Makes Sense

I am sick about hearing about Michael Jackson...but the latest gossip is that Janet will get his kids. This actually makes SENSE. The most sense of any of the Jackson craziness. Seriously...their almost 80 year-old grandparents who abused their father shouldn't raise them. That makes no sense. And the mom that gave them up for $$$. That makes no sense.

I love Janet Jackson. I have all her CDs and saw her in concert when I was little. :)

Enzo Update

Joey had to take Enzo to the vet this morning. He has been biting his tail and licking himself like crazy. He has especially been after his ears. Well...thank goodness my baby is okay!

He has an infection on his tail and the vet thinks that his allergies have gotten worse. We knew he was allergic to something, but just haven't figured out exactly what.

He is on antibiotics and we need to buy benadryl at the store. We will see how that works and then see if we have to do anything else about the allergies.

We are going to take him back next Thursday before we send him to Camp K-9 while his mom and dad are busy getting married and honeymooning.

I know everyone was worried. :)

9 DAYS!

I am continuing to procrastinate. So I thought I would give an update on my to-do list. Also, these will be some of my last posts on The Life of Joey's Girl. I always want to be Joey's Girl, but I have a new blog after the wedding. I am thinking about a theme or something...but I'll ponder that on the honeymoon. :)

I have noted what actually got done and added a few things. I also added and marked DONE a few things because it makes me feel good.

• DONE - Meeting at Hilton
• DONE - Print menus for rehearsal
• DONE - Pens for guestbook
• DONE - Pens for rehearsal frame thingy
• DONE - Print engagement picture to display at wedding
• DONE - Wrote out wedding dates of family for their pictures that are being displayed
• Friday - Give final rehearsal count to Carmela's
• Friday - Hair Trial (DONE - need to pick up hair pieces at mom's before trial)
• Pickup next week - Print programs for ceremony
• Bank
• Send final music list to DJ
• Still have a few last minute gifts to buy (DONE - Moms)
• Do last round of table seating (the hard parts are done!)
• Return menu to Carmela's
• OMG! I put this on my list twice! - Hair trial

I seriously do not want to even think about our list for this weekend!!!!!

Wow! 10 Days!

OMG! I can't believe our wedding is just 10 days away. My to-do list is super long. Everyone keeps asking to help...but I can't give up anything on the list. What is wrong with me? I actually gave my mom a bunch of stuff to do and of course she was all over it and done in 10 minutes. She has lots to help me with this weekend.

The list for the next three days is pretty lengthy.

• Meeting at Hilton
• Print programs for ceremony
• Print menus for rehearsal
• Give final rehearsal count to Carmela's
• Send final music list to DJ
• Hair Trial (need to pick up hair pieces at mom's before trial)
• Bank
• Pens for guestbook
• Still have a few last minute gifts to buy
• Print engagement picture to display at wedding
• Do last round of table seating (the hard parts are done!)
• Hair trial

WOW! Lots to do before I can even start my weekend to-do list. Typing this out makes me wonder why I am posting to my blog instead of working (yes, I have to work too) or doing anything on the list. I am procrastinating, which I am really good at. You would think with a year and 8 months to plan all this would be done.

Joe has a to-do list also, which I just have to trust will get done. However, it was a bit frustrating to go home yesterday and see that he decided 10 days before the wedding would be a GREAT time to powerwash our deck. Seriously? I actually told him it looks great and remembered that we are both procrastinators. I am actually glad it is raining today, so he won't powerwash and work on the list. :)

I have two big pieces of news...

1) Joe got us a photobooth for the wedding! I have wanted one since the beginning and it was just never a priority. Then a few months ago we called around and it was just too expensive. BUT then I found out that a local studio in town has one and I figured why not call...if they haven't booked it yet, we may get a deal...and we DID!!!! Yeah! Joe and I both think it will be super cool to have and we get copies of every picture taken!

2) I hired a wedding coordinator. Who hires a wedding planner 2 weeks before the wedding? ME! I just wanted a little piece of mind for the day-of and I am so glad. Since I met with Kathy on Saturday, my anxiety went from 200% to 150%. Much better.

Okay...I have to get moving with the gazillion things on my work to-do list.

My dog got out...
