Long One

Ok friends this is gonna be a long post it has been a while since I was last on so here we go!!! I officially have my car back and it is pretty much like mine. It still has a different smell not really bad but not normal. I got it back last Saturday when I went home to go apple picking! Basically Josh and Chad had a meeting in Cambridge so they were driving right through Columbus so they dropped me off, or I dropped my self off and the took the car. I hung out with my family and went apple picking. We had tons of fun. And got tons of apples. I stayed at my parents until Sunday so that was a good break. Monday I had work and had a random night of baking with Krista. She has never made apple pies or such. So we made it a night. We made 2 large pies, 2 small pies, a crisp and turnovers. It was fun and crazy I will have to have Krista load the pics. Before our baking adventure we decided to go wash and clean Josh's car, not such a great idea. He was at Danny's watching his shows. I thought he was going to be there until 11:00 but it was until 10:00 and I was wrong. So we got the car and went to clean it then I received a not so happy call from Josh. So he was not very pleased with the whole situation!! Oops. Also we have been engaged for a month! Yea, for having nothing accomplished! Yesterday I went to Dayton and visited flower factor and a dress shop! I hate dress shops, because every dress I like is $800-$850 no fair! But I found a place that might work for the brides maid dresses. After that little bit of fun I had lunch with the in laws-to-be. After coming back to OX we had kids night and had 12 it was a pretty ok night for us. The kids did ok they seemed to have fun. We have been talking about moses. After Kids we had coffee house, it was pretty neat. Micha played a little concert, he is a newer addition to the Bridge Family and he writes his own music and plays guitar. And Andy had the whole Cafe' style set for the house and he played the host as normal. Today was well a day. At work we have been transiting, we have a new girl and we are looking to hire a another. Right now they are attempting to sort out the work and figure out who is going to do what and this means most of what I have been doing I am no longer doing! I deiced today that I need to start going in earlier so I can accomplish stuff before everyone is there and are distracting. After my 9 hours at work I went and hung out with Whitney! Yea! That was nice to have a bit of vent time. And to have someone that is sitting in my same shoes is helpful. Agenda for tonight: Watch Josh play video games and Family Night!!!

Wedding Stress Moment!

So officially (well I might of had others but today was official) today was wedding stress day! Josh called Kettering to see if they had decided on if we were able to rent the church for the wedding. Which we are but they want $800 for the event. OK so that is not too bad considering other places cost much more. But we can not truly afford that. So we are back to the drawing board! So mostly piling everything that has happened over the last few days on has set me over the rim. I need to not focus on everything so much and let God piece things together. So right now we have no wedding location :( But hopefully we will soon. Because I need to know the where before I can decorate in my head.

Gross!

So my car returned today around 9pm ish. I was very gross for the most part. The inside was filled with random clothing and a strong odor of smoke. I cleaned out everything and pretty much went over the car with a fine tooth comb to ensure there was no other damage that might of been missed. But to my liking the car was in pretty great condition minus the personal artifacts that were no longer present in the vehicle, such as my "true love waits ring", my ds lite, the ds games, $130 and my insurance and registration. But most can be replaced. The outside of the car has a thick coating of dirt and grime it needs a bath or two!!. After a good vaccuming and a shampooing I think the car is pretty close to the same as it was before it was taken.!!!

Dress Shopping Day 1

So today my mother, older sister (MOH) , and I went dress shopping for the first time. I had prepared myself as much as possible. I expected it to be overwhelming and a lot to take in. And it was. I tried on so many different dresses because I had no clue what I liked or wanted. Finally I found a style of some sort that I preferred. (I am not going into too much detail b/c Josh does read my blog from time to time) We found a few that I like and of course they were in the $800 - $1000 range...which is way out of my desired budget. So I stressed a little. I really am not all that worried about the dress. But when everyone starts telling you that your going to have to get it ordered in and that could take up to 4 months and then if you need it atlered that is another 3-4 weeks that means I need to order a dress within the next month or two at the latest!! Ahh pause and breath! The day was lonog but semi productive.

Cheddar

Well over the weekend Monica called me and told me that Cheddar her cat was not doing so well, he has been sick for a few days and they did not think he was going to make it much longer. It was very sad to sit and talk with her about her poor little cat and how it would probably will not make it past the week. Well today I found out that he is no longer with us! So pray for Monica!
