Is there anything worse....

......then having to let one rip in a very very quiet place (like a library)?!?!?!  Hmmm.

2 Months Ago....

...was one of the most AMAZING days of my life! I can't believe two months have flown by already since I married my best friend!!! After we came home from our honeymoon we had a week and then we jumped right back into school, so things have been preeeeeetty busy since. I'm working and schooling full time (and somewhere in there looking for a new job since our dept is getting laid off) and B's school is pretty intense, so.....let's just say we are VERY happy this upcoming week is fall break so we can finally relax a bit (and maybe actually SEE and talk to our families?!?!?!) and perhaps I can finish Thank You cards.....I'm about a third way done.  That's pretty good......right?

There's a lot to catch up on...but I'll do that later.....maybe. I was thinking of switching to a "family" blog, but then I'm kinda torn because I'm not sure I even want to bother with the blog thing. Leave a comment and tell me what you prefer?

Bye for now.

Whew!!!!

Hey hey, it's been awhile, I know.  Life has been and continues to be crazy busy. 

Well, the wedding was fabulous!!!  Everything turned out perfect and we are so grateful for the many friends and family who supported us and helped in all sorts of ways.  It was a beautiful day all around.  Although parts of the day are now a happy blur, it was very memorable and B and I were both very pleased with how things just worked out and with everyone behind the scenes, it all went smoothly and we didn't have to worry about a thing.

 

As wonderful as it all was, I have a teeny tiny confession.  There is a little part of me that is a little....sad?  Yeah, so maybe it's that hard-to-please bit in me...don't judge, remember I'm only human.  It's just that....ok here goes.

 

When coming up with the guest list I thought about it for several weeks.  I made list after list (partly because I'd make one and lose it and have to start over).  I thought of all the people I've met throughout my life and of course I wasn't expecting every single person to show up. I hoped not to miss anyone.   Well, when the day finally arrived, it was interesting who ended up coming and who didn't.  A bunch of people whom I thought probably wouldn't come, were there.  Others didn't show and it was no shocker due to an already flakey reputation.  What makes me a bit sad though is the ones who didn't come, but I thought would be there.  Particularly those whose bridal showers, weddings, birthdays, baby showers, etc I've made an effort to attend over the years.  I realize stuff comes up and appreciate those who after-the-fact sent a message or card indicating how much they would've liked to have been there but for (blank) reason coudn't, but others, I'm surprised at the lack of acknowledgment.  Makes me think: Hmm..it's only like....one of the MOST important moments of my life....why weren't you there to share it with me?  It was eye opening to see who really cares about me and who doesn't.  That might sound bratty, but really I think that's what it comes down to.  Guess I know who I can and can't count on, eh?
