Great Intentions

HA ok so I've decided to join Weight Watchers... now that will happen today or tomorrow or friday I don't know, depends on my schedule. So at least it's a good thought in my mind... Gotta tell ya why... in 6 weeks I am in a wedding with a bunch of 20 something year olds... I'm in my 40 somethings... maid of honor... grey hair (of course that I color myself - rather Dave does for me) and LAST NIGHT decided that the dress I bought was NOT my size.
Great intentions though... when I bought the dress at a size 13, again great intentions. I've always had great intentions on my weight, I'm always going to start tomorrow, get "skinny", look fabulous... but in reality I'm a size 20. Now, they didn't have the dress in a 20 it was either an 18 or a 22 AND it had to be ordered. So I figured I'd be less optomistic for once and got the 22 and will have it sized. I wanted to cry... but instead I went out for Italian food and two vodka drinks- hence the size 20.

The dress will be in Sept 29 - um, remember the wedding... well that's October 9th... I have NOT told the Bride, I think that she would strangle me and I wouldn't blame her. Worse case, I duct tape it to myself, no one would be the wiser. Doesn't duct tape work for everything? I think I've seen they actually make dresses out of it.. hmmm maybe I should of done that and I would of never of known what size I actually am and been happy with my Italian food and vodka drinks.
