Save the Date!

Yuck. Wanna know how the last few weeks have been? Well it has involved trips to the doctor, trips to the Children’s Hospital, antibiotics for an ear infection, antibiotics for strep throat, and generally A LOT of feeling tired and sick. We are starting to feel better now (strep throat hurts like an SOB!) but productivity on the blog and otherwise came to a screeching halt.

Under all the sickness, the one part that brought me great excitement and happiness was the engagement of Prince William to Kate Middleton. I was OBSESSED with Princess Diana and it all started with her engagement to Prince Charles. I feel like I’m ten years old all over again, especially when I’ve been seeing the commemorative magazines showing Diana almost thirty years ago. God how I ate up everything she did; how she wore her hair and what clothes she wore. Whatever my ten-year-old self could copy of hers, I did. I also still have (somewhere) commemorative plates, cups, and spoons of their wedding.

Now I feel the same obsession starting over again with Prince William and Kate. So weird that I’m almost 40 years old and just as giddy as I was when I was ten. Thankfully Mike has embraced my reaction to the engagement with support rather than mocking!
