EEEk. So i got home too late last night to post my blessings, BUT I did ponder them throughout the day.
I will say, I was umm...CRABBY for like half the day. For no "good" reason really, I just had all these little meetings every which way and I was feeling pulled in several directions. I was just very irritable. So my first blessing came from Aaron.....

Upon hearing me say that I was irritable, he gently and kindly reminded me to not get worked up about little things. That's all he said. But it worked. I shot up a quick prayer and I started to have a MUCH better attitude after my adjustment.
I had a meeting with the woman who is altering my wedding dress, she is finished with the front and it looks great!
I had a meeting with my flower lady and she knew about this fabric that I didn't called gossamer that is really cheap and will be perfect for wedding decor! She is going to order some for me in bulk and save me a lot of cost!!:)
Also, when meeting with "flower lady" I learned about a free play downtown tonight. I love plays and free things. I think I will go.:)
Last night Heather, myself, and mommy had a girls night out. We saw 17 Again. again. Hahaha..we saw it on Friday and here we are seeing it on Tuesday. It's so adorable though, such a cute, funny movie.:) And my mom paid for it, which was doubly awesome.
I was late for an appointment yesterday and I called only to find out that the other person was too! I like when that happens.
I got to cuddle and just be with Aaron last night. We didn't talk hardly at all. We just cuddled on the couch and sort of slept and just cuddled for like an hour and a half. It was nice.
The same woman who is doing my dress is going to, along with her husband, do some pre-marriage counseling. They are a more mature couple and I'm excited to learn some things from them.
Okay so this is just funny: yesterday as I was turning into a subdivision for one of my meetings I screech to a halt because there are two ducks just sitting in the middle of the road. Both ducks look up at the car. Slowly get up and waddle to the side. BUT as the one duck is waddling to the side, it poops mid waddle. It was super gross but really funny at the same time.
That's all I can think of for now.:)
LOVE.

BLESSINGS BLOG.

I am going to use this whole blogging thing to track what I am thankful for. A sort of experiment. I mean I am pretty positive most of the time, but I really do think a healthy concentration of what you are thankful for at the end of the day makes for not only a GREAT sleep, but a healthy mind and heart.:) And most of all, it keeps the perspective that God is a good God after all, we are the ones that start to get wrapped up in our problems, somehow changing our perspective on who God is. SO let the festivities begin!!
Today....

I had a great breakfast of egg, sunny side up with toast. A favorite of mine!
I didn't sleep well, but don't have to work mornings this week..hence, adequate rest.
Coffee was already made and hot when I woke up, Mommy does that every morning!
I was able to work out and it felt awesome.
I was in touch with a woman that has a great apartment for me and Aaron and is excited to show it to us.
I was encouraged to find out about someone that really respects my fiance(not like I didn't know he was great) and found out there may be a possible job for him in the future.
I was able to help my future mother-in-law send out invites for Aaron's man shower.
When I parked downtown today, there was 35 minutes left in the meter. I only needed about 10. Oh the little things.:)
I got 3 free bagels at Panera today from a coupon I got from the MS walkathon yesterday.
It was a VERY rainy and dreary day..I have a need for soup on these days. Aaron made the most fabulous spicy chicken broccoli rice soup!! mmmm.
I set up a meeting to talk to my flower lady tommorow..who is doing everything for the wedding FREE.:)
I got to just hang out and watch food network with the love of my life. One of my favorite pasttimes.....
I got hugs and kisses from my love.:)
I had some extra time to read the WORD and PRAY.
I had the opportunity to help out a little bit by cleaning up a mess.:) It actually was a joy, seriously.:)
I set up a time to have dinner with one of my favorite people this week. Looking forward to Wednesday!
Wow. This is impacting me already.:)
It really does matter what you focus on in life. And we all have a choice.

LOVE.

Okay so I am coming back. The instanity and excitement of engagement is settling a bit. Not that I am not excited, just a different feeling.:)

So all I have to say.

Aaron and I spent 3 hours watching Discovery's "PLANET EARTH" on Sunday. We didn't even mean to, it was addicting! I used to be so bored with that sort of thing. Wow. I was just way out of focus.

I challenge anyone who doesn't believe in God to watch those segments. I would be surprised if they still thought evolution was a better explanation for all that is this earth. I mean it is absolutely incredible.

Watch it. The end.
