100 Days...

Whoa! 100 days to go ... and the reality of getting married is really starting to sink in! But things are coming together.

For instance yesterday:

• His ring, which we special ordered a couple of weeks ago, is in.
• I found the Sparkling Cider on sale and picked up a couple of cases.
• I made the appointment for my wedding dress fitting.
• I began working on addressing the invitations.

All of that plus a full work day. My work day had an added bit of excitement though because our parking lot was used as one of the staging areas for the Redlands Bicycle Classic. We have a huge parking lot and every square inch was filled with bicycles, cyclists, vans, pop-up tents, RV's, and a few 'porta-potties' - it was quite a scene outside my office window.

Pray with me, and for me these next 100 days (and beyond)...there are so many thoughts roaming around in my head... so many emotions swirling around in my heart... and I am beginning to feel overwhelmed... that nagging feeling that I'm forgetting something. But, I've checked my list ... and I have the back up of knowing my daughter-in-law will be here in a few weeks, so she'll be able to double check everything with me.

Part of my 'new life' begins next week. I'll begin picking the two boys up from their Dad's house each morning and taking them to school on my way to work. It means I have to get up 1/2 hour earlier, and make sure I'm ready on time, hope that they're ready on time, and we all get to where we need to be... they are not used to as much structure or keeping to a regular schedule, so we'll see how it goes.

Did I mention there are only 100 days to go!
