So we picked up Rich’s new suit yesterday (since he has lost so much weight he needed a new one!)… It really aggravates me that he can walk into a store and have an entire ensemble– jacket/pants/shirt/tie — picked out in less than 15 minutes, and have it tailored in the same shop, to be ready in a week’s time. Meanwhile, it takes me weeks of trying on every dress in every store within a 30 mile radius to find something that I will probably only wear once, that I will have to take to a tailor to be fitted, not to mention find matching shoes, bag, suitable undergarments, jewelry, etc. for!

Well, it is all for a good cause anyway… we will be attending my cousin’s wedding (Bryan & Holly) in Ohio in a few weeks and needed some new duds. We are taking a few vacation days, renting a car, and making a long weekend out of it. We have a new appreciation for weddings, now that we have gone through it ourselves!
