Weeeeee!

Obnoxious post title, but that’s kind of how I feel at the moment.  Plus, it’s quite the change from the tone of my last post, wherein, I was a sick and whiny bitch, no? 

There’s no particular reason for the total change of mindset.  This weekend saw nothing fantastic happen.  B and I got a lot of rest, did some housecleaning, ran a lot of errands, and accomplished some major grocery and essentials shopping.  We were out of EVERYTHING — right down to body wash, deodorant, trash bags, and kitty litter.  It was one of THOSE trips.  It took 4 hours to get it all done.  Yikes.  Our bank account is currently cussing us out.  We had dinner with some friends on Saturday night, and laid around being lazy yesterday.  But for some reason, I feel as though the wheels are turning, and good things are on their way. 

Okay so can I just divulge some of the latest details about my engagement ring?  Well, faithful freaders will recall that it’s been about four months since we picked out and ordered my setting.  It’s been a loooooong four months my friends!  The ring took forever to arrive to the store, about 10 weeks, due to them being overly-busy (holiday season and such), and the fact that it had to be completely manufactured and sized appropriately.  From there, B had the monumental task of picking out a diamond for the setting.  That was about a month ago.  It’s been taking a while because the ring is kind of expensive (okay, pretty damn expensive — more expensive than we were anticipating), and B had to save up money for it.  It’s just about paid for!  I have no idea what the diamond looks like, or when it’s going to be ready.  I hope very soon, because I cannot wait.  I’m the world’s most impatient person and these kinds of things are hard to keep quiet, but I’ve been doing my best. ;)  It may end up being a while because I know B wants to surprise me with it, by asking me when I least expect it.  Just keep your fingers crossed that it will be soon and all will be well!

I’m just so happy today I could squeal!  The sky is blue, the bills are paid, and everything is going well.  It hasn’t always been easy, and I know it won’t always be easy, but I have a lot of good things to look forward to.  Like my trip to NYC, which is next month! 

Thank you all so, so much for your kind comments and emails on my last post.  What did I ever do without you guys, seriously?!
