Shaping up
I had a generally good day yesterday. I was pretty happy all day, and I didn't feel like crap. Today was less good, as I didn't quite get enough sleep last night, I'm kind of sick, and was pouring rain until about noon today (mind you it's still cold enough for there to be ice, so the rain would freeze on the ground). It was nasty.
I'm feeling better though after having a nice conversation with my mom this afternoon. I begged her for some advice a few days ago regarding the situation with Dan and I. She suggested that he needs to stand up to his parents and let them know how he feels. She also hinted that she approved of what was going on, saying "You are a very grounded, self-aware young woman. I trust your good judgement. You are the one that has to make this decision." This made me feel a ton better, at least knowing that she approves. We also had a nice facebook chat this afternoon, and she was wonderfully helpful and understanding of everything. She told me to just let her know when to start calling caterers. I informed her that she would most certainly know before I did because Dan intends to ask my parents first. She said that would make my Dad quite happy. It's nice knowing that I have her support in all of this.
Dan and had a lovely chat about the futrue last night, and it was really reassuring. I'm generally very excited that all of this is happening. I know that we have a bit more to go before it's all final, but knowing that it's coming is really invigorrating.
Now we just have to work on his parents... They'll get there!
