i remember nothing of my dream last night. other than the fact that someone (i don't even remember who did it!) gave me the box that i could send my wedding dress to be cleaned and preserved in. and i cried. a lot. probably because i've been thinking about how my wedding dress has been sitting in our closet for almost 8 months, and i'd really like to make sure that it gets cleaned and saved properly. but alas, i don't have the extra money for something as "frivolous" as that.
see, there is this company (www.gownpreservation.com/ - they are supposed to be one of the best - that's why people actually trust them enough to SEND their dresses) that you can send your wedding dress to in order to have it professionally cleaned and preserved, and they put it in this special box. but, you first pay for the box (based on what your dress is worth, i believe) to send it in.
in any case, it was a wonderful gift. but a really random appearance in my dream. and i just had to share.
p.s. i am EXHAUSTED. teaching full time and working over 20 hours a week just. might. push me over the edge. ha! |

totally just had a blast from the past! i was on a friend's facebook page and was surprised with an appearance by the boy with the sparkly eyes. that's how i remember him. haven't seen (or even thought about) him in a very, very long time. 2003, i believe. i'm quite sure he wouldn't remember me. but... HA!
life is so funny.
p.s. i get to see an even more appealing boy with sparkly eyes every single day. what a lucky girl i am. :D |

| |  happy | ] |
the last few days have left me thinking a lot about how much i love my husband. and how happy i am that i have found a love like we share. i know that i get annoyed or upset at times, but he truly is the person that completes me. i also know that there are going to be times in our life that will test our faith in life and in each other, but i KNOW that we have the strength to make our life together full of love and passion. i am just so thankful to have found such an amazing man, that loves, supports, and strengthens me. he is the brightness in my day, and a gift from God.
i know that i'm getting all mushy, and seriously... i'm crying about it. but, i just look at my husband and thank God for the life that i am blessed enough to live. yes, times are tough. i am still desperately searching for a job that i can truly enjoy. but no matter what... i look forward, every day, to coming home to the man that i love and thanking God for my blessings.
( a few wedding pictures )
and to the past, i wish all of God's blessings for you. have a wonderful life.

i am incredibly annoyed this morning. i know there are a few specific reasons, but i simply woke up feeling this way. it just better go away, because i am certainly not wanting to feel this way all day long.
but, i've decided. even though i know that i shouldn't spend any extra money, i am going to do something for myself. and i am NOT going to feel guilty about it. because i work DAMN HARD for what i get, and i deserve to not be the only one not doing for myself. |

i am so lame. HA! |

i'm getting married in 6 days. yikes! but yay, too. |

i should totally be in bed already. but it's so hard to sleep without bill. even though i know he'll be home in a few hours, it's still difficult. first, to fall asleep without him next to me. and second, to stay asleep from subconsciously worrying about him being safe.
anyway. i just love him lots, and i miss him when he's not here. sappy, sappy, blah, blah.
and only 24 days left!! i have NO clue how i'm going to get everything done. particularly, how i'm going to get in the meetings that i need to have before august 7. i have only 2 week day nights off before the wedding. hmmm. and i'm running out of money. hopefully something will come through. it all just makes me super nervous. but i'm even more excited than nervous, so that's good. :P
ok. it's really time for me to try and sleep. night! |

|
| please, will you one time... |

i really wish i were sleeping. i just have way too many things on my mind. and i'm super emotional, so that's not helping anything at all.
i just don't know. |
|
|
| gimme a call if you hear something, okay? |

i wish i felt tired. especially because i have to open the store at 9 tomorrow morning. and then i've got a loooooong day. but i'm not feeling tired. at all.
but... i just finished printing our invitations!!! bill and i worked on them most of the morning, and i decided to finish printing them off when i got home from work. now i've just got to assemble them and address the envelopes. no biggie. HA! :P
i am so excited that things seem to be coming together. i can't believe that i only have 58 days left until i become someone's wife. wow. :) |

so, not only is my FINAL, FINAL report due tonight at midnight, but my partner is in the hospital. nice. i don't mean to seem heartless, but come on. i can't believe that this is happening. AGAIN. but, overall my section is done and i can't worry about any of it anymore.
i've got too many other things on my mind. |
|
|
| okay, check this out. |

i just had to update. my partner sent me AND our supervisor the report at almost 2am. so, yes, she sent it back to me. but not so that i could review it. and she just left in what i had written before, completely disregarding the fact that i told her i would be adding more. UGH! i sent my part to our supervisor at 11 saying i had to go to bed and didn't have my partner's section yet. i also included her email saying that she'd send her part back to me so i could review it all. well... i didn't get to review it until this morning. and our supervisor got it at the same time. plus, there were TONS of errors in it that i found. including incorrect and inconsistent use of spacing. that's ridiculous. AND she didn't follow the report format.
i am just so frustrated with her. the writing wasn't horrible, but still. come on. i don't even want to see our supervisor's response. |
