The Last 100 Days

In 100 days, Mr. Obama:
-acquired a dog
-proposed and passed an economic stimulus package
-expanded the Children’s Health Insurance Program
-signed a law requiring equal pay for women
-ordered the closure of a notorious detention camp

Whether you like him or not, you have to admit that he was busy.

One hundred days until wedding day I’m considering what’s left to be done, and I don’t think I’m going to be as busy as all that.

It’s hard to tell, but there are 200 unbaked cookies in plastic wrap and ziploc bags.  Another batch and we’ll be set for favors.

Not pictured: finishing bridesmaid gifts, assembling and sending invitations, finishing various projects involving moss, ordering flowers, confirming rentals (ugh) and putting together instructions for day-of setup (much ugh).  I could not be a wedding planner.  The dry logistics are nowhere near as much fun as baking cookies.  Nor even sewing chair covers.

Also, somehow I’ve taught my dog to do this.  He does it all the time, which is totally distracting me from working on wedding projects.

we heart your comments!

    He is so cute…my dog also does the same thing, it’s funny how he sits there…is he a corgie, he looks like one,

  2. as a wedding planner, even I have to say-you’ve got your work cut out for you!!!

    You can do it, though. You just have to put your mind to it and focus! It’s fun!!! Good luck, and email me if you need any advice!

    Rebecca – yes, he’s a corgi! They’re sort of distinctive, aren’t they.

    I know, this post is old and therefore my comment totally late by months, but we LOVE corgies. We dream of having one when we have a yard and a fence. Yours is adorable!
