I'm feeling a little down. I went to my job interview. I thought it went fairly well. They didn't ask a lot of questions, but I thought I did a good job with the questions they asked. They said they were interviewing five people and would be hiring two. I thought my chances were good, but I got a call later and didn't get it ( Read more... )

I was standing in our room a couple of weeks ago, and I suddenly turned to Mike, and said "Oh my God, it's almost three months until the wedding." I've kind of been in a steadily escalating panic ever since then. I think Mike's starting to join me. Mike marvelled today that we have less than three months to go and when I broke down exactly how many ( Read more... )

Long rant-y post ahead.

Four months until the wedding! OMG. I have a feeling I might start hyperventilating more and more. Mike told me as we get closer to the wedding, if I hear him playing Bob Marley that's when I know he's feeling really stressed. Still so much to decide.

( Stress! )

My mother has one venue that she really likes and has kind of been set on and Jean has one that she likes. Jean told us about this place, Lakeside Inn, from almost the beginning of our engagement. We looked at pictures and thought it looked nice, but at first I really didn't think we could afford to do it there. When we finally got around to really ( Read more... )

I feel like I haven't posted a real update in ages. For pretty much the entire month of January I didn't really visit LJ. I thought after the holidays work would ease up a little, but I've been working mostly five days a week all month which is good for the bank account, but I started to fall behind in things and couldn't catch up for awhile. But I ( Read more... )

Now it's almost a year until my wedding. Now we're going to have to start really making plans. For the last month or so I've pretty much put wedding stuff on the backburner. I still think about it most days. I've gotten accounts on both Loverly and Pinterest now to get wedding ideas. And singed up on this website The Knot. I think because of that ( Read more... )

My birthday was pretty great! First, I'd like to thank again those who sent me birthday wishes through PMs, posts, or v-gifts. It was all so appreciated and made my day ( Read more... )

I swear, I'm going to talk about something other than wedding planning here soon, especially now that we've picked a date. It's just been wedding-a-palooza here lately. It's been a little annoying because I've had a lot of writing to do, but haven't gotten any of it done. Last Saturday at the bridal shop we bought this wedding organizer, which is ( Read more... )

More wedding dress shopping. I had decided that I was just going to try on the final two, but I was looking through the catalog and there were a lot of dresses that I didn't get to try on. So I picked about four to try on again. But I when I went to the official David's Bridal website I got to see some pictures of real people trying the clothes on ( Read more... )

Ever since Mike and I got engaged we haven't really done much wedding planning, primarily because we haven't set a date yet. Mike wants to wait until we've saved enough money, or have some idea of what kind of money we'll have, before setting a date. I haven't complained about it, since I understand the rationale, but I have been really itching to ( Read more... )
