Yessss!!! My long-awaiting vacation is here. Well..almost. I have to work tomorrow for a few hours, but Saturdays are always quiet. I have been looking forward to some time off for months now. There comes a time where I feel like I just can't do any more work without taking a well-deserved break.
Yesterday we had a little cake party for my birthday at work. I didn't even know anyone knew it was my birthday. Someone was sneaky and found out! As much as I feel ready to move on and try something new career-wise, I will certainly miss my work pals.
Today is yet another unseasonably warm November day. I FINALLY went back to the gym today after a very, very long hiatus. I found that taking such a long break has put me back where I started, where after less than a mile run, I found myself winded and ready for a drink of water. Somewhat embarrassing, but I am really going to try to start going again on a regular basis. I did do some ab and arm exercises as well, so all was not lost. While a lot of my reasons for exercising again stem from my wedding (and wearing of my dress) being less than a year away, I really just want to start feeling more healthy and more energized.
Later on today we are meeting with our priest to go over some stuff for RCIA. I still find myself really unsure about becoming an official Catholic. My fiance is Catholic but really isn't that into it. And I find myself swaying between feeling very comforted and happy with my experience there, and questioning if it is really the right path for me. I still think at this point I will not end up going through the entire process of baptism and everything, but time will tell. We can still get married in the church since my fiance is Catholic, and that is what we are planning to do-because it is important to him from a family and tradition perspective. At first I was really not into the whole thing, but I realize that marriage is a lot about comprimise, and if it is important to him, I am ready to have a Catholic wedding. For me personally though, I feel that my religious perspective is still in the making. I'm just glad that the church we attend is so welcoming and understanding-I really didn't know what to expect when we first sat down with the priest to discuss our intent to marry in his church. Things all in all are really turning out wonderful when it comes to our wedding! I find myself becoming more and more excited every day when I think about the ceremony and reception. I can't wait to just spend a whole day with everyone I care about most, and I can't wait to be finally be married to my fiance.
Well...that's all I have for now.
Until next time!
