Christmas Time is Here...

Merry Christmas to everyone!! :)

Today is Christmas and though I didn't get to spend it with my hunny and his family like I had hoped, it is nice to be able to spend another year with my parents and sisters as well as my brother and his family who should be here soon! It's been a nice relaxing day with anticipation of some fantastic dinner to come! (Ham, Turkey and all the other famous holiday foods that are bound to make you gain 10lbs!)

I haven't heard any word yet from the British Embassy in regards to my visa, but now they are closed until the Wednesday (the 29th) so I don't think I will be in England for New Years either ((POUT!!)) Sooo....Yeah! The waiting continues! Still just trying hard to remain positive!

Other news, my wedding dress made it to England! LOL! So at least I don't have to worry about that! But hopefully after these holidays I can still fit into that dress!! Lol! I can't seem to get the numbers to budge, it's maddening really! At least I'm not gaining! I have a feeling that I will lose in England though because I'm back to my own cooking and daily activities, I will have access to a full gym, etc. So it's fine, today, I'm just going to try to enjoy the day (including the food!).

Not much to tell these days, so I think I will keep it short and sweet! I hope you all have a very merry Christmas and enjoy this day of celebration, love and family!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

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
