It’s my last day of dog sitting for Kris. I feel like after tonight I can try and regain somewhat of a normal life again.

A week ago today life got really complicated for a short time. It was a holiday weekend, Pop died and then dog sitting all added up to my life feeling way out of the norm. At least I got to spend most of the time with David, which was nice.

I can’t believe it’s June! Time is flying by so quickly and every time I realize how close the wedding is now, I semi freak and get excited at the same time. Four months. Just four very short months until I’m Mrs. David Cole. That seems so far and so very close at the same time. Why do I feel like it won’t happen? Too good to be true?

David and I went and picked out wedding bands yesterday at the Shane Company. We figured since we’re up here in Gwinette at the closest Shane Co to us now, it would be a waste to not go ahead and pick out what we want. David picked out this titanium ring and I chose this simple, 14k white gold one. I like how mine is plain, so that is blends in perfectly with my engagement ring and doesn’t take away from the beauty of the solitare diamond. It’s just my own taste, but I prefer the simple look when it comes to wedding rings. Too much bling makes you look like you’re desperate to prove to everyone that you’re really in love… or that you have way too much money to spend.

There is still a lot to do for the wedding. I haven’t bought my dress yet, and that is a rather important thing top have. I’ve had three people offer to give me bridal showers, which is very nice. No set dates yet, but I’m sure that they will be set soon.

This Friday I have my second meeting with my wedding planner at the Hazelhurst House. We get to discuss flowers… yay. I also have to tell her that our wedding party is diminished by one since we lost Pop. It was something we all knew would happen before October, but we still didn’t want to not count him as someone who would be there.

My brother, Matthew, will be coming home this month for good. Well, when I say “home”, I mean the USA; Georgia in specific. I’m glad he’ll be back soon, especially with that power crazed North Korean communist dictator, Kim Jung Il getting ready to go psycho over there. Matt will miss his birthday, which is next Monday. My baby brother will be 21. Oh, my God!

I’m applying for a few jobs. Please pray that I get one of them!
