The more time that goes by the more I think. I think about Spring Break and how beautiful Alaska is. I think about how I want to move there and see more. I think about how even though I am told what a great job I am doing at work, that my heart just isn't in it anymore. I used to have this huge desire to teach. Now, well, that desire seems to be gone. I find myself thinking about how I can't wait to not have to work. It sounds horrible, I know. I don't know what is going on right now. I am pretty sure it is just the first year teacher stress, plus the stress of being a special services teacher, and the added stress of planning a wedding. I find myself thinking of other careers I could go into. There is nothing that jumps out at me the way that teaching did. Once Brian and I decide to start a family I want to be a stay at home mom, so I keep thinking about that as well. That could be a way to not have to go back next year...but I know I have several young ladies expecting me to be there and support them. I can't let them down, they have had a lot of that. There hasn't been very much consistency in their lives as guard members. I want the program to have some more consistency to get it built back up. It needs that. So, I will stay for at least another year or two. By then Brian and I will be close to possibly moving to Alaska.

Checks!

We had a good meeting with our coordinator as well as with the bakery. Brian and I talked with the owner of the bakery and he gave us a great deal on our cake! We're both extremely excited about our cake...it is very unique!! Even the owner of the bakery is excited about it! Brian and a couple of the guys in the wedding party also got fitte for their tuxes! We're 70 days from the big day! We still have a few incidentals to purchase, but for the most part we're ready.

Yet another blog

I decided to start another blog. I'm not sure why, but I have. I have one for the wedding and another personal one, but I apparently thought I needed one more.

Things have been crazy lately. I thought things would die down after Winter Guard was over, but things have not calmed down at all. If anything they have become even more crazy. The wedding is a little over 2 months away and we still have a lot to do. Surprisingly enough, I'm not really freaking out. I am a little bitter about the bachelor/bachelorette party we planned for this weekend that hardly any of our wedding party will be at...but I will get to see my cousin and a couple friends that I haven't seen for a while. Like always, there's good and bad things about it. Brian wants to go sky diving. I want to go too...I'm just not sure that there will be enough time this weekend. Not only are we having our joint party, but we are also meeting with our wedding coordinator and talking to the bakery that we want to have make our cake.
