I am working on wedding dress bodice number two. I am also working on the house, and I just glued the drawers ot the desk together (they were all falling apart). This is lunch break. Lyle is teaching fire school tonight so I ahve a few extra hours to work on the house. Anyways, I have nothing exciting to say, and I have loads of stuff to do, so..later

This was my plan for the day - I lured myself out of bed at seven am with the promise of a half hour of computer time - It worked!
7:10 - 7:40 - comp, 7:40 - 8 - shower, 8 - 8:30 - sew (a bunch of ribbon flowers for my wedding dress so I have something to do (each one has to be hand gathered and tacked) between meetings), 8:30 to 9:30 - return phone calls for business, 9:30 - dress, 9:45 leave for flower mound - first meeting at ten, 4:15 - head home after last meeting, 4:30 - lay on couch and ignore phone, watch Oprah, 5:00 - make supper, 6:00 - plan everything that has to be done before wedding. However, at ten to 8, I am standing in the shower, and my cell phone rings (I use it to time ten minute increments to do my daily list in the morning), I look and it is Lyle. I answer it, and he asks me if I can come pick up Ashley from his work because he has been waiting for Nancy for twenty minutes and she hasn't shown up. So, I had to go get Ashley instead, and I ended up taking her to my first two meetings because her mother didn't call Lyle until after ten. She forgot. Can you frigging well imagine? The woman forgot her own child. Then she came to get her from me (Lyle refused when she asked if I could meet her half way) and Ashley cried because she didn't want to go with her. (Only because working with me is more fun.) Si then I got to feel like crap all day, and be pissed off at Nancy for doing that to her child. What is wrong with the people in this world?

lalalalaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I have a busy day planned today, and I owe a couple of emails. I'll have to do that tonight. I went to bed with my hair wet, so I look like a fluffball. I am wearing shorts to work today! I have five meetings between ten and three thirty. How exciting! (sarcasm.) My legs are peeling from a sunburn two weeks ago and I can't stand the thought of wearing HOT pants again. We went boating yesterday afternoon and had a ball. I made one out of three bodices I am testing for my wedding dress. I needed a zipper, so we stopped at Wal-Mart on the way home. I have to stay home all day tomorrow waiting for the phone guy, so I will try to do a bit of sewing on my breaks. I want to fit the bodice I choose so it looks good on me. My timer just went off, shower time. Love you...

Used to be, Loretta talked to herself. Now I just talk to myself. I am sewing and reading email in 15 minute increments today, because I am in a BAD mood. Part of it is that Ashley and Lyle want to go out on the boat, but can't go without me (One to drive the boat off the trailer, one to park the truck and trailer) and I DO NOT WANT TO GO! I mean, I want to go , but I have so much to do that I would have a crappy time because I have to finish this bid for Le's nail salon and start Charles and Patti's shop and pool thing, and make the wedding dress. i am taking Wednesday off (When you worhk for yourself it is even harder to take time off) and my friend Cathy is coming over (unless she has jury duty, she goes in Tuesday but she thinks they will get rid of her first thing because she tells them there is no such thing as justice) and we are going to work on my dress. Lyle called some friends to see if anyone wanted to go with them this afternoon, but no one was home. I told him that was because normal people were at church. I am praying one of his friends will call back and say they are going. The guy we met with on Friday night wants to invest $100 000 in our business, but we have decided that is a bad idea. All we want is a line of credit. If he invests, he owns a large part of the business and we pay him part of the profits - that's why I left Royal Seal, because someone else got most of the profit. And soomething just felt wrong. He did say that he would look at helping us out with a line of credit if that was what we decided we wanted to do, but he didn't sound like he really wanted to. Oh well, I have time because the insurance is still not set up yet.
Marianne called yesterday and she might come for the wedding!!! That is so cool!
