Jerkface & A Wedding Dress

Ever have one of those days where you have to apologize for being a jerkface?  I read this blog the other day ("Can I get a hug?"), which I think summed up how I feel some days.  You know, where you have the crankiest day ever, take it out on the person you love, and then have to apologize for being the biggest cranky jerkface ever.  Seriously, read the link to that one post....it saves me the time from having to write it all.  Today wasn't one of those days....but we definitely have them.

In other news, I found out today that my grandma has my mom's wedding dress.  I didn't know it existed anywhere anymore.  But, leave it to my grandma.  I don't know how she's acquired all of these things of my mom's.  For instance, my grandma used to have the china that my mom and dad had when married (I actually know how she got that) - and she then gave it to me after my mom passed away and I bought my house with the lovely built-in china cabinet.  But, in the midst of the last 30-some-odd years, my grandma still has the wedding dress my mom wore....Labor Day weekend....  I am now diving into looking at different dress options in an effort to find a way to incorporate pieces of my mom's dress.  I just remember lots of lace from the one picture I have around here somewhere.  So, I re-saw a dress that I've really liked all along and saw how the lace could be incorporated...it's just a matter of talking to someone who could make it happen.

It's funny how fated I feel Crissy and I are to be together....and how my mom has found ways to work herself into our plans.  It just makes me feel like she's more present than I probably give her credit for....and makes me wonder if Crissy and I are even more destined for each other than even I would think.
