If only there were....
...like 10 more hours in a day.
I feel like I am living in a whirlwind these days. The week after Easter I spent every evening making sure our apartment was spotless for my mother's visit. Then mom came and stayed for four and a half days. Then I spent all last week cleaning up again since I knew we were going out of town. Then last weekend we were in Florida for three days (though I'm NOT complaining!!!). Now this week, I am mega busy doing taxes, cleaning, getting wedding stuff started, and packing for Houston. On Thursday, we are leaving for Houston for the whole weekend and we won't be back until late afternoon on Sunday. Ugh, I just need a break!!! We have been traveling so much lately that I feel like I can't catch up. I spend all weekend just playing around and then when we get back, we have all this laundry and ironing to do before work the next day. After this Sunday though, we will be in Greenville for the next SEVERAL weekends, but I am sure I am going to fill those up with doing wedding stuff.
I am so excited. Seriously. I can't even think of the right words to describe how happy I am!
I think I was on the phone for like four hours last night. That sucks because I am not a phone person at all. I have to call each member of my family individually and tell them my big news. Sometimes they aren't there, or I get put on hold, or I have to leave a message...ugh. I wish I could just send them messages telepathically sometimes and cut out all the phone stuff. I know it means a lot to them when I call, so I go ahead and do. And unfortunately, I only got through about 1/3 of my "to call" last night so I will keep on working on it tonight.
I had planned to go to the gym tonight, but it has started raining cats and dogs here and there are tornado watches and everything. I don't think it would be a good idea for me to go run tonight, so I'm homebound. Not like a don't have a billion things to do at home anyway. Scott has to work late tonight, so I'll probably just cook some dinner so that he has something to eat when he gets home. I made some dirty rice last night and it was AWESOME. I think Scott could have eaten the whole pot by himself. I like that he likes my cooking. It makes me feel less helpless as a girlfriend and as a future wife. I know this will sound so dated, but it makes me feel good to know that I will be able to cook dinner for my children one day that will consist of something more nutritional that tator tots and fish sticks (not that I'm knocking them or anything) and that they will actually like it.
We'll I have started to ramble and my spreadsheets are calling me again. Until next time....
