8 months together...what an adventure!

It's funny to think that Paulie and I have been engaged longer than we actually dated, but nonetheless, we've been together 8 months today. And they have been an amazing 8 months at that. Planning this wedding with him brings me so much joy. It's been the easiest thing I've ever done. I think that's because we had a lot of people saying prayers for us when they first heard of our engagement. A lot of the older couples in the church want the best for us and because we're young, they've given us great advice and guidance for our marriage preparation.

We're checkin' off things left and right. We went to the baker's yesterday and picked up a pamphlet. We just have to schedule a quick appt. and let him know that this is what we want our cake to look like! I already bought that exact cake topper at Michael's and have rose petals gallore! Goodness I'm excited! The bakery even has FUNFETTI cake! :) You know that's what I want!

We get our engagement pics taken on Saturday...super excited to be getting recent pictures of us! All the ones I have of us, Paulie is clean-shaven and I'm white as a ghost! Now I'm tan, he has a goa-tee (how do you spell that?) and I have short hair.

...as of right now I don't have any good pics of my new do just this one from my phone. But I got 5 inches cut off. I haven't had it this short since...2004? That's almost 5 good years of long hair that I HAD to keep because of headshots/auditions. Well guess what...the place that I perform now doesn't really care what my hair looks like! :) Paulie likes it a lot too. He said that it's the "new Emily Rose." He also said that I remind him of what I'll look like when I'm a mom. And that I shouldn't take offense of that because I'm gonna be a hot mom. LOL. He's silly.

Work's been kinda slow lately and this week, the patients have been down right hateful towards me. So much so, 2 of them brought me to tears. One after the phone call and one during. Jeezo peet people gotta take a chill pill! But I'm not letting that get me down. I keep putting one foot in front of the other and praising God that I even HAVE a job.

Thank the Lord it's Friday, that's all I'm sayin'! Have a great weekend!

Peace & Love.
