Getting closer!

Only 3 months and 20 days left before I am Mrs. Spencer! I cannot tell you how excited I am to be Robert's wife! I think about it all the time, and I probably walk around with a goofy smile on my face-- if my co-workers didn't already think I'm crazy, I'm probably confirming their suspicions. :) He makes me so happy, and I know it sounds cliche-- but just when I think I couldn't possibly love him more than I do right now... I love him even more! I'll stop with the mushy stuff now. 

There are still a few things left to do in preparation for the big day, but I am surprisingly relaxed about it. I'm feeling more open to asking my mom and sisters to help with the details now. I asked my good friend Angela to be in charge of the ceremony and reception timing/details. She is one of the most organized people I know, and I'm confident that she'll keep things running on time and relieve a lot of stress for me! 

Lately, my mind keeps wandering to the house. I cannot wait to move into our new home, and am so excited to start decorating! Thank heaven for Robert, he humors me when I talk about how I want to decorate each room, and even has valuable input for me. :) We're planning to decorate our master bedroom/bathroom in a beach theme. My sister and I stopped by the house last weekend to see the progress, and I was thrilled to see that the bedroom has been painted a sandy tan color, and the bathroom a very light blue/green. Not turquoise, but very light blue-- almost like sea glass. It's going to go perfectly with our plans! I've been doing a little shopping, buying a few decorative things here and there. I'm looking forward to having a blank slate to make our own. :)

Since the accident, I'm feeling a little better every day. I'm still sore, and just when I think I'm pain free... I realize that I'm not. It's hard not to over-do things at work. I'm used to doing a fair amount of lifting, but now I rely more on my co-workers for that. I'm seeing a chiropractor for my neck and back pain, so hopefully that will help. My doctor gave me a referral for massage too, so I'm looking forward to getting some of these tight muscles loosened up! This is taking much longer than I expected. The emotional healing is taking even longer, which is frustrating. I'm still having a lot of nightmares about the accident, and get very anxious about driving, especially in the mornings when the streets are a little slippery. Its scary, but God continues to be faithful.

My life is good. I have Robert, our upcoming marriage, good friends, a new home, and physical healing. I continue to count my many blessings...
