It's been a while.....sorry!

I am sorry for not posting in a while, but I've been extremely busy! Since my last post my life has become somewhat less stressful as far as school, but there are other things that have happened since then.

First, I am counting down the days till my graduation on May 10, 2008 at 10am! I have three more classes, four more months to go and I will be done. Then my sister is having her second baby, Samantha Dawn Price, sometime in February. My brother will be graduating from high school at the end of May, I can't wait for him to graduate....he has accomplished so much this past year with his grades. Then September 12th, will be here before I know it and I will officially become Mrs. Brett Turner! I have almost 8 months to go....yet I feel like I have so much to do. I need to find a dress, find a location (waiting on my grandparents timeshare information), determine what kind of food to have at the reception (thank-goodness only 15 people to feed), make my message in the bottle invitations, get our marriage license, and so much more. But we did get some things knock off the list of the "to-dos," our Save the Date announcements made and delivered (oh so cute!) and our registry. Brett had so much fun scanning everything, I think he really enjoyed that....I had my camera and totally forgot to take pictures.....and I scrapbook.....apparently it was not on my mind. 2008 will be the best year for me and Brett! We have so much to look forward to.

Ok, now for the things that suck in life....the little things that could be big ones. Our family found out that my Grandpa has a tumor between his skull and brain and Thank God and his angels for watching over him, it is NOT CANCEROUS!!!!! I am so relieved by that when we heard the news! The tumor he has is the smallest in the whole world and he is very lucky. They are not planning on removing it now, but will keep a watch on it every six months. But now the doctors have to figure out why he is going blind on occasion for up to five seconds (that he says seems like forever). Please pray they do find out what is going on with that.

Then my dad, who I love so much and I am a "Daddy's girl!" He is having surgery January 17th and having part of his tyroid or all of it removed. The lumps they found our NOT CANCEROUS but they are going to do the surgery anyways. Brett and I will be with my mom and dad for a couple of days to be there to help out and such. Please pray that everything is successful and nothing goes wrong.

Ok, I am all updated....thanks Laurel for reminding me about this....I finally have time while I am on break from school!

Oh, check out our wedding website:

My first blog!

Well, this is my first blog and this is a place for me to getaway from school, work, and my stressful life (my stress right now is school). I have come to realize that I have too much going on in my life and not enough time to relax. But I know come May 10, 2008 at 10am, I will be able to have more time for me and Brett, because I will not have the stress of school. I am looking forward to that day.

I know this is a getaway from school and how stressful it is now, but I need to vent. I am completely overloaded this semester and stressed out. I am taking Business Stats for the second time with the hardest professor in the school and I am not doing so well. I know the semester just started, but I really need to pass in order to graduate in May. Then my Strategic Management class is very hard and overloaded with work. Something is due everyday and she grades so hard and she is very critical. I am the type that I want to get all As in my major classes, but right now it is not looking that way this semester. Then in my Marketing Research class, my professor is brutal on our discussion question answers. I do like his teaching style (I have had him before) but he is harder in this class compared to other classes I have had him for.

But there is an upside and a sunshine to everything. I am getting married in almost 10 months, September 12, 2008! I cannot wait to become Mrs. Brett Turner and be married to the love of my life. He makes my life complete and he supports me in everything I do. He is supportive, protective, caring, loving, sweet, and so much more. He makes me feel so good inside and everytime I think about him and talk about him, I fall in love all over again (and I love that feeling).

Wow! I feel so much better and I hope I did not vent too much. Sometimes it is good to let things go and get it out in the open. I am the type to keep everything bundled up inside and that is something that I am working on.
