It’s Monday again. It’s always Monday. Then again, it’s always Friday too. Time really seem to go faster the older you get. I generally wake up on Monday morning thinking, ”crap it’s Monday, 5 work days until I can sleep past 6am again. Where did the weekend go?” And then, just like that, 5 days have gone by and I’m thinking, ”Geez, Friday already? Where did the work week go?!”
I can’t say that I did anything of major significance this weekend. P had to work overtime on Saturday, so he was long gone by the time I rolled out of bed at 8am. I could have slept longer, but some mornings there is only one thing better than sleeping late: Getting up relatively early, making a pot of coffee, curling up on the couch and knowing that you still have the whole day ahead of you to get stuff done. I managed to watch 3 episodes of ”Sex in the City,” do Pilates, vacuum the entire apartment, clean the kitchen and bathroom, and take a shower, all before 11:30am! Then I headed into the city to run some errands and take in the beautiful weather.
Although P had to work, I decided to go to Josephssons and start our registry. I’ve only registered for stemware so far, since I want P to come with me to finish the list. I just wanted to get started since the store was offering two Orrefors Champagne glasses as a gift for registering there. It was a limited time offer, so I wanted to sign up before we missed getting the free glasses! Anyway, in case anyone is wondering (and I’m only putting this out there because people are starting to ask!,) We are registering for the same place settings both at Macy’s in the US and Josephssons in Sweden. (Denby) As for stemware, we are only registering for it in Sweden, but it can be bought in the US as well. We are registering for Orrefors ”Intermezzo.” (Champagne, Red wine, White wine and maybe a few others, although I think that those first 3 are the most important.) Anyway, although you can’t purchase stuff online from Josephssons, you can see the updated list online at http://www.josephssons.se/ . Or go to the following link and enter our wedding date to get our list (called ”önskelista” in Swedish.) http://www.josephssons.se/Public.aspx
The woman at the store said that you can always call the store, buy something from our list over the phone, and either have it sent to us or they can set it aside for us to pick up after the wedding.
But for me, the wedding is not about getting presents! I just want to have a wonderful day with by new husband, and to celebrate it with my nearest and dearest. So I hope the above doesn’t sound greedy or tacky; that is certainly not my intention.
I almost forgot to mention the highlight of my weekend! P baked a chocolate cake for my birthday (since he wasn’t around on my actual birthday.) Wasn’t that the sweetest thing?
