Yesterday involved a lot of self-reflection and realization and TODAY was full of confirmations, motivations, and reminders. What did I learn? Le Grand Courtage says it perfectly: Embrace Life. Dream Big. Accept All Invitations.

Anyone who knows me, knows I love tequila, and really everything Mexican that I can consume. So, how do you think my day went when I was too sick to celebrate Cinco de Mayo? I’ll give you a hint...not good.

....instead of saying “I have to do this, this and this…”, I GET to do this, this and that! What a difference a word makes! I ordered my hanger, designed our welcome boxes and my last laser hair removal appointment was today too! So much for being sick!

I’ve had better days for sure! I’m feeling behind with planning and I think I can feel a cold coming...I got the blues today and am so ready for it to be over. At least, I’m a little bit closer to choosing a father/daughter dance song... Is it tomorrow yet?

So, I may have pushed the envelope too far today because I’m not feeling too good physically and psychologically. At least we got our champagne confirmation for the wedding...that helps a little!
