Foot Surgery!!

this past week i had surgery on my foot to remove my bunion!! It was a little out of the blue that i decided to do it, but i figured i dont have children, i dont have personal issues, i dont live on the third floor of an apartment so i can handle having only one working leg for a while. So Tuesday morning i had my bunion removed! And now tomorrow i'm going to visit my doc to see about when i'm getting my pin and stitches taken out. It looks (from what i can see under my bandage) really bruised and purple, i'm really not looking forward to seeing stitches and a metal pin sticking out of my foot. But i'm excited to see if theres much difference in how it looks, i hope so.

I've just been at home googling couture wedding dresses and well, anything wedding b/c its an industry i adore and love and cant wait to actually dive two feet in to plan my own,...so that kept me pretty pre-occupied while marc studyed and went to work/school. I could be doing that for another week b/c they might tell me it could be another week before i go back to work (pin has to come out before i go back to work). And my lovely old college roomate volunteered to give me a ride to work every day! What a blessing for her to pick me up. :o) So all is well until i hear about my foot at the doc's tomorrow. Stay tuned!

College Football



This past weekend started the opening day of college football season. Marc and I went up to Austin to help twin brother move into his new apartment and get him organized. Being that its Labor day weekend, we decided to come back on Sunday so we'd have all of Monday to chill out and have a day to ourselves. Well its all been grocery shopping and laundry, which is great b/c its been a really long time since i've washed clothes. I feel like i get organized all over again when i do laundry b/c what gets washed has to be put away, and that always makes getting organized happen.

The tailgate for the game was great though. We saw a few people from a few years back and got to chat it up a bit and say hello. Because we didnt have tickets to the game, we went to Cain and Ables to watch some of the game and then went back to nick's apt to watch the US soccer game. Marc decided that was more important than the football game and i was all for it. i was exhausted from moving nick into his apt. So i fell asleep while marc watched the soccer game. All in all it was a nice weekend... wish i could have sat by the pool the whole weekend but i think it turned out pretty good.
