22 days....

• Until life as I know it changes
• Until I'm accountable to someone other than myself
• Until I move in with a boy (yikes)
• Until I marry my soul mate

All these things run through my head multiple times per day. It's been a dizzying 10 months for both JD and myself. In the past three months, I have taken a new job (that I love, by the way), and began planning the rest of my life with JD. Believe me, there have been days where it seemed everything was against me (and us) and there have been other days of pure joy and happiness. But, so is life.

Now, 22 days out, our focus is not on what needs to be done - because it's all done - but rather on our new life with each other. We've been talking about finances, babies, cars, homes, and random conversations about drinking glasses. But all in all, I do think we've gotten closer through the planning. My emotions spike. I'm really not an even-keeled type of girl. But through it all, we've become closer and better at understanding our stressors. I think that's a good thing.

But, boy are we ready for this thing to get here. We're so tired of talking about it. It's all a dream until April 2nd.

We both turned 30 recently (Feb. 22 and March 4) so we're feeling good. Our thirties are looking promising.
