So the next morning the allergist's office calls and leaves a messages on my phone. They said, Oh we sent in for your serum on monday! So I am wondering ..why did they wait til this monday to order it when I saw the allergist like 3 weeks ago? Somebody dropped the ball! They expect it to be in their office for pick up on the 23rd. Just in the nick of time. Today I was suffering badly from allergies. Probably because we were visiting the horses, then playing with Abby the dog, and I was doing laundry at the same time and I am highly allergic to the lint that comes out of the lint duct..ugh! So tonight I finally broke down and bought some allergy meds and wow, it knocked me out.. I fell asleep for a couple hours, I was so dopey. It also gave me an upset belly.

This past week was Barry's parents 52nd Anniversary. We bought them some hanging plants.

One day Kaiti and I came home and found this poor little Chickadee sitting on our deck. I think it may have flown into the window and stunned itself. When we tried to pick it up it just flew away.

Barry and I finally found a spot to get married. Under this beautiful tree overlooking the water in Oak Bay. We bought our wedding bands, now to get our invitations sent out and buy our marriage license. We are hoping to go away for the weekend, rent a cottage or something and then a few months after the wedding in the off season, go to the UK :) We are so happy. I have never been in love like this. It is an amazing feeling.

Meh

Woke up this morning to a beautiful sunrise... so of course I took some pics LOL

I had a terrible time with my computer yesterday, all because I was trying to remove a stupid Microsoft product. It ended up screwing with my antivirus that I had installed and I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it just wasn't working. I even did a system restore which made things worse! Today I have managed to work around it and come up with a fix I can live with! Let's keep our fingers crossed that it keeps working.

This afternoon before B went to work we stopped off at the hall that we'd like to rent for our wedding. The lady we talked to was very nice and showed us around. The only problem is .. they might be booked for the weekend we want so we have to wait until the end of the week to find out. I sure hope we don't have to change our wedding date AGAIN!

We went to Wal-Mart to pick up B's glasses and I bought a few things I needed. We came home and just lounged around until it was time for B to go to work. I hadn't eaten all day so I made some chicken nuggets..YUMMO!

I have been reading a really good book, Until You Are Dead. It is about a Canadian man who was falsely accused of murder back in the 50's who served time in prison and was even supposed to be executed but apparently he was kept in jail for many years... I love to read about serial killers, mass murderers, murder in general and crime. Some people think that is very strange. It's not a morbid fascination that I have, simply I like to read about the criminal mind because it is so far from who I am and I find it very interesting.

My Bouquet

I've always loved Lily of the Valley and Roses. I recently found this beautiful bouquet online and KNEW I had to have it for my wedding.

In The Beginning

Barry and I have set a wedding date. September 20th 2008. The day before my birthday.

I will be documenting the planning, and the event, as well as life in general. So far we don't have any concrete plans for the venue or anything at all really. All we do know is it will be a small, semi-formal occasion. Barry will be wearing his dress uniform. I haven't decided if I will go formal or just dressy.

stay tuned!
