Over Earl Grey Tea

I'd forgotten how much I love making coffee in the dripper. I prefer the cleaner taste of filtered coffee.

8 years since I last used Tumblr.

Life has changed so much since then.

I'm older, for one. Mom of 2 kids. Working on my 3rd job since that last post.

Even the world has changed so much since that post too.

I don't know how I feel about coming back on Tumblr, only because I don't think I'll be using Tumblr the same way I did back then.

I'm learning a lot of course, because it's been a trial by fire kind of thing, but I'm at a point where I just want to rest. We've been trying for a baby for a year and we haven't been successful. I'm not sure if it's the stress of working here, the stress of having a boss like mine, or a biological reason (either him, me or both of us). We're going to get a fertility check up soon and I do hope that it is the stress and not because there's something wrong with us.That'll gives me even more reason to stay home and rest and recuperate.

I know the kind of wedding I would like; a small intimate one. Both the fiance and I agree that there isn't much point in having a big, lavish wedding and inviting one thousand people we don't know. We never understood why the weddings are getting increasingly grand. I don't want to start my marriage life in debt, for a wedding that I'm most likely not going to remember in detail.

What's most important for us is that we get to share our happiness with our close friends and family.And also, not blow our budget.

That feeling is ever increasing every day.

Even I can tell that those are excuses.

How does one retain that level of motivation to post at least a couple of times a week? As it is, I can barely manage to blog once a week. I guess having multiple blogs doesn't help.
