It rained on my BBQ...
So...I'm obsessed with my dog - I admit it. Whenever we go out (the people always shout)...what? Ok, seriously...whenever Josh and I go out at night, I can never completely relax because I'm always thinking about Maggie. I always plan my day around Maggie - like, if I have to go to the grocery store, I will go on the way home from work so that I don't tease her by coming home and then leaving. Or, if I have to go back out, she always goes with me. Pathetic, isn't it?
So, we had a party on Saturday for Josh's birthday and I told all the guests that they could bring their dog if they wanted (because I know how it is to leave your pup while you go have fun)...this would have been a great since we have a fenced in backyard and we were going to grill out...my plan was fantastic. Until it started RAINING! Josh birthday party was a huge success, complete with thunderstorm and 6 dogs running around our house.
Still...I love dogs so I didn't care. It was just crazy. The party was actually really fun. We played Rock Band for the first time in our new house, which was cool because the boys could be as loud as they wanted. In our apartment we were always worried about pissing the people off who lived in our building. Now that we have a house, we can be as loud as we want. Our house is awesome. We have this huge covered sunporch, so we were able to play cornhole even though it was raining.
Yesterday we just relaxed...our parents both came to the party on Saturday, so we were able to do the Father's Day thing, too. So yesterday Josh played the video game that I got him for this birthday and I napped. It was fun.
Next weekend we are going to meet with a Rabbi to talk about our wedding. Since Josh and I don't belong to a synagoge, we have to find a Rabbi to officiate our wedding. This is going to be the first thing we really do as part of our wedding planning process. Of course, we've already started arguing about it because I want my mom to come with us. Josh thinks we should go alone, but I think my mom needs to be there since she knows more about Judaism and the traditions and customs than we do. I understand and completely agree that Josh and I need to make the plans for our wedding and not let our parents take over, but in this case, I feel that we would benefit from my mom being there. Regardless, having a Rabbi that we like and trust is very important to me, so I hope this guy works out.
I joined Weight Watchers online today. The only time that I've lost a significant amount of weight was by following WW. That was...oh...over 2 years ago and I had lost 20 pounds in like 2 months, if I remember correctly. I have stayed at that weight almost this whole time (fluctuating a bit), but now I am ready to lose more for our wedding. I'm nervous to see how I do because the last time I lost weight, I wasn't living with Josh. Now I have to worry about him and what he eats. I'll be tempted by the junk food that I keep in the house for him. I believe I can do it, though, it just might be more of a challange.
