Warning: Covid
Lord almight!!!
I KNOW there are bigger things in the world. In fact, I am very mad on behalf of everyone who is now in the hospital thanks to the negligence of our governor and the fact that people are acting like nothing is wrong. No one in Texas is wearing masks really. It's just a lot of free for all, and now we're paying the price for the fact that we couldn't keep everyone home or wear masks.
My husband and I were originally scheduled for April 4th, and everything was paid off. We were all set, then the country shut down in March. Seeing the writing on the wall, we moved our date to August. At the time, we couldn't imagine waiting a year or the country staying locked down that long. Ha. We were young and naive.
Now texas will probably go into a lockdown soon. The biggest hospital in Houston is at ICU capacity. We are in Dallas, but my Houston family basically said they won't come. My mom will come because she's my mom, but her whole family is a big nada. And they're the top of the iceberg. The venue won't let us postpone right now.
BUT. With everything shutting down, we may be able to postpone the big wedding until next April, our one year anniversary. There are so much bigger things than our day, but we're still sobbing. It's not fair. Idk what else we can do. Right now we're waiting for the stay at home order and preparing for another lockdown. And for the venue to maybe let us postpone. Just ugh. I would rather cancel at this point, but I still want my memories with my family.
