    Good - Poppy hasn't come into season yet so even if she comes into season next week, she would be unlikely to give birth to a litter of puppies on the day of my wedding

    Bad - Dumbleton Hall having promised me a room for the night before my wedding confessed that they are fully booked & I couldn't stay there.

    Good - nice hotel down the road had a space & is £50 cheaper for a room which they assure me is dead quiet & relaxing os perfect for an insomniac B2B.

    Good - Dumbleton Hall now bending over backwards to give me space to have hairdresser & make up for me & my girls complete with a complimentary slap up breakfast on morning of my wedding. Result!

    Bad - car tyre blew out yesterday on way to SW so I missed my weigh in

    Good - my dressage horse is going extremely well at last having come back into work after a 2 year break (due to my pregnancy) & I hope we'll be able to go to a competition in about a month.

    Good - my haflinger pony is going nicely so I can now advertise him as he needs to be sold to help pay for wedding!

    Good - I met the Downs Syndrome lady yesterday who is likely to be moving into my annex so I can care for her & she seems a real sweetie

    Good - my ADHD lady is coming along in leaps & bounds to the point that her social worker can't believe the difference I've made to her in just 6 weeks, simply by treating her like an adult.

    Good - OH has composed his Dad an email telling him to tow the line or not bother coming to the wedding

    Good - I've booked my boudouir shoot!!!

    Bad - 10th September is looming rather quickly now & I'm very behind with wedding planning. Must spend more time wedding planning & less time riding!

    Yay Friday! Have a lovely weekend all!

    Good: We now have suits booked for all the gents and I have a pic of him trying it on, yum!

    Good: we ordered our wedding rings and they've already arrived

    Bad: OH has desperately small fingers for a fella, size O!

    Good: we got 15% off the rings just for asking if they could do a discount which brought them in on budget.

    Good: the favouors have been collected.

    Good: we have had our first RSVPs, there'll be at least 12 of us at the wedding now!

    Bad: I have no accessories for my dress

    Bad: we still don't have a honeymoon

    Good: I have my interview for volunteering at the Olympics tomorrow!

    Good: the cub pack i help with has broken up for the summer so I have my monday evenings back for the next 8 weeks.

    I hadn't thought about it before but it's been a bloody good week Smiley smile

    Good - h2b has started his new job and his boss has said that for our honeymoon he can have his staff discount now instead of after the usual probation period, so h2b's going to get quotes for our honeymoon with staff discount! ?

    Good - h2b's boss's wife makes wedding cakes, so he's going to ask her if she can do ours *fingers crossed*

    Bad - our seller's lying, scummy estate agent continues to lie and now completion won't be until mid august, when she'd been pushing for no later than end of June, then today, then next Friday, then the 29th, grrrrrrr

    Good - a friend at work does hair extensions and says she can do mine (with human hair) for about £100, she did another friends last week and it looks amaaaaazing! Thinking about trying them out for my birthday so I can see if I want them for the wedding.

    Good - it's Friiiiiiiiiiiday!! Picking up our certs from the local registers that say we can get married and posting them off to the registrars that will be marrying us and also getting my little mini fixed at the weekend ?

    Bad - I appear to have somehow managed to pull a muscle or something in the groin region >_< WTF!!! It hurts when I walk, make sudden movements, some sitting positions... >_<

    Bad - Weight has plateued, which is ok considering how much I've been eating the past few weeks, but I'm sooooo bloated that I look massive 0_o grrr

    GOOD - My BM & Flowergirl dresses have arrived (one of my BMs and the flowergirl will trying them on tomorrow)

    GOOD - OH has repaired both our bicycles and we're planning on taking some nice bike rides together

    BAD - Been very naughty this week regarding food - curries, chips and pizza. Good job for the above!

    BAD - Other BM lives 200 miles away and will probably have to post her dress to her as I can't see us being able to visit her before the wedding.

    Good luck to all who are getting married this weekend!

    My mum always says to stuff them with newspaper when you're not wearing them. Not sure if it works and newspaper might not be the best idea with the ink - tissue paper maybe?

    Good - this is the first weekend in months were we have nothing planned and don't have to go anywhere so I'm looking forward to relaxing and pottering.

    Good - trying on more dresses yesterday has made me surer than ever that the dress I have chosen is the right one.

    Bad - have had to take down everything in my classroom as we're moving to a new site over the holidays (I know, not hugely bad, but it's my first classroom and I feel a bit sad about leaving it!)

    Not sure what else, it's been a really quite week for me!
