and if you don't get it - well, the sitting around the house thing is quite nice after the months and months of stress and hassle

hahaha, you say that 1 day into it.

yes I do

I'm such a homebody though; I'll be surprised if I get tired of it soon (though obviously I don't want to do this indefinitely)

huzzah!!

I love that word! It always makes me think of my sophmore year highschool English teacher!! He was a very funny guy!

I love that word too! and I was, at one time, a high school English teacher... perhaps we just like those sort of words, as a breed

...I am now happy about the other house since I really like this house so much more...

THERE'S the key... there'll always be something good

glad you found something else so quickly... hope it all works out perfectly

You're just jealous

I think I will be ok for a little bit but will start going slowly crazy after a while... not just that but it'll be hard getting back into work-mode after so much time off

Positive news - Griff got his EAD approved! No word yet on the AP.

Kewlies! Hopefully AP will come soon!!! Will have to go update the spreadsheet at some point ><

yessssssss i am soooo excited, but yet there is sooo much left to do!!! looks like the reception is shaping up to be about 70 people or so...not as bad as i had anticipated, but still more people than i would like...looks like i wont have to buy nearly anything for our new apartment, because the registry is emptying out pretty quickly...not that im checking it everyday or anything

im going to have a spa day this saturday with four of my close friends and my cousin...i cant wait!!

Ohhh sounds wonderful Susie!! I am sooo jealous! We were looking at spas in Palm Springs and they are sooo expensive that I can't see it being on the cards for a while... maybe I will just talk Jeremy into learning all the techniques

And still only one thing bought from our registry But then the reception isn't until the end of next month and we *did* say we weren't expecting anything and that it was just a formality Silly me!

[Jeraly 4]

OOOhh! I just had to check and my aunt has bought us an electric kettle!!! w00t!!! I am sooo happy - we were boiling water in a pan on the stove last time I was there because we couldn't find a kettle anywhere!! YAY!!

caught red-handed.

Though I shouldn't be, actually, b/c after Friday I'm going to have at least a month or so off.

Aaaahhhhh!!! I leave for Montreal in 3 days!!

*note to self*

*register for kettle when time comes to register for things*

I don't have one either.

[Jeraly 4]

I know - I couldn't believe that they were so hard to come by - at least where we were - I was totally made up when I found them on Amazon.com!! Am doing well so far!! Am happy with both pressies Yippee!! Glad I checked now

[Jeraly 4]

We got the apartment!! WOOHOO!!!!!

Ok - so it's not the Ritz but I am soooo happy we finally have something!! Yippee!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!

One less thing for you to worry about now. Although I'm sure you'll soon find something else to replace it.

[Jeraly 4]

Yeah - it is a HUGE weight off my mind!! Now we just need to find out if we need to change Jeremy's flight and then all the big stuff is kinda sorted - it's just practical things then like selling stuff and bits and bobs like that... But we have somewhere to live!! Woohoo!!

I'm gonna be living in Palm Springs!! Now where is that Brits in the USA thread!?

[rae_and_scott 1]

Aly that is such great news!! It's good not to be homeless and stuff.

[Jeraly 4]

LMAO! Yeah - I'd say Rae!!!!

We have a spangly new phone number as well now

[StillThePrettiest 3]

Dave has got us a Skype phone, and for an extra $2 per month he's registered a local number in each of London and Sydney... people can call us on their normal house phone (or mobile, whatever) and it costs them the price of a local call, but they talk to us in Texas

I still can't get over the wonderment
