New Apartment!

Oct 21, 2006 01:44

So, Andi and I got the apartment! Yay!

We will be officially renting starting Nov 1, but we should be able to move in the weekend of the 26th--which is awesome because we will be able to take our time moving our stuff instead of having to move it all in one day. I am so excited about this, I could burst! The new place is beautiful, but we are missing many common articles of furniture... Such as a couch... and chairs... and a real table... At least we have a bed and a TV. heh And a PS2.

I got a raise at work! And, I've been moved to full time! AND, I'm receiving decorating training so I can make MORE money and work MORE hours! Joy! I'm very excited about this because I love my job and this gets me a little closer to actually being able to LIVE off my job. I will still be looking for a second job once we get moved in. Plans are to check out the caterer down the street, then move on to the other businesses in the area. I am thinking that if there is someplace I can decorate cakes (like a grocery store or a DQ), then those will be my next targets. Yay!

Andi and I have been getting wedding stuff together... It's over 18 months away, but I still feel this need to get it all hammered out RIGHT NOW. We have a basic design for the cakes already... Which is pretty easy for a baker, so that's not much to be proud of. I mean, we know WHERE we want to be married, but we don't have the venue reserved, yet. We don't have anywhere reserved for the reception. We are starting to get registered for gifts. We have our rings. We haven't even fully decided what we'll wear. We've already lost the first draft of our guest list... So much stuff... It's frustrating to me because Andi was the one that wanted to have a ceremony, and now I feel like I'm doing all the work. I mean, I did all the research and the sketching and the designing of the cakes, I'm the one scoping out caterers and reception halls, I've done all the registering, I've been getting all the info on clothes and traditions... I just wish she'd help me or cancel the whole thing. I mean, as far as I'm concerned--we're already married. I don't need someone to declare it for me in front of a bunch of random people. I know it and so does she. We both want to be together for the rest of our lives--raise some kinder and get old, y'know... But, Andi wants the wedding. So, why is all the work on me? The only time she seems to do anything is when I nag her... I hate having to do that.

Yoda is in trouble, so he's pouting. It's unbearably cute.

Love y'all, bai.

PS - My hair has grown to frighteningly long lengths--it hasn't been this long since I was a freshman in highschool. I think I will donate it to locks of love.

work, wedding, apartment
