Slammed

Hi everyone.

So, it's been quiet on the blog, which either corresponds to a period of super boredom in Real Life, or a period of insane business. In this case, it is the latter.

In the last month I have:
Applied for a new job

Been running videoconferences all over the place at my current (big girl) job.

Tread a fine line between being emotionally disconnected from life in Cooperstown while still trying to be involved in life in Cooperstown. (e.g. packing boxes for a longed for move while cultivating a new relationship with a local spinning guild.)

Travelled 2,684 miles across the country by car.

Made stops on the journey at Niagra Falls, Clarendon Hills, Des Moines, Atlantic, and Aurora to get soaking wet, be showered with presents, fumble a catering meeting, eat some tasty tacos, be showered some more, introduce families, attend a beautiful wedding, check out our wedding venue, touchdown the catering meeting, and interview for previously mentioned job.

Celebrated the one year mark in my engagement to Brett.

Found a new wedding website (mywedding.com/brettandkategarrett) that is easier to write and remember.

Wrote and mailed thank you cards for showers.

Assembled and sent out wedding invitations. And if you think that Brett didn't assemble every single invitation by hand or that I didn't break out the calligraphy on every single envelope, well, you would be mistaken.

Got sick.

As if I couldn't see that one coming. So today I'm staying home from work and trying to relax. I've been sleeping for most of the day and am trying hard to feel better. I'll try to catch you up with some pictures soon.

Oh no!!!! Feel better soon. You and Brett have been super busy but the invitations will be beautiful and you have accomplished so much. Congratulations on the one year anniversary! Hope you had a nice celebration.

Sounds like not enough sleep and too darn much of everything else. Take extra special care of yourself, young lady.
