317 dtg!!!!

I suddenly became semi-stressed out last night, after realizing all of the things that need to be done within the next few weeks before xmas. It reminded me of the last few years of college and highschool when I had millions of things to do and was always under a deadline....I couldn't believe I was feeling this way when I'm not even in school!!

Paintings to be painted.
Cookies to be baked.
Appointments to go to.
Xmas gifts to be purchased.
Bills to be paid.
Holiday parties to be planned.
And.....all on top of thinking about my wedding.

I know that I should be putting the wedding off for the month, but I have to keep up on a couple things. Like my invitations......

I stopped by the local scrapbooking store to see if they had the patterned papers that I have been looking for. Sure enough they did, so now I just need to make a mock-up of what Casey and I supposedly want. Then, hopefully I can order the papers through work and use my discount! Whoopeee!!!

Another thing that I am always on the lookout for is parts of the decor for the reception/ceremony. I haven't been able to find any inexpensive damask fabric that I can use to make the table runners. Everything on the internet and eBay is going for $8-9 a yard. Yikes!

I did stop into Joann's Fabrics and found a couple patterns that would work, for a little bit less. $6.99 a yard. That still seems like a lot, but I have no idea where I am going to find anything for less.

P.S. Giving a shout out to Aunt Betty who may be joining the tiny audience of this blog. Hello Aunt Betty!
