Wow... it's been much too long since my last post. I've just been busy or tired or lazy. Probably lazy mostly. I had such high hopes for my blog. I guess it's not a completely lost cause just yet. Much has happened since my last post.
The biggest news is of course my engagement! I never, ever thought I'd be saying those words again. It's been a very tumultuous couple of years and sometimes I worry it's too soon, but at the same time, it all just came about so easily. The proposal was amazingly a bit of a surprise, simple, and sweet. I will be making him re-propose when he originally planned to though.
We are heading to California for vacation soon and that was his original idea to propose to me, but he got a bit antsy and I wasn't being exactly cooperative so it came about a bit sooner. It made me so happy. I also feel like I might go join the circus now too. I keep wondering what am I getting myself into again? I love my life with him, but of course I worry that I might mess up again. I can't go through all of this again. I think this life will work though. Marriage is a different thing to me now and I'm older and wiser... well I'm at least older.
I can't stop staring at the ring and I'm now in total planning mode. I didn't think I'd get this excited about planning a wedding again and we decided we would keep it small, but it's not stopping the hamster from running full speed in his little wheel in my head. I've bought the magazines and I peruse the websites all day. It's a bit sad.
I cannot believe how out of control wedding prices have become though. I'm in the wrong business! Even to have an intimate wedding I may have to sell some body parts. I don't know how they justify it, but I guess we silly woman-folk keep convincing people to let us do this, so they can keep charging outlandish prices for napkins and personalized mints. When will we learn?
