Warning: This may be boring...

So I have no idea what to blog about other than the daily activities that occur in my life, hence the reason for the warning of preemptive boredom.

So I have been working at Spanky's again, 40 hours weeks, getting paid to stock the store with clothes and ring up sales. I like my job, mostly because of the women I work with. They give me my daily dose of the need for female companionship. I work the closing shift, 1-8pm which stinks at times because I miss out on games, and making dinner, but it is a job that will pay the bills. I get to either walk or ride a bike to work. I enjoy it because it is the daily exercise that I need.

Mike just started working at Borders! He has about 40 hours there this week, and we are hoping that it will stay that way. He is also working for Ben Gassaway, doing odd jobs that he needs done. Pretty much Mike is a working man and I am so proud of him and everything that he has been doing to provide for our life together. I honestly couldn't be a luckier girl.

One thing that I have been doing is wedding planning. As of today it is 46 days until the BIG day, which feels forever away, but still feels like it is coming fast. It is a weird feeling. I can hardly wait to be sealed to Mike and for us to really belong to each other. There is a lot of stress that comes with wedding planning and the closer we get the more I am realizing that I really don't care about a lot of the details anymore. What really matters to me is just to be able to finally be married to Mike!

I am battling a cold that was given to me by Mike. It is terrible and I hate being sick, especially because I feel like there is always something wrong with me lately. I am trying my hardest to be happy and not be sick but that can be difficult sometimes.

Mike and I went on a date last weekend to the Portland temple and just sat outside and talked and walked around. We went to Deseret Book afterward. I loved being there with him and feeling the spirit after a hectic week of work. It was so calming for me to be there. One of the things that I am the most excited for about getting married is receiving my endowment. I am very excited to be able to make those covenants, and to feel the spirit that resides in the temple. I am excited to share this experience with Mike. I really feel that it will bring us so much closer than we already are. I am excited to kneel across the altar and be sealed to him for eternity. There is not anything out there that can really signify love more than the covenants we will make together. There are many things that I want in life but there is nothing more important to me than being sealed to Mike and creating our own family together.

Anyway, that is my life lately. I need to take pictures more often mostly because I am sure that It will make this so much more interesting. But I am progressing.
