Mawwaige, that Bwessed Event...

Since I was 9, I said I'd never do it. I thought my personal hang-ups (or his for that matter) would prevent any kind of long-term,  commitment.  I thought I never wanted to risk being part of the 50% divorce rate. I thought, "I'm an independent, do-it-yourself kind of gal". But yet, here I am picking out wedding colors, dresses, and other girlie things I never thought I'd have to do. And to tell the truth, its kind of fun. 

I could even see some women getting married just to have a wedding. Another excuse to plan, plan, plan, spend money that isn't yours, and then party, complete with tears and the emotional ride.

However, I knew I found my guy in the first two weeks we were dating. No emotional hang-ups, chemistry is good, and most of all, I trust him.

So, here are my colors. Geek that I am, I used Color Picker  to get just the right shades of Green (C5DE49), Periwinkle (AAB1FA), and Tangerine (FFD23D). Next I'm gonna go to the hardware store for paint samples, just to make sure I got it right.

I'm trying to do at least one thing per day to plan. Yesterday, I impulse bought a wedding dress on-line. Watch out, who knows what I'll do today. Don't be surprised if you see me cruising town, hanging out of a limo window in order to make sure I have just the right amount of wind in my face as we take our leave of the reception.
