The wedding!!!

only 7 more days and I will no longer be a farrell!!! I’m getting married in 7 days! I can’t wait! and my brother is coming home from Arizona to walk me down the aisle!!!!!!!!! I love my brother lots, even if we do bicker like little kids whenever we see each other. I can’t wait! I will try and take some pictures this week while I am getting everything ready!!! I can’t wait!!!!

Well as of today, we are one month exactly from the wedding!!!! four weeks!!!

The title says it all!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait to be Mrs. Adam Johnson! so soon!

Last night after work Adam and I went to Olympia and we got our wedding rings!!! I can’t wait to get them back from sizing! but until then I have a naked ring finger. it’s a weird feeling.

Stevia, HCG drops & not being able to cook with butter…

Well I am getting married in something like 46 days and I have a lot to do!

most importantly… I need to fit into my wedding dress!!!!

Today I started a new diet Called the HCG Keitomist…. well I like things that are unhealthy for me.

I like BUTTER, BACON, SUGAR, ALFREDO, CANDY, STARCHES!!!! I Love them all so much!

On this diet I pretty much get to eat fish, chicken and weird vegetables… oh and apples and strawberries!

So, right now I am having a little snacky of Strawberries with Stevia on them… its better than splenda but of course not as good as real sugar, but I think it will have to do….at least for the next few months….. and then some more months after that.

So tonight I had shrimp and asparagus for dinner…. not too bad… but butter and shrimp are one of the best combinations on earth!!! besides bacon and chocolate of course… yum….

ok, i’m making myself crave food I can’t have…. ok bye!

The place that is all mine and I can vent all I want…

I just need to vent…. badly.

but I can’t do it in public……. because I don’t want to trash talk my husband to be to the world.    I just wish I had someone to talk to right now.   GRRRR

Dear Brother Aka: James Michael Farrell :

Dear Brother of mine,

Recently you have been on my mind a lot….  I have been thinking of the torture you used to put me through….and of course all the good sibling times we had together.  I love remembering us when we got along and when we talked… talked more then we do now. When I look around I see you… in a lot of things… and my BFF Becca and her brother remind me of us. A lot.  Basically I miss you and I wish I got to see you more often. so here is a picture blog of things that remind me of you….  Hope you enjoy! especially if you actually read this!

 

This Alarm clock just yells JAMES to me!

I have been eating a lot of Sixlets lately…and it makes me remember when we were little and mom would buy us candy… I would always get something along the lines of nerds…and you got sixlets! I was always to jealous that you made the better decision with getting the long rope of sixlets!!!

I was looking at some pictures yesterday as I was unpacking… and you had a shirt on with this on it!!!

Snickers… our dog.   I miss him a lot.

Mountain Dew Live Wire…. Do you drink any of the new ones? I like the blue colored one…… yum raspberry citrus

Westport. that is all. just the word westport… but here is a picture of the beach anyway..

and one final thing that I can think of right now…    Guinness stout… I know you dont drink anymore… but it still makes me think of you everytime I see it…  P.s I don’t like it.

Ok, well that is all for now! I just was thinking about my Big Bro and wanted to give a shout out! Love you James Michael Farrell!!!

Love your little sister,

Maureen Elizabeth Farrell

I am so content tonight

Hi Readers!

Do I still have readers since I hardly post? do you use google reader? I do! it’s a wonderful way to keep track of blogs that I follow!

 

Anyway, I am soooo content tonight! I have so much to be happy about!

 

1. I am getting married to an amazing Adam Alexander Johnson in July!

2. We have just purchased our first home together!!!!!! and it is amazing by the way!

3. I have heat in my new house so now I am only cold sometimes…. like when I am really super sleepy…. (right now. lol )

4. I have a kitchen full of new appliances and cupboards full of food to cook on them!

5. I have a gas stove! I love cooking on gas stoves! I am such a better cook when using gas, you have no idea how true that statement really is.

 

Well it is late.. I just felt the need to post something!

 

Bye!

 

P.s I have the most wonderful friends in the world!

I was on a roll… but now i’m off.

I was blogging there for a little while and it was fun… and then I ran out of fun things to talk about. oh well

well it’s the new year! I have a Nephew who shares my Birthday with me! whoo hoo! I love the little man!

I am really looking for a new job…so let me know if you hear anything!!!!!

Adam and I have FINALLY set a REAL wedding date! July 9th, 2011! Whoo hoo! and the planning has started again!

Have you ever wanted something so badly and it’s just barely out of your grasp? if only my job wasnt so lame and actually paid enough… I just want life to begin.

Adam and I are putting our trust in god and we know that he will make things happen when the time is right… even if it is not my timing, but his.
Thank you Jesus for your Love.
Now teach me patience!!!!

:)

I feel so much better when I listen to Jesus music then when I listen to secular music.  There is just something about people singing about their love for god, his Awesomeness, his Miracles and the love the LORD has for us.   I love it.

So why do I listen to Secular music? Basically because I love how it sounds…. not really the words, because really all they say is trash.

“Oh, Happiness By the David Crowder Band is AMAZING! I love it! I could listen to it for hours.

Last night something amazing happened, ok well Amazing to me.     For the last year or so I have been praying for God to teach me patience, and I guess it has been working because I feel more at ease with just waiting for the right time to get married. well last night, one of the ladies from our church wanted to pray for me, and one of the things she prayed for me about was patience. I haven’t ever said anything to anyone about my patience.

I know that is just a small thing, but it just shows that God does listen to us, and hears our prayers.  Thank you LORD.

On another note…

Adam is in the big city of LAS VEGAS, NEVADA right now… he keeps sending me cool pictures so he must be having a fun time.  I do miss him, but I did kinda welcome this little mini break to have time to myself, as i’m sure he did too. I hope he brings me home a cool present!!!   I love presents from when people go places, I just like to know that people think about me.

Right now I am baking a cake, I should have just come home after work to bake it, but whatev.  I enjoyed dinner with my family and meeting with my friend. I feel more at ease tonight then I have in quite a few weeks, I hope I sleep well tonight.

I have to go…. I need to make chocolate icing…. hopefully it turns out well!

Bye!

Ok Guys… This is a little disheartening…

nineteen views in one day and no comments? really. I know…. I feel like i’m begging for comments but I just need some words of affirmation.

Just a few little things….

Ok,  just a few things I need to mention….

 

 

1. How is it that I am allergic to the one thing you can’t be allergic to??? HYPO-ALLERGENIC Make up… I mean really come on?! not only make-up but other hypo allergenic things too.

 

2.  My Cat is out to get me. she bats at my eyelids while I am sleeping so she can wake me up. I tried locking her out of my room just to see if she had changed her mind on the whole “lets scratch at the door for an hour and not let Maureen sleep thing”…. Just to let you all know, this little thing has not changed.  Callie is in a very needy mood, she needs love all the time. it could be that way because I am gone all day… or she is just a needy cat…. I thought cats were supposed to be independent?

 

3.  It is now fuzzy boot shoe wearing, wonderful Pea-coat putting on, touk hat topping off my head weather. So if you see me around wearing many prints that do not match, it is because I am wanting to be warm…. not that I am color blind. I promise.

 

okloveyoubye!

 

P.s my PUD bill went up $7 last month….. darn.   i’m not looking forward to the next cold months to come…  should I start a “Help Maureen pay her electric bill fund’?  I think so.
