quick life update

so I want to make this a shorty. here goes:

ROSES to all my bridesmaids and mom for putting on such a lovely bridal shower yesterday :) also, ROSES to all my friends and family members that came! my boss even came with her daughter. it was cute. waaaaaayyyy too hot (in fact, the sun gets a bushel of thorns) but still enjoyable. Andy and I took with us a full carload and left about half still at mom's... we put away everything but I have no clue where we will put everything else. we'll just have to Tim Gunn it and "make it work!" (speaking of which, PR returns this week!)

ROSES to almost being done with all the wedding planning. i.cannot.wait.for.this.to.be.over. I'm pretty sure if I was offered a ridiculous salary to be a wedding planner, even like a million dollars per year I would not take it, especially since I'd be dealing with other people's crap and bitchiness. soooo close to being finished!

and it's taking me too long to think up anything to for thorns so it must be a good day!

sionara!

just a lazy sunday sort of day

so i'm in a way better mood (thankfully) than last time i blogged.

so, first off: THORNS to living the married life because i realized i gained double the amount of laundry until death do us part... and if children are added into that... even more! not cool!

another thing i realized today is that i'm gaining a permanent shopping partner for the rest of my life. ROSES to Andy for loving and even asking to go shopping :)

and as for some of my problems this week, MAJOR THORNS to my father being a bridezilla and making demands, and actually having the audacity to say that this wedding is not my wedding but his... where's the logic in that statement? Andy and I are paying about $4-5,000 more than he is and my mother for that matter as well, yet they're calling all the shots (even the ones they're not paying for!). I really wish we could call it off and elope but it is too far in to do that now. I think I'd be completely fine if I never talk to my father again either because he's making the supposed "happiest day of our lives" completely and utterably miserable. i'm pretty sure there won't be a father-daughter dance because i can't imagine putting on such a facade in front of that many people for the lenght of even the shortest appropriate song. come to think of it, dad gets a thorn bush.

lastly, ROSES to our new flat screen tv purchase. at first, i was wary about it and thought it was too much and that our previous tv worked fine. the picture is a lot clearer and it's not as bulky (obviously). i did, however, lose the spot on top of the tv where I had a few picture frames :(

and the washer just went off. time for more laundry!

ciao bellas.

in a bit better state of mind now...

this is going to be quick.

THORNS to those who can't talk out their problems and just prefer to pretend they don't exist.

THORNS to the makers of ortho tri cyclen lo and causing one of my best friends to hemorrhage, seize, be in the hospital for about 2 weeks, and require at least a month of occupational therapy, more likely a lot more than that.

ROSES to receiving response cards back in the mail. love checking it and having mail other than bills! so far, a lot of people are responding yes and not so many no... may be a problem! but i'll worry about that when it comes to that.

ROSES to the following websites for being aaaaaamazing: sweet romance and perfect details. great for wedding jewelry and just if you like antique/very pretty things!

ROSES to Colby, my skinny kit cat, for being an athlete cat and making me laugh. his newest thing is to jump up on the divider between the shower and the sink in the bathroom and just perch there. It's seriously a 5 foot jump from the sink to do that. power to you, cat.

and that is all.

dream it all away
