In todays update..

my dad hurt himself....pretty bad.....and has ripped tendons*sp in his back and shoulder area and is needing surgery.

He is trying to hook up with the sports doctor for the Chicago Bulls and White Sox.....and I think will be missing out on the NAMM show in California(Musicians event) this year....which sucks.

He is unsure about his trip out to Norway as of yet, but we will see what will happen over the coming weeks and if he can get into surgery and start on the path of recovery.:-S

I will be heading out to Chicago next wednesday with my dad to meet up with the docs to see what the dealio will be.

In other news, I am getting bridesmaid gifts in order, so that makes me happy, I might have found Jassen's birthday gift, if I can get a handle on it...

Also, My mom and I will probably be meeting with the caterers to discuss details on the 15th, menu, etc and so on...
My mom also is going to call the cake peeps today and schedule something with them...On tuesday, the 16th, I will make every attempt to book VU Chapel of the Resurrection for the wedding, so wish me luck on that! As that is a first come first serve deal....

They probably wont play the music that I would like for down the aisle,but things will work out.

Wednesday, I work....I will possibly be meeting up with Sheila and Julianne to research and try on more flowergirl dresses...I need to call up the bridal shop and ask them if my dress is still scheduled for the 27th of January to come in...I will get the colour off the dress of the flower to match with Jassen on his vestie and tie bits on his outfit...once that is sorted, that can be set up to be ordered and come in before the wedding....as well as the groomsmen, once I have the correct measurements and deposits, and Billy will need to be measured as well for his matching groom, ringbearer outfit....

There is ALOT going on...but I am confident that things will be sorted for the most part before I leave for the UK and then I can help on focusing on the preparations for the UK Reception, my Spousal visa, ask questions on the marriage licence that will need to be obtained for the wedding....I will have to ask plenty more questions...like how long it takes to file....on the monday...then schedule the visa appt in Chicago for that tuesday after the wedding, get my visa, be on my way possibly on that wednesday back to the UK, my new home with my hubbie.:-)

Crazy...
starting to feel my age a little...
not too much, cuz Im too much of a kid at heart.:-p

Wow, good luck to your dad. My dad's got a bad back, has been giving him problems for years and we still don't have answers to what exactly the issue is. He saw yet another doctor yesterday who thinks is a neurology problem. *sigh* Your dad is lucky in the sense that they know what is wrong with him and how they go about helping him out. I hope he's able to see that surgeon.

He has an appt next wednesday, so hoping that things will get sorted ASAP, as his muscles in his back, shoulder thingie, are starting to go into atrophe(die) and thats not a good sign.

Sorry to hear about your dad's issues.*sighs right along with you*

Seems like fathers(at least mine) have the tendency to get themselves in a whole world of hurt by the silliest things.:-/
