We’re getting so close to August! I can’t believe how much there is to do! On top of all the last minute wedding stuff that needs done/decided/pondered/encouraged I also have quite a lot on my plate at work. We have a goal set to get 10 chapters and the book proposal done before I leave for the wedding. We’ve got 6 done, and I’ve been circling around 2 others and the proposal, trying to get my thoughts and all of the details together to make it work. I think today I got through quite a lot of the confusion, and we’re now closer to have 8 chapters and the proposal done, leaving me with two chapters to start this week and finish up next week. I was starting to feel the strain a bit, especially when one of my files was nowhere to be found. But things are under control, for now. My job will change a bit as school starts, allowing me to focus mainly on the book and the blogging work and less on admin duties (not that I actually do too much, now)- which will be great. It’s going to be rather interesting juggling school, work, and a new marriage (not put in order of importance) come September. Just another of life’s big adventures. I can’t WAIT to graduate. I’m really earnestly interested in getting this book going and learning more about the publishing arena. Grad school, yes, but not for a bit.
So, in house news, we’ve really started to get things set up! EVEN pictures on the walls! The painting arrived from home. It was kind of funny, my Mom packed it up, sent it off, and then beat it out here, and ended up opening the packages when they got here, too! I’m really excited to get the office set up. I really groove on home organization. That will probably be more of an “after the wedding” type situation. But you never know. We may rearrange Jonathan a bit before he goes to allow us to get the stuff we need to into that room. It’s becoming quite a full house! John’s migration continues. It was a good move, starting to move things over slowly. Now I’ve got plenty of time to cater to my obsessive compulsive need for everything to have a place. All we need are some DRAWERS.
So, tonight, I think I’m going to…well, I don’t know. I feel like there is so much to do, but most of it has to do with cleaning and buying desks and sending invites and thank you cards and la la la, and what I really want to do is relax a bit. So we’ll see what happens. Something will, I’m sure.
