Re: devil ducky
WTF. I have to hear about this on the NEST!??? Um, hello? That's why god invented text messaging.
You and I have some serious talking to do, DD. I do believe that you owe me an adult beverage or two to redeem yourself for this friendship infraction.
(Seriously, though, YAY!!)
Thanks!!!!!!! We are both pretty excited. Since we already have things planned out for the next year to year and a half, he thought it would be a good idea to go ahead and start some of the stuff this summer. He was really big on not moving in before marriage. Hence why our situation has been the way it has been for so long. But with graduation nearing (december) he said that it's close enough to go ahead and start the whole thing. We've decided that it's best for all parties and families concerned to wait for the official engagement until after graduation. Wedding next summer/fall. So.... yay!!!
And CJ, that's why I posted it under confessions. We've been holding off telling anyone... and by anyone I mean my folks, specifically my mother because who knows what war that would start. Also, we are keeping it on the down low since there are others around us with more exciting news and we don't want to be thunderjackers. (All our former childless friends are having or just found out they are having babies). And I mean ALL of them. So I apologize for not letting you or Des know sooner. We are still waiting to see if in fact the roommate moves out. Im so freaking excited. After everything that's happened in the last year, I feel these last 6 months have been such a blessing and such a turn around in my life, my attitude, my whole being. It's just more and more awesome every day!
