Shello all! I am sorry it took me so long to post something. So much has been going on I don't know where to begin. Well, first off, I have been unable to post at work, because there were complaints that I was on the Internet too much. Can I help it that these folks at my job are constantly acting the fool and I just HAVE to write about the foolishness. When I try to write at home, Miss Beasley is acting up in the background and I just can't focus.
My wedding planning is going along GREAT! Last Saturday, Me, Rev, My mom(I, know), and my two wedding coordinators went to meet with the florist. My coordinator Miss Sylvia recommended this florist in Portsmouth. She did forewarn me that his work "area" is messy and by first look I probably won't want to use him but she assured me he did good work. Messy was not the word to use when I got there. It looked like all the flowers of the world had exploded everywhere. He led us to this tiny office filled with Coca Cola Memorabilia. I was impressed because he had a plethora of floral books with all kinds of bouquets and boutonnieres. He went from top to bottom with what type of flowers I wanted for what. I have decided to use pink, jade, and ivory roses. The bulk of my flowers will come in the form of the altar arrangements and rose petals for the aisle and my reception and cake table. The florist is supposed to call me back this week or next week with a quote. The real problem is going to be Rev. Rev is in charge of the budget and I am in charge of the decor. Yeah, get there. He could care less what it looks like, he just cares about the price. I care about price too, but I am a firm believer of you get what you pay for sometimes and in the words of one of my friends on Chocolate Brides(think The Knot for African American women), "I don't want my wedding looking like the budget emporium". I am praying these flowers come in under 1,000 dollars because that is all Rev is willing to shell out. I have a small feeling that will not be the case. I really like this guy's work and will be destroyed if my "budget department" says no.
At work, they have decided to add a whole lot of new responsibilities to my job. I am trying to look for something else, but it's just not happening for me. This really just comes down to God's will. What is for me, is for me. When it is time for me to go, the Lord will move me. Until then I just need to stay still and pray. I heard something this morning while listening to Apostle Laquinla Hunter this morning. She said that when the enemy begins to attack you have to stand on God's promise. What the enemy is trying to attack is the promise. He's trying to get you to stop believing in God's promise for your life. But we all have to keep believing and hold on. That was really encouraging to me. Be Blessed!
