No adventure for you, not yours!

Its probably better that we scratch the plans for an adventure on short notice... I think its probably best that my sinuses heal up from this sinus infection and that I get some R&R with Michael. With Michael in school too, I miss him more and I spend a lot of time aimlessly surfing the net and doing homework for classes next week (yes, I am ahead, if you can believe that!)

I am starting to think about Christmas (this year will require more saving and frugalness because we are both in school!) Right now, it sounds like Zach will deploy and hopefully he will afford a plane ticket for Mom to Seattle if she cant afford it herself. I guess I could work miracles and keep bonusing at work so that I can fly her here too. Or I could just hide under a rock and pretend like it doesnt matter. I miss having my family here.

I am enjoying school and I find it somewhat challenging and equally rewarding. I am also looking forward to the end of the quarter, already. I am just so ready to be done working on my degree. I know I am going to be much more marketable and hopefully can get a few more $$ and maybe a new car of my choosing... I would really like to redo the kitchen.

Still no new info on the wedding, I keep meaning to do something about that but Jenni is heading to Makati on Sunday for two weeks, then its Aaliya's birthday, then Thanksgiving is coming and then finals, Jace and Michael and Anna's birthdays and Christmas, then school starts again and then Ryan and my birthdays, pretty soon May 16th will come and go. I am having elopement thoughts again because I dont have the desire to dress shop, scout locations, talk to caterers and deal with any family issues and no one but me seems to care about a wedding, so why bother? (I think Laurel cares too, she at least hears me when I talk about it...)
