I just don't get it.

Warning: This may or may not offend some of you. But really, let's not get too touchy. 
I just don't get some of these "trends" lately. & I think they may be influenced by facebook and pinterest. 
There are just 3 small things that I just don't think I would ever think to do. 

Bridal photos...with the fiance. 
Okay. I get Bridal Photos...with just the bride. 
But when I see the fiance in the photos...
Isn't there a "He can't see you before walking down the aisle" rule?
Not that I'm superstitious. However, when I walk down the aisle I want to see the reaction on his face of his first look of me in my white dress as his bride. 

Showing your pregnancy test. 
Congrats on your new bundle of joy, really, I'm excited for you. 
However, the first thing I think of when I see that test with the little plus signs is "You just peed on that thing!"
I believe you without seeing a stick you just peed on. 

Inviting everyone to your wedding on facebook. 
Hooray for wanting a intimate wedding. 
& going old school and sending out invitations through the mail.

Annoyance and Happiness.

Have you just ever had those days where everything is just annoying you and the people around you and the things around you are not helping?

Today is one of those days.

The people.
This morning, I woke up bright and early to swim my laps, some lady wasn't patient enough to wait her turn, when I always wait for her if she beats me to it.
She almost swam into me.
First I thought she was some creature in the pool because I did not see her get in.
I almost peed myself.
She says. "Let's swim this way so we do not hit each other."
Of course she puts me on the side where the little curb is sticking out.
She took up the whole pool and was swimming far too slow for my pace.
I got out of the pool.
Thanks, you morning swimming laps pool hogger Lady!

I go get my haircut.
First thing I hear from the hair dresser,
"Oh my gosh your hair is so dry and you need it colored."
I've always got compliments about how healthy my hair is....
I've never had someone tell me that, thanks.
She thought I was 15 years old and informed me of my short forehead.
Didn't even walk out with the bangs I wanted because of my short forehead.
Ended up with a shorter version of what I already had.

The little things.
-Someone knocked on the door startling me while cracking my eggs into the pan.
The yolk feel in, I was making egg whites.
Our swifer sweeper was giving me attitude.
I almost killed a poor baby gecko.
-I don't feel pretty to take my last photo for my 30 day photo challenge, which is another self-portrait.
-I'm melting and can only take off so much clothes without someone complaining.
-My face looks extra fat today, maybe it's the new haircut.

Happiness.

Since I have ranted and raved I try to smile, grin, and bear it through all the annoyance I have built up.
Try to think of the things that have made you happy throughout the day.

I can swim 10 laps without stopping now, opposed to five.
Free sample of my favorite granola bar at the store.
My pants were feeling a little baggy.
I got a good laugh watching Friends.
My hair is now soft and healthy.
Listened to some happy tunes.
Crab for dinner.
Talked to the big guy upstairs.
Oh, and the sweetest boy called me driving back to Denver just to say Hello and how my day was. <3
