Le Sigh

So I am feeling pretty accomplished this week. Mark and I decided to get married in September and pay for the wedding our selves. Not that we have much of a choice. My mom is supposed to be saving up money but I know she needs it.

I have 147$ in my account which I am super proud of! Usually I have like 20$ left. I also have 50$ in cash which is equally awesome. Of course I havent gone grocery shopping yet. Le sigh.

Ive been really unhappy today. Mark and I had a small period where we were mad at each other because he is an asshole sometimes. He realizes it and apologizes. Im not an abuse victim so dont get any ideas. And dont say anything about whether I really love him or whether I should be with him. I call him an asshole no matter what he does. Prime example, he gets me raisenets when i really want a snickers.

So this post has no relation to adventure or moving. I just wanted to say I am a sad kitty. And need attention and I want it now.

Im going over moms and julias tomorrow to talk wedding stuff. Yay.

Trouble in Paradise

So another dilemma has arisen. Of course. Our wedding. Sigh. Should we have it this year? Before we go? If/When we come back? Things to consider.

-As a 'Daddy's Girl', I have to have my father walk me down the isle, even though Ive asked my godfather to do the honors if my father cant, I dont think I can do it without my dad. My father is also very sick and getting worse each year.

-It will be difficult/impossible to plan the wedding while in texas because I have over 50 family members in MD. So having it in texas is bad. And planning while in texas is, well, pointless.

-Mark doesnt want to rush it. Whatever that means...he doesnt believe in getting married. This is for me. Maybe he cares now? He keeps avoiding the conversation.

-Money. I dont want anything crazy. I dont even care if it isnt traditional. Mark and I sure dont have much and neither do both of our parents. Plus we plan on moving...

What to do. What to do?

Jury Says.....(lol pun intended)

So its Official Matt and Carol are a couple! Yay. I picked Matt up from the airport today and he informed me. So them being together also means, We're moving to Texas! The plan right now is September. After a few things are settled...

Now the planning begins!
-Find an apartment
-Plan our jobs/transfers
-Save for the trip
-Recruit people to help get to Texas!
-Plan a going away party
-Go through everything I own and get rid of half of it
-Make a budget as to how much we will spend to get down there
-Plan a trip in June to look at apartments
-Car stuff, insurance, tags, licenses
-LOOK HARD FOR FIOS, or awesome internet connection
-Find average price for gas/electric
-And like 100 other things

Right now only a few people know about us moving. Im not going to announce it yet. Its not 100% yet but its 99% which is good enough for me.

It's been a while

So there isn't really any news. No updates. No nothing. If Texas doesn't work out, where to?
