New Year's Day was a really lazy day...mostly because I woke up with a bit of a hangover. The wedding was SO much fun. The ceremony and the happy couple were absolutely gorgeous, the reception was fabulous, the food was delicious...and the wine flowed like water.
I ended up wearing the cocktail dress, because although I assumed the shimmery top would fit, when I put it on…it was way TOO BIG! Thank goodness the cocktail dress did still fit or I wouldn't have had anything to wear. It's that stretchy material that lets you go up or down a size or two, and just shrinks (or stretches) to fit. I AM happy to say, the dress fit much more comfortably than it did this summer. I guess that's a NSV?
Hub has also been losing weight, and when he put on his suit, the pants literally were falling off him and the coat hung on him. So he had to wear a belt to keep his pants on. Still, he looked so handsome...but he definitely needs to get a new suit.
We left the reception early enough so we could get home before midnight. There are always fireworks at midnight, which B hates, and I wanted to be with him so he wouldn't be too afraid. It was fortunate we left when we did, otherwise the hangover would have probably been much worse. Still, a hangover of any size usually saps me of any motivation to do much and yesterday was no exception. I did almost nothing all day except sit on the couch and watch old movies on TCM.
However, today is another story! I'm just finishing my coffee and after I post this, I'll be jumping on the treadmill for an hour. I also have a few organizational things I need to get done around the house, plus take down the tree and put away all the Christmas stuff.
So, I better get busy…time's a wasting. Have a great weekend!
Sounds like you had a good time at the wedding - or at least the reception! hehehe
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great 2010, my friend.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
ReplyDeleteThat's definitely a NSV! That's very cool that your clothes are too big for you. I'm having just the opposite problem (!).
ReplyDeleteGlad you have a fun time. You sound very happy. I like it. :)
The wedding sounds like a blast - and what a start! Clothes that are too big - what an ego-booster.
