My Crazy Past Few Weeks

Sorry it has been so long since my last post. We are only a few weeks away before the wedding! I have been so busy having meetings with House Plantation, sending out invitations, and finishing last minute things. Overall, the wedding experience has been pretty fun. It wasn't nearly as stressful as I thought it would be. That's probably because I started planning last May and I have a great wedding coordinator. I also had a TON of help with planning from my Aunt Jeanette. It's hard to picture everything, but I hope it comes out as I planned it.

My bridal shower is this weekend! My awesome friends JoLynn and Jean are hosting it. I was so excited when they offered to throw me one. It will be so much fun to have my friends and family there. I wish a lot more of my family could come, but since they are out of town, it makes it difficult.

Now for some not so exciting news....

I was informed I will be laid off October 1st. It was a huge devastation to me and the rest of my department. This was probably the greatest job to have while going to college, but I have let my anger go. Everything happens for a reason and I am excited about doing something else. After three years, it's time for a change.

My Aunt Suzy sent me an email the other day with this quote: "
Life is what happens when you make plans" - SO TRUE huh?" It definitely is true in my case. Before the lay-off I decided which degree I wanted and could take classes during the day. Now I will be back to taking night classes. I changed my degree plan to Business Administration with a major in Management. That degree has a lot of online and night classes I can take. Not to mention, I can find lots of jobs after I graduate.Thanks for everyone who has given me their support through this tough time.
