| Guys... I'm getting married!
Friday afternoon (about 1:00 pm) this limo pulls into the front of my
job and... to make a long story short, I got in it and there were lots
of flowers,(5 bouquets of long stem white roses) and a card from Shawn
and also a cd of our favorite songs. So there I was, sitting in a limo
surrounded by flowers, reading a card that blew any Hallmark out of the
water... and I just knew what was coming. Oh and may I mention that in
the process of leaving my job I forgot my cell phone. I couldn't have
called Shawn even if I wanted to. So anyway, we eventually arrived at
St. Clements Castle in Portland. The limo rolled to a stop in front of
this large gate and there was another 5 dozen roses in front of the
gate with a card attached. The card read ''Walk through the gate and
you'll get a beautiful surprise''. So I walked through the gate into an
open area surrounded by gardens... and there was Shawn. He was by the
edge of the water. So, I walked over to him, my emotions running
haywire and he proposed. There was a lot more to the actual proposal
than that, but the details are between Shawn and myself ;) So that was
it... We're engaged. And now we're planning our wedding which as of
now, will be held on June 3 2006. It's so crazy... Life is crazy...
Love is crazy... I'll keep ya posted!
Foreverly, Brit

Shawn is on a boat. A very large boat... floating through Alaska. Who
in their right mind goes on a cruise to Alaska in June?? Yeah, so it's
really beautiful there... in December! I'd love to go there during the
winter and be able to appreciate the cold weather. But if I went to
Alaska right when the weather started to get nice, I'd be... not happy.
(sigh) So he left the 2nd and he'll be back the 13...
On a brighter note, and I mean much brighter, Em and Bre and I
went to the beach today. It was awesome. That's all I have to say. As
soon as Em scans the pics and puts them on her xanga, I'll steal them
so everyone can see them! Ok? Be safe, be blessed, and drink lots of
water...

| Hehe... stole this pic from Em's site. That's me on the left and my bff on the right!
~I finally got new tires on my car. My old ones were beyond shot...
completely bald. I almost crashed my car into a guard rail last Sunday
so... that was the final straw- I needed new tires asap. So last night,
I got em! Woot!
And today is yet another cloudy Saturday. Boo... Shawn is at the
Yankees game and I'm home for now. I did my running around this morning
and now I just gotta shower and get ready. Shawn is coming over later.
We have to go to Cingular and get a new plan for me. I got yet another
300 dollar cell phone bill. Oops... Then we're going to Tokyo 2 for
some un-cooked fish. hehe
Well that's it for now. Don't forget tomorrow is Mommy's Day so hug your mothers!!

Do you guys ever feel like you're spinning in circles... like, on a
daily basis? Do you feel like your continually just ''going through the
motions''? Do you ever feel as though you need to stop and just breath?
I do.
Everything is so crazy these days. I absolutely LOVE my life, don't get
me wrong. Life is good... just crazy, that's all. I feel like
everything is so fast-paced and every day is just as hectic as the day
before. I get in bed at night and I'm just like ''Another day...gone''.
I feel like there's SOOOO much stuff that I want to do; so much stuff
that I need to do, but there's just not enough time to do it. I need to
perfect my time management skills... or lack thereof. I think I need a
mission statement...so here it is-
Mission= Save the world.

| Alrighty guys... I've been back from sunny FL for a week, and all week
I've been wishing I was back there. I def missed my family and friends
but I loved the warm weather, the sunshine and being on the beach...
sleeping in, not working... Yeah it was wonderful. hehe It was really
cool to spend an entire week with Shawn and his parents... but
especially with Shawn. We got to see a side of each other that we've
never seen before *cough-nomakeup-cough*. And sometimes he was a little
grumpy and I was a little snappy, but it was awesome! It was like
''Wow... You're a real person and you really do get mad!'' It brought a
reality to our relationship. Okay so am I right when I say that guys
should NOT do laundry? He tried washing my white beaters with a hot
pink t shirt! If I hadn't stopped him, I would have had light pink
beaters instead... So yeah, that was our first little... whats the word
I'm looking for... heated conversation. It was great. 
So as well as bringing back some warm weather, I also brought back the
flu. Yeah and it's pretty gross... Headache, coughing, sneezing,
burning/watery eyes, achey skin and joints, nausea... I'm not at work
today as you can probably imagine. Yesterday I took too much meds (3
advils twice, inhaler twice, Allegra twice, Benadryll allergy 3 times)
and at about 8:30 I hade some trouble breathing and my pulse was going
a little crazy, so my mom called the ER and told them what was going on
and what meds I took, and they told me that I needed to come down. So
my mom took me to the ER and to make a long story short, the Dr told me
to stop self medicating... and then they gave me Motrin cuz I had a
fever. lol
Okay so this entry is getting long but the main reason I wanted to
write was cuz I want to vent... Okay so I want to be more involved in
ministry. Especially youth ministry. I really have a heart for young
kids... young girls imparticularly. A well respected man in our church
once told me (prophetically) that God was going to use me to be an
example to young girls... Okayyyy...???? So what's keeping me from
diving head first into the youth ministry? I'll be the first to admit
that I deffinitely have not been going to youth group consistently, and
I talked to Shawn and we're gonna start making that a priority. And
there's always been an invitation to be on the worship team, but... no.
I don't feel as though that's where I should be. Then what is it?
What's my problem? Maybe it's a personal issue... Maybe there are
people that I should talk to because there seems to be some negativity
there. Or maybe the personal issue is ME? Maybe I'm not spiritually
ready to be what I want to be in ministry. It's hard sometimes when you
have to make a 6 o'clock meeting and you get out of work at 5:30... or
maybe even later depending on what time the kids at the day care get
picked up. I need a new job... I really do. There's soooo much drama at
my job... So many lies, rumors and crap and it makes me sick. I can't
stand it anymore... but it just seems like, every opporitunity that
presents itself just isn't right, ya know? I don't even know anymore...
I'm gonna get going, tho. Lots to think about/pray about.
Foreverly, Brit*
