The Voice

Have you all seen the new show called "The Voice"? 

I watched it last night on Hulu because I missed it on Tuesday night.

Adam refused to watch it with me. His exact words were something like "I don't want to watch it. It's stupid. They already have an American Idol & X Factor!"

Well, my dear, sweet, soon to be husband, this is NO American Idol.

This is so much better than American Idol.

Yes, I said that.

I was totally sucked in. 

The show is hosted by Carson Daily - Hello TRL flash backs from middle school.

The Judges:

Adam Levine - Holy Hotness.

Cee Lo Green - Forget you, enough said.

Christina - What a girl wants!!

Blake Shelton - I die. 

Seriously. Amazing. The 4 judges are hilarious together. The talent is there & the best part, they're judged solely on their voices. 

So far I am rooting for Team Blake, Team Cee Lo & Team Adam. I just wasn't feeling Team Christina. 

So have you seen The Voice? What were your thoughts? Whose team are you rooting for?

So What Wednesday

It's Wednesday, again, & I'm back for So What Wednesday with Shannon!

Go on over & link up if you want to play along!

(Shannon - I can't get your button to work? Sorry!!)

So what if I sat outside my office this morning pressing the "unlock" button on my car key faub pissed that the office door wasn't unlocking. It's been a long week, alright?

So what if I haven't blogged this week. I have a lot on my mind but it's not anything I want out in the public. I'll blog about it sooner or later. When I have more answers.

So what if I called Adam this morning & made him come home because I "saw someone in our wood shed" & he got home to find no one there & nothing missing... I'm stressed & apparently seeing things?

So what if I called Adam instead of the police when I thought I saw someone in our wood shed.. Apparently, my first thought was that he would protect me. Isn't that a good sign?

So what if I am pissed that the iPhone 5 might not come out now until September. I've been waiting for years for this damn phone to come to Verizon & I want the newest edition. 

So what if I give up & go buy the iPhone 4 in June. I have been due for an upgrade since March & I want an iPhone dang it! 

So what if I haven't thought much about the details in the past week. Yes, I realize that there are 10 days until my wedding & most brides are stressing about all the little details. Lately, I have more important things on my mind. 

So what if I miss my cousin, Amber, today. She's been heavy on my heart lately. 

So what if I didn't tell Adam the entire truth as to why my dress alterations went from $140 to $435. He would have thought I was crazy & told me to deal with the ugly bustle. 

So what if I changed something MAJOR to my dress because I didn't want it to take away from my floral.. It's all about the details, ladies!

So what if I can't stand a certain florist in PDX & every time I get an email from her I want to scream. I unsubscribed lady!! I UNSUBSCRIBED! No one cares that you're going to be on SMP (which by the way you weren't even published when you said you were going to be), no one cares that you were on the Today show & then did CRAPPY arrangements for it. Yes, you're talented but you're not God's gift to brides like you seem to think you are. News flash - If your head gets any bigger it's going to pop! If you have talent but lack customer service you're not going to continue to grow. Take notes, lady! 

Well, that is the end of my So What Rant today.

I am going to ask a favor of you all. 

Please pray for my Uncle Ronny.  

He's suffered from a stroke last week & has a long road of recovery ahead of him. Also pray for his wife, Leck & my cousins April & Brooke. Please, just pray for my family during this difficult time. We could all use extra love & support right now.

Insanity!

Happy Thursday!

Seriously, it's Thursday already??

It has been insane at our house for the past week. I haven't been home before 10 at all since Wednesday last week! We've had vendor meetings, ceremony planning sessions, ceremony music planning sessions, hair & makeup trial run, ect.

I literally crawled into bed last night at 11pm (I usually go to bed at 9) & had just about fallen asleep when I said to Adam "I thought you were making me chili??" He replied "I thought you were getting home before 11!" How sad is that? I didn't even realize that I hadn't had dinner until I was almost asleep.. I didn't end up getting up to eat. I was too tired!

