Time for some rest

Now that the big things are out of the way for the wedding, I am going to take a little rest. In my excitement, I wanted to start thinking about a lot of things, but now that those big things, like the date and finding a reception place, are tackled I think I can take a step back again.

Tonight we met up with Father Mike for the second time. We went over our 'test results' and found that we did agree on a lot of things. There are some areas that we will need to discuss once it gets closer to merging our lives together, but overall I am really pleased with how we both answered. I am sure that some people think things like this are dumb but it opens up conversation, and that's the whole point.

We also received the little booklet used for choosing your readings at mass. Mom had leant me her own copy from when they got married, but my new copy is a bit nicer with some updated photos (none of those 80s haircuts like her book, haha!) I must say, I am kind of excited to pick these out, though. Before my retreat, I don't know that it would have been a huge deal to me but... I don't know how to explain it, I'm just looking forward to choosing them.

In other news... my appetite is up lately. I don't know why, but it spikes from time to time. It's a good thing and I am trying to take advantage of it. I've been on a pizza binge and I ate about five pieces of pizza yesterday and I had three more today, so hopefully it'll help me gain a pound or something. Yeah, that'd be nice!
