Amy + Josiah!

WoW!  Today’s my last day at my job here in Steven’s Point!  It’s also my last day living with my loving grandparents. *sad* It’s been such a great summer, I’m kinda sad to leave here. I just got done cleaning out my room, vacuuming, stripping the bed, turning it back into a futon (that thing is unexpectedly heavy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)  Took all my things out of it, down to the last role of duct tape, and it’s so empty. But then, it dosn’t look like I’ve never lived there, so it’s not heartbreaking. Something about it still feels familiar. ^.^

Work was….. boring. >.< I was so excited because I finally put a book on tape onto my mp3 player (lots of dinking around, but I gots it!!!!!!!!!!) and then I get to the worksite, get my paint can ready, got my brushes, told my co-worker that if I didn’t repley it’s because I’m listening to a book, and then! My battery is dead. *slump* not fair…. *sigh* Oh well. It was probubly good thing, though. People arn’t nice to my co-worker (he gets on my nerves, too sometimes) but I know I’m suposed to be nice, and putting my earphones in and turning them all the way up is just another way of blocking the world. (which isn’t a bad thing, but Jesus would want me to at least make an attempt to be kind, and so I did today.)

Wee~! I also got my employee eval today! And my letter of recomendation!  *eyes grow large and fingers twitch* I couldn’t ask for better!  I worked my rear off with those two documents on my horizon, striving as hard as i could for them!  I work hard normally, and I pushed myself harder at this job just for them! (And because I loved my job!) Yes~! Paper gold!  A wonderful evaluation and a glowing letter of recomendation!!! *feels the triumph of a race well run!* *takes a deep breath and smiles* At least I accomplished one of my pre-wedding goals. It feels good. I pray they help me get the right job up in MI.

Wow, a week from tomarrow, I’m a Mrs. CRAZY!!

Wow!

 19 days until the wedding. I can’t help but sit back and blink a little, sitting here at home this monday night.

This last weekend was the weekend that we moved most of my stuff into the new house, and we moved Josiah into it. It was hard work, but a blast! My wonderful parents helped, but they had to go home saturday night. I stayed until monday morning. I slept at Josiah’s mom’s house, but sunday was all ours! I love our new house, it already feels like home, it really does! It was hard to leave this morning. That house got to feel so much like home this weekend, leaving at the end of the day to sleep elsewhere, and then leaving for my parent’s house this morning felt bizzar!

This week, and then the next, and I’m done with work. Wow, it’s hard to believe my life is changeing for good. But I’m getting more and more comfortable with it. I can see myself living in Michigan, and living with Josiah. I count myself blessed beyond measure to have such a wonderful man as not only my friend, but my soon to be husband. *shakes head in amazment* I’m lost for words!

 There’s so much to do for the wedding, and so much is already done. *shakes head* And all I’m going to do tonight is make my lunch for tomarrow, and go to sleep. *laughs* Okies! Goodnight!

Whew!

We finally got to the last of our pre-wedding counciling thingys! I’m almost sad about it. On one hand, we’re two months to the day from wedded bliss, on the other hand, we don’t get to have those fun sessions with Pastor Nathan anymore! They were really fun. It really was a lot of fun to talk about stuff with someone from a different perspective than what we’re used to, and plus, we’re all such geeks we just have a blast!

 So, at least we don’t have to get up to the altar and find out we failed our marraige test. (gilligan’s isle)

We got to go swiming this weekend too!  I havn’t been swiming in years, but this weekend I went twice with Josiah, and I’m planning on taking my little sister with me tomarrow!  It’s such a blast. *yawns contently* and good exercize!  Maybe if I make the effort to swim every chance I get, I’ll slim down for the wedding! *ponders this with a grin* Maybe I should just throw a towel and my suit in the back of my car when I go to work, and then jump in the lake at Jordan for a while before I go home from work! *Raises an eyebrow*

 Anyway, I’m getting to the babbling point now, and I wish to rip duct tape for roses. I think I’ll print out Josiah’s tutorial and try my hand at makeing them as well!

Oh ya! We’re getting rsvp’s back, and we got our first wedding card back, to Mr. and Mrs. Josiah! *squeels* I’m gunna be Mrs. Josiah! ^.^ *happy*

Yay!  We had a party for the fourth of july today! Well, okay, I know it’s the 5th of july, but that’s also my Grandpa’s B-day, and my brother’s B-day is the 4th, and my friend Katie’s B-day is the 6th, so it seemed a good day. (plus, it’s a saturday, can’t beat that!)

 We had cake and ice cream first, and then dinner, which was awsome, and then we played games and had card tricks and stuff, which was nice.  And then, after almost everyone went home, we had an awsome waterfight. All sorts of water guns, water balloons, and just plain buckets of water! *grins* My hair is still drying!

 I wish Josiah could have been there, but he couldn’t come this 4th of July weekend, and I couldn’t go up there this year, so oh well.  It sucks, but I don’t think I’m going to get to see him until the 18th of July, which is harsh, but I guess that’s life, neh?

 Oh!  We went house hunting and found the one we want!  Now all we have to do is figure out how to get the loan for it!  I really pray hard that it goes smoothly, because I have my heart set on that house.  But, hey, if we end up renting, it’s not the end of the world, it’ll just seem like it.

 Wedding plans speeding up! DJ booked, next project Flowers and Cake! ^.^

Its almost here!(Calendarwise at least)

Today is two days before my birthday, and im feeling great!  The big day is coming closer, but it still seems so far away.  On another note, I bought the domain www.near-hit.com and plan on putting all things related to the conspiracy of supressing near hit with the impostor: “Near miss”.

Summer Geocaching is well on its way to a good start, now with two hides under my belt and at least 5 more I want to get out before next week im going to be busy.  Sofar no finds on my caches but im expecting that to change soon as the weekend rolls around.

“The project” is also underway and going quite well.  No Amy Im not telling you  what it is!

Well thats about it for me right now.
