Take time to enjoy

I haven't posted in a while, and with reason; I simply am taking the time to enjoy being engaged.

With an engagement doesn't just come a man asking you to be his partner, and a diamond on your finger, but the almost immediate planning of your big day. Lately, with so many acquaintances becoming "les fiançailles," it has been a constant day-to-day topic of discussion about who is doing what, when, where, how and why and...enough! It's easy to get caught up in the whose who of wedding planning and forget what is actually going on...HELLO, like, I AM GETTING MARRIED! I am going to be someone's wife, I am making a promise to someone to love and cherish him for the rest of our lives, no matter what he does or doesn't do, until we die. You think the wedding is a big deal; this is a BIG freaking deal!

I believe myself to be a smart little wedding bee, because with the wedding hoopla that has taken over our country, I knew the competition I was in for in planning my big day. So I did rush to book the biggies (venue, band and photog). So for now, until I start trying on dresses and hyperventilating, I am taking some time to relax and enjoy my summer as an engaged woman.
