Heavy Sigh...

So yesterday I needed a day to relax and just do nothing so I called in for a sub (which I found out today was a BAD idea-- my kids were absolutely awful)... anyway so I got up and was doing nothing and I got the idea to go upstairs and try on my wedding dress. I did... and YAY it fits (I ordered a smaller size when I bought it and I had only tried it on with a bigger size)... so anyway, while I was trying it on I decided that I could call Sandals and find out what the deal was with our wedding.

I called and got the shock of my life. We were supposed to go Thursday the 6th through Thursday the 13th. We have to establish residency (48 business days not including the day of arrival). So we had it figured that we could get married on the 9th (Sunday). When I called they said that the soonest was the 12th (the day BEFORE we leave). Basically the weekends don't include the 48 hours (two busines days) so the first day would be Friday and then weekends don't count... leaving Monday, however, that's their Independence Day (how would I have known that???) so Tuesday would be the second business day and Wednesday would be the first available day. I flipped out... so long story short and several tears later... Steve called Northwest and got our flight moved a day earlier... so we get there on the 5th now (Wednesday) and then we have Thursday and Friday to establish residency and then we can get married on the weekend. SO.... our wedding day will be Saturday, July 8 at noon. I am so excited!!!

For those of you that know Aimee and Matt... you might be thinking... hmmm the 8th sounds familiar... well that's because they got married on Friday, July 8th, 2005 and this year it'll be a Saturday. So we'll be sharing an anniversary with Aimee and Matt :)

Anyway-- got to go-- American Idol is on and they're finally in Hollywood!!!! WHOO HOOO!!

Happy Birthday to Steve!!!

Today Steve turned 31 and we celebrated by doing absolutely nothing all day! You know you're getting old when doing nothing all day is the perfect day! On Friday night we went to Toldeo, Ohio to see the Friends of Bob and Tom comedy show. It was really funny and we ended up getting home around 1:30am.

Saturday afternoon my mom came over and she and I went to Big Boys for lunch and then drove out to Ann Arbor to the teacher's store out there since the one in Westland kinda stinks. We also went to Best Buy and I picked up Eminem's newest cd Curtain Call. Saturday night we met my mom and dad and Fr. Terry at Pizza Papalis in Dearborn for some tasty pizza. We came home and just kinda hung out and then went to bed.

This morning we got up and had breakfast and then literally did nothing. Steve read the paper and I read People and watched all the shows that I've been DVRing all week. We went grocery shopping, came home and made dinner (Steve wanted Spam, I think it's gross so I had a frozen dinner) and then watched television. We're about to go to bed here shortly.

We did file our tax returns already and we're both really excited because we'll be able to pay off the credit card and put a lot into savings for the wedding and we'll be 100% credit card free going into our marriage!!! YAY!!! Not many couples can say that so we're excited.

Anyway-- it was a good weekend and I'm ready to head back to school. I feel like I'm just living for the weekend. I dread Mondays... and live for Fridays. Part of that is because I get to wear jeans on Fridays. Another part is that my class just wears me out. I'm just ready for mid-winter break (15 more school days) and then spring break and then summer break!!!

Peace out for now-
