Understanding Women

Posted by Eloise on 31 May 2006 | Tagged as: Uncategorized

Just a bit of fun

FINE
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
FIVE MINUTES
If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

NOTHING
This is the calm before the storm. This means “something,” and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with ‘Nothing’usually end in “Fine”

GO AHEAD
This is a dare, not permission. Don’t do it.

LOUD SIGH
This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A “Loud Sigh” means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over “Nothing”

THAT’S OKAY
This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man. “That’s Okay” means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

THANKS
A woman is thanking you. Do not question it or faint. Just say you’re welcome.

WHATEVER
It’s a woman’s way of saying *!#@ YOU!

One more thing off my list.  Haven’t decided what flowers I’m going to have yet, but have given some ideas to the florist.
I have now completed everything in my 5 months before list.

Wedding Shoe Shopping

Posted by Eloise on 14 May 2006 | Tagged as: Uncategorized

Mum and I went out on Saturday to Future Brides in Chipping Sodbury.  I now have a beautiful pair of shoes for our wedding, they are Rainbow Shoes which are all really comfortable. 

I nearly went for a low pair but they weren’t me.  Wedding Shoes?I may regret going for a higher pair of heels, but I thought I could always change into something more comfortable for the evening, as I can hide them under my dress. 

All I will say about them is, Rachel you don’t have to wear flat shoes now!!
