#7QT: A week of little sleep, laughs, tears


A week in review

Saturday:  After spending most of the day addressing wedding invitations and stuffing envelopes (with a brief yoga break), Bryan and I went on a real, fancy date to a sushi restaurant in my town.  We rarely go on *real* dates because we use our budget up just traveling to see each other, so this was a treat.  Thanks, Groupon ;)

P.S. I don't each sushi

 Sunday:  We went to 11:45 am Mass with my mom, dad, and brother.  Afterwards, we chowed down on a yummy breakfast casserole I made!  As my fiance told me, "You're getting so domestic."  Then he gave me a big ol' smooch.
 
Monday:  It was my dear friend N.'s birthday, so after work I went to his house and had dinner and dessert with his family.  This year, I wasn't sure what to give him, but then remembered when we're at the mall, we gobble down samples of Teavana tea.  I think he enjoyed the big bag of blueberry tea I gave him!

 Tuesday:  After work, I went shopping for wedding shoes...but got distracted by things like this instead:

Please show up in my closet.
Wednesday:  After having terrible insomnia/wedding angst, I finally got two hours of sleep and had a pounding headache, so I called in sick to work and spent most of the day napping and emailing wedding vendors.  Any tips on quieting the mind?  I've been taking melatonin, sometimes having a night cap, trying to more active...

 Thursday:  My grandparents live around the corner, and I try to visit them every few day.  We had a nice chat and they spoiled my family's dog with treats!  Later that night, my dear friend E. (we've been friends since 2nd grade) and I held a gab session over the phone and shared a lot of laughs.  Love her!

 Friday:  Tonight I'm going to Pizza Hut!  Yesss!  Stuffed crust!!!  Don't judge me.

 Have a great weekend!

 P.S.  I'm missing my Papa and just want to be in Castel Gandolfo hugging him.  *tear*  Praying for our next Pope!  Holy Spirit, guide us!

  1. I adore how you have your 7 Quick Takes set up on a daily basis instead of a list of 7! I might try that out next week. :) Thank you for wandering over to my blog today. :)

  2. You know, I had a strong urge to hug the Pope yesterday, too! I've always loved him, of course, but never felt an actual desire to hug him before.

    And that sushi! You don't like it?! Girl, you crazy =) Have a good weekend!!

    1. I test my taste buds out every once in a while to see if I like..but...nope! The sushi is also just too huge for me. I need the kiddie menu.

  5. Haha, you beat me! I was going to comment over here to show that I mentioned you, but you have already left me a comment!

    I haven't had "real" pizza in....months. Real as in not homemade. I think I might drool a bit... :)

  6. Wow ... all my Bright Maidens are turning into Bright Matrons! :^)=)

    Who can blame you for stuffed crust pizza?

    I miss Papa Bene too. Fortunately, it appears he won't stop writing, so God please grant him a few more years for him to enrich our understanding.
