So hopefully they won't happen tomorrow!
First we went to get the flowers. No problem. We get home and my mother suddenly realizes, oh your father isn't going to be wearing his robe, he's going to wear a suit, so we need another boutonniere. So I had to call and see if the lady would be able to get another one together for us to pick up today. Then we went to get our rings cleaned. We left them there and went to get our nails done. The nail place was closed for remodeling. So we had to find another nail place. Get that done and head back to get our rings. Nice and shiny, yay. Take dad's home to him, and start toward Springfield.
So we're on the road to Springfield and I glance down at my ring where the sun's hitting it on the steering wheel. I don't know how much attention you have paid to my ring, or if you've even seen it, but it has 70 small diamonds on it and 1 large one. So I glance down at my ring, and there's two holes where diamonds used to be! I let out this horrified gasp and my heart stops in my chest. I do a U-turn right in the middle of Highway 76, a pretty busy 5 lane road I might add, and haul ass back to the jeweler. I march in and state how two of the diamonds fell out of my ring in their care. She said, oh I checked them all before we cleaned them, so they're probably in the cleaner. The jeweler says he'll fix it. I was like, um, how long, I need it back asap, I'm getting married tomorrow. So he says he'll have it down in 30 minutes.
Lordy.
Fortunately, that seemed to be the end of the misfortune. We headed on to Springfield, where my mother bought us dining room chairs to match our legless table. (Yes, I said legless. It came from the Ashley Outlet for like 25 dollars.) Then I ordered pub height legs to go with the chairs. Then we had some lunch and went and got my mother a new dress, because she decided she wanted one to go along with the color theme. Then we headed to Rivergate because when I picked my dress up Thursday night, one of the two removable straps was missing! So they gave me two straps to make up for it and we headed home.
I'm beat.
Now I'm working on compiling a CD to play during the food portion of our entertainment tomorrow. Packing for the trip to Gatlinburg. Running through last minute details in my mind.
I won't get a wink of sleep tonight.
