Wedding Daze - I Really, Really Do!

I left you (almost) at the alter. How tacky of me! Dressed, pressed and ready to go, I talked briefly with our commissioner. Everyone was present and accounted for, things were ready to roll. We were 10 minutes early, but there was no point in waiting on the clock. The commissioner left and Dad... Sign in to see full entry.

Wedding Daze - Planning

Hubby and I were married on March 3, 2013 at 3:00pm. It was a Sunday, which was somewhat awkward to schedule – Saturday would have made more sense and been easier for our few guests. But Hubby wanted 03/03 as our date; it was the only thing he was adamant about and I didn’t argue; it didn't matter... Sign in to see full entry.

A "Brief" Response

Okay. I've taken a good, deep breath (thanks, Jimmy!) and have spent the day collecting my thoughts. My first instinct was to draft this response immediately, and let flow the thousands of things I could have said. But cooler heads prevailed - I try not to speak when angry, or take the defensive on... Sign in to see full entry.

A Big Carrot

The spell check function seems to be malfunctioning. I suppose this means I'll have to be a bit more diligent with my typing - just in case, please forgive any creative spelling errors!! Naut's been talking a lot about Egypt lately (understandably so, considering the mess they're in), and Morsi in... Sign in to see full entry.

Adventures in Banking

First - yes, I read Sam! It was one of the first blogs I stumbled across here, and I've been following her regularly; I don't know how she's managed to stay so positive for this long - if our process goes anything like hers, I will be obsessively rocking in a corner and muttering nonsense before too...

This morning, hubby and I are off to sign the paperwork with the bank and make our mortgage official. This will allow us to lock in the interest rate and ensure that hubby sleeps a bit better. We still don't have a possession date, which is getting frustrating - we had hoped to be in by now, but its... Sign in to see full entry.

My Rules

The Ten Commandments, as found in Exodus in the King James Bible (shortened in places because, frankly, I am a lazy typist): 1) Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 2) Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth...

The Slide to Stupid

Naut speaks often of declining birthrates, and why this poses such a problem to the future of our society. It's a problem and should cause everyone some worry. Along with this low birth rate, I have also been growing more and more concerned with the intelligence and potential of our future... Sign in to see full entry.

Perspective

I have been neglecting this site. The counter says "4 days" in the most accusing tone. My reading and commenting has suffered as well, and I am sorry I haven't been visiting you all these past days. Work has been chaos. Summer is always our busy season, and this week we've had a record number of... Sign in to see full entry.
