7 days and a new address

So we moved into our own place yesterday...ALL DAMN DAY!! Good grief. I mean, I only moved one room FULL of stuff (plus the majority of our wedding gifts) and it took all day. Seriously. And we're still not done. Evan still has to get some stuff from his dads house and his storage unit. And I still have to finish packing up my room and making sure we get my mattress to the house tonight (because Evan's mattress, sucks big time). Also, the wedding, the one I've been counting down since the beginning of time, is SEVEN DAYS AWAY!!! We still haven't picked out a cake (correction, we picked out a cake, the leaves would be an extra $500 to put on the cake so we nixed that idea) and we still have what feels like 50 jillion things to do. Not to mention that I have Moo-Moo with me and all of you parents that have moved with small children now have my undying adoration. Seriously, cause she almost made me crazy last night. She is so loving that I can't stay mad at her, but I defnitely got frustrated. But anyway, thats all for now. My blogging will be sporadic at best for the next couple of weeks because of this next week being wedding week, not having internet at the new house yet and then going on the honeymoon. So, I'll check in tomorrow. Lurve you all!!

Umm..

Puh-lease tell me it is currently 12:34 in the AM and I am STILL awake!!! Seriously? This is geting ridiculous. I was EXHAUSTED (but not hung-over, because I rock) all day, and now, when it's sleepy-time, I can't sleep. Magical. Ugh. My body is a fucking moron. Now, my thoughts in numbered form because I know you are all waiting w/baited breath to see what when on w/me this weekend.
1. I got my first chiropractic adjustment on Saturday. I am currently extern w/a chiropractor who is AMAZING (and so scatterbrained, I love it). Unfortunately, it's more of a "homeopathic" type of deal and they don't do things like say, UA, blood draw, prescriptions. They do, MFR (myofacial release, or a medical term for massage) and adjustments and x-rays. Oh and tell me why I got an x-ray lesson is about 10 minutes that people pay good money and a long time in school to get. Just a thought. But anyway, this is not my favorite thing. I would love to be in an OB/GYN office or an RE (reproductive endocrinologist), but I very much like this doctor and the location is fantastic. So dear internet, what do I do? Oh and to add to the fun story, for most MA jobs you have to have experience, which you only get from working a MA job which you can't get w/o experience. Notice the problematic circle. So any advice? Throw it my way.
2. My bachelorette party was the most fun I've had a in long time and I was at the perfect drunken state. I was past buzzed, but not to the vomitting stage. And I interspersed the alcoholic drinks w/water, therefore not getting dehydrated and feeling pretty okay this morning. So I will post pictures soon (I know I always say that, but for real, I will).
3. Okay..thats all for now, there's more to my weekend but Im sleepy. Etc.

Do you know what today is?!

Today is my bachelorette party!!!!! It also means the wedding is only FOURTEEN DAYS away...OMG!!! Finals are over, I passed all my classes, and I can finally get excited about getting married (don't get me wrong, I've been excited about getting married all along, it's just school, is a downer..lol). Tonight, everything is a surprise. I don't know where we are going or what it entails. I just know that it is going to be a drunk-fest (well all except for my MOH, who is currently 7 months pregnant, so..) Im going to try not to get so drunk that I get sick (because I don't do vomit) but enough drunk that Im buzzed. My only problem, I usually go to bed at like 10pm every night..cause Im boring and because I have to be up at 5AM. So me staying up past like midnight is gonna be a stretch (I know, I suck). But we'll see. All the details and more then likely pictures will be added tomorrow!!

So a few things..

1. In that one post about not wanting to waste a year to start getting fertility help I also said I don't want to be 35 and having my first kid...well it made me sound like Im 34...Im not, defn. 25, don't know why that bothered me, it just did, so now, all better.
2. Is there a better word for stressed the absolute fuck out, then that? If so, Im so there. Seriously.
3. Finals are *almost* over. I took my two clinical finals and now I just have to take my online class final which hopefully will be MUCH easier. We'll see how it goes. That Im putting off until tomorrow night, so congratulations to me.
4. The bachelorette party=this WEEKEND. I feel like I might just have to drunk post it'll be good times.

Intervention

Tell me why I have my HUGE clinical II final exam and I am sitting here watching A&E's show Intervention on You Tube..Hmm, what is wrong w/me? I think I've psyched myself into thinking that between 12 & 5:30 tomorrow I can get some heavy duty studying done. We'll see if I snap out of it.

I feel the need to post..yay

So Im sitting after my first day of my externship and I feel the need to post an update as to my world, at the moment...But in a short (maybe) numbered list.



1. The wedding is 3 weeks away..Holy crap! I still feel like there is so much to do, not unlike last week..LOL..We are still receiving RSVP's (isnt that nice) I will seriously, return every RSVP Im sent, whether it's a yes or no. It's no fun (and is kind of ghetto) having to chase people down to get their answer.

2. E's dad is still an asshat. For serious. Last week he made some uncalled for comments and I'd love to just uninvite him from the whole thing, but it is E's dad, so no dice.

3. I started my externship today. Im at a chiroprator's office, which is not really my cup of tea because your not doing the "usual" MA stuff, such as blood draws, injections, vitals, etc. But on the other hand, the doctor is AMAZING. I really like her and she really likes me and we mesh well. The other problem is that if she wants to hire me, she only works 3 days a week, which is fine if you are making a doctor's salary, but not so good if you are making a MA's salary. If I would get hired there, I'd also have to stay at preschool. Which is SO NOT what I want to do. Because driving from Nora, to almost Avon, to Castleton, and home, is a ton of gas, especially with it being almost $5.00/gallon. Ughh. Hopefully she can work with me and have me come in at least 4 days a week. It's just a tough call. Do I talk to my advisor and go somewhere else or try to make this work?

