Thank you everyone!

We''ve been floating about in happy happy mode all week. (sorry I vanished alittle) I''m still bouncing whenever it crosses my mind and making chortling noises.

And he''ll look over at me and say "We''re getting Married!!" and sweep me into a huge hug just totally randomly. In fact one of the best things about this is how excited he is! When his new health insurance card came he showed it to me and said that in 9 months I''ll have one just like it. And he also keeps picking up my hand, kissing it, and then showing me the ring and asking "what''s that?". Heh heh heh.

Oh, and his family has been sending him congratulations cards! Of course they all ask when''s the wedding!
I told him we had to figure that part out even if he doesn''t want to launch right into planning mode. I''m not totally into planning mode either simply because I just can''t concentrate. Fortunately we only have three possible dates to choose from so he picked March 10-11. Which has the benefit of being a good time for a honey moon since I hate march here with a passion.
We''ve also started planning big changes in our lives. We''re going to buy mountain bikes and be far more active. I''ll also bike to the market and other errands. Internet is banned on the weekends until after dinner. I joined weight watchers (aaahhh! wedding dress and photos aaahhhh!). We also bought a nice grill and had our first small people over thingy for the world cup finale. I was shocked that the dog was absolutely fine with the people ... probably because it just meant more chances for dropped food.
I still have trouble taking my eyes off of the ring! He did good!!!

The proposal sounds wonderful, and the ring is beautiful. The big, sweeping, random hugs by him is so sweet! What a special time for you!
Congratulations again!
