i'm getting married!

i was going to start this blog post off by apologising for the lack of posting recently, but i figure that you all understand why and Sir says it's my blog so i shouldn't feel guilty about not posting regularly, so i'm just going to continue with my policy of posting as and when i've got something to say and the time to say it, and hope that all my readers understand. And anyway, there's plenty of archived posts to keep you busy in the meantime! Sooooooooo there's only 5 more sleeps until our big day, and as i was telling flame last night it seems to have come round real quick, and i just can't believe that our big day is nearly here after 2 years' of preparation for it. Everything is absolutely ready - the dress, the rest of my outfit, the bridesmaids and page boys outfits, the suits, the flowers, the cake, the rings, the vows, the music, the reception, the butterflies, absolutely everythinggggggg but i still can't get rid of that nervy little flutter in the bottom of my tummy which tells me that something might go wrong. i'm notexactly expecting something to go wrong, just aware that it could and it makes me jittery and full of nervous excited energy all the time which i know must be hard to live with for all those around me. Even Poppy keeps looking at me funny like she can't quite work out what's up with her mummy, but then she goes happily back to whatever she was playing with before, and that's been a big help in keeping me grounded. And she was such a good girl at the rehearsal this weekend that a big weight has been lifted off my mind because i know she'll do just great on the actual day too. After our wedding we've booked into a lovely hotel for the night (with Poppy as well), then we've got a few days at home before our honeymoon cruise for 16 nights (which Poppy is also coming to). And while we're away the builders should be busy converting our garage so that it's all done by the time we get back.... hopefully. i'm so excited about everything, the day itself and the honeymoon after and the changes to our house, but the thing i'm most excited about is becoming Sir's wife, making that commitment to Him in front of all our family and friends, saying my vows and becoming wholly His in law as well as in slavery. i feel so lucky to have Him and i just know that He's the one i want to spend my whole life with, so getting married makes sense, even if the bonds are already there due to my collaring. Also (and i don't mean to offend anyone here) but i'd rather Poppy didn't grow up with an unmarried mother and father, i just think it's better all round for us to be married, and as it's what Sir wants too that takes any questions out of it as i'm just following His wishes! Not sure if i'll post again before the wedding, depends if i can get myself to sit down and concentrate enough, but i'll definitely post afterwards to let everyone know how it went. Bye for now xxxxxx
