And finally...

I have no words for today. So I'm copying the post I put in my wedding blog, the day after the wedding.

"What can I say for those who didn't come?
Hmmmmmm, it was perfect, more perfect than any bridezilla can wish!!!!"

But I will never forget the voice of my 7 year-old Godson in a voice message yesterday. While his mother was leaving me a message, he was reminding her to tell me "Happy Anniversary". He sounded a bit sad, innocent, maybe confused, but still he didn't want to leave me alone, just like all the people that contacted me today, somehow. Thank you!

A year ago on this date, we had a big party!!! My husband-to-be have already arrived and we went to my favorite jewelry store for us to buy our wedding bands. Then we spent the following days receiving all the guests that came from abroad. And today, one of my best friends decided to prepare a lavish typical dish for all the "tourists". It was great to see my friends from my country meet my friends from where I was living and also my husband's family. All together, we spent a beautiful sunny day talking in three different languages, eating, drinking and the kids had lots of fun at the swimming pool. All our three flower girls were there and I was being revered by them as I was the queen of the block! I arrived home to sleep my last night as a single girl. I was looking forward to spend the rest of my life with my polar bear, who would keep me warm at night during winter in his veeery cold country. And he was looking forward to sleep next to my cold feet, to keep him fresh.

At this point, I am very sad to see such happy days of my life turn into the saddest. But I'd like to thank very much all my friends that are calling me to give support. I would prefer to remember all this with them in a more cheerful way, if we hadn't had the accident. But I'm glad that they are still here with me. Thank you!

A year ago this date I was trying my custom-made wedding dress for the first time. That means I had already left the place I was living and I travelled to my country, where the wedding took place. Beautiful, simple and elegant. I never wanted it to look like a queen-type gown. I'm not a queen. I just wanted to look elegant. And comfortable! Never like these brides that can't move at the biggest party they will ever be able to throw, right?

Honestly, I wanted to have fun through and enjoy everything I could about all this, but I couldn't wait to start my life with him. A lot of people think so much about their wedding day that they forget to think about their marriage. I guess that's why so many couples end up separating.

This day I also had a very fun bridal party, where the gifts were all nice and sexy lingerie. Not stuff for the kitchen. A bunch of friends that I know since I was 6 years old came in and I had not seen them for the longest time. All these good memories, I have no idea if I'm happy or sad to have them, this is all so surreal to me still. It's like I don't even know what to feel, so I don't cry nor I smile.

A year ago, on this date, I was preparing for my last day at work. A job I really liked, but it was part of my "life project" to move to my husband's country. My boss lured me to a surprise "go away/wedding" party with lots of very dear colleagues and wedding gifts. I was happy I can't even describe. My "life project" started getting more and more concrete. At this point, I was living at a friend's house, cause I had sold my condo 4 months earlier. That was another huge milestone towards my life with him.

If only I could go back in time!
