One Hundred Licks

Welllll.... To be perfectly honest, I used a wet q-tip to seal my envelopes.

I dropped my invites in the mail this morning.

That means we are offically at the 8 week mark.

Wow.

I'm Feeling Unmotivated

Is that a word?



I'm supposed to be spring cleaning as this is the best chance I have to get it done before the wedding.



I got my bed put up (got a new bed, anybody need a twin?)... On Thursday... And that's about the extent of my accomplishments. ETA: Bed is gone!



I need to find the drive to do this. Any ideas?



I have been cleaning up files off my external hard drive and I keep finding goodies like this one. Cari's photo from 2004.

From There to Here

Remember when I was asking why I lived here if it snows in May?

Four days later and the thermometers are saying it's 90 degrees.

How 'bout that?

Confession

I don't actually like fish. I'll eat tuna. And I didn't mind mahi-mahi. But other than those two I haven't found anything I like.

It's that time of year again

Here are the first of hopefully many!

It's Crazy Windy

And it's snowing. On May 16th. Someone remind me why I live here?!

Downstate

My Gramma, Kara and I headed to my parents on Tuesday night. We spent two full days down there and made it back around four this afternoon.


I can't upload my pictures to my computer because I had a dress fitting while I was down there and I don't want Aaron to see the pictures from that. It's a good thing I have two memory cards.


This picture I stole from my Mother. These are my bridesmaids: Cari, Annette and Kara.
While I was down there I also figured out my flowers. Or what I need to order, thanks to Julie L. So that takes care of one more big thing. Now I just have to order Aaron's ring and find a veil.

Happy Birthday Cari!



Can't believe you are old enough to vote now! I love you!

Happy Mother's Day!




Happy Mother's Day Mom! I love you and can't wait to see you soon!

This Morning

I finally made it to the laundry mat this morning and enjoyed the relative quietness there. I guess not many people do their laundry early in the morning.

While I was taking my clothes out of the dryer, a lady walked in and started talking to me. I wasn't quite sure why she felt the necessity to share with me that her water line is being worked on and she has a meeting to go to. It's not shameful to use the laundry mat, right?

And then she proceeded to turn the water on in the sink and dunk her head under. I realized that she had shampoo and a towel there, but no laundry.

I really wish I had my camera. Although, I probably wouldn't have taken a picture, but I was still wishing for it.

I'll have to remember the laundry mat as an option if my water is ever out.

The Number 2 thing That I am looking forward to

When I have my own house is having an oven that works properly.

Take tonight for example. I am making pasties, which are supposed to be in the oven for an hour. The bottom pan is completely burnt and they have been in there for 27 minutes.


Yes, I can't wait until I have an oven that cooks to the right temperature.

Just for Karen and Liz

I ran into Karen and Liz tonight and they accused me of never updating my blog anymore.


I know I haven't! But I do have a new computer now and I don't have that excuse anymore.


So I'll give you an update on the wedding.


We booked our honeymoon, as I said. We are going to Jamaica, and it's going to be a great time.


I have to figure out what kinds of flowers I want and I really have no ideas. I'm looking for suggestions. I like star lily's, but I'm not sure if they would go with the roses I had envisioned...


Still working on addressing invites. I think that after addressing all of them it really won't matter to me what they look like, I'll be sick of looking at them!


I bought a ton of forever stamps in anticipation of the price change.


Decided against finding someone up here to do my cake. I really don't want to have to worry about transporting it in the middle of July.


Put in my vacation time for the wedding.


Trying to come up with ideas for inscribing something on Aaron's ring.


Speaking of Aaron, he's reading this over my shoulder as I type. I'm not sure how I feel about that. No, I'm just kiddding. He's not a regular reader of my blog. In fact, for a long time he didn't seem to care about it at all. Now he reads it more often. I still don't think he could find it on his own though!


(He say's I'm right about that.)





Last week we took a trip to try to get pictures of the same dam that overflowed last year. It wasn't running as well this time, but it was still a photo op!
