Survival

I've survived the lone weekend.

I cooked, cleaned, baked, watched girlie movies that fiance would have hated, and did my nails. It was a great weekend.

But boy am I sooo happy the boys are home. Well, most of them. Fiance is traveling again tonight, but he will be home tomorrow.. Anyway..

I learned a few important things while the guys were out :

*I can lock the front door. All it takes is a running head start and a few curse words.
*The house is bigger than it looks. And it will take 5+ hours to clean completely.
*I will have a dog (big, well trained dog) before fiance takes a job that requires a lot of traveling.
*I love those boys (roommates) like they are my brothers. And I love fiance even more than I did last week.

Now that the bachelor party is officially over.. Neil and I get to focus on taking care of the little details required to pull off a fab. wedding. I did a lot of online ordering today... whew. I also started the wedding to do list.

This list compiles all the wedding details we still have to complete... and its a big longer than I thought. Anyone got any FABULOUS ideas for "Welcome Baggies" for our outta town guests (like 60% of the wedding guests) or parent's gifts?? If so, do tell.

Anyway.. I still feel like time is flying by and I am not getting much of a chance to enjoy it. I'm just wishing that I could stop time and sit here for a second - remember what it feels like to be engaged and happy. I'm sure I will look back on these times when I am living with fiance and his 2 male roommates and smile. I do love those boys...

Ahhh... but for the time being.. I'm exhausted on this fine Monday night, and am really looking forward to the fiance coming home tomorrow so we can spend some time together. A week apart seems like a long time all of a sudden.. ha .. after years of long distance.

In other news, the banks came back with a counteroffer on the condo. 250000. Ugh. We've countered their counter. And.. we found a great other place to check out on Wednesday. Do me a favor and keep all your fingers and toes crossed.. I am just waiting to have a home again.

Night loves.
