Its the little things...

That totally make me love him even more and make me feel special.
Like when he says..."I like it when you wear your hair back, because I get to see more of your beautiful face". Who wouldn't want to hear that!
Yesterday we got back from a Tiger's game (our Baseball team) and looked in the bathroom and saw my shampoo and conditioner on the countertop. So I asked him if he had cleaned the shower...no he says. When I went to the store, I knew that you were running low and bought you some more. But I bought the wrong kind of shampoo, I'll take it back and get the right one. Shampoo is shampoo he was buying them by the color of the bottle. I just find it totally cute that he even thought of me when shopping and even notice what knd of shampoo I even use. He's totally a keeper.
I feel so loved...even if it is for the silly things.

Almost Free

Well next week is my court date for the big "d". I am nervous, excited, scared and optimistic. I can't wait for it to be over, even if I leave with less than I expect. I have what's most important right now...and that's happiness. I never thought I'd feel so relieved for it all to come to an end.
I am optimistic that we will soon become the world's best strangers...as it was likely intended to be in the 1st place. I still have some things at the house that I need to go clean up yet, but I should be able to get it all done next week before the 28th. Sigh...packing totally sucks.
Which I might add...I may be doing again soon. My roommate (who is my best friend and offered to let me stay as long as I needed) told me that she thinks its only fair that I should pay rent...which I have no issue with. THe issue I have is the amount of rent, which is $350 and 1/3 of the utilities, which in the end, would be like $450 a month. Shoot for $500 I could get my own place...ah wait, you have to have $$ to get your own place So bygones...I'll be storing stuff wherever I can and staying at my mom's...unless I stay at Joe's place a few days a week (so technically we won't be living together). ARGH... I hate packing....good thing most of my stuff never came out of the boxes, ;).

Friday Rant

I know that this seems petty but its driving me crazy!!! So yesterday I was driving down the road and I saw a sign for a "garage estate sale". It botherd me little then, but when I drove by again today it bothered me even more. Apparently, this person who made the sign has no idea what an estate sale is. How can you even have an estate sale in garage? That would very much indicate that the garage is indeed one's estate? Can that be? Anyway, it made me nuts...I was almost tempted to go check it out and ask them correct their sign, but in the interest of me being giddy about going on vacation tomorrow, I decided to leave well enough alone. I can't fix everyone's grammar...not that mine is perfect.

Melts my heart

So this weekend we (most of my family, my roommate and my BF) went away on our annual canoe trip. As usual it was a good time.
Joe actually passed the relationship test with flying colors as we were able to successfully and "drama free" canoe as a couple down the river. Only once did he manage to steer us into a tree branch, in which I grabbed on and wouldn't let go because I thought it would whack him in the face. Sadly, in not letting go, I fell off of my seat and banged my head and arm, it hurt like a son of gun, but it was alright. We didn't flip the canoe, so it was ok.
On Saturday night after all of the canoeing, awards and dinner. I hit the casino with my Aunt, cousin and Grandpa. Joe had no interest in going and hung out by the fire with the rest of my family while I was gone. I LOVE that I don't have entertain him!!! We were gone for about 2 hours and when we got back, he was still around the fire with my grandma, my cousin Tom and my mom...but he had a bundle on his lap. Apparently, he had gotten up and Lily (my cousin's 8 year old daughter) took his chair. When he got back he told her "your lap or mine?" After he proceeded to sit on her lap, she changed her mind and sat on his lap. No longer than 10 minutes later she was alseep on his lap with her arms around his neck. When I got back from the casino I saw this little Lily bundle curled up with him and it melted my heart...how sweet. I can't wait to have kids...he'll be such a good dad.
