Writing a blog today is one of the worst days I could have chosen! It is finally 40 degrees outside, my coat is sitting at home, and I’m inside writing a blog entry! It’s that time of year when we all get that itch; that feeling of excitement and unrest waiting for the snow to really be done, and to get outside for barbeques and camping. This new year has brought about more new events in a couple months than I experience in most years!
To start out, our wedding is creeping closer and closer! June, 7th is about 2 months away and I can’t believe it! I never thought it would come! Lining up dress fittings, food testing appointments, planning showers and bachelorette parties-it has all been such a wonderful time. If it wasn’t already difficult enough to write this entry, my first bridal shower is this weekend! And, to follow that evening is my bachelorette party! Nothing too bold; I’m already a grandma so there will be no traditional hazing games with phallic pieces and embarrassing games! The theme is a little black dress theme and it is a perfect excuse to dress up with my closet girls and head out for a night on the town.
Through all this planning, my fiancé and I were searching the area for a place to live. Finding something affordable for recent college graduates just starting out in life is not always easy. And, to make sure we were in something before the wedding was a load of pressure that was not fun! We ended up finding a wonderful apartment that suits our needs and fits us just great! Of course we would love to own, but this opportunity suited us for this time in our lives. It is our first time living together and our very first place; needless to say it could be a one room shack and we would be just as excited! We move in next weekend. One busy weekend to the next!
After our wedding we have at least 10 weddings already lined up this summer! We are that age when weddings and babies are popping up all over! My summer is full of weddings, my fiancés baseball tournaments, and an aspiring busy summer for real estate.
One would think that I would be burnt out by now but just the opposite. I find I work best when I am busy and on top of it, I am having the time of my life!
