final finish of the year

Sounds like the pups are all set for 2010, Taria. :-) Happy New Year to you and yours!

Best regards, Michelle in Nevada

Well, bless your heart, Taria. Often as not, I say something that I really hope nobody will quote. Today, our granddaughter/bride brought her exquisite gown over here for us to press and deliver to the church. I figured she and her bridesmaids needed a laugh so I met them at the door wearing a really big Afro wig and asked if they thought the color enhanced my complexion and was the perm too curly? Feelings have gotten so sensitive and schedules so hectic that the moment need lifting. That did it. Mr. Esther and I have never been charged with pressing a bridal gown but here in the country, we are all there is. Not to worry. We have the credit cards sharpened and a full tank of gas. If we screw up, we figure we can be a long distance away before they know we're gone. The wedding is Saturday. Please hold us close in your hearts and, if you will, up in your prayers. GMOB Polly

Polly,

We do all hold you close in our hearts, but will be sending extra good thoughts your way on Saturday. I'm sure the wedding will be wonderful and a good time will be had by all.

But it's nice to know you do have plenty of gas just in case you do screw up. Just kidding, you have probably already done a wonderful job.

Thinking happy, wonderful thoughts that the wedding day as perfect and that you and Mr. Esther won't have to take to the road. :-)

Howdy!

Reckon you should take a break and watch a few episodes of Bridezilla:

Or Whose Wedding... ... set the ironing board in front of the screen, multitask... Should prepare you for anything. Could help to recite the mantra, "At least we're not in Bridezilla Land. At least we're not...." At the wedding, IF a problem should arise, you can calmly & w/ great authority (due to your experience) say, "It'll all quilt out."

Good luck! Happy New Year!

R/Sandy - whose husband used to do wedd> Polly,

DSis's zipper down the back of her wedding dress broke as she was getting dressed. - Handy hint - have a needle and white thread handy so you can sew her in if necessary. BTDT.

Have a wonderful time at the wedding! I love weddings. I'm sure you've done a perfect job of pressing/steaming her dress! Did we ever think to dare otherwise?? =) amy in CNY

Well Mrs Polly!! My GD just has babies not HUSBANDS!!

Bless both your hearts :)

Polly, I'm reading this a little late as it IS Saturday but good thoughts and prayers have been sent that the 'gown press' was successful along wit the wedding!

Taria, I'm of the opinion that your sweet Georgia did in fact know what bed was hers :)
