for the novel, I felt good about those words. There was a new character introduced, and along with his introduction, I propelled one of the themes of the story. I took my time and plotted out how that double edged introduction should be handled and ended up with a damn good passage; even if I say so myself.

Also, I took the time to sketch out the bones for my next sonnet to be published at EWN. This next poem will most likely be very close to conventional, as far as the structure and theme of a typical sonnet is concerned. Then there was the matter of extended 'me' time at the pool, reading poetry written by Paul Laurence Dunbar.

Today- the sky is a hazy blue, with the only cloud being a touch of a brush tip dabbed in off-white. I hear Zep playing on the deck, I feel the brats in the fridge, my Nook is at hand, and the mercury is rising.

Danger, Will Robinson!

How is your day going so far?

Enjoy!

When to start wedding dress shopping

Wednesday, 10 April 2013

I feel like its a silly question lol, but when did you ladies start dress shopping?
Just to ensure you have enough time to allow for alterations and I guess to allow time to order things in...other things I havent considered, etc haha. Whats a good time frame to work with?
Ive been engaged since late Aug 2012, and the wedding will be Feb 2014, at first I thought id wait until about mid 2013 before I started thinking about it. But time flew by and im getting excited!
I have in my mind the type of dress shape and silhouette. I have began to search the style online and I have a magazine clipping of what im looking for too.
So do you think its still a litte early for me to organise the first dress shopping expedition? Or wait a few more months?
Also, has anyone had experiences with buying wedding dresses in dudool.com? I fell in love with one of their dresses lol. I love such style.

Thanks, any advice, stories or discussion on your first dress shopping expeditions welcomed!

Help me choose my dress!!

Saturday, 06 April 2013

Hey ladies

I have done a bit of shopping around and internet hunting and found I really really love the strapless wedding dresses. I have found two in an online shop named Dudool. I love both for different reasons and need to choose one in the next week or two.

These are the two:

They are pretty different but both so feminine and lovely! Let me know your thoughts. Any feedback would be great!
