I took work off today to get some things done for my brother's wedding. Thank goodness I did. I needed every minute and would not have been ready for the wedding without today!

What I accomplished:
1. Slept in (desperately needed).
2. Oil change (and watched a Patrick Stewart interview on PBS - awesome).
3. Full-body massage (a necessity after six months of character shoes, high heels, and high stress. The masseuse is a friend and came to my house. She is a miracle worker!!).
4. Made homemade peanut butter cups for the rehearsal potluck... unfortunately, I didn't have enough of some of the ingredients and they were an epic failure.
5. Grabbed lunch at Taco Bell (yaaaay for a meal!).
6. Returned a dress at Macey's and looked for wedding shoes, belt, and jewelry.
7. Dropped my vaccuum off at the repair shop (finally).
8. Bought ridiculously perfect shoes at TJ Maxx (Ridiculously. Perfect. Photos are coming).
9. Futilely visited Dillards in search of a belt and jewelry.
10. Bought two belt options at Nordstrom.
11. Bought jewelry options at Claire's, Charlotte Russe, and Chic Belle.
12. Had a manicure and pedicure (again, necessary).
13. Joseph rehearsal (this show is going to be FANTASTIC!!)
14. Hours chatting with my best friend and her husband (I don't get to do this nearly enough)!
15. Went to bed waaaay too late, but very happy and satisfied with how the day went.

Notice that breakfast and dinner were not on my list of accomplishments. Fortunately, other people had brought stuff to the pot luck at rehearsal and I didn't starve. Thank goodness for small favors! Also not accomplished: grocery shopping. I'm out of pretty much everything except lean cuisine for lunches. Sometimes I really miss fresh fruit and veggies and yogurt. Ah well, I'll make it to the grocery store sometime.

Phew! I hope I'm ready for the big day. No more time for preparations for any of us. Just going to go and watch my brother complete the best decision he'll ever make! I'm excited!
