Packing and stuff

I'm so excited about getting into our new apartment, but I'm so sick of packing! I was telling John on the phone last night that it always amazes me how much stuff I have that I don't even realize I have until I have to pack it all! It's rediculous! So every time I pack I always try to weed stuff out that I can get rid of or whatever, but I hardly ever find anything! It's more difficult too, this time, but I have to absolutely have everything out. It's not like moving out of my parents house where I can leave some of it and get it when I want to. At least we can do two or three runs back and forth between Concord and here Friday night. I would like to be able to get it all over to Concord Friday night, then we can have Saturday to unpack (for most of the day), and some of Sunday. It would be nice if we could get a lot of our unpacking done this weekend too. Fortunately for me, I unpack a lot faster than I pack, because I like to get it all up and done. Again I'll put out my plea for help Friday night. We still have our recruit Chris and John's parents have said they would come over and help, but it would great if we could get at least one more person. Actually, what would be great would be if U-Hauls weren't so expensive!!!
Anyway, I suppose I should start getting ready for my day. I so don't want to go work for 8 hours today. I wish I could call in dead today and tomorrow so I could finish packing and stuff.

Dude!

John and I found an apartment today!!! We're moving to Concord on the 13th! I'm so excited! So if anyone wants to help us move, Friday night's the big moving party! We're looking for all the help we can get, especially getting me out of my apartment. At least with Johns stuff we have a little more time to get his stuff out of his parents house. So far we have one recruit, thanks Chris!
I can't wait!!! :-D

Holy Cow

Okay, it's been well over a month since my last update. My apologies to those who look forward to their monthly dose of my ramblings. Things have been so busy lately, and are just now starting to wind down. I'm actually taking a break from a take home final I've been working on this afternoon. It's the only final I have this semester! WOO-HOO!!!! Can I just tell you how happy that makes me?
Overall, things have been going well. I'm not doing poorly in school, even though I thought at times this semester I was going to fail for certain. Plans for the wedding are coming along very smoothly, which makes me happy. I'm trying not to stress about that though. I just keep telling myself that if something doesn't go right, the only people that will know will be the members of the wedding party and my and Johns families. That thought has been keeping me sane for a lot of it.
Tomorrow I have an interview at the Rochester District Office for the possibility of getting a job there. It's not a formal interview, but it's just a chance for me to talk to the people there, say "this is what I'm interested in" and for them to say "this is what you'd be doing" and things like that. Then I have another interview in Concord on Friday. That one is going to be very fast though, because it's going to be during the lunch break of a training I'll be at that day. I'm a little nervous, but I think they'll go fine. I hope they will anyway. I need to make sure I print off copies of my résumé by tomorrow though.
I can't believe mothers day is this weekend already! I am going to mail my mom a card, because I can't get home this weekend to see her, but fortunately, since my Aunt Donna is coming home that weekend, we're going to get together and do something with my grandmother that day, since Mothers day is Sunday, my dads birthday is next Tuesday, and my grandmothers birthday is the Tuesday after that, we're just going to have a big party or something that day. I have to figure out what John and I are going to do as far as going home that weekend-it was another poor planning for me weekend. I'm going to be in Concord, then I'd have to go back to Dover, then back through Concord to get home that night. I guess I'll have to, since I think we're going to have to go home Friday night. My sister is going to the prom that night, so I may call Chris and Theresa and see if they want to get together with John and I.
Anywho - I need to get back to work on this final now, I suppose. Less than one week of classes left!!!
