Oh my word, not another one.

Once again, I open up the darned Knot page, suckered into it by an intriguing article I was tempted to peruse, and there it was- the countdown.  55 days and counting...I looked at Kenny and said, "I need to blog."
We are currently sitting at the home of the Huizars, getting ready to print labels/response cards/directions.  It's funny how just when you think you have one thing done, someone asks a question and your hand is forced- you must reply, "No. We don't have that done yet. In fact, we never even thought of it." So let's all pray that what we want done actually gets done today.

In other news, I AM MOVED.  No, not emotionally, but physically moved out of my apartment!  Holy crap, I can't believe it.  In fact, that is also what inspired the need for blogging.  My first night in my new house and I had another awful wedding dream.  I was recounting it to Kenny in the car and summed it up with, "Well, I just hope that nothing ends up like that.  Nothing."  That includes the wedding party walking down the aisle to "Hey Ya" by accident, me forgetting to put on any makeup, wearing a mullet wedding dress (short in the front, long in the back- what the HECK), and myself walking down the aisle with a sparkler.
I'll give you a second with all of those horrifying possibilities.


This qualified as a nightmare, folks.  I was beyond thankful to wake up and have reality hit me. I awoke in the new house, however, and that was a little strange. I do stress the "little." What's even weirder is that it doesn't feel that strange at all.  Even sitting in the living room last night, boxes everywhere, I felt at home.  STRANGE, huh? I thought I would feel like a fish out of water, but not at all.  We had only been there a total of maybe three times, and not for long, but it just felt right.
Anyway, enough about that. Just wanted to keep you posted (heh, that pun never ceases to make me chuckle) and let you know that there is now a Soldano home base. It feels good. I can now devote an entire corner of the living room to wedding stuff.  *lets out deep breath*  Let the projects begin!
Feel free to bring by a casserole or festive flowerpot at your leisure. ;)
Finally, to add to our new home, we were able to purchase a coffee table and matching littler table off the side of Aurora from a guy named "Jim" who was shirtless, shoe-less, with a long grey beard. But Kenny got him down to $25 dollars in the end. It needs to be refinished, of course, along with the kitchen table from the Latvian rummage sale, but they look good already.  Go figure.
