39 Days!

So.... I fail at blogging. I'm sorry!!!!! I'm trying. Starts again today.

But now I don't know what to say! Okay, so what's going on here.

Something I don't understand. Stupid people. If you are not invited to a wedding, DON'T COME. There is a girl/woman who is NOT invited to the wedding, per mom's request. She and Mom do NOT get along, and she really does not mean that much to me, so why ever would I invite her to the wedding? It's clear to everyone involved that she is not invited, but yet mc insisted on RSVP'ing for her. Why force your presence? And how dare mc make sure that HER person is invited, even when that was CLEARLY not the case.

An invitation was lost in the mail, and I'm STRESSED about it. I know it went into the mail, and I don't wanna put another one in the mail because I know the new one will magically appear. Gah. Stress. I'm sorry, Amanda!!

Tried glass etching for the first time last night... It could have been better, but it could have been WAAAAAAY worse too!! I did a cute little flour de lis on a medium-sized votive glass... It's cute enough for me! I'm excited.

Today is such an ordinary day. Domesticity in the morning, work tonight... More domesticity, with wedding crap thrown in. AND SHOPPING ON DOLLAR TREE'S WEBSITE!!! I'm obsessed. Irrationally so. I found pretty taper candle sticks for a dollar, and I got craftily inspired. Hence the glass etching, but also my crazy pinning of house DIY stuff. I really think it's gonna be both more fun and cheaper to do a lot of that stuff myself in my spare time than to buy stuff. And then I have an arsenal of possible gifts or answers to home-y problems. I really want to be domestic super-wife, but still juggling work and everything else. Lofty goals. We shall see. I have a feeling I'll be falling on my face a LOT, but I can try!!

So, tonight I'm gonna start blogging my journey through "Behold Your Life" by Macrina Wiederkehr... We're gonna see. I need something to do daily. A moment of peace with Jesus. I can devote a few minutes to Him every day, but I need a structure. And with 40 days until the day I get married, (well, 39, but one for the wedding day too), I feel like it'll be a good thing. Also, that means a letter to PJ everyday between now and the wedding... Sounds like I have my work cut out for me!

Prayers, PLEASE. And this blog is holding me accountable. Starting right now.

39 Days til the wedding!
