**Im not in the mood to blog, more later probably***

New look

so if anyone reads my blog, you can tell I like change and I change my background a lot! So here is to a new one! :)

I have the best Fiance EVER!!!

My sweet man served me french toast in bed this morning!!! He is such a sweetie. He has been doing chores for this guy so he has been getting up at like 6am to get them done before he has to do his own. So needless to say I havent been able to wake up with him in a LONG time. I thought it was such a sweet gesture!! :)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Its my older sisters 28th birthday today!! Happy birthday Jess!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On another note, I got pulled over last night!! I was going about 67 in a 55! Which is about normal speed for me to drive. And there are many times I see cops on the HWY and they just pass by me. I guess it was my time to get pulled over! As soon as I seen him I knew I was going to get pulled over. He threw his lights on right away and I just said "shit" to myself. Oh well. He comes up to my window and the conversation went a little like this..

officer: "hi there ma'am, I am Officer Wright from the State Patrol, and I saw that you were going a little fast back there, do you know how fast you were going?

me: "I think I was going around 65"

officer: " Do you know the speed limit?"

me: "I think it is 55?" -I knew it was 55, I have only been driving this road everyday for the past 3 years.

officer: "your right. Do you have your license? how about your insurance on the car?"

I got all the information out for him

officer: "how is your driving record?"

me: "Its clean"

officer: "ok, I will be right back"

me: "ok, thanks!" Why the heck did I say thanks?? dumb me! haha

I probably sat in the car for a good 10 minutes. I thought for sure I was going to get a ticket. But I sat there very patiently.

I was actually really surprise how many people dont pull around the cop car. They flew by without giving the cop car a little space. I thought that was really sad.

He gets out of his car, and he puts his hat on, and I see this sheet he is holding! I was thought to myself, oh shit, I did get a ticket!

officer: "Your record looks clean, I am going to just give you a warning. I want you to slow down. That is how people get hurt. They think it is not going to happen to them but it does! Just slow down!"

me: "I am sorry officer"

officer: "Just slow down! Have a good day Ma'am"

WOW! I was surprised I didnt get a ticket, but I am very thankful I didnt! Like I could afford a ticket right now! Good thing the cop didnt know I have been pulled over 5 times before he did and never got a ticket, just warnings!

1st time getting pulled over: I was 16, probably 3 weeks after I got my license. The cop got my going 70 in a 55.

2nd time: I was in sophomore high school, and I was late for a chiropractic appt. I was going 40 in a 30.

3rd time: I was a senior in high school, and I got pulled over because my tabs were expired. I told the cop that my mom was getting them that day. Soon as I was released from the cop I went into town and got my tabs.

4th: I was a senior in high school and the cop pulled me over because he thought i was drinking. I was hoping he would give me a breathalyzer just so I would know how it was because I was not drinking that night.

5th: David and I were coming home from my parents home (we were driving separately) and the cop got him at 65 in a 55, and David proceeded speed away and get on a gravel road. So he pulled me over instead. He ran my license and everything and came back and asked me if I was with the gray truck in front of me, I said yes and he said he was meaning to pull him over instead.

and then this time makes 6 time!!!! My dad, and god must me looking over me!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I bought more flowers yesterday and I also bought a daisy paper puncher. I am going to try to put a mock program together this weekend. I will take picture of the mock invite and mock program then.

I also finally returned all of the groomsmens clothes that didnt work. The girl at sears was an ass about it. But I was able to return everything. I came home and was going to order everything off the net again, and tuesday when I checked the shirts they had all of the sizes I needed. And when I went to order them last night, they didnt have the right sizes!!! ARGH!!! Seriously, whos good idea was this anyways???

Slightl Panic Attack

So I just have to add, I was looking at my blog and I just saw the ticker and it says 4 months, 4 weeks and 1 day till the big day!! HOLY CRAP! I know it is really 5 months, but just seeing that 4 months gave me a slight panic attack!

Feeling Really Crappy

I think I am coming down with this flu crud. :( I really hope I am not to sick for this weekend.

Friday- My mother in law has asked me to go out to eat with her and her sister and her daughter in law. Davids other sister-in-laws are also invited. I thought it was a VERY nice to gester (sp?) to do that. So I am pretty excited about that.

Then we have our 3rd session for our pre-marriage counseling. It is actually going pretty good. We are learning a lot about each other and how compatable we really are. We really only have 1 subject that needs "growth" and that is conflict resolution. And we are slowly working on that.

Saturday- Its valentines day, how wants to be sick on v-day? David and are are playing it low that day. We are going to fondue. I am SOOO excited to do it. We are going to do cheese, chocolate, and deep fry meat. I think it should be really fun. Maybe eat dinner in the candle light?

David has asked for cupcakes for Valentines day, so I need to bake them sometime. I got ones that actually have little hearts in them, I got them from target. and pink frosting with little heart sprinkles. I also got him a really cool John Deere Sweatshirt. Well I really like it and I got a steal on it! It was orginally $60 and I got it for $25. How sweet is that!

David is doing chorse for a guy while he is on vacation, but when that guy comes back we are going to head up to a casino in Red Wing and spend the night at the hotel and do some gambling. (he wanted to do this for valentines day, but we just cant get away since he is doing the chorse)

Sunday- We will probably just go to church, and hang low at home and make a good homemade meal.

Monday & Tuesday- I have off of school, which is so nice. I have 2 projects that I should probably get done since they are due that week. I also need to study for my board exam also. So many things to do so little time.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On another note I made up a "mock" invite. and we LOVE it, I should really take a picture so you all can see it. If I do have any people that read this poor pathetic blog.

STRESSED OUT!!!

Today was student success day at school, so you think we didnt have to go to school, nope we did. We went over clincial board information. I am SOOO nervous for it. When we were talking about it today in class my stomach was just burning, and feeling like I was going to throw up! I just really hope I find a good patient that is going to sit there for like 5 hours!!! man oh man.

I am not off to make some "mock" invites and programs! i am excited to see how they turned out! :)

Nifty Idea

So we went to a fundraiser the other night and they were selling jello shots for $1. What a good idea! So my mom had an idea that we should sell jello shots & virgin jello shots at the wedding for honeymoon money. She is going to figure out how much it would be to actually make them and how much money we could make off of each one. :)
