Entries tagged with “settling” from Prom to Altar
This weekend will be the first one since August that we'll spend at home, in our own apartment. We moved into this apartment on August 1, unpacked anything we'd need for the next 6 weeks, and left everything else in boxes. Or in shambles. And then there was an explosion of favors and escort cards in our dining room. Basically, it's an unruly and overwhelming mess around here.
This was our dining room a month ago.
We've managed to clear off the table enough to eat at it, but the progress ended there.

The move is almost complete-- we have found no more love for U-Haul, but more and more love for our very helpful friends, who have been gung-ho about helping us every step of the way, even amid their own stressful situations (and most times in the rain).
A little bit of clean up and another carload to take care of the dregs left at the old place, and that's that. Well, besides the massive amount of unpacking and settling in to do at the new place. How did so much stuff come out of that tiny apartment? We are loving the new place, though-- it's so sunny and inviting, even when it's decorated in cardboard boxes. I can't wait for it to be all set up.
As for the wedding, RSVPs are coming in (and there have only been a couple small riots over the guest list as invitations have been received. Same answer to everyone about big family/limited space/limited budget... still, it's hard to keep the guilt at bay), payments due are coming up, and every day this wedding is getting more and more real. This coming weekend it's back to Albany for a dress fitting and a hair/make up trial. We haven't been to Albany in two weeks-- they must be wondering what happened to us!
So many things to write about and only 5 minutes at a time to devote to this blog... perhaps by the end of the week I'll have time to talk about our cake topper, or the name change question, or the favor indecision...
p.s. In case you missed the update to a previous post.... comments are working again! Thank you, Patrick.
