The Royal Wedding and The Exhausted Nurse

Yes, I'll admit it I got up at 3am to not miss a minute of the event of the decade. I have always been fascinated with the Royals. My grandmother had a scrapbook she put news clippings, photos and any other memorabilia that she found that had to do with the British Royal Family. Never a visit went by that I didn't sit and look at that book. I intend to ask her if she still has that book.

I got goosebumps when I saw Prince William and Prince Harry on the move toward Westminster Abbey. Kate's dress reminds me of Princess Grace's gown, very glamorous. I gave a shameful play-by-play on Facebook this morning. I am sure my friends will forgive me.

I love hats! I am fascinated by all the headwear that adorn the heads of all the royal guests. Some hats are definitely a feat of architecture and gravity. Some of those hats were just downright gaudy. Princess Beatrice's Phillip Treacy fascinator was definitely a show stopper (just trying to be nice). The queen looked beautiful in her yellow ensemble.

 I didn't realize that the area front of Buckingham Palace was dirt. One day I will get to see it for myself. It is now 6:30am and I have been up for 3 1/2 hours. I will definitely need a nap this afternoon. I am waiting for the kiss.
