At least there has been some progress to moving forward to this next chapter! I found out a few days ago that the British Embassy has gotten my paperwork and they say they will have it processed within the next 5-15 working days. (But my lawyer says they typically move very quick so I should hear something pretty quick...With all hope!) I'm trying not to get my hopes up every day when I check the mail! (Especially since it's waaayyy to early to get anything anyways!) But it's hard because I'm so anxious!

Tomorrow morning I have the movers coming to re-pack my items and take to ship off (they needed to be re-packed anyways as I had packed them using clothes and towels as padding, so it would be good to have them packed a little more professionally). Funny enough, the process was insane, it's like I have to push myself on these companies to get them to work with me! LOL! I originally called 4 different companies to get quotes. 3 out of 4 actually responded back, never heard from the 4th one! 2 out of the three companies came back with a quote by last Friday, I FINALLY heard from the 3rd company yesterday (and they were $1,000 more than everyone else! LOL!). But I boiled it down to the cheapest company that will pack, ship, clear customs for me, then deliver it to my door within 60-90 days for around $1,485.00 which is a lot better than I had anticipated and it's nice that they are willing to start the process so fast (tomorrow!) which means that I will have less waiting time for my stuff when I get there! :)

Other than that, I'm pretty boring! I spend most of my days talking to the fiancee, working out, playing around on my laptop and doing things with my sisters. It'll be fun to start reporting on my experiences in England when I starting living there! I will try to make it more interesting and post pictures and stuff for you guys to see! :D So now if a good time to tell me what kind of stuff you want to see and know about! Feel free to message ideas to me!

Till we meet again...Live, Laugh, Love!!

Little "mini-ventures" to make time pass!

So, I haven't had anything going on which has been the reason for no new updating posts, but I have been contemplating things that I want to do before I leave the states and start my new adventure! (Plus, I want something to talk about!!) So one mini-venture I thought I would get started is maybe (and I KNOW this is cliche'!): Losing a few pounds! (I just heard a million sighs and groans! LOL!) I have gained a little in the last couple months because of my food intake and well, I NEED to fit into that wedding dress! So, I'm praying to lose at least 5 pounds in the next 2 months (if not quicker!) and 10-15 by the time we do our honeymoon! SO, wish me luck and I will keep you updated on the progress! (This officially starts tomorrow by the way!) The 2nd idea I had was to start some sort of video blog to post to this as well just for fun or to show surroundings, etc! I was working on the idea tonight, but couldn't figure out how to work my hp mediasmart programs! LOL!

STILL Waiting!!!

UGHHH!!!! This is torture!! How long must I endure the painful wait?? (Please no comments of it "building character"....I DON'T CARE!!) I'm just very anxious! I thought I would be there by now and I'm finding myself stuck in the land of "what if?"...By this I mean questions that cause me to worry like "What if it got lost in the mail??", "What if they are taking so long because they are going to say no??", "What if it takes many months more to get my approval??"...etc! It's all stressful! I only have so much money to stretch out to a certain point! So, my fear is that I will run out of funding and need to get a temp job to make ends meet and Dave will have to pick up my slack more...*pout!* I don't know if my paperwork is coming via normal snail mail or certified mail, UPS, etc. and my biggest worry is that it gets lost! I have tried to remind myself that I DID receive the letter stating that it would take them 5-1

I'm Officially Married!!

Phew! What a wonderful past week! My heart is glowing and there's a permanent grin on my face today! I can't remember what I've posted in the past (I didn't look) so I will start with last Friday! Logically, I've been itching to make some friends and Friday night the one girl friend that I have right now invited me to go out with her and two others for a night in the town! Though they said it wasn't the best of all nights out there, I had a great time! One, because I was out with people and not alone! Two, because it was interesting to view the people and get a sense of things and so forth. It was just refreshing to get out and feel a part of something! Our wedding ceremony went great! Before the ceremony, we invited everyone over to the apartment for mimosa's (I didn't have any, I was too busy running around trying to get ready!) then we went off the the registrar office to have the ceremony, which I thought for a small short ceremony that it went
