stress is my middle name

theres SO much going on right now! or it seems like it to me i guess. whats funny is, on the other hand-i feel like i have way too much free time-joeys coming home date feels like its taking forever to get here!

work as usual for me--my schedule has been SUPER crazy but my boss told me in the next 2wks we'll start our 'set' schedule. ill work mon-fri and get off at 1 everyday, and i CAN pickup more hours on the wkend if i want to,all good news! im very much looking forward to that. i havent been able to get on any kind of sleep-routine since getting back from the beach, because my hours have been so inconsistent. but still loving my job and very happy to be there!

joeys still workin away at out-processing, he's done 8 out of 11 steps (as he put it) and step 11 is him getting on the plane to come home! so he's close, and aug.14th is right around the corner (even though,like i said--feels like its taking forever). i keep telling myself i have the rest of this week, all of next week--and then the NEXT week is the week he comes home. i am SO ready. BEYOND ready.

im really itching to get our own place, but i may have to hold off on scratching that itch--i really dont know when we're going to be able todo that. hopefully soon.
in the meantime we have ALOT coming up:
-joey comes home
-joeys coming home party
-Michigan trip in September
-"Second Wedding" in February

amongst a million little things todo as well as him finding a job, starting with the Reserves, possibly starting school,us trying to find a house, ect ect ect!

the wedding stuff has me stressed out ALREADY--which is funny considering we're already married,ha. its kind of at a stand-still today, we have to wait till joeys home to do anything, or get any kind of information from the church...so we have till sometime next month. while waiting on that--im working on a guest list, which is harder than you think! its hard to sit here and think of EVERYONE i know/want to invite, for fear of leaving someone out. ive had to take breaks because i end up staring into space drawing a blank!

really nothing exciting going on other than planning/preparing for different things. ive been working like crazy (as i said), IMPATIENTLY awaiting joeys return (as i said), and trying to find stuff to do in between. tonight i went and saw a movie by myself for the first time-- a little depressing but not bad ha. i really wanted to see 'My Sister's Keeper' and couldnt find ANYONE to go with me so...i just went alone.

im loving my Kindle--ive had it barely a week and have already read 3 books on it; it sounds crazy but when i watched the videos about kindle people were saying they found themselves reading faster, i thought that was strange till i just realized i read 3 books in a week. faster than normal for me! i love my husband for getting that for me. incredible.

now im rambling--staying up late (again) and waiting on hubs to get back from Formation so i can webcam with him some before i goto bed.
no exciting updates in this boring life for now!
