Two points before I head out for work:

1. I've decided against attempting the duathlon. My fiance and I agree that I would be pretty upset with myself if I fell off my bike a week before my wedding. And I have developed a habit of falling.

2. My sweetie scored some last minute tickets to the Django/Jerry Jeff Walker concert last night at Bass Hall. It was a great show by both bands. I think that Django was a little out of place- although he did make a joke that the 3 people there to see him were sitting on the 4th level. He also showed up in a t-shirt, jeans, and flip flops.
Jerry Jeff was great. This was my second time to see him at Bass Hall. Last time was an acoustic, story telling atmosphere. Last night he had his band with him. Both concerts were equally enjoyable. One thing I thought was strange- he played Redneck Mother both in the concert and the encore. We concluded that Django was probably supposed to join him at the encore but was probably already down the street at 8.0's.

We went to see Tommy Alverson last night. The little BBQ joint in North Richland Hills had some tasty beef and good tunes. This confirmed to us that we made a good choice for music at the reception. I got home last night and checked my mail. Two rsvp cards accounted for! It was very exciting.

Invitations are in the mail. (Sigh of relief). I still have a laundry list of thing to do. I'm starting to have dreams at night about the wedding. Last night, my groom was wearing a dark purple shirt with a blue and green polka dot tie.

There's a phrase we use at home jokingly: Bridezilla. I'm doing my best not to acquire this title.

We had a great weekend.

After tackling the leaves Friday, we made a trip to our new favorite place: Home Depot. One lawn mower, LEAF blower, weed eater, bag of weed & feed, and can of paint later, we returned home and painted our first room. The master bath. Thanks to the genius of my better half, the room is much warmer and inviting. Is a bathroom supposed to be inviting?

He spent most of the day Saturday tackling our lawn while I worked on cleaning. The difference is night and day compared to when we moved in. We also tried to get the homemade irrigation system running. Someone installed piping and sprinkler heads along the edge of the backyard but over the years it has gotten full of mud, etc. It seems to be working much better now and we'll probaly use it for a while.

It is also our year for Spring Break with the kiddos. So far, they've gotten to go swimming and to eat at Trail Dust with the big slide. I believe that Six Flags may be in our future.

I look forward to Friday's because my assistant is not here. I then don't feel guilty for taking care of my personal to-do's. Today I've spent some quality time catching up with a friend of mine from high school. She got married about 4 years ago and we've since lost touch. She quit her job 9 months ago to have her baby girl, Azlyn. And now she's bored. She said she's not in to the mommy-club thing. So she's trying to catch up with her old girlfriends.

I respect that. I think alot of people experience changes in their life that affect the closeness of some of their friendships. We've been friends since we were young and always will be, no matter how many times we talk each year. I have friends that don't understand these changes. Too bad- I hope they will someday.

As for my domesticatedness, big plans this weekend to clean out the covering of leaves at our house that blew in with the wind storm Wednesday night. We swept and cleaned all leaves from our property last weekend. I sense a pattern here. We're gonna have to look into that pool cover.

Weather should be nice. I hope to take advantage of the sun and get some sun on my white meat. Can't get too much-I have my bridal pics on Monday.

TaTa!
