DIY: Drought

So I have decided that I am no good at this blogging thing when my life is so hectic already. I still dabble in DIY projects once in a while, but I don't have the time to take the pictures or write up something to make it easier for you to understand or do. Plus with my recent trip to Florida I haven't had time to breathe I am basically sorting through 900+ photos of Disney World and an area resort that we stayed in. For now, I am doing some planning for small trips in the coming months, and attempting to get ready for two weddings, also in the next two months. It's a very stressful time because there are so many requirements to being IN a wedding, let alone attending. This weekend is my sister's Bachelorette Party, and along with a couple other bridesmaids, I am trekking over to Newburgh, NY and attending a BBQ and night out with my sister for her Last Fling Before the Ring.

I think it is a cute tradition for some, and something that I have no desire to take part in come my turn. I never was big on going out, getting plastered and blaming it on the fact that it was my last chance to do so, so I don't see myself doing it to celebrate my last night as a free woman. The way I see it, once I moved in with Nick, my free woman status was over. Yeah, I have my own mind and my own life, but I enjoy the time that I spend cooking, and time with him, much more than being out and about with other people (no offense to other people, they just aren't Nick lol). I guess the way that I see it, me and Nick are basically married already. Tying the knot will only make it official and change how we file our taxes.

It's odd how quickly my wedding has turned into such a small deal since all of these other weddings started to take over. It's like my mother's house was taken over my glitter monsters, and card stock fairies, and normally this would be cool, but it is becoming scary. It's to the point that I don't want to talk or think about my wedding around my family. My mom has stopped getting on my case about setting a date and sending out save the dates, but has gone into wedding overdrive for my sister! Not to mention that every single conversation revolves around the wedding and whether or not I have everything in order for myself. Sad part is that I do, and have for about 4 months. I am just that efficient, now if only I could be that efficient when it came to DIY posts. Hopefully I will have one soon. I do have a plan for DIY creative gift wrapping once the holiday's get closer, so I guess you have at least that to look forward to!
