Good morning all!  Hope you had  a nice weekend.


My ds left for college on Saturday morning, arrived safely (phew, German autobahns with no speed limits make a mom nervous).    


Went out to dinner with some friends on Sat night to a Brazilan restuarant, it was different.... but it was tooo loud for good conversation and WAY too smokey.....   no laws on smoking in public places here and it just kills us : literally.


Weather is rainy and damp, makes my joints ache.... plan to wear a fleecy jogging suit today!


What's up with you all,  would someone pass the donuts please?

the lady called me back. she said with the type of dress i have, that's how the sleeves are - there's really no movement. she said she wishes she can do something, but cant.


so me & my mom are going to the other place now to see what they say....

just got home from the the other lady, and she's able to fix my dress!!


i wont be able to lift my arms straight up, because of the type of dress & sleeve it is. but i will be able to lift them up about 3/4 of the way, which is much better than only about half way. now i dont have to worry about how i'm going to get my tiara & veil on, dance, throw my bouquet, hug people etc


what she's doing is putting the sleeve back to the original size, and adding a little extra material in the seam that's under my arm. and no one will be able to tell that its there.


it'll be done for thursday.
