i sold it on ebay

My moms forum inspires and teaches me a lot of things. A few weeks back I saw a poll about what people have done with their wedding dresses. Most answered that they had it professionally cleaned and boxed. Quite a few noted that it still sits in the closet exactly where it was placed afer the wedding. My dress just takes up space in my closet - sitting in the gigantic garment bag that it came with. Then I got to thinking that I really don't need it anymore and I'm not really holding onto sentimental value with it...or so I thought.

I decided to list it on ebay and I sold it last week for a whopping $62.50. I was actually sad when I started boxing it up. I had to stare at it for a couple minutes before I zipped the garment bag up and put it in the box. I know it went to a good home though. I'm just speculating here but I gather from my correspondance that it went to a bride who wasn't well off. She picked it out and her parents bought it for her. Judging by the feedback, she loved it so I feel good that someone will get some use good use out of it.

Bad picture I know, but here's the last look at it.

And off it goes!
