New news:
My mom let it slip...my brother's fiancee doesn't want me in the wedding because I'm "fat." How nice!
So, I still haven't been invited to do anything though the girl did call me about 3 days ago to give me bridesmaid dress instructions. I thought that was in very bad taste...she doesn't ask if I'd like to be in the wedding, she just gives instructions. Whatever. So, the plan is that I'm not going to be involved at all.
In fact, my mom and aunt have devised a plan. I have been in the process of losing weight for a while now and I am doing so with renewed vengeance. By the wedding time, I will be a petite little lady.
So, here's the plan (I promise I had nothing to do with it - I'm just a pawn in their plot!)...
My mother is making me an Audrey Hepburn-esque (the pattern hasn't been secured but this is the original idea) tea length gown in...WHITE! LOL! I'm for real. My mother is fed up with the nonsense and she wants to step on as many toes as she can.
In addition, she is going to purchase Manolo Blahnik shoes - and a handbag - to peek out from under the dress. (After the wedding, I'll donate them to charity so they can be auctioned - I can't bear the thought of having shoes and a bag that expensive in my possession!)
Last, I have been instructed to revert back to my old school training - I'm going to be as poised as I can be and treat everyone with a little contempt and a little sugar.
Well...that's the plan anyway.
