back from a break
so it’s been a while since i’ve posted, but i have an excuse…
i went home last wednesday to do wedding stuff (and to just take a break for spring break). it was great lounging at home, not getting ready till 12 or 1 pm every day, and being with the family. we did get a lot done though. we made lists, lists and more lists just basically to prepare ourselves for the wedding. no thought went unwritten! i started and practically filled a notebook in the weekend just with little notes and drawings of things to keep in mind. it felt good to be so on top of things…trying on the dress (i’d talk about it, but i am afraid i would get carried away with too much information!), allocating jobs, visiting the sites, listening to the music, stuffing invites, and buying the little odd necessities. it’s amazing how many things you have to take into account…and once something is decided on, another thing to consider is right behind it ready for your attention.
i had my second shower on friday night thrown by my wonderful patti and brandi. it was so nice, and just so fun and relaxing. although the first shower was fun and so special, it was crazy seeing so many people at once (many after a few years had passed). this most recent one was much more quiet and intimate…and lots more jokes cracked around the room. i am continually amazed at how so many people are so loving and giving to me and wil!
unfortunately i had one of my worst nights ever while at home, sleeping next to a toilet due to the flu (which i have yet to figure out where it came from). that really knocked me out for a good portion of the next day, but luckily, i was still able to manage assembling invites while watching a mythbusters marathon (did you know that is one of my latest obsessions? i can’t get enough of that show!). i thank god for a quick recovery; i didn’t have to fly home sick.
and then, after a long day of traveling and a delayed flight i got to see my love. no matter where i am at or with whom, i am always ready to come home to wil and have him give me a big hug at the airport. i can’t wait to have that every night of the week!
love to everyone…
