It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness

I know it isn't my norm of ten days later.

I am tapped. I feel like my head is full of sand. Tip me over and you could fill a sandbox.

Right now all I want is to just sing along. Which is funny that is what I did for part of the day. I drove to P.'s. And all I did on the drive was sing along.

I'm itching to travel some more. B and I will travel shortly. A short walk down the aisle and all the way to the Bahamas. : D Plans are coming together fairly nicely. There has been a few hiccups. I was telling a coworker the other day some of the things I have planned. She said that it sounded thoughtful and fun. Which I think describes it pretty well. Describes me pretty well too.

I would ask for many prayers for my friend, Janene. She has had some pretty bad news recently and I just wish her and her family peace and strength. All I can hope for is to trust that the pain will ease and to have faith that God's will be done even in times of sorrow and hurt. Sorry, cry break.... it is wretched being soft hearted sometimes.

Good night and light away!

I love Mark

Guess who was so great this weekend when I was down with this horrible cold?

B!

He has already started taking this "in sickness and health" thing seriously.

I love you, Mark!

(And in case you are confused, B stands for Beloved which stands for Mark. I explained it a long time ago when the whole initial thing got mondo confusing).

Good night and may we all find or have already found our own B.

Not even a half step

Well, we welcomed in 2008 by dog sitting J's dogs and staying overnight at her house. B. got to play his very first game of pool and we had a great time listening to her jukebox. Caesar was so glad to see someone though. He spent the first ten minutes of us being there just racing around the room and around us.

And we missed midnight by like two minutes. Apparently it takes more than two minutes to get champagne open and poured into glasses.


But as lovely as the night was, the bed was beyond horrible. It reminded me of the Princess and the Pea. We just couldn't seem to get comfortable. B. seemed to feel it most of all. It was a lovely comforter and pillows but there were like five billion pillows... okay so it was more like six. But half were beaded and fringed.

So here we are. One month and one day until the wedding. Everyone keeps asking if I am nervous. I wasn't until they started asking. But I think it is going to be a good wedding and an awesome marriage. The half step almost taken... the funny thing is now I am now getting the kids questions too.

Wait a second. I'm not even married yet. I keep telling everyone I want 3 years at least with it just being B and I. I want some time to get used to be married. I certainly didn't rush into the marriage. Why would I rush into kids? I know him as my boyfriend, my finacee. I want to get to know him as my husband before we add more to the mix. I'm still adjusting to have a joint checking account with him. I'm imagining that kids might be an even more interesting adjustment LOL.

Good day and three years, people!
