BLINKIES!!!

I bet your wondering what a Blinky is, well let me explain...One of the blogs I read regularly is written by a lovely fellow canadian by the name of Christine...and one day awhile back Christine decided to create a new friend for her cat Pooks and posted a pic in her blog of Pooks and New Friend and needed ideas on what to name this new critter creation. Well...I came up with the name >Blinky..I thought it kinda looked like a lightbalb and lights make u blink ..yada yada u get the picture..I thought it was brilliant if I do say so myself lol.

I also commented that I knew two dogs who would love a blinky...and wouldn't u know it but Christine emailed me and offered to send my dogs a Blinky each!!! I can't tell you how delighted I was and how sweet Christine was to offer them to us...she wouldn't even hear of me paying for the postage...she (a perfect stranger) told me to consider them a wedding gift. Now how special is that? It renews faith that there are still so many nice ppl out there...once in awhile we need to be reminded that.

So now I will share a little photo story of the Doggy Dilema OR Don't Touch MY Blinky Damnit!

FACE PAINT AND FACIALS

OK, now I am at that point in the plans where everything about the wedding is pretty much done. What is my focus now?..It's me. ...I realize that I can't lose a million lbs before the wedding ofcourse but I do hope to look my best apart from that lol.
I made an appointment to have my makeup done Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
it was today.
I wanted to have a professional do it for a few reasons...I wanted to update my look, I think we can easily fall into a rut of doing the same thing for yrs and actually age ourselves by not trying to stay up to date with the times.....I was hoping to maybe get some new ideas and ofcourse...look good.

What ended up happening is I now feel totally confident about doing MY OWN makeup on my wedding day lol!
I have done almost exactly what she did today and even abit better if I do say so myself lol. I don't regret going at all, who doesn't enjoy a little pampering.

I did however book a facial for 2 weeks from now. Even in my 40's I am plagued with mild acne...not alot but a facial will make a needed difference a cpl weeks before the wedding.

I am now just in the mood to shave,Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting scrub, rub, Photobucket - Video and Image Hostingbuff and creamPhotobucket - Video and Image Hosting anything I can lol so that this moon will be presentablePhotobucket - Video and Image Hosting

JUST HAD TO DO IT

Yes, I had to add a gagette on my blog lol...If you didn't notice (like it's not obnoxciously obvious already) I put a Wedding Countdown at the top of my blog.

Hey, it will only happen once in my life...(no comments from the peanut gallery out there) I waited till 43 to marry, it's not going to happen again lol!

As much as we can't wait and the days seem to drag on...at the same time it seems unreal that its actually only 39 days away!!!

Part of me wants to make the days go faster and another part of me wants to:

-call the dress store and start screaming for my first fitting!
-call the florist and make sure there will be enough flowers to fill a big enough bouquet to be proportionate to this big girl!
-run around the house making lists of the minute details I have already made lists of!
-make a visual grouping of all the things purchased so far in the living room in order to not forget anything...including my strapless bra and underwear...paired with the cake knife set and candles.....
the more I see that happening, the more it will look like some kind of kinky ...I better do that pile of stuff in the bedroom....Um, that's not a great idea either...

I will think of something!!

-I already have the urge to pack my suitcase for the day of...we will be getting ready there and staying the night....
-I just know I will forget something....good think Chris is driving cause I would probably forget him too .....LMAO...like he would let me!!
-I am making lists in my head, and checking them twice....then shaking my head and starting all over again...I could really get some tips from Santa right now lmao!
-Over all, I take some breaths and just hope that everything will come together.

MOST of all, I am loving all of this....the nerves, the excitement, the lists, the whole process...how could I not....

I will be marrying the most wonderful man in the world!!! It doesn't get better then this.
