Eeee! I’ve been Bee’d!

So once Jared and I got engaged, I started reading a ton of wedding blogs I found online. In recent weeks, one of them I’ve really enjoyed: Weddingbee.

Part of their site is a huge community of readers and the ladies who write the site, all chatting and sharing info, projects, news, etc. I’ve had a good time joining in, and I’ve found a few projects on there that would be easy enough to do for the wedding, and thus save money along the way. They also allow you to put up pictures of you’re doing for your wedding, and I posted the Save The Date cards, because, well, I thought they were cute/awesome, and apparently everyone that got them thought so too, from the reactions I’m getting.

Apparently Weddingbee thought so too, cos today, for the Gallery of the Day picture, where they go tromping through the pictures uploaded to the site and pick one to show off, they picked mine!

Eee! I feel so proud! And wish my handwriting had been better. ><

Productive

Yeah I know, I was bad in February. Between feeling “blah”, knitting like mad on a baby blanket for Breana, and trying to get wedding plans into shape, February wasn’t that great of a month for me. I had high hopes for March, though, and since this was the first weekend of March, I was hoping it was going to be a good one.

After a really good Friday (lots of little things that all either popped up in a good way or things that resolved themselves in a good way), I was looking forward to the weekend. Well, except for the one bad thing about Friday: Jared was sick. Thursday at lunch he was fine. By the time I got home, he was coughing and not sounding the best. By the time I went to bed, it was full on congestion in the lungs and misery for him. He ended up waking me up at 6am looking for a thermometer. Once we found it and he used it, it was over 101 degrees. :/ So he called in sick and stayed home while I went to work.

By the time I got home on Friday, he was still DOA on the couch, so I made sure he was okay, then off I went to upstairs to eat supper and pop a vitamin (hey, just in case!) Saturday started off better. He wasn’t quite as dead, and I ended up finally finishing the baby blanket for Bre. I did a little running around, hitting the yarn store for the first time in a while and grabbing myself some lunch (and Jared some OJ). Back home, I ended up dragging out the pair of black socks that I’ve been knitting on for forever and actually finished them off as a short-cuff pair of socks. I have enough yarn left over from them to make another pair of short-cuff socks, but I’ll do that later. And to top things off, I finished off the one fingerless mitt that’s been on the needles since Christmas.

Oh yeah, I’m a knitting goddess. /flex (ow)

Today, I actually wove ends in on all of the above projects, divided up some NON-BLACK yarn for yet another pair of socks (this time, I’m gonna try to get them to be higher than just above the ankles like all my other socks!), washed and dried the finished stuff, and have a batch of bagels rising in the kitchen. Jared’s upstairs killing stuff on his PC, and the cats are passed out in the living room.

Tonight, I have plans on making chicken & dumplings (and eating more vitamins), finishing the bagels (and prolly eating one fresh from the oven), and then working on the wedding invitations. Well, working on the invitations unless I get distracted by knitting. >.>
