We're now officially in the last month before the roommate wedding.
And tonight our house has been taken over by bridesmaids needing their dresses fitted.
Lots of giggling, and comments about weight and shoes, and what bra is the right one to wear under the dress.
It's wedding central again, and for the moment, I'm more amused than stressed by it. Let's pray that it stays that way for the rest of the month, especially when the stress of the impeding move starts stacking up as well!

Quoting Again...
From the calendar on my desk, which apparently has picked the month of June to deeply strike and convict my heart...
"Faith is a gift of God. It is a pure gift, and only he can bestow it. At the same time, he passionately desires to give it to us. He wants us to ask for it, because he can only give it to us when we ask for it." (Catherine de Hueck Doherty)

Musings...
I have some thoughts in process... my drive in to work this morning was full. Sometimes I wish you could all spend a day in my head, and see the way the thoughts carry me around, see the different connections. Sometimes the connections and directions surprise even me.
There are many places I could go this morning, but I think I want to write them out somewhere other than a public space first.
I'm thinking about imperfection. About friends traveling. About transition. About discerning character.
I'm thinking about the shallower things too. Like the fact that the skirt I wore today may perhaps be a bit higher waisted than I thought, and could cause some discomfort through the day thanks to my piercing adventures on the weekend. And the fact that I dress differently for work when I'm meeting outside clients or sales reps. And the fact that I'm really bored with this "eating 3 meals a day" concept, but am sticking to it anyway. And the fact that my house is going to be invaded by the "attack of the bridesmaids who need dresses altered" again tonight, which means it'll be loud and obnoxious (and our internet still isn't working properly, preventing me from hiding in my bedroom.) And the fact that it's Wednesday, which means this could be a total gong show of a day.
More later!!
