quickie

Just a quick update.
I found a dress. Well, actually Ireane kinda found it. I saw it and loved it but didn't even take it off the rack because I thought it was way too long. When Ireane got there she saw it and threw it over my dressing room stall, telling me to try it on. I did and it was a perfect fit - just really long. She told me she would hem it for me. I don't have a picture yet because Ireane is still working on it, but its really pretty. Sleeveless, black velvet, hugging me until my knees where it flares out and mixes with strips of white sheer cloth. Willy hasn't seen it yet, and he won't until we are ready to go. I hope he likes it. I know he won't be fond of the fact that its sleeveless, but I couldn't help it. Its not just sleeveless, its spagetti straps, and has a low back. But I have a wrap and I'll have my hair down, and it doesn't show any cleavage. Ireane also found the wrap and most of my accessories. She is a life saver!! And you know the kick of it? She's not even getting to go. Its very depressing, because I really want her there. So instead of getting to go to the ball, she's altering dresses and babysitting for people who are. She's awesome.
In other news, in addition to juggaling phisical therapy, preparing for the ball, and trying to ignore the fact my body is telling me I'm about to be ragging, we are in the process of moving. Yep, we signed a new lease today and are moving into a 2bedroom across the complex. Its only $50 more a month, and its HUGE. There are TWO hall closets, cabinate space everywhere, a DINING ROOM. Its awesome. We are partially moved in, and hoping to be done by sunday. We have some friends coming over tomorrow to help. I only found out we were moving yesterday, so I'm not packed at all. But we are rushing around and so far so good. So guys, when yall ever decide to come out and see us, there will be a spare bedroom PLUS the living room to crash in.
Well, lunch is over and so is my blogging break. I have to continue moving, then run to walmart, the to phisical therapy, then to Ireane's to pick up my dress, then home to get ready for the ball. Wish me luck.

$50.00 bucks more for lots more room? TOTALLY worth it. I guess I'll have to keep reading for the reason you are going to physical therapy. Hope all is well.
