I DON'T have time for being SICK :(

So all weekend I felt fine and then randomly on Sunday night I looked up from doing wedding decorations and I told my mom that I felt like I was getting sick.  She told me it was just stress and that I needed to go to bed to get some good sleep in.  So Saturday night I went to bed, but in the middle of the night I began to feel so much worse that I hardly slept.  My throat felt like there was glass in it and my head was throbbing.  So Sunday morning I woke up in tears because I felt like I could hardly swallow.  So my dad being amazing and seeing that I really didn't feel good (I looked like crap) he took me to the urgent care by our house.  When I saw the doctor he took one look at my throat and was like I know exactly what this is, everyone has had this lately.  I was like ok what is it I don't have time for being sick I am getting married this coming Saturday!!  He told me that I had a horrible throat infection and that my glands were very swollen.  Though, he said since I was getting married so soon that we needed to kick this in the butty fast.  So he gave me a Zpack and Steroids to clear everything up.  All Sunday I was miserable... almost felt like death... that may be being too dramatic but I cannot handle throat stuff, it just kills me and when it hurts that bad to swallow I am done for.  So I went to bed pretty early last night and actually slept pretty well.  I woke up this morning and the pain is still kinda there but definitely not as bad as it was yesterday.  So I am about to go take my second dose of the Zpack and the second day of Steroids.  Honestly I do not know what I would have done without these meds... I need them to make me better FAST!!!!
So if you could please be in prayer that God heals me and I feel incredible by the Rehearsal on Friday night and the Wedding on Saturday!!!
I cannot believe it is getting so close... this is wedding week people, Thursday all the wedding festivities begin... I need to get better NOW!!!!

ONE WEEK LEFT :)

Ladies and Gentlemen... there is ONLY one week left until the BIG DAY!!! ---->>
(I have no clue why the post still says it's Friday because I am definitely writing this at midnight... which makes it Saturday!!!)
I AM GETTING SO EXCITED!!!!!  :)
All day today was stuff that had to do with wedding.  My mom was in a 4 1/2 hour meeting finalizing wedding stuff, I got my hair cut and colored, Shavaun and I packed my suitcase for the honeymoon (I was so glad she helped me... all her years of being a flight attendant paid off in the packing area--- I still have room  to spare!), and tonight we put wedding goodies together!
Seriously, I cant believe that the wedding is almost here!
Reagan sent me a message tonight that said one week from tonight he was going to have trouble sleeping and was going to be so anxious for the wedding day!!  So even he is getting super excited and so ready to see me!
I just feel so blessed that I am marrying the man of my dreams who loves God so much and is the most incredible man ever!
Pray that as the days get closer to the wedding, I stay calm and enjoy this time because it will go by in the blink of an eye!
The countdown is in FULL MOTION and there is no stopping it NOW... BRING ON THE WEDDING FESTIVITIES!!!!!

People Problems

I sit here today not able to understand people and there intentions at times.  I don't understand why it is so hard for people to look to find different solutions, or just simply to be happy in midst of chaos.
I don't understand how a man can be fired from the hotel where the wedding reception is supposed to be at in 9 days... with no notice, he was gone and the people at the hotel assure all the pieces will be picked up.  But is it really possible to pull off an event that you personally haven't been planning for a whole year??
I just sit here in confusion today... because honestly I don't need this kinda of stress right now.  This is supposed to be the happiest time of my life, but in the back of my mind I am wondering will everything really go off without a hitch??
I have my last dress fitting today and I am so excited to see how the dress turned out.... though, we are late because last night a crazy storm blew threw and all the lights are out on the main streets to take us to my dress fitting, so the roads are filled with crazy traffic. That is definitely an unexpected you cannot plan for!
I am sorry if I sound like I am complaining, I am just being real... because quite honestly I am just a little annoyed... my nerves are on edge... and that quite possibly may be because I am getting married in 9 Days!


One beautiful thing that is occurring today is my brothers high school graduation.  I am so proud of him, he has come a long way!  The spot light is on him today and that is the way it should be... it is his BIG day after all! I love you bubba and I will be cheering for you the loudest tonight when you walk the stage :)
