every rose has its thorn

Hello beautiful friends. I thought it was about time I pulled my socks up and began posting more regularly. Alot has been going on, good & bad.. but I'm going to press on! Today is officially 3 months until our wedding! It still feel surreal, I think it will hit me when it's probably 2 months off. Almost everything is done, due to my/my mum's stellar organisational skills. ps. I bought my shoes the other day.. $10!!! And they are perfect. Budget weddings are wonderful.

Anyway, in other news.. I travelled down to Sydney last Sunday to visit my best girl, Bron. She just got a new place in North Sydney with her boyfriend, which is awesome! It's so nice & spacious. So, we had breakfast, did some grocery shopping (which we lugged up a few hills to her place), then took the train to Newtown. I'd never been before, but I'm glad we went! Bron bought some little potted herbs for her kitchen & we went to Max Brenner's for a sweet treat. Oh my!! It was delicious! Oh, then we went to a big St Vinnies store & I found 'The five people you meet in heaven' by Mitch Albom for $3. It was just sitting there like I was meant to find it. Very pleased. It was such a nice day.. Bron & I sat in her apartment drinking rose & lime cordial & reading peppermint, to me.. that was a perfect moment.

Between then & now, things have been up & down. Alot is going to change between now & the wedding. We have to decide where we're going to live (somewhere that allows pets, mostly). As you may have already read in previous posts, I'm living with my fiance` & his brother. In a perfect world, I would love to just move out with Zane as soon as we are married. But financially, it's another story. If nothing comes up beforehand, we might be looking at staying on here until March next year. If you have been in a similar situation, please let me know.. I feel a bit alone in this scenario.

I'm about to go get ready to visit Zane at work, so I'll leave you with some photos of my little trip to Sydney. Love you all.
