But my blog hasn’t! Two days this week I had 100+ views. That, to me, is insane. Of course, the week where I feel like I have nothing to say!
Right now, it’s truly a countdown until my next event, on March 15 [which I cannot wait for!]. That is, unless I get some sweet February action headed my way! Hint hint! So, to tide you over, I’m hoping to come up with some creative and fun things for us to chat about.
Until then, some random Amanda facts [in list form, as per fact #1]:
1. I am list-y. As in, really list-y. I probably have lists about writing lists for myself. I just like things in their clear and precise space and form. I like to cross things off of my lists, and I like to, each day, know what I am getting myself into. If I don’t complete my list, I feel like a schlub. If I do, I get a great sense of accomplishment.
2. My favorite thing: Christopher Guestmovies. They’re like cult following mockumentary movies and I got into them a few years back. I’m sad that they’ve already made their last one [so they say- a girl can hope!], but I love to re-kindle that flame and watch them all endlessly.
3. I have one pair of shoes that I really love. I wear them to every single meeting I go to. They’re from Irregular Choice and they were about $120 a few years back. They’re a round toe simple black leather kitten heel. They’re perfect. I’ve had them re-heeled twice and re-souled once. Some day, I’ll have to let them go.
4. I’m crafty and tend to start projects I don’t finish. I’ve made 3 quilts [and started about 6!], I made the artwork in my bedroom, my silk comforter for my bed, endless amounts of baby clothes for friends, and tons of paper paraphernalia for random events and other needs. It’s a sickness. I’m totally driven by the idea of the “perfect cute _____”. I realize that when I have my own children, this may become an irreparable sickness.
5. My husband and I didn’t live together before we got married! I realize that in this day and age, it’s almost unheard of, but it was something we were committed to. Luckily, our first year of marriage was GREAT! I realize we truly are an exception to almost every rule, getting married young, not living together prior, and everything else we did. But, hey, I have no complaints- I truly love my life!
And of course #6. is how much I love my job. I can’t believe how lucky I am. It’s almost like an episode of The Twilight Zone, always thinking I’ll wake up and it won’t be real. But, every day I wake up and revel in how real this really is! I can’t thank all of my former clients enough for giving my the opportunity to work with them on their ever-so-important day, and I know that it’s all of YOU who make me who I am as a coordinator and friend to each of you. I can’t wait to see what the rest of my years have in store!
Here’s a weird picture I took the other day by myself on my camera [which doesn't have a zoom lens, and the lens makes this just a little bit too close for me to ever get a normal picture of my face...]
