When we arrive home mother insists that I go up to my room and try on my
new dress. It is a lavender piece with a ruffled and layered skirt. The torso
is embroidered with black, silver and gold beads arranged in a flowery pattern.
It is a lovely dress but nothing to compare to that of the one I will wear
tomorrow night. I walk down stairs to show mother and she is delighted with how
well it has turned out. She informs me that I should start getting my hair
ready with Catherine as we will need to leave soon and she does not want to be
late.
An hour later we are finally on our way, with mother having made
Catherine redo my hair three times before she was happy with it. I had not seen
the issue but I usually never do. As we head towards the Winchester’s house I
notice that it has not rained or snowed at all today but that the clouds are
dark and ominous. I can only hope for snow tomorrow night.
