Turquoise Tanktop: Express // Blue/Purple Skort: Vintage/Thrift // Peach Silk Pleated Flats: Urban Outfitters // Feather Head Band: Shi Shoe Store // Purple Earrings: H&M // Brown Belt: A gift
I’m super obsessed with Turquoise, in general. Clothing, accessories, decorative items- whatever! I love this color. We have plates, bowls, and cups in this color- not to mention my nails are the exact same shade as the dishes. I can’t get enough. I also can’t get enough of my stairs. 😉 They make the perfect stage for photos, but I suppose I can only take so many outfit pictures on the stairs, right?
I always feel a little strange posting these pictures to my Flickr because some people (that I know in real life) may find it a little strange.. or odd.. that I take pictures of myself appearing to have fallen down the stairs. I don’t really know.. I just like it? Haha. It’s some weird arty urge to do something different, I guess?
These are my wedding flats. I really love that I purchased inexpensive wedding shoes that I can wear daily if I chose to- not some pair of ridiculously priced heels that I’ll never find another reason to wear. I had to wear flats though, because I would have been taller than Nate. =)
We had dinner tonight with Nate’s Parents here at our house- we grilled out and it was yummy! We also got another wedding gift delivery that showed up at their house. I’ll have to take pictures of those pretty little items and show you all! I also need to show a few pictures from last night’s little get-together- it was a fun time and Brittany’s puppy made it 100 times more entertaining! But for now.. I am going to get off of the computer and see what Nate and I can come up with as far as entertainment goes. It’s another one of those extremely lonely feeling Saturday nights where we’re really aware of how .. lonely.. we are. Hah! Super glad I got dressed cute to go.. nowhere!
I've made an observation. And yes, I still read your blog. Sorry If thats a bother at all.
For two people who are in love, who just got married, and have an exciting life ahead of them… I have seen more loneliness in your blog than anything else. I don't understand it personally, and I guess thats why It's your blog and not mine. Enjoy the company of each other! In my years of seeing my parents, and my friends parents… there are nights they sat alone just being with each other. Not a date night, but a night where they had no friends or plans at all. God brought you and Nate together for a reason. Instead of dwelling on this, and making this a focus.. embrace it! It's a blessing that you get to spend some quality time together, which is ESSENTIAL in the first year of marriage. Don't take my word for it, look it up. It's important. Take your worries and make them blessings.
Friends come and friends go. You haven't lost friends. Sometimes God uses that for a reason to bring other things into motion. Maybe God has a reason for this…? The only person who knows is you.
I know my opinion is dirt, and means nothing. I'm not attempting to be a prophet or resemble a used car salesmen. I'm simply an old friend who still cares, who is reaching out to say… smile and wait on the Lord.

It's not a bother Nathan, if it was – you wouldn't be reading my blog. I promise you that. Thanks for your observation of my feelings. I'm sorry if I'm not portraying the vision of the "perfect marriage" in your eyes. I don't really think I *need* to defend my feelings to you, on my blog, but as much of a blessing as it may be- I struggle with change, even GOOD change. You've known me for a long time- you know that. You know I get OVER it. I'm a real person and I don't mind showing that now and then we feel alone as a newly married couple- it's real life and I'm not ashamed to be real on my blog. Even if it doesn't always show how Godly I am.
I'm aware that my time alone with Nate is wonderful and that I should embrace it and we do, but obviously being the ONLY married couple in our relatively small friend group CAN get lonely. I'm not asking for your pitty or anyone else's because I'm 100% happy and living a life that no one would have a reason to pitty- but I can have moments where I feel nostalgic in regards to friends. And I write about it here when I'm feeling it. If you're sick of reading about it, then quit reading about it.
Thank you for your very knowledgeable relationship advice. And your ever present religious advice. But you didn't tell me anything I don't know in my heart – it's my blog and I'll cry if I want to? Your opinion is not dirt to me. You are not dirt to me. I'll always care about you and I'll always be hurt over the loss of our friendship, and I'm not afraid to be vulnerable about it. I don't care what anyone thinks about it. But this just reminded me that you're condescending and cocky, and treat me like I'm an idiot- and that person is not someone that I would want to be friends with now. If you wanted to give me some *truly* friendly advice you could've left a nice comment saying you'd like to talk to me as a friend on AIM or something, and I would've obliged- believe it or not.
And I'll address this since you decided to bring it up- I didn't post that song to you, for you, about you- whatever. Nothing to do with you. I like that guy, and I think that song is really pretty and those lyrics stuck out to me in a really deep meaningful way. I just think it's beautiful. I'd be happy to let you know if it was about you, honestly. I got a new domain to start over- not to fill it back up with coded messages to you so quit looking for them here. They wont be here.
I'm sorry you feel that way, as I'm sorry you have felt the way you have for quite some time. It's all perspective with you, and it always has been. You read what you want, and you take from things what you want to take from them. My intentions were not to be cocky, condescending, or to make you feel like you were playing victim. I'm sorry that me bringing up God or relationships has made you feel inferior or like I'm treating you like an idiot. Thats not what I meant at all. The fact that you are vulnerable and honest in your blogs is the reason someone like me would reach out in the first place… If you don't want an honest in your face response, don't post honest in your face blogs.
I made an observation. If you wanted to take it further… AIM goes both ways.
There's alot we could say to each other, things that would cut straight to the core. Things about each other that are in our pasts. I always thought If anyone would understand, it would be you. But what does it matter? You take what you want, and leave the rest.
Have a good one.
That guy is a douche
Sheepskin must be saved for a prolonged time prior to they is often adopted on boots. Large vessels that maintain from three,000 to 15,000 liters of salt water wherever are utilized in tanneries. Skins swish slowly and gradually inside of. This really is totally a reduced approach lasting close to 10 days till the hides are tanned correctly that may be all set to be cut for UGG boots.