I guess this goes with out saying that I'm exhausted! I'm trying not to neglect you all. 

I promise to be back soon & have something worthy of sharing :)

Friday's Confessional

Happy Friday!

I am linking up with Mamarazzi today for Friday's Confessional!

Link up :)

I confess that I'm annoyed to be working a full day today. I usually only work about 4 hours on Friday's. I know I should just be thankful to have a job & to usually have a very flexible schedule on Friday's but I'm so not feeling a full day today.

I confess that I'm the worlds worst friend & sister in law right now. Our friend & my sil recently went on GF diets & asked me to email them some recipes.. I still haven't done so! I feel terrible because I know how hard it is to go GF. 

I confess that when my sister got me Katy Perry's newest CD for Christmas I had planned to take it back. I just wasn't a big fan of her first CD & I wasn't in love with any of her songs that were out at the time. That CD has been sitting on our dinning room bar waiting for me to get my butt in gear for 5 months. Yesterday I thought that maybe, just maybe, it might have ET on it - it dose & I got overly excited! Adam may have looked at me like I'd lost my marbles. 

I confess that I'm a hypocrite. After this post last week I peeked at my registry. Actually, that's a lie, I stalked my registry. I did wait until after my shower though and it really wasn't my fault. My mother pretty much taunted me with it. She was looking at it for gift idea's (yes, I was sitting right next to her) and she kept saying "Holy crap, that's fulfilled, fulfilled, fulfilled, fulfilled.. Wow, Oh my gosh. Wow, you guys have a lot of people who love you. Wow! Fulfilled.." I mean really, how could a girl NOT peek at that point??

I confess that I'm helping Adam write his vows. He's been sending me texts as he thinks of things he'd like included & I'm putting it all together for him. Yes, I'll know his vows long before we read them to each other at the ceremony. 

I confess that while receiving the texts to help him verb his vows I've cried at least three times. I'm the luckiest girl in the world. Seriously. I can not wait to be able to call him my husband.

I confess that I don't want our wedding to be over. We've had so many people tell us that we'll be glad when it's over but I don't feel that way. I love our florist & our stationary designer.. I don't want it to be over simply because I don't want to not have a reason to email, call, or text them a few times a week. I am ready for it to be here though. 

I confess that I'm feeling overwhelmed and overly emotional. Is that normal with three weeks to your wedding?

I confess that I am so glad it's Friday. 

Have a fabulous weekend!

So What! Wednesday!

It's Wednesday again, friends!

I heard a funny joke last week & wanted to share it with you. I'm sure you all will appreciate it on this lovely (rainy in PDX) Wednesday!

After Monday & Tuesday even the Calendar says "WTF"! 

Funny, right?? :)

I am playing a long with Shannon again this week with So What! Wendesday!

Link up & let it out! Trust me, you'll feel better after your rant ;)

So what if I've been looking forward to this post since Sunday. :) It's great to have one day a week to just let it all out!

So what if I am tired, overwhelmed & a little bit cranky today. I'm 3.5 weeks away from my wedding - this girl ain't sleeping much! Give me a break!

So what if I'm rooting for the Lakers the rest of this week. I want the Blazers to take on Dallas in the first round of the play offs! So GO LAKERS!

So what if I still haven't gotten to the laundry that I mentioned last week. We've been busy & that laundry isn't going anywhere. Oh, laundry fairy..? Are you out there? 

So what if I've been caught singing & dancing in my car every day this week to & from work. That is the only 25 minutes that I get anymore & I'm soaking it up!

So what if I've been working my way around Lent. I gave up prepared coffee! Dumbest decision ever. I figure that I can run across the street & purchase a brewed coffee & add my own creamer & that's not cheating. My goal was to avoid purchasing chia tea latte's & mocha's! Mission accomplished. I believe Jesus understands my heart!

‘Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine
And I bet we’d get along just fine
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
And I bet He’d understand a heart like mine

Happy Wednesday! :)
