Newlyweds

Just filed the marriage license with the county yesterday and received it back in the mail today. Guess there's something to be said for living in a small community. Now to get a 'certified' copy so I can get my name changed (by mail) with social security administration and then I will be legal! Of course then I will need to change my name on everything else. Since my drivers license is due to be renewed this year and I need to change my address I will just do everything at once!

The honey is back on the road--in Laredo tonight. Waiting for another run and hoping for a good one this time so he can make some money--since I've been spending it. Will probably be October before he gets home again. Kinda sucks but will deal. We've managed six months already. Another six months and his commitment will be up and he can switch companies--hopefully something that keeps him close to home more.

Milestones....

August 2012 has been a month for milestones......I moved out of the apartment into my very first home. And heaven help me I may never find everything! While I did purge a lot, there is still more to go. I have decided I will do my best to get rid of things I don't use, won't use or don't absolutely love. Even then I'll still have more than enough.

The other big milestone was getting married. The honey is home briefly-came in Tuesday, leaves tomorrow. We've talked often about when to get married, how, etc. Our schedules are nuts which makes it even more difficult to make any sort of plans. There had been talk of October but who's to say we'd truly be able to plan for a specific time?

We knew we wanted something small so we decided there was no time like the present. Knowing there is a three day waiting period from issue to the time you can marry we cut it somewhat close getting our license. Things began to fall into place and who were we to question.

With little planning--and I do mean little--we got some friends together and made it official. Now I just need to file the license with the county!