4. Everyone around me is pregnant/having a baby. My friend Lara delivered Collin James on September 4th, (8lbs. 9oz), and Leighanne delivered LaCorian Dewuan on August 2nd. Pregnant currently..Becca & Jeremy (EDD 10-15-08, boy), Kreshia ( EDD 11-28-08, boy), Angel & Asher (EDD 12-04-08, boy), Amanda & Mike (EDD 01-04-09, girl), Janis & Chris (EDD 01-09-09, ?). I want to be pregnant so bad, hopefully it happens on the honeymoon, but I don't know. My cycles have been screwy since I went off BC last November. The doctor said they should regulate w/in a year. So here's my question, can one have an 80-90 day cycle? I had a period in Nov/Dec/Jan, then no period in Feb/Mar/Apr, then a medically induced one in May, a regular one in June and on in July. None in August or so far in September. Is it possible to go that long and be "normal?" I don't currently have health insurance, I KNOW, but I will after we get married. And I also know that most likely, the doctor isnt going to give us any help, fertility-wise, until after we have done the year of trying. Is it selfish to say that I don't want to waste a year? I don't want to be 35 when I have my first child. Any and all advice would be appreciated.

5. We still haven't heard from our family in League City. Kemah, & Galveston Bay were basically destroyed by Ike, and those 2 places are just miles away from where they live. We are hoping to hear something sometime today. Please keep them in your prayers.





Okay..I think thats all for now. Im gonna revamp the colors on here ASAP to get ready for fall and most likely add new blinkies and countdown things.. Yay.

Jeez

Please send up some prayers.....We have family in League City, Texas, which is right, almost directly, outside of Galveston, where, in a few hours, Hurricane Ike is supposed to hit. We haven't been able to get through to her all day because the phones lines have been busy/dead. We don't know if they have evacuated or anything..We are waiting to hear from her, hopefully soon. So please, if you could, send up your prayers. We need them, we are worried sick, and I know they are worried themselves to have to evacuate. They had some damage from Hurricane Katrina 3 years ago, so this is just another blast. Ugh...Please pray!!

4 weeks..

OMG..The wedding is exactly 4 weeks from today! I literally feel like I still have so much to do..
This weekend I have Moo-Moo so she can go to my 2nd shower w/me since she missed the first. It's like having my own little girl..I just love her so much...And tell me why my dad was like "So, are you going to be bringing me on of those next Christmas?!" I really hope so. I want to have a baby so bad, it's just, well you know my fears. Not being able to conceive easily..etc. I know, think good thoughts and all that crap, but it doesn't always happen. In fact, I think Im ovulating & not having a period..Does that happen? Anyway, back to the wedding stuff. Today I want w/Angel & Candice to look at their dresses while they got sized. And may I just say, the colors look FANTASTIC!! OMG!! But, neither of their dresses fit. Candice's was TOOOOO big and Angel was too big up top & too small around back because of her baby belly. So it was kind of a waste of tiem and I will NEVER suggest Posie Patch Bridal Superstore in Castleton because the customer service is atrocious, but anyway, w/Angel's dress, we went in to have it sized at the beginning of August and they told her to wait until the 1st or 2nd week of September just so we could have a better idea of what size her belly would be (she's currently about 27 weeks pregnant.) In the meantime, they said they would let out the sides so that when she came back the dress would be as big as it could go so the seamstress could measure her from there (so basically it was a worthless trip, but I digress). So we went back today and, surprise, the seams had not been let out, therefore, the seamstress has to let them out, because no one informed her that the dress had to be let out. There was no way she could measure Angel because the dress wouldn't zip up the back. So Angel has to go back on the 11th and she and Candice both have their final fitting on the 27th!! And just a little FYI, if you'll notice the 27th is only 1 WEEK from teh wedding date. I cannot believe they don't have anything earlier. I also have to wait until the 24th to have my final fitting on my dress because she had NO open Saturdays and I was not gonna wait until the week before the wedding for my dress (since al the work has to be done on the bodice, and that is where all the beading is, it's pretty labor intensive) so thats fun. I really had a freaking out moment in the middle of the bridal store when they said she needed 2 more fittings and both girls were having their last fitting 7 days before the wedding. I almost hyperventilated, but it was okay. We also met w/the cater today. So far we have received about 100 yes responses to the wedding, we expect 50 or so more by the time the wedding rolls around, but people are really lax in responding. Im going to remember that if I ever get invited to something that has an RSVP. It's really stressful waiting to see who is going to show up. We invited 250+ people, so you can see why were a little bit worried. And we will get ghetto and call people the week before the wedding to see if they are coming. Anyway, my mom, Moo, and I went to JB's and we got our cake ordered, and it's going to be SO pretty, and we chose the menu, the linens, how the room will be set up etc. It was a productive meeting and then we had lunch there and I way over ate (as always). The quote from the cater was about $3000 less than my mom and I had thought but about $1000 more than my dad had thought..LOL..oops. I think my parents are going to have to loan E &I money to cover the bar service because although he currently has $4500 in his paypal account, it's locked because they are doing "random" audits and want to check EVERYTHING he has sold in the past 30 days and they think "maybe" it will be unlocked by the 20th of this month, so that blows. But we are doing what they call a consumption bar service, where we pay the set-up fee of $425 and then a $1000 minimum. If anyone drinks over that, then we pay for what they drink over. We don't think anyone will, and that way we can have an open bar that will only be $1425 instead of upwards of $3400. Okay..thats all for now..Im exhausted. I have been running on about 5 hours of sleep a night and I must go to bed since my shower is tomorrow and yawning through it probably isn't the best idea.

She & her fiancee Jeremy got married on January 5th and are expecting a BABY BOY on October 15th..She said "yeah I know, a honeymoon baby!!" How exciting!!!
