Sometimes life gets in the way and I forget to update for ages. That said, not a whole lot has been happening. I bought some shoes for the wedding, and Anthony sent me a rough draft for the invitations and I love them. Need to get on those so we can send them out ( Read more... )

I hurt my back and am stuck in bed today. It's been hurting on and off for most of this week. I thought I'd pulled a muscle or something, and it seems that our crappy couch makes it worse. Every time I'd sit down, no matter what position I was in, and I'd get up from the couch I would be in a lot of pain. But it always seemed to ease up ( Read more... )

Just so I can have it all in one place, I'm going to make up a wedding DIY to-do list. This list is separate from the things I'm not making myself that need to get done.

• table numbers - pictures of our favourite things?
• seating chart - clothespinned tags on repurposed window frame/mirror/door?
• card box - paint box, spray centre with chalkboard paint ( Read more... )

I had the day off today, and I called my mom up and asked her if she'd like to come around to a couple of thrift stores to see if we couldn't find anything to use in the wedding. She hasn't really been around when I've gone looking for wedding stuff. As such, she hasn't really been involved with my ideas for the wedding decor, and I'd really like ( Read more... )

Let me tell you about my crazy afternoon yesterday ( Read more... )

I apologise in advance for the amount of swearing, but I am too goddamn angry to censor myself right now ( Read more... )

YOU GUYS! My wedding dress came yesterday!!! I couldn't get down to see it until today. It was sent to my parents house because Mike said he really wanted to be surprised, so today was the first day I could get down. I found out that both my parents have bronchitis and are still contagious, so I really hope I don't pick it up from them. I tried to ( Read more... )

I really hate New Year's resolutions, but I think it's an idea that's doomed to failure. People want to make these big life changes in a year, and never end up accomplishing them, which only leads to disappointment. So, this year, I am not making any New Year's resolutuons. I am, however, planning on making monthly goals for myself. Something to ( Read more... )
