Great Times!

There have been some great things going on for me. First, I found out last weekend that I was selected to go to get my adjusters license! Provided that I pass the test, I will get a raise and also be able to apply for the next step up the Claims ladder. I'm going to be in class for the next two weeks and I'm really excited about it!

Because I'm going to be in class, my schedule worked out that I got a three day weekend so I went down to see my mom. It was great to see her and Julie. Julie was so generous and gave me her slip, bra, and veil from when she got married. I tried it all on at her house and danced around her living room for awhile looking like a dork but felt so much like a bride, I couldn't help myself. Mom and I got to do some shopping and visiting. I wish I lived closer to her. Our shopping was to find her a mother of the bride dress, but we didn't find anything. On the other hand, I got a few cute things. :) I found these beauties for Mom, but she wasn't feeling it.




But the BEST part was that I got some wedding gifts!! YAY! Christina got us the grill we had registered for. She wanted us to be able to use it this summer. I know you aren't supposed to use wedding gifts before hand...but hey, Bliss and I are superstitious people so I plan on making some bbq chicken tomorrow night! We also got our luggage from Mom. I'm excited to have good luggage now! AND Julie and Jane bought us our new sleeping bag for my shower since they wont be able to make it. Then to top all that off, when I got home, my wedding ring had arrived! Its great!

I'm off to bed now. I have to get up at a normal person's work day time and its going to kick my ass. Hopefully I'll stay awake tomorrow! Wish me luck in class!!
