So funny!

It’s better than LaSarah, and you know how much I love LaSarah.

Halfway to 50!

Hehe, as many of you know, today is my birthday… yay happy cake dance!  All in all it’s been a good one, I’m now 25 years old (halfway to fifty) and I have some lovely flowers on my desk at work thanks to Adam.  We went and celebrated my birthday and our friends Sarah and Mike’s first wedding anniversary with a dinner at the Melting Pot this past Saturday.  Let me just say that fondue is always fun to do.   Corny jokes aside, I had never been there before and it was a lovely experience, I highly recommend it as something different to try.   We’re also going to my parents’ house for dinner this coming Saturday with a few friends (considering the wedding planning we’re not exactly throwing any huge birthday celebrations around here) and that will give some local people a chance to get to meet each other before the wedding shenanigans begin.

I also have to give a shout-out to Mel who made a delicious cake for Tuesday dinner in honor of my birthday, it was super yummy and awesome of her to do!

To make things even better, our friend Sharla will be in town tomorrow to bring her baby Jackson in for a fitting for our Spring 2009 catalog at work.  We went to Adam’s mom’s beach house in Pawley’s Island with Josh and Sharla a couple weekends ago and I’ve been delinquent in posting about it due to the lack of free moments in my day.  I don’t know why I decided to start my first blog in the middle of wedding planning, but regardless, I will definitely be posting some pics from that trip soon!

the un-post

This is not really a post… it is a brief late night shout to remind all of my lovely blog friends that I’m still alive over here.

It seems that the wedding planning that seemed to be so seriously easy and non-time consuming seemed so because A) I had been delaying starting some things at the appropriate wedding-planning-bible instructed times and B) I was blissfully ignorant of the fact that I was rapidly approaching the “LESS THAN 3 MONTHS LEFT” mark. I have now said hello to the 3 month milestone, I waved at it as it whooshed by a week or so ago. I must say things are still very under control and not at all insane, but I do have some decisions to make and projects to work on in the next few weeks. I think that for me, having a deadline that is actually visible on the calendar makes it easier to complete things without getting so easily distracted. Shocking, I know. I should also point out that this timeline is also mostly driven by my mother who, to use her own words “doesn’t want to be doing everything in August”. Take note that the wedding is at the end of September so there will definitely be things done in August, and probably September too. Being the good daughter that I am, I’m trying to do as much as possible early to ease my mother’s mind and come September I’m sure I’ll be looking back and thanking myself for it, so everyone wins.

Hmmm, other than that I have a couple crafty things in the works… to be posted when I actually complete some/one of them… I also have been seriously busy at work, reading my blogroll, watching reality tv and finishing my latest book. Gotta love those crazy Europeans.

On that note, it seems like time for bed again. Goodnight moon.
