Cheater

I have a confession to make, one I am not proud of. I cheated. I have always had a strong sense of who I am and can resist temptation easily. I have never had a problem with infidelity, until now. It didn’t last long. I know that doesn’t make it better, but I somehow thought…

Sweating for the Wedding

60 days people. 60 days until I have to squeeze into a wedding dress and actually manage to walk, breathe, converse, and possibly even eat. This past weekend I had my final wedding dress fitting (eek!) and while it was awesome, it was also a little horrifying. The dress fits, I can zip it up…
