Today’s been a weird day, to say the least. I woke up snug as a bug in my apartment only to be reminded that my fiance would be leaving to go visit some friends in Maine. And then I remembered that my parents are out of town, as is one of my sisters, and my […]
Personal
Okay, so I’m an anxious mess…
Here’s a fun (?) fact about me… I have anxiety. Like really, really, really bad anxiety. It’s not something I generally like to talk about, but it’s something that I can’t really avoid talking about – or at least acknowledging in some way. Right now, my life is busier than ever. I’m working full-time at a new […]
RIP Robin Williams
It’s a sad, sad day. Robin Williams was found dead in his home of an apparent suicide. This is one of those times when I’m shocked by how sad I can be about the passing of a person I’ve never met, and who has no idea that I even exist. This is also a time […]
Wedding Wednesday | Rhode Island Monthly’s ‘Engaged’
It’s [very late on] Wedding Wednesday, but I just wanted to take a moment to share some news with you. A whiiiile back (sometime in April, I think) I signed on to blog for Rhode Island Monthly’s Engaged magazine – their annual wedding special issue. Basically, roughly once per week I’m blogging all things wedding […]
I’m Lusting After… High-Low Dresses
Call me late to the party, but I’ve recently become obsessed with high-low dresses. I love that they’re as effortless as a maxi dress, while still adding a bit of glam and chicness to an ensemble. Dress them up with a pair of high heeled, strappy sandals, and some bling, or keep it casual with […]
RIP Grama
{Editor’s Note: For those of you who don’t know, my dad’s mother – my Grama – passed away on July 13, 2014. She had been battling cancer for a few years, and unfortunately she lost that fight. On Sunday, July 20 I gave the eulogy at her funeral service. Below is the eulogy in its […]
Sometimes Things…
{… I apologize in advance for this post. It’s kind of just a bit of a pity party, but it’s one of the benefits of owning your own little piece of the Internet.} Sometimes things are weird. Life has this funny way of knocking you down and building you right back up again. Honestly, […]
Good Karma.
There are some days when I sit back and think what did I do to deserve this? Sometimes I think it in a good way, and sometimes I think it in a bad way. Yesterday, I thought it in both ways. I got some news that, while not particularly devastating, was certainly not what I wanted – […]
Spider Van
I have no idea why it’s taken me this long to tell this story, but here we go! Last Thursday I mosied my way into Providence for an appointment at 2pm. Per usual, I arrived about 10 minutes early, and then proceeded to walk up and down the street in the pouring rain – you […]
Wedding Wednesday | Engagement Photos, Part 1
Our engagement photos are coming up this weekend, and all I can say is… how random. On the one hand, it feels kind of like being back in school for picture day (What will I wear? What if my hair doesn’t cooperate?!), and on the other it’s one of these wedding moments that make the […]
