Re: *TGIF*
SOOO happy it's Friday!!
Rant: H was so stressed out over his job earlier this week he actually wasn't eating or sleeping. It breaks my heart! I'm hoping things will change soon as his manager had an interview for a transfer on Monday.
Raves: it's our one year anniversary this weekend and H is off all weekend!
WP: Not sure yet. I think we're going out to dinner with a friend tonight. Tomorrow we might go to a Renaissance fair or just hang out and run some errands. I'm not sure what we're doing on Sunday yet either, other than going to our wedding venue for dinner.
Weekend Plans: Tonight we're going to the IL's to borrow a ladder and grab some boxes that they have for our move. Then we'll be packing some more.
Tomorrow, we're going to Lowe's and Home Depot to pick out paint colors and to buy a thousand things we're going to need for painting, etc. And I'm FINALLY going to drop off my wedding dress to get cleaned/preserved.
On Sunday, we're going to pick up our anniversary cake from our wedding baker (and I'm going to try not to eat it all in 1 day)! Our anniversary isn't until next weekend, but since we'll be moving then, we're getting the cake early. And then- you guessed it- more packing... blah!
Rants: I hate packing. I know I should be excited to finally own a home, but I can't get excited yet because I'm just annoyed by all the boxes and current chaos in our apartment. I'm sure I'll be excited when I'm unpacking though! And at least I know I won't have to pack/move after this for a very very long time!
Rant/Confession: I'm feeling torn about the move because it happens to fall on our anniversary weekend. On the one hand, buying our first home is an awesome gift to ourselves and it's kinda cool that it's happening exactly 1 year after we got married. But it also ruins any anniversary celebratory plans we had, since we'll be consumed with the move. I'm sure we'll go out to celebrate the week after or something, but I'm a little sad that we won't actually be doing anything on the actual day.
Raves: I am so excited to eat yummy cake (see above). And I'm excited to become a homeowner soon (see- totally torn, haha)
Weekend Plans:
It's graduation AND anniversary weekend! Tonight is my hooding ceremony, so my parents and IL's will be coming into town this afternoon. Tomorrow morning is graduation, and then we're going out for a fancy dinner with my parents and IL's. Sunday is our anniversary, and I don't know if we have anything planned. We're also in the process of moving (next weekend I move) so things have been really chaotic- so probably more packing on Sunday.
Raves:
I'm finally done with school! 8 years is a long time... it's been quite the journey, and I'm ready to start the next chapter of our lives. I'm so excited to have my parents in town too, they have only visited a few times since we've been in Nebraska!
Rants:
I hate packing!! Haha
Rants:
Work. Still. Haven't heard anything about this job I sort of applied for, either. Boo.
Raves:
The upside of work is that we are 99.9% sure that our CEO's son is going to be on the bachelorette this season. We are using it as an excuse to have a party haha
Weekend Plans:
I have a kickball tournament all day tomorrow, and then the after party is tomorrow night. I'm so excited to see all my out-of-state kickball buddies, who I haven't seen in over a year, since I haven't traveled all for kickball. No plan for Sunday, and it's probably better that way
After 2 years of TTC, lots of tests, and a Hysteroscopy/Laparoscopy to remove several polyps,
Clomid/IUI #1 3/14: cancelled due to surprise BFP 3/8/14.
Beta 1 3/11: 398 Beta 2 3/13: 728 Beta 3 3/20: 11,482
Surprise BFP turns into Surprise Twins!

Thanks! I feel your pain with the packing, I wish you the best of luck! We are moving to a rental townhouse so know we have at least one more move ahead of us- I'm so jealous that at least after this, you can settle in and relax. Enjoy your new house, keep us updated on the progress!!
Rants: H has drill this weekend so it is just me and the dogs until Sunday night, bummer.
Raves: Mr. Mogley (my foster puppy) goes home on Sunday! I am so happy that we were able to find him a home and that it is with one of my friends so I'll be able to watch him grow
Weekend Plans: We're doing a neuter clinic tomorrow at work to benefit ACS. My friend and I might go play bingo tomorrow night
but mostly, I'll just be bumming around the house!
Rants: I think when I went one on my cleaning urges I miss placed one of H's text books (he dropped the class so he didn't need the book & couldn't return it till end of semester) so I am tearing the apt. apart to find it. Driving me nuts I remember seeing it so many places I do not know where it went GRR. So now he is going to get a fine if I do not find it...
Wish he would have kept it in his backpack....
Raves: Hubby is graduating college tomorrow hurray
and next week wed- sat we are in florida for our 1 year anniversary & H's job interview 
. I am so exited for everything that is going on hopefully H gets this job. He really needs it for him to keep positive.
Weekend Plans: Saturday H & my BIL are graduating from UWSP. So my parents my sister her boyfriend & his parents, brothers & his grandparents are coming up to Stevens Point for that. Sunday I work so the Graduation is all that is going on
