Proof That The Wedding Industry Has Gone TOO Far!

Or what the E! network calls "Bridalplasty"...

This is a show designed around this insane idea that you must be "perfect" on your wedding day. Including and up to breast implants, tummy tucks, nose jobs, and any other plastic surgery you can think of. 

Now, I'm not a super model by any stretch of the imagination but this has gone a little TOO far. Every woman deserves to be beautiful on their wedding day and I realize there is only so much that make-up and shape wear can fix but where do we draw the line? I watched this show and I thought to myself that all of these women were beautiful and none of them seemed to really NEED the surgery, they didn't seem to have any heart wrenching disfigurements but they were still competing for these surgeries none the less.


Am I wrong here? Have you seen the show, do you feel that it's a sign that our culture has gone too far in it's obsession with perfection?

Marriage Advice

As some of you know, I work in healthcare as a Certified Nursing Assistant (aka: Professional Butt Wiper). The best part of my job? The AMAZING residents who have a tendancy to give some of the best advice, I was working the other day and being that it was the day after valentine's day my resident felt the need to give me a little bit of wisdom that I thought I'd share with you...

"After (dear husband) died, and I had to look around that house at all the stuff, all the trinkets and gifts that I'd gotten through the years. I realized that none of it mattered because he was gone, and that was the hardest part for me...living without him" ~Resident M~

I don't know about you, but FI Fishie and I fight sometimes and there are times when he annoys the crap out of me but if I ever lost him I don't know what I do. I told him that I plan to die first because without him, I'd die on the inside anyway. We may not have had the typical love story but, it works for us. Valentine's day may be over but I want to encourage everyone to tell the person you love how much you care about them...you never know what day will be your last.
