Anniversaries...

So....... I have returned from the dark side with more tales to tell. Tim and I just celebrated our 3rd anniversary of the day we met. That was yesterday. 3 whole years that we have been together. Joys and sorrows, bad times and good. And come May, we will have been "official" for a whole year. Funny, when you think about how long it feels like we've been together. We're like two halves of the same whole, him and I. Isn't that how it's supposed to be when you've the one? I think it is and that's all that matters, right? Anywho, just thought I'd share that with you three.

I love you, Daddy As always, I hope you're having a great day!

I am horrible, aren't I?

I know, I know. I don't post nearly often enough to make the cut as "Blogger of the year" but what my blog lacks in frequency, it shall make up for in content.

*AHEM* I have an announcement... Well, a couple actually. First: I may be returning to school. Soon. For those of you who don't know, I went crazy last year. Lost my flipping marbles... Found almost all of them, and am still here... But I think I might be ready to go back to school. I still have to discuss it with my counselor, of course, but if he agrees with me that I might be ready, I may be starting as soon as this next quarter. Won't that be exciting?

Second: We have a new addition to the family.(See above) His name is "Bug" and he is a 5 month old black and white(tuxedo) cat. Adorable animal. Playful, cuddly... Everything you'd want in a kitten. I went and picked him up this morning and have never been happier to get up at 6 am in my life.

So anyway, I think that pretty much sums it up. I just thought I would let you three know, and you know who you are, as you are the ones in my life I know I can always count on to be there if I feel myself teetering on the edge of another breakdown. I love you all.

My love to you, daddy. I hope you are having a blessed day!

randomness

I know, I know. Again I am remiss in my blogging duties. I can only ask for your forgiveness, as I am quite busy. Baking and cooking and becoming the domestic goddess I always knew was in there somewhere. Unfortunately, it has also taken it's toll on my waistline, but I enjoy it. Plus, there exists an adage that says "never trust a skinny cook," to which I firmly adhere.


Shoot from the hip, is another one. And here it is... Well here it was supposed to be, but unfortunately, if I upload it, it will be at the top. A loaf of banana-nut bread that absolutely melted in our mouths... Delicious.

Wedding Randomness.

Here are some snippets from the wedding. I think they captured the essence of the whole thing quite nicely. It was very relaxed and family-esque. Hope you enjoy them...

Post-wedding update...

You ever have one of those days when it just doesn't pay to get out of bed? Well, that's what my day has been like. And I'm sorry dad, but this is not about our talk last night. This is about what happened after you had already gone. Probably about the time you got to Seattle and called me.


I have very few friends, and the ones I do have, I think of as family. One of these friends, I won't name here, I used to look upon as my own mother. This "friend" today, decided to go off on me about something that I was not made privy to prior to her going off, and so I got the brunt of her frustration with someone else. Suffice to say, I do believe it to be the end of this particular friendship, as I will not stand idly by and bear the brunt of someone else's frustration and have them decimate my already fragile balance with my sensibilities. I can't do it. So, I have decided to take some time to myself, and my family, and regain that sense of balance I had before this fiasco.

As always daddy, I love you, and I hope that Pike Place Market was fun. Here's wishing you safe travels.

Tomorrow is the BIG DAY!!!

I am so excited. I get married tomorrow. Yes, that's right! I, the independent one, am getting hitched! I cannot believe it. I never thought I would live this long, let alone get married. It's not going to be much, just a simple backyard barbecue, that just so happens to be a wedding. I think it is going to be great... I am so anxious!

Ok so I spaced...

Yes, Folks! That is most definitely my sheepish grin, for you see, I spaced blogging most of last month. I know, I know, I have been remiss in my blogging duties. Feel free to chastise me for my egregious lack of manners, but I have been quite preoccupied. You see, my wedding is in 15 days and counting. There is much to do this month as well, but I felt that, as it is May Day, I would come and post to all three of you who follow my blog to let you know that I am doing well. Things are coming together, as they normally do for me; one piece at a time. -To add to this, Mother's Day is in 9 days, and my 26th birthday is in 17 days. I have much happening this month. So I am asking for your forgiveness in advance, as I may be quite preoccupied, yet again.

As always, I love you Daddy. I can't wait for your visit. I do hope the trip will not be too taxing, and the the path you travel is clear and fair. ;)
