We went to see Shrek 3 today and really enjoyed it. It does, admittedly, probably help to have 2 under 6s with you, but based on the reviews I was expecting a lot less. There were a couple of genius moments.
Then we had lunch in Eddie Rockets, which was great fun.
Then I hit a couple of shops looking for a wedding outfit for a week's time. Spent more than I meant to (no surprise there) but I really love what I got. In my favorite shop East, of course: Dress Mine is the second from the left: the Tunis Botanica print Wrap Dress, just in case you were wondering.
This is the hotel where the reception is taking place: Glenlo Abbey Yes, would much rather be staying there, but I would have had to go without the dress to afford it, and probably the shoes too and it would have created a scene. No one wants to upstage the bride!
Ah - just checked the rates. Make that the shoes, the dress, and possibly the laptop too. Oh, and the new phone! Ouch! But lovely.
We are staying here: Corrib haven We've stayed before and it is lovely.
So really just another day but a family day, which was lovely.
Other than that, I got a bit of editing done on The Penitent last night. So much for a quick run through before I send it off! :D The end is in sight, I think, at least of this pass. I should probably do at least one more. Funny thing is, looking for just a repeating word means I concentrate more on the individual sentences rather than the whole so I don't get sucked into the story as I usually do. I found that idea quite interesting. What I'm doing is finding the word, in this case "was", focusing on the sentence and changing it where I comfortably can. Then I look at the context. If it doesn't work, I can always change it back, but I find I rarely have to do that.
