Hi, y'all! It's been at least a few months since I've been on here, so I thought I would introduce myself again for the newbies and maybe for the oldies who may not remember me. I'm Brandee from Austin, TX and am getting married in one week to my best friend, my rock, my love. I've been wanting to write this for a bit but never found the time. Now that I'm on bed rest and am not allowed to talk under doctor's orders for the remainder of the weekend, I thought I would take a minute.
Thank you all for the advice you have given me and each other since I've been a part of this community. You helped me gracefully maneuver some planning ups and downs. It hasn't been an easy year. Among some of the downs: one of my bridesmaids had a reversal of finance matters and can no longer be part of the party, my FH lost his job earlier this year, and most recently, I was in the ER yesterday with a bad virus/bronchitis and laryngitis.
