BUSY, SICK, BUSY, STRESSED!!

Gah havent posted in awhile though a fair bit has been happening. I GOT my wedding dress, EBAY yes for 198 :) its gorgeous (wish i looked as gorgeous in the dress as the dress looks lol) but oh well. I need a corset strapless top too hold my boobs up lol and a hoop for under the dress and then i think itll look alot better on :) !! 5 pays till the wedding. and waiting on tax time or well be stuffed with paying for the catering. VERY STRESSY.

AND im sick AGAIN i tell ya i just got over a cold/flu and i have it again stupid weather, my throat killing me and runny nose, kids are sick too, im getting not much sleep being on tap 24/7 and WW feeding constantly through the night, booby boy to say the least, i am sooooo proud though as i have been demand breastfeeding now for almost 8 MONTHS woohoo me :) !!! going strong though would love him too sleep abit more off the boob lol.

I have ordered some luxury wool so i can dye it up with some landscape dyes for the kids, prob ER as i havent really knitted anything for her, though i did just start a tikki dress, a full length in the same colours as i did for my cousin :) !! well as long as itll go with the 120 ish grams of pink i have :) !! ....

there is sooo much i wanna knit lol but im having a slow knitty week or so after the mad knitting rush of last week !!!

Owwww was at my friend MK's during the week and she is lending me her veil as my something borrowed ALSO she remembered her mum had a huge roll of white fabric years ago and thank goodness she is a hoarder and still had it and said i can have it for 20 buks, there is about 40 metres on the roll so that should be plenty too cover the tables at the hall... now too figure the chair out.

think ive decided too have a normal cake not a wedding cake. its not really a big deal for me lol. ummmmm bout all mainly trying too pull the reception together and the final payments 2400 ish for catering and 400 for celebrants, have none save for these argh but i should get abit at tax time fingers crossed, and mum is putting away some money too. need too finish paying for ceremony aswell emailed them but havent had an email bak letting me know how much we owe.
