19 days and counting...

19 more days before my wedding and now I'm starting a blog? Shouldn't I have started it about 2 1/2 years ago when my beloved actually proposed??? Pshaw...why go with logic? My life these days is all about countdowns, and ticking little items off of a very large list. Thankfully, between God, my sweetie and my friends, I'm still sane (and if you don't agree, keep your opinion to yourself!) and I hope to remain that way until the day before the wedding when I can begin running around like a chicken with my head cut off and turn into Bridezilla!

To keep myself from obsessing constantly over wedding details such as what flowers would look best in my daughter's hair or which champagne would be best, I've been keeping myself busy with my kiddos. This week we're spending TONS of quality time (i.e. me sitting under a puppy pile of kids while watching horrible cartoons like The Fairly Odd Parents) together. My baby girl has been extremely sensitive lately, crying for her birth father and asking why he never calls or sees them. What should a Christian woman, who is attempting to be the best mother that she can be, say to that? I'm getting very good at repeating "I don't know honey."

Beyond the horrid cartoons, we have also watched all of the Harry Potter movies lately and threw a new flick into the mix when we watched The Seeker: The Dark is Rising. It didn't even come close to the book, of course, but the movie was pretty decent. Once the kids are in bed, I've been losing myself in books. Those of you who know me, know that I am an absolute book fiend. I've been reading, on average, four books a week. I think I might start reviewing them in my blogs as well, for those of you who are looking for new reading material. (Look at me, talking to the nonexistent group of people who AREN'T reading my blog!)

As for the wedding (a topic I can't avoid for very long as you can see), we applied for our marriage license on Monday and I will be picking it up on Thursday. After that, all we really have left to do it get the rest of J's suit and then the drinks, champange & appetizers for after the ceremony. The RSVP's are due by Friday. I'm interested to see how many of J's family actually RSVP. They haven't been good at that in the past....

Ok ok...enough of my wedding rant. God bless!
