It's too bad that when there's a lot going on, the consequence is that it's harder to find time to post about it. It reminds me of the fact that little tykes, who seem to generate the energy of a thousand suns, lack all responsibility or discipline to harness that vigor and put it to good use. Sometimes life is a paradox.

If you want to keep better track of what's going on in my world, check out my other blog. My time for blog cruising, flights of fancy, reflection and mental fun seems to be much more limited lately, but my deeper reflections and consideration of the things that are really important are in the ascendant and tend to show up over there.

But the short answer is: I'm getting married to a wonderful man and am caught up in wedding preparations, househunting, and (as Kate reminded me) that separate category called "marriage preparation" that is far more important than the other two. I'd appreciate your prayers. And I haven't lost my appetite for fun, so I'll be back here from time to time.

P.S. If you have any good engagement or wedding jokes, please post them here.

   The closest I have to an engagement/wedding joke comes from my in-laws, who are infamously prone to puns. The standing joke is that whenever the rehearsal dinner (or any family meal) is mentioned or prepared for, someone remarks that we mustn't forget the melons. What melons? Why, honeydew ('honey i do') and canteloupe ('can't elope'), of course!
