Life just sucks sometimes.

Li'l sis had another miscarriage. She's, needless to say, not doing so good right now. The rest of us are pretty bummed, too.

But life goes on.

I'm not feeling so hot today. My head feels like a bowling ball and there's some nastiness brewing in my lungs. Hopefully it's all allergy-related, but I took some Airborne just in case. I so cannot afford to get sick right now. If this persists then tonight I'll be relaxing with a potent-tasting zinc lozenge/hot toddy cocktail. Yum?

It's almost lunchtime, during which I'm gonna run down the street to Kinko's and see if they have cardstock in the correct shade of teal-blue (and if not then I'll have to high-tail it to the nearest Hobby Lobby), then I'll come back and hopefully still have enough time to (re-re-)print my invitations so that I won't have to stay late tonight and do 'em. This time I have proof-read the copy like a proof-reading mo'fo'. Any mistakes in the printing this time will... actually, quite possibly cause me to go postal, so it's a bit of a risk doing them in the middle of the day, but we'll see what happens. I gotta get them done this week--Tess is coming over on Saturday to help me assemble and prep them for mailing. L'il Sis was also going to help, but it remains to be seen whether she'll feel up to it. Although I suspect she might welcome the distraction.

...

And now it's later. Blogger wouldn't let me publish my post before I went to lunch, so I might as well add to it. In case you were wondering, Kinko's has many shades of blue paper, but no cardstock. So I had to go to Hobby Lobby. But I still managed to get back in time to pop the new cardstock in the printer and produce my correct wedding invitations. Phew! If my co-workers only knew how close they came to seeing me lose my shit today....

Now I just have to print the reception invitations. They should be easy--I bought a kit, and it has online templates and everything, and I probably should have just done that in the first place with the wedding invites, but no, I had to get all crafty and make them "special." But they will turn out very pretty, at least, and it's not like there are that many of them to put together. And after this weekend I finally --finally!-- will be able to mark "invitations" and all related items off my To Do list. Hallelujah and amen.

Now let's see if Blogger is feeling better....
