catch up.

where has the time gone? the past few weeks seem to have flown by, and i've found myself completely exhausted. as soon as i get home from work, i seem to fall into a drug-like sleep, one that is impossible to fight, and hard to drag myself out of. i've missed blogging, though, and apologize to those of you who keep up with us on a regular basis. my resolution is to do much better these next few weeks.
our past weekend has been consumed with justin & lindsay's save-the-date cards. we made some last minute changes and then had printer issues trying to get them completed. travis was a champ, and even more excited about them than i was. he is so glad that i am finally starting to do my design work out of our home. he's been suggesting that i do it for quite some time now until we are able to get a boutique open. the wedding has forced me to get back to designing (and for that i am thankful). i have more designs to come up with -- bridal shower invitations are going out tomorrow, and then i still have the wedding invitations and the wedding programs. wedding programs are always a pain and a half to create ... but they're one of my favorite things at the same time, don't ask me why.
once i have several designs, i plan to seek help in designing a website. we are able to get web hosting through travis's office, but there is no one who does the design work. i have an idea of what i would like for it to look like ... just getting someone to help me is the kicker.
travis also wants to do more pc work on the side as well. we're working on getting a flyer put together for his neighborhood pc.
yesterday we went for a walk together around one of the parks in muskogee. the weather was nice and it felt good to walk. with my back injury and then my surgery, i have been a lot less active than i like; travis, too. we both want to get back in shape, and just healthier.
we went to an aikido class last thursday night and observed. it's something that travis has been interested in for a while. it was pretty interesting. i think that he is going to start the class in november. i am still contemplating. if i do, i will be the only woman in the class ... and i'm not sure that i am as into it as travis; actually i think i am intimidated and afraid of looking dumb.
we wished today that we had more friends in the tulsa area that we could spend time with so that we don't have to go to muskogee every time we want someone to hang out with . it's hard to find couple friends, though, and i've always been more of a quality, not quantity kind of person. while i have quite a few acquaintances, i don't know that i have many people i would consider close friends.
the weather is turning cooler, and right now i am hoping that we won't skip right over fall and go into winter. we've had several "fall" days, but definitely not a season's worth and there have already been a couple of days when it felt like you needed a heavy coat all day long.
the holidays are coming, along with the wedding, and many changes are in store. it's going to be an exciting few months.
