Miscellaneous Posting

I am very happy to say that by using coupons and store loyalty cards, I saved $145 in a month. This was the first month I kept track of my savings. Dorky me set up a nice Excel spreadsheet that keeps track of it for me. I wanted to show my fiancé just how important coupons and sales are, especially now we are planning a wedding!!!

Speaking of wedding, I am getting a head start on the planning process. I signed up on The Knot. I am very impressed by the site setup and all the information that they have on there to help organize your planning. I went ahead and started our wedding website. The guest list has been developed, we will be collecting physical addresses soon! Of course, we got an early jump on our registries (Target and Bed Bath and Beyond). They are far from being complete however!

I am hoping to get some input on places to hold the wedding and reception! Please feel free to send me a message! I have a couple ideas in mind. We're looking for something country, rustic, natural. it is going to be a fall wedding (October 20, 2012 hopefully). I know several of my Facebook friends have had some beautiful weddings, so any advice would be appreciated! Also, I am looking to find out about costs....I have no idea how much anything runs. I am going to try and do as much of it as possible on my own. One last wedding thing, anyone know any good justice of the peaces? We are not looking for a religious ceremony.

Switching gears (no pun intended), I am hopefully returning to work tomorrow afternoon assuming the doctor rewrites the note. I have been out of work since Oct 20th due to some weird dizzy thing. After a lot of rest, I am finally well enough to safely drive a school bus. I am excited to go back, plus I want to show off my gorgeous ring! Lol.
