I am excited to say that the dresses are in! I will be picking them up today. Plus we are having one more meeting with the florist to get that finished up. Yay! Everything is comming together!

Too Many Cooks

They say too many cooks spoil the broth. I'd say the same holds for weddings.

It is a rather difficult to plan what is suppose to be one of the happiest days of your life and remain balanced. Even when it is so important it is just one day. I find myself half thinking one way and half the other. Decisions also have to be balanced between what you envisioned versus the other people who have interests in it as well. Especially if their checkbook is involved. All in all, I would say it is quite apparent why some brides to be become unhinged. Maintaining that balance is ever so hard, and when there are too many cooks ... let us just say I'd like the day to end up appetizing. Thank goodness I am not as impassioned about the day as a lot of women are.

..now If I could only find some good songs for the reception. The one thing I am afraid of is that there will be an influx of tacky music streaming through the whole thing. ::sigh::

Any suggestions?

Hamlet, Act I

"Meet it is I set it down,
That one may smile, and smile, and be a villain..."

To explain, in a fashion; the quote itself is of course-as noted- from Hamlet. The title of the blog "borrowed" from Shakespeare, and again from Rex Stout as it is the title of one of my favorite books. It just seemed very fitting at the moment.

If life were a book, just about everyone would like to assume they would hold the role of the protagonist. To make the plot move, however, there needs to be an antagonist. All too often in real life, from scene to scene, one moves from one role to the other. Perhaps not even noting their exchange. Like Hamlet, I would like to set it down that one may smile, and smile, and be a villain...
