Wedding Season?

2007 - the year we got married, was a year full of weddings! Some of my nearest and dearest friends got married that year - and through the month of June there was a wedding every other weekend! I LOVE going to weddings, but haven't been to one since last May...May 2008.

I'm excited because we're gearing up for 3 weddings in the next month! My oldest (as in the length of time I've known her) friend Jenny is getting married in one week! I get to share the matron of honor duties with my dear friend Emily. Then, the next week a friend from high school is getting married and 2 weeks later one of Brian's friend's from college is getting married.

Weddings are awesome. I'd love to do my wedding day again. It is still my favorite day of my life. I loved having my mom pick me up in the morning for my hair appointment, seeing my handsome groom for the first time, hugging my dad as he choked back tears before we walked down the aisle together, promising before God and all our friends and family that we were committed to one another for a lifetime, hearing people clap when we kissed after being pronounced husband and wife, celebrating with all of our wonderful family and friends, sharing the day with my parents 34th wedding anniversary and going to my new home with my new husband. It was the best day ever. I hope all my friends have a day as great as ours!

6 days

This has been an interesting week. Last Friday night I had "the tickle". That awful throat tickle that told me that I was more than likely going to end up sick. By the next morning my fears were confirmed. Since then, today is Thursday, I have spent my life on the couch. After 6 days, and several hours for most of those nights, I'm guessing my couch would like me to remove my sick self from it's cushions. My sick self is ready to be up and off this couch. I'm really ready to go back to school. I'm bored out of my mind. Here are some random things about my week on the couch.
* I've learned 3 friends of mine are pregnant.
* 2 different friends that are pregnant found out that they're having girls.
*I've seen 2 doctors and am currently on my second kind of antibiotics.
* Even though I know I'm sick and don't look great, it's not cool when your sub for the day tells you that you don't look good.
* I learned that snot can come out of your eyeballs.
* I love the TV show 'Friends'
* I have the greatest friends - some of them took over some of my responsibilities so I could be home coughing up a lung.
* I have the greatest mom. She took off work to take me to the doctor, brought food and has called every day (sometimes several times) to check on me.
* I miss sleeping in the same bed as my husband. He's been nice enough to sleep in the guest room so I can have the bed to myself. I miss him.
* I think not having a sense of taste is the key to losing weight. I'm hungry, but since I can't taste anything I have no idea what I should eat.
*I have spent way too much time on facebook this week.
