Now where have i heard that before...
i know you all must be sick of hearing this, but i have the greatest friends in the world. i realized today that i might not be able to be a bridesmaid for one of my close friends because i can't afford to get there. after working on the logistics all day with my stomach churning and shedding many tears, i pulled myself together, came up with a game plan, and called her to break the bad news. i knew she needed to know as soon as i did so she could fix all the stuff i just screwed up by backing out. so i took a deep breath, dialed, and then held that breath. i told her i had bad news, and proceeded to explain. she just kind of laughed and said don't worry about it. we'd take a couple weeks to figure something out because she really wanted me there. she was more concerned about making sure i was ok and hadn't gotten too upset by this. she totally understood the expense issue and is determined we'll figure it all out. i can't believe i have such amazing friends. it just leaves me speechless sometimes... and she literally left me speechless for a moment tonight (after which i profusely thanked her for being so understanding). so thank you, thank you, thank you, and thank you again to all of my friends... you're incredible and i'm grateful for all of you.
P.S. Keep them in your prayers.
