Back to School Time!


I have only one more semester left at college, then I will have my associates. I have been spending a week getting everything together and ready to go. I have all my text books, every things paid, I have notebooks, a bag and pens. The only problem is I always feel as if I am forgetting something. I do this every year and always feel the same. I think it's just nerves. The Hubby is all set to go too, and hopefully I will be getting a car soon ( I hate being stranded!).

I can't wait till summer is gone and fall is here. Fall is my favorite season! I just love everything about it! I love the smells, I love Thanksgiving, I love Christmas shopping, I love the chilly days and cold nights, I love the colors that bloom outside, I love the sweaters and boots, I love everything about Fall!
Whats not to love about that?

I'm Back!!!!

Okay, so this past two weeks have been crazy! Hope you are all comfortable, because this is gonna be a long one.

First thing that happened: two days after my last post (which was a little over two weeks ago) my computer charger went out. Yeah, wonderful timing. So my computer had been dead until yesterday when we finally got the 100 bucks to get a new one. So I was unable to check my email, I was unable to do the DIY programs for the wedding, couldn't post here and couldn't get my invitations list off of here. But, no fear, I am now up and running again and now will be catching up on the overflowing inbox and all my missed posts here! lol.

The wedding went really well. The weather decided it was gonna be at it's hottest/humid and thunderstorm on the wedding day, so we had to move it inside, not to mention the mosquitoes and ticks back in the woods. But, we made it work out and it still looked very nice. So hubby and I are now officially husband and wife!

We had decided we would leave the reception around 8:00pm and head off to the honeymoon, and ran into some issues. There was a boat show going on that weekend that was apparently very popular, so we ended up going to 15-16 different hotels and they were all booked. We finally found one at about 2:30am and we were hungry so we ended up eating Stake n' Shake, which was the only thing open. The room smelled terrible, so I didn't get much sleep. The second hotel the next night was much better! But thats all the details you all are getting about that!

I got my hair done yesterday. Hubby wanted my to try out highlights ( and yes it was his idea), and I think it looks wonderful. It makes me look more like a wife than a student. I promise to post pics when I look better and am no longer sick.

Sick? Yes sick. The morning of the wedding I was developing a little cough, nothing to worry about then, but it got worse on the honeymoon, and when I woke up yesterday, it was terrible. My throat was on fire and I was coughing like crazy. Hubby was feeling the same way and so was a couple of the guests the week before. And today, hubby got sent home from work early and I look terrible. Hopefully this will go away soon and I pray he feels better tomorrow.

I went and got all my name change stuff done, and finished getting school stuff done. I still have to do a little back to school shopping, but it's only a couple of things.

The house is a mess. I just can't bring myself to clean. I just want to lay down. What a way to spend our first week eh?

So how many of you thought I disappeared? lol

Emotional Roller Coaster

Sorry for the scarcity of posts lately, I've been so busy and emotionally drained. I am nervous/happy/angry/sad and a whole bunch of other emotions I am sure they don't even have a name for yet!

I am happy/nervous/excited about our upcoming wedding (1 week and 2 days)!!! I absolutely cannot wait until I am walking down the aisle (read: until it's all over and we're husband and wife!). I still feel so overwhelmed because I feel like there is so much for me to do! I will just have to wait and have faith that it will all get done and go as planned.

Hubby-to-be and I are trying to stretch our legs, but there's no room for us here anymore. We have pleaded for the separate apartment downstairs and have been told no. So we would like to get our own place, but everything seems way out of our price range and apartments have so many requirements. We don't know what to do. This is where the sadness comes from. I want to get out of here and be on our own. I am tired of all the yelling and bossing around, all the melding. I mean in a week we will be husband and wife but his parents still seem to think that it doesn't matter (it's just a piece of paper, we're his parents if we tell him to do something he better do it!). It just drives me nuts! For example: if I ask him to go with me to the store or something, and his dad and mom want him to stay home and play pool or go out with them, they will throw a fit when he goes with me. How ridiculous is that? Then they say all this stuff about how we shouldn't move out and we should just live with them for awhile. Then When we tell them we need more room (i.e. the downstairs full apartment that is only inhabited by his sister and her baby, that's it. She doesn't even use the kitchen downstairs!) his dad said "If the are old/stupid enough to get married, they can move out!". Wonderful, right?

I don't know what to do. Any advice?

It's about to get crowded?

Hubby just called and said he had another couch that he got for free to add to our small livingroom. We will see how this fits....
