Taking a page from Pip's book and using this list to do a life snapshot. Making: my way through 2 weeks worth of emails. Cooking: something for dinner tonight, no idea what yet as I need to go to the store first. Drinking: my morning cappuccino. Reading:...
I'm a little over 3 months in to wedding planning, and a little less than 6 months away from the big day itself. It has definitely dominated my 2015 so far. For the most part it's been a fun experience, though it's also been a lot of work. Our wedding is on the small...
