Insanity

I just feel like chaos is happening, all around me. Work is crazy (with emotions from those that were dealt a big blow yesterday) and now personal life is crazy with Andy moving out of his house this week. I also had two fillings put into my mouth yesterday and I'm REALLY sore. I'm starting to feel like I just want to run away. So, last night I worked a little more on the rug. I'm about two third's done now!!! You can actually tell what it is.

Monday Monday

It's DEFINITELY a Monday. I all ready have a laundry list of things I need to do after work. T-5 days until my first wedding shower. I'm excited and nervous all at once. There's so much going on that my head feels like it's going to spin and fly off. Hopefully it'll land in the front row of a theatre in London.... :):) I'm also actively trying to wear green as it's Saint Patty's day on Wednesday. I don't really celebrate but it definitely gives me an excuse to wear items in my wardrobe that sometimes become forgotten.

Yesterday was SO beautiful and I hope my wedding day is as nice as that!

Today's Creative Efforts

Today, I walked into the bathroom and stared at my THREE curling irons. All of which are different sizes. I grabbed a newer one and plugged it in. I wanted to see what would happen so I just started curling until I got bored and VOILA! There are the curls! I have yet to figure out a way to hide my gigantic forehead but I can tackle that mystery tomorrow!

LND

Yesterday evening, Love Never Dies officially opened at the West End. I'm quit happy to report that the opening performance seemed to go very well. It seems like ALW has created quit an interesting weave of emotions for the three main characters. I can hardly wait to receive my copy of the albumn in the mail. Amazon has kindly informed me that it is on it's way. I can now only hope that Ramin and Sierra will be performing the night that we see the show. Ah to be on the heals of seeing two beautiful musicals in the West End.

Not to forget the following nights performance of The Phantom of the Opera. :) It's almost impossible to keep the wedding and the honeymoon straight. Priorities.. Priorities.

Caught Up

I'm planning a dream honeymoon. One that I could never have imagined that I'd be going on. When I was a little girl, I made a precious scrap book that, to this day, I have not shared with anyone. It's a cute intermingling of my heart and some goofy teenage interests. I shared my feelings about songs, my favorite musical, and my wishes for my future. I remember feeling that nothing would stop me from my dreams and that I would achieve them no matter the cost. I even made my own sequel to my favorite musical. So, now I get to live the dream and really find out what happens to these two characters with the utmost interesting and beautiful souls. Of course, no trip to London would be complete without seeing the musical that has been the one thing I've been interested in and have enjoyed for the majority of my life. No trip to Paris would also be complete without seeing the Opera house either. I reflect at this trip and realize that I truly am a lucky lucky woman.
The dream trip has swept me so far in that I've almost forgotten about the events prior. Possibly because this dream is a lot easier to plan and it's plans only involve 2 people as opposed to many more. So, as with everything, I'm going to take life one day at a time and enjoy the little things. Yesterday I bought the most perfect pair of shoes. They are TSA friendly, extremely comfortable for walking in and could be either dressy or be worn with jeans. Keep focusing on the small things.

Just another day?

Sometimes weddings and change bring out the best in people and sometimes they bring out the worst. Some days are easier to cope with and some are not. Sometimes I lay awake in my bed before it's time to get up and I feel like my heart is racing a thousand miles a minute. Am I having a heart attack? I need that warm comfortable place to visit every once in a while. A place that can only be found through a farmiliar song, a joke, a picture, or a cup of tea. My mind is flooded. What color paint should I use, which picture should go where, how many musicals will I see and how will I get into the Paris Opera house? So many things need attention and yet, which one requires it immediately? The wedding and the honeymoon will win that battle.

As with many things, I anticipate that I will learn more about myself and maybe even "find" myself in the approaching months ahead. It will be a good to know those things.

Andy's Bathroom

I finally got my dirty hands on Andy's downstairs bathroom! The walls and ceiling were the same disgusting dark grey. So I picked a paint color and took a trip to target to grab a shower curtain. Voila!!! The new bathroom.

I like how the grey I picked still has color but not too much color! :) We also painted the light panels white.

This project was monumental and took forever and yet it was just the beginning...
