Just back

Just back from our honeymoon in Antigua! What a wonderful island. If you're interested, it's jelly fish season, which I'm not a huge fan of. We had a great time, but I can think of better snorkling places, if you are into that sort of thing. I thought that the reefs were pretty close to the surface of the water, and I like to see them more from a distance... felt like I had to "suck in" to get over them. Took the 4x4 safari trip, and the Adventure Tour - both were a great experience with excellent tour guides - they knew so much about their island! I'll post pictures after we upload them.

Our resort - Sandals Grande Antigua - Penthouse with Butler Service. We went all out, and found that it was well worth it. If you are interested in information about Sandals - just shout. I'm happy to give review.

Yum

Christmas is November 21!!!!!!!

I can't get enough. The final trailer for Twilight was released yesterday and my colleague and I have watched it no less that 10 times already... November 21 can't come fast enough...

And, oh yeah... getting married in 7 days and 1.5 hours!! Can't stand it! Between Shawn and Edward, my head might detach itself and go flying away... I've decided to only take 2 Stephanie Meyer's books with me on our honeymoon, because I might get in trouble if EC compromises all 2 weeks. I'll be getting a divorce and the body won't even be cold yet.

I must admit though, with all the wedding stress and nervous, Twilight is a wonderful blocker of all things anxiety, and I'm happy that I found Bella & Edward at this particular time, they've been calming and enchanting at such a romantic time of my life.

Hair trial tonight! Yippee!

Haven't posted in so so long... The wedding is a mere couple weeks - yikes, and I've been hopelessly addicted to the Twilight series. And I mean addicted. Not only did I get though 4 books in just over a week, I've got 4 other people on board, and I've started to read them again.

Part of the problem I'm currently having with this is the inability to focus on anything else. My poor fiance would have starved a long time ago if it weren't for the local diner, and the wedding has almost taken a beating just as bad! Really troublesome is the fact that I can't get into any other books right now. I read often, and nothing else is holding my attention. I've tried politics to Chiclets, and nothing will budge. And, I can't wait for the movie, my colleague and I watch the trailers almost every morning.

Go Team Edward!

going green

slowly - i repeat, very slowly, we have been making little changes to our home in hopes to consider our environmental footprint. so, we've been buying the tote bags to purchase our food with, and turning up the air, and down the heat... but it's really hard to make a BIG impact. i'm not sure exactly what i'm trying to do, but i would like to think that we are doing our part, and i definitely don't feel that way yet. we are going to be putting in on of those instant hot water heaters, apparently they are very good, and next year i'm expanding my veggie garden, and starting a compost. what i really want to strive for is less plastic bags... WAY hard to do... they are really apart of every day life.
stay tuned for more greening stuff.

lets just say it's been a few hectic weeks... mailed the invites - yay! Had gina's wedding, picked up FI's baby pics and had the first fitting. also started back at the gym... my whole body hurts today. needless to say, there was an ice cream cone that finished off tonight - yum.

found really great gm gifts - i'm totally stoked about them! and already ordered the girls part of their present. just looking for a few odds and ends. i'm also so excited for a shower... i didn't realized i'd get so excited for it! i obviously have no idea when it is, although that doesn't stop me from asking FI frequently... it gets him all flustered; i don't really want to know when it is, its just fun to watch him squerm!!

just hanging out

took the day off today to hand out at my 'arents hours and be available for the window washers. it's a great dya out, perfect weather. I'd like to talk Shawn into happy hour at kaminski's but I don't think that'll happen. I am going to stop by the post office today and have my wedding invites weighed - yay! Wedding mail. Starting to feel nervous. When I think about actually sending them , I get butterflies.

Oh - awesome work related news... Our professional organization has an annual educational meeting, that my position is not typically involved in attending. So I submitted for a scholarship to the local chapter and was awarded! WooHoo! New Orleans in January! So I'm way stoked.
