Molting

So, as some of you already know, I'm doing some dermatological procedures pre-wedding. I've been set up with a program of 6 chemical peels (to permanently stop my acne) and 4 or 5 Fraxel laser treatments (to erase my scarring). I do feel guilty, like it's kind of vain, especially since my healthcare won't cover it since it's not "life-threatening." (They've told my dad they won't remove the large moles on his face unless they become cancerous. Woo.) However, I've had skin problems since I was 14 and I'm tired of it. I wouldn't still be dealing with this if my doctors in high school hadn't kept telling me "You'll grow out of it" and prescribing weak medicines. And mom did talk me out of Accutane because of the possibility of kidney/liver damage and depression.

I got my first peel on the 22nd and now I'm molting. It's icky, like a bad sunburn, but I'm excited. They set me up with a whole new skincare system and I'm very curious to see how I'll look in a month or two.

Oh! One thing wedding-related- I found vintage gold 2" wedges for $11 on Etsy. And me being cheap, and very excited to find low wedges, ordered them. The seller was out of Richmond so I sent them to my dad to lower the shipping, and will have to wait a week to see them. In all honesty I would have liked new shoes, and I did like the ones Brittany showed me, but I just couldn't pass up a deal. It might also be because I saw the florist's budget earlier that day...

In upcoming posts I'll fill you in on:
*Favors (still need a glue gun...)
*DIY Plans (me attempting a boutonniere, etc.)
*Visit to Butter by Nadia (hopefully Saturday)
*Invitation Update (what Brittany's been working on)
