Today I arrived at work at 7:30am. Normally, I arrive at 9:00am, but my dad had a breakfast meeting, so I said that I would start early. The good news is that I will be able to leave the office at 3:30pm, instead of 5:00pm. The bad news is that I'm exhausted and just want to curl up and go to sleep under my desk!

As promised, I'm going to attempt to be a more consistent blogger and really provide a glimpse into what it is like to be a bride two weeks before her wedding. After serving up and cooking side dishes for the roast chicken my mom had left for us yesterday, I spent the evening being pampered. First I went for a pedicure... which I should have had a LONG time ago. Not that my feet get really gross with callouses or bunions or anything like that, they really just needed a boost in the looks department.

After spending over an hour at the nail salon, I went to the tanning salon. I KNOW, I KNOW... tanning is so bad for your skin... but when the groom is outside in this crazy heat and sun every day doing landscaping, and I'm stuck inside at a computer, I don't want to look like a ghost next to James in the wedding pictures. So I've been going about once a week to attain a healthy glow. Except that last night, the owner of the salon told me that I could go in for 15 minutes. I was skeptical, since I haven't been tanning in about 10 days, so my base colour isn't as dark... but he insisted. And sure enough, I got a on my face! The rest of me is fine though.. but I'm still frusterated. Next time, I'm just going to tell that guy how long I want to go in and I'm not going to let him convince me otherwise.

When I got home, James was working on the slideshow and cover page for the program! It's nice that James is such an involved groom. He has given his input all the way through, and as a result, I think our wedding will reflect OUR taste and not solely my taste.
