Well October has been and gone and if you cast your mind back a couple of weeks, October was supposed to be dress month. Turns out, it wasn't :( I enquired as to the ETA (estimated time of arrival) of my dress when I ordered it, and was told it would be the beginning of October.
And then a few weeks ago when I checked in, it was going to be the end of October. And now, the email in my inbox tells me it isn't until the middle of November!
And the worst part is that they're so busy fitting brides into dresses that I can't try it on until the start of December. Woe is me!
I mean, its not like it really matters when I have my fitting, because I'm not exactly planning on wearing the dress before 30 January anyway. I guess I just got myself a little excited about seeing it, and now it's a big old let down.
Trying to find the silver lining in the situation, it does give me another four weeks to shape and tone up! I've been a bit slack in that department since I got the flu a few weeks back. Deciding to get back on the wagon and enjoy the warm spring air, I attempted a short run/walk around my neighbourhood on Monday. Ran a block, walked a block, ran the next block, you get the idea. Well that was a silly idea.
Turns out I have, oh, about zero aerobic fitness. I swear I suffered exercise induced asthma for the couple of hours following my “run”, coughing and wheezing all over the show! So I guess its back to my fitness dvds and the comfort of my own lounge!
I'm now counting down the sleeps until I'm reunited with The Dress.
30 sleeps to go!
