I have a wedding date!
 
OK, y'all wanted to know, so I'm posting this from George's computer
since mine is not up and running yet, nor do I have a phone line or
ISP yet.

But I will marry George on Wednesday, October 29, 2003 at 4:30 PM!

That's one big thing, getting that date set after my move. Otherwise,
working hard at moving in, shaping up the house, etc... I do like it
here in North Dakota so far. Except for the lack of quality fresh
vegetables and fruits! Well, sometimes you find them on sale, but it's
rare. Frozen are OK, but not quite my cup of tea.

I am walking some, so is George. Though the weather is getting
chillier. It's hard on my ankles, but I'm trying to do a mile every
couple days. Our neighborhood is quite nice to walk in!

I've lost some pounds since my move... most in one big whoosh, and
about a pound a week since. I hit 240 today! Yeah!

Cooking again is good!

Gotta go, have work to do, but thought I'd check in to post this. More
later when my computer is back up and running. That's what I'm working
on, getting the room it goes in painted, so I can move my desk in.

The cat is adjusting, but has security issues. He does not like seeing
his new daddy go off to work. Oddly, though he is used to being
outdoors a lot, he doesn't much want to go outdoors here. I've been
taking him out some anyway, on his leash and harness.

He has taken to occupying George's chair when George leaves. It's
weird getting used to George doing these various shifts. When we first
got here, he was on a day shift... but is now on graveyard. My body is
confused too, even though I am not following his schedule.

I have a wedding date!
 
Glad to hear all the good news. I'll have no problem remembering your
wedding date as it's my son's birthday. Congratulations on being able to
lose during this stressful time. If you think it's chilly now just wait
until winter hits g

I know this is a busy time but do check in as often as possible. Glad to
hear everything is going well for you and George.

Glad you're settling down OK (note to self: consult map of US to find

The big day isn't far off now - and there had better be some photos!!



We haven't hired a photographer, but with luck, the family will take
some. I can't promise much... it's going to be simple and casual dress
ithink. I don't have much else and am not sure I can find much else at
Wal-Mart. (Our major shopping experience here in town.)

Williston is a short drive to Montana and about an hour from the
Canadian border.

It's funny, but now I have a date, I feel less stressed. Though there
are other things to arrange yet and I have to get on them. This week
though, I'm trying to get the computer into place. Pooped out last
night, but will be washing walls in here today, quietly, while George
sleeps.

Also must run some errands. I just shoved George out the door for a
brief walk before he goes night-night. I'll hopefully get mine later
if my ankles hold up. Climbing up and down a ladder tends to mess them
up quick, but at least I had a good walk yesterday.

Thanks! I hope we will too!

It's funny how quickly the cat has glommed onto George... he woke me
up at 7:12 AM wanting breakfast, but then after he ate a bit, he
jumped back into bed and sat there looking out our window (faces onto
the street we park on) in hopes of seeing his daddy come home.

I got up, they were both in here, George on the computer and Gray
sleeping in the chair next to him. When George leaves for work, Gray
often occupies his chair.

Oh yeah, I am happy to be losing some! Even if it's only a pound or so
a week, anything that might make my good pants fit better is a plus!

I have an appointment scheduled soon for some blood work, it's been
years since I had any... hopefully the news won't be bad. The clinic
here was running a special for the public at a decent price and I
thought I'd go for it.

So soon, I'll know more about things like my blood sugar and
cholesterol and all that than I've ever known before.

There are not many options for gyms in town, but we may join one that
doesn't look too bad. I don't think we'll want to walk outside in full
winter with the sidewalks icy and all that.

Once my computer is up, should post more regularly.

Are you wearing braces for those ankles?I really hope you do - that
will give you the added support and you need to be careful going up
and down laddres. You don't want to be the blushing bride on
crutches!
