end of the week

It has been a rough week all told. I've been very down and quite tearful.

Wedding responses are trickling in. At this rate there will be about 40 peeps at the wedding. Which suits me fine. However, I think Mum would like more of the 144 invited to come. Perhaps it will pick up next week, once people can book travel and things. It's good that responses are coming, even if slowly - it does make me glad that I sent them off so early. Otherwise I might be panicking now.

My underwear fitting is arranged for the end of the month. Then my first gown fitting is arranged for the end of October. I'll get excited about that nearer the time, I'm sure.

I got everything together for the Forbes of Kingennine brochure in time. I'm waiting for confirmation that it has arrived. Then I can relax about it a bit.

Work has become chaotic and disorganised. I must sit down today and work out exactly what orders I have coming up and what work needs to be done to get money out of pending projects. I might just need to give myself some focus.

I have a plan (C/O Bethan) to track down some wedding planners and have them find work for me on a comission basis. That way some of the stress of marketing will be gone. I was musing over a pint on Wednesday that I spent most of my school years dossing of classwork and playing with props and costume for plays. I loved that. Must get back to making things, and away from marketing - which I am not good at, so it's hard work, blegh :(

Kev and I are hoping to go to a LRP at the end of Ocotober, Gideon the organiser, has not been answering his email of late. So I'm not getting too geared up for it until I know it's happening. Wales is a long way to travel if it turns out to be off.

I'm out in Aberdeen this weekend, shopping with A&C, then out for cocktails with M&A and A's sister.

And on Adam's day off, well, I haven't decided yet.
