Today I threw a baby shower for my best friend, then I went and photographed a SURPRISE (for the guests) wedding! Happy day had by all.

Oooh great idea.... lets see.... my birthday is coming up soon and me and friend are going to go to disneyland (wooo disneyland!!!!) My little cousins came over last night (age 2 and 4) They are both boys...... eh maybe that wasn't such a good thing. Now our house is a mess and we have crayon markings on the walls. But at least they are cute!

[Mermaasai]

My hubby (ok not yet but we've been together so long It comes naturally damn it) and I finally settled on a date for our wedding yesterday! ^.^
July 14th!!

[Spindrift]

Congratulations!! That is happy news!

I had a turkey dinner today and it was awesome.

(Might not be very 'good news' for other people, but I've had a long week full of 'meh' and you do not understand the level of love I have in my soul for turkey dinners.)

[ShyMer]

I for one think think turkey dinners are fantastical news

I finished the yardwork!

It's not so big of a thing, but it means I can now do more fun things, like browse mernetwork and fantasize about the tail I'd make with infinite money and resources. Oh, if only...

[Mermaid Sirena]

Finishing yard work from my perspective is huge! So much more free times afterwards :P

I managed to get my boo into college, he passed all his classes with flying colors and is now on the look out for a job He is also trying to quite smoking and work on losing weight and getting healthy again + we just went back out to a LARP I haven't been to for a very long time due to some drama and had the most wonderful weekend.

Only 2 more quarters and I'll be able to move in with this wonderful, wonderful man.

I love hearing the good news from other mers! Keep it coming!
P.s. turkey sounds delicious!

I just got from Ft Myers Beach, which I haven't been to in over 10 years. The beach was wonderful, and I walked forever every day (I would DEFINITELY get back in shape doing that). I found some nice shell pieces, and would have even gotten myself a weekly, consistant gig at the Resort I stayed at as a mermaid. Considering a move, perhaps....

There are a lot of factors to consider, though.

[Mermaid Sirena]

That is wonderful! Make a list of good bad and unknowns compare and contrast and then go with your heart, that's what I've always done and I've never regretted a decision done that way

I've lost 33 pounds since August 2010 and I feel great!

My Mum (my tailmaker) and I found some awesome sparkly fabric at Joann's and bought enough for 3 tails, though I think we're just going to make 2...a blue and a red one.

I'm in Arizona right now and the weather is great and yesterday I got some hiking shoes for camping that are normally $60 and I paid $20.

We're going on a hot air balloon ride tomorrow morning and Thursday we're going out to an artist town; Dad just suggested we go for a hike in the local mountain (so I can wear my new shoes!)

Also, it is so great to hear good news from everyone else, especially things like good grades, wedding dates, turkey and drama-free LARP weekends

I am one happy mer girl

[Mermaid Sirena]

Huzah new hiking boots are always fun And a Hot air balloon ride sounds so amazing! You should defiantly share some photos once you touch land again

[Sea Pearl]

Wow! Lots of good news going one here I'm finally going to have my very first tail made after months of looking around saving up money!! So excited!

[Blondie]

[New York Mermaid]

I finally have enough money to get the tail made so .. lets pray i get it up and running soon.
