Seriously…

So, I was checking in on the blog…not a lot of time for that recently as I am now losing sleep over the wedding.  It feels like finals week but with out the free food…and more showering but that is beyond the point. …anyway, so my page views per day were obviously low for this [...]

Wedding weather…

So, the wedding is 11 days away and it’s pretty much all I think about!  In my efforts to control for everything, I have been checking the weather.  weather.com doesn’t give data more than 10 days out, so I went over to accuweather.com.  Things were looking good, until I got greedy and wanted more sun.

Um…we don’t take Discover.

So I’m pretty sure we all are aware of the crazy industry that is the wedding industry.  Well, as I’m perusing the news I stumble upon this article and I couldn’t help myself from sharing… “JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Guests at an Israeli wedding hall can now insert a credit card into a machine at its [...]

Losing it.

So, Joe and I are in full wedding planning mode. There are copious decisions to be made, and I fear in the process, I may be losing my mind. This morning when I went to grab some jeans for work…and my credit card fell out of my back pocket…I was stunned—literally STUNNED! I stood there [...]
