Inspiration

I am currently suffering with my ear and the world is muffled. I hate it when my ear does this, a regular occurences making me temporarily almost deaf. Much to my fiances amusement as he can say pretty much anything in a whisper and I can't hear a sausage. Especially on my left side....
The dress has arrived and has been paid for. Got all giddy about it on saturday. want to tell everyone what it looks like but have had strict instructions from sal not do so..... I have to agree with her on this.
Just read Liz's blog and lent for me too has taken on a new meaning. I have joined the anglicans this year for a daily text service that tells you everyday to do an act of kindness or contemplation. I have never been one to be good at giving things up during Lent, but this is up my street doing something. The first three have been easy. 1) make someone laugh 2) Go or organise a party 3) spend sometime in silence. I won't say what I did or am doing for it. Kind like the idea of it being a thing just between me and Jesus. He knows and that's good enough for me.

Blogging laziness

I have two computers here that connect to the internet so really no excuse at all not to be blogging. sorry. Update: Time with Mum was brilliant. She kicked my a***e to get into gear with the wedding plans. so now we have spent every evening of this week writing, stuffing envelopes and sending them out. On a Sunday mind so should still be a few days before people get them. But all very exciting to say the least.
Having problems though with our reception venue- they kindly have not informed us that guests should pre-order food- so really should have gone into the invites. Now all they said was 'well we are telling you now' 2 months before the wedding when we booked last may and have tried to get a meeting with them ever since only to be fobbed off at ever occassion.
Oh the joys of event management! I tell ya the dream of becoming a wedding planner myself are being dashed fast.......:o)
back to the update of Mum being here. we all went over to Ireland for a long weekend to visit my sister. Had loads of fun. We went to Castle Trim and the Boyne River. drove through some very gorgeous countryside. Only winge is that our room was like sleeping in a fridge..... brrrrrr. Kind a funny now that you look back at it. I'm currently searching the internet for wedding shoes. That's it really for now.
