I have been keeping this blog/ journal for 7 months now without publishing it. I liked the idea of being able to read it after the wedding and remember all the work that went into making our day special, but I wasn't sure if I wanted others to read it or if they would even want to if it were published. However, after pouring over hundreds blogs in the past few months looking for veil-making tutorials or ideas for non-cheesy father-daughter dance songs, I have really started to love the blogging world. So, I have decided to put this out there and see what happens. Maybe this is the beginning of my lifelong dream of becoming the next Martha Stewart...
Wait. There's more. Since I enjoy making blog entries so much, I also decided to branch out from Project: Wedding. (Besides, after a while, people start avoiding you if you can't talk about anything other than wedding plans.) So, coming soon: Culinary Adventures, The Dogs in My Life and other random fun.
One last thing. I feel like I should explain the the blog name. My fiance insists that every month I come up with some new hobby or project, etc. to obsess over. One month I was very passionate about installing a garden and growing my own vegetables, another month I wanted to crochet an afghan...so he claims. One of my "things of the month," as he calls them, was going to be a blog about cupcakes (because I am obsessed with them and try a new cupcakery in every new city I visit). That blog died before my third entry (I can't even remember what the blog was called or what blogging host site I used). However, this journal (now blog) has been alive for several months now (without his knowledge) and the title, "Thing" of the Month, is my way of saying "HA!" On the other hand, this blog could provide him with valuable documentation of my monthly obsessions and then the "HA!" would be on me.
Stay tuned.
