It's Been How Long?...

Hmm...kind of forgot about my blog, but I am going to try posting again. This past Sunday was Walter and my first wedding anniversary! Can you believe it's already been a year? And I love him more and more every single day. :) (Cheezy, I know, but true). We are going to try to head to Vegas at the end of the month to celebrate. Walter has to go there for work, so why not go the weekend ahead and have some fun. Woo hoo! I'm excited. I hope it all works out.

Also on Sunday, my dear friend Debbie Marcey got married! She is now Mrs. Deborah (Debbie) DeVore. Yea! I'm so happy for her. Of course, the wedding was beautiful and the reception was wonderful. She was a gorgeous bride!

My jewelry business is going GREAT!!! I love it! It has done more for me than I ever imagined and it continues to grow (along with my confidence and self-image). I am truly blessed and grateful that God brought this opportunity into my life. Take a look at the website: www.premierdesigns.com You can't see a catalog, but you can learn a lot more about this wonderful company. I would love to be able to do this full-time (a.k.a. around 40 hours a MONTH).

Since I last posted, my two nieces had a birthday: Natalie is now 5 and Amy is 3! How the time flies...I can hardly believe that it's been almost five years since I lived in North Carolina. Wow.

That's all for now. Later!

We Have a Date!

The wedding date is set: Friday, March 2. I've already booked our church, our pastor, and the reception hall. Whew. I've been busy. Luckily, I already knew where I wanted the reception to be held and since I'm doing a Friday evening, it was easier to book the reception hall. My mom, Kara (my sister and matron-of-honor), and I are looking at dresses this Saturday. How fun! I already found one that I REALLY like online at David's Bridal. So, we are heading there first on Saturday. Jess bought me a wedding planning book -- wow! I had no idea that there were so many things to do! Plus, most people start almost a year in advance and I'm doing it in six months. Oh well. The work is well worth the short wait. So, how am I doing with posting so far? Look, Amanda, two blogs in one week! You must be proud of me. Still no pictures as Walter has been out of town and I don't have a camera. Hopefully, I will have some for you soon.

Don't Give Up On Me Yet

Okay, okay, I've started to slack again. I'm sorry Amanda. It's a good thing I have Walter -- HE reminded me to write on the blog. Ha! So, I was told that it would take 12 weeks for my wedding dress to arrive. One week later, I get a phone call that my dress is in! Wow! So, I have the dress...can we just go ahead and get married? :) Anyway, in order to prepare for my wedding, I felt that it was finally time to spend the money and get LASIK. This past Tuesday, I got my eyes examined to see if I am a candidate and...I am! So, on Friday of next week (9/15), I'm getting LASIK! Yea!!! I'll let you know how it goes. Still need to find a photographer, videographer, and DJ (Walter's in charge of finding the DJ). We've also begun to look for someone to do invitations. Less than six months till my wedding! If I think of more to add, I'll let you know!

Honestly...

I've been thinking a lot about honesty lately, specifically in relationships. For the most part, I consider myself an honest person. When I worked in retail, my customers appreciated that I would give them honest feedback and let them know if something worked for them, instead of just trying to make a sale. I joke around that if you give me a just a little alcohol, you will be sure to know my opinions about any and everything. ;) However, when it comes to people who are close to me, I have a harder time being honest. I can be honest when it doesn't matter -- even when it is with people I consider my friends. I think because there isn't as much at stake -- if they judge me, get mad, or walk away, it doesn't really matter. I know that I was honest and I can move on in my life.  However, with those closest to me, I'm careful to keep things close to me and compartmentalize instead to sharing how I honestly feel. There's way more at stake. Yes, I know that the people...
