48 hrs & 19 min :)

..........I will be sitting down at my FIRST EVER wedding shower for MYSELF! :)) hehehe!! We are SO excited & I really hope alllll my people can come to celebrate! It's just gonna be a big, happy party!

I was so looking forward to going shopping with my Mom tonight, but she isn't feeling well :(  say a prayer for her!--some of the outfits I got in Shreveport, I decided I didn't like after I got home...(don't hate--you've done it before, too!) So, I'm just gonna run to Dillards after work & see if I can snag a couple of cute things & be done with it! (I have to go home & CLEAN!!)

Sipping on some coffee I made @ work, looking forward to the next 38 minutes to come & go! Pray for T, he works again tonight--sooo thankful for his job...but he is NOT digging the whole night shift thing! ;"( It will all work out though! God is faithful...

Later Gator!

wedding shower is 4 days away!

WHOAH!! my wedding shower is only 4 days away--that's insane! soo excited...it's like Christmas in April! i think we should do this at least twice a year,lol! (the shower, NOT the wedding!) hah!!

i've had a looonnng day...i have felt like a zombie ever since i got out of bed, actually
after work, i went to dinner w/ T @ wingstop...then got a mani & pedi (the guy took f-o-r stinkin' e-v-e-r)...i promise i was at the nail place 2 1/2 hours... ;( grrr! that's when it becomes a CHORE instead of a PLEASURE.. anyway,my nails & toes are cuter than they were before i went, i suppose...(and i'm also a little poorer!)

after that ordeal, i went by the family life center to check the status of my wedding shower...it's gonna be SO cute, and very "shabby chick-ish"...i hope EVERYONE can come..it would mean the world to us! :)

home now, (finally..i felt like i'd never get here)..and yes, i have wedding invitations to address, i have things to order online, i have cleaning to do, and the list goes on.......BUT, i'm sipping hot tea & about to call it a night. i've decided it can all wait........my head hitting the pillow @ 10:00pm is my goal...

tons of love...

sick, again!?

my crazy immune system! seriously!?!?! it's on the blink (again!).. i do think it is stress-induced! so my mom just went and invested in some major vitamin c-ish stuff to help me feel better!
quick update here, since i'm sitting at home...miserable because of all the things i know i need to be doing.. such as: be at work today, work on school assignments, be at our house cleaning & helping T with stuff, doing office work at the church, etc. etc. but, maybe this is the only way God knows i will actually rest...and i'm really not resting..just sitting here getting more aggravated by the  minute..ha ha!!
anyway...love to you all..hope you are having a great week.. tomorrow is FRIDAY! say a prayer for me..
xoxo..

The First Blog :)

Hey everyone!
This is my first blog on this particular site--I wanted to come up with something so after the wedding is all said & done, those who would like...can still keep up with us & all the crazy things I'm sure we will be taking on and getting into!
I am currently in stress-mode. Buying a house, "home-improving" a house, planning a wedding, working a full time job, church-ing full time, and going to grad school...well, i have a bit of a full plate! but all is well...i just pray every night for the Lord to give me an extra boost of strength & energy...and so far i'm still truckin'!! :)
Don't have much time now, but I promise you'll hear back from me! The coolest thing is...T doesn't even know he is now a blog-owner...heheh! I'll fill him in later, and maybe we can get him to post sometime!

Xoxo...
