Ah, Thursday It is. Only 4 more days of work at *TV Station*, but I doubt I will actually work 4 full days, being as I have a ton of vacation left to use.. So more like 1 full day left, 3 partial days, so yah!!..A few bumps in the “wedding” road, but nothing major. We will know our forwarding address on August 19th.. I plan to stick those in with the thank-you's from the wedding.. Otherwise, I will just mail them...The Mail is coming.. so I will put more out here later this week.. Just think, I'm married already, and on Friday I am having a bachelorette party... Saturday is World's of Fun.. Sunday is Clean the house/do laundry Day.. Monday, I meet with the photographer, Tuesday is my “going away party at work” and Wednesday is my last day of work.. Whoo hoo!! All of my family comes in on Thursday for the wedding.. Everything is so exciting!!!!!

Today is Sunday. We have been officially married for a little over 48 hours now... Funny, neither one of us feels any different, but for some reason we feel like we should. Our relationship hasn't really changed as far as the way we treat each other, so that is all good.
This weekend we had planned on going to Worlds of Fun in Kansas City, but we didn't get to go, being as the high for the past 2 days was 103, with a heat index of 110 degrees. G hasn't been feeling well, so we didn't want to drag her along in the heat. We are going to go next Saturday.
On Thursday, I guess I am going to have a bachelorette party!! I am really excited. I know, I know, I am a married woman now, but Not the Momma said it was okay, and I told him he was allowed to have a bachelor party… because, after all, we hadn't really planned on being married for another two weeks.
We each only have a little more than a full work week left. I probably won't actually do a whole lot of “working” the last week, because I have to reload my machine, and because it is the week before the wedding... So I won't actually be at work a whole lot...But yah.. I should probably get to bed now...
People, how lame was that?

The day before we got married. For Real. We had planned to get married 8/3/2002, and didn't know that we were going to spend this week in our lives frantically figuring out how NOT to make people angry that they had flown in for a wedding and to witness us be 'married' when we were already. We decided not to keep it a secret, but not to tell anyone. Does that make sense? Also -- I switched URLs at this point. I went from Mary's Page, to Mary & Not the Momma's page. I can't find a lot of the stuff from Mary's Page. Wish I could. That stuff would be J.U.I.C.Y!
Today is Thursday, we are only two weeks and two days until our wedding. I decided to make this page to keep our families and friends updated as to what is going on. In a month and a day, the movers will be tearing through our apartment, and packing our stuff for the long trip to Rhode Island. On September 3, we will be living there. We ran into some trouble getting into a place to live in Rhode Island, so we will actually be getting married tomorrow. This way, we can get into Navy Housing. It was a hard decision, but it will be better if Not the Momma doesn't have to drive 40 minutes both ways during rush hour traffic, across a toll bridge every day. We also will be able to use our own furniture, which is nice. I am not really hip on furnished apartments. They kind of scare me. But anyway, Today is Day one of this page, and no one will even know about it until next week, when I have a fowarding address. Have a good day!!¶

Someone said that my page was like a freakin' ghost town. Wanna know why?? BECAUSE IT IS!!!! No one has signed my guestbook for ages. I know that is sorta my fault because I was bad about updating my pages, but hopefully things will start picking up again. It is T-15 working days left for me at *TV Station, not to be named*. (Maybe 16, depends on if I take Friday off or not. I might.) The biggest news though, is that today is only 23 days until I get married, and become a DUM DUM DUM.... Mrs. Not the Momma... I know.. Scary huh?? Well, everything is coming together with that. I have almost everything taken care of... A few minor things to do...I am getting very excited. The weekend after Not the Momma and I get married, we will go to COLORADO!! My favorite state (so far). The weekend after that, Not the Momma (at least he should) will Graduate from the University of Nebraska, and is Commissioned into the US Navy. Two days later the movers come to remove most of our stuff from the apartment. Then we will clean the apartment, and I don't know what we will do for our last few days in Nebraska. After that, we head to Newport, Rhode Island, followed six months later, by our last move for a while, at least (hopefully) to Norfolk Virginia. I am getting excited, but at the same time, a little scared. I will miss my family, but am looking forward to all of the great things that are coming my way. When we get to Virginia, I will be able to finish my degree!!! I finished the rehearsal dinner invitations last night. I am sooo looking forward to August. It is going to be the best month of my life.

You can tell I am very excited to be married to Not the Momma. Heck, I am still excited to be married to him. He is still a sweetheart, but life gets in the way of romance more often now than it did back then.
We are only a little more than a month from the wedding and things are coming TOGETHER!!! My flowers are almost done...I am so excited to spend the rest of my life with Not the Momma.. He is such a sweetheart, but yah.. that is awfully mushy for a website. This week is going to be crazy, I have a shower, and I am trying to get everything squared away at work, because I only have a little more than a month left here as well (26 working days left). NO.. I am NOT counting down.. What are you thinking???
In Other News:
This is OUR NEW CAR!! (2002 Grey Ford Escape, picture removed) Not the Momma bought it on Saturday. It is so neat to have a new car.. I almost have trouble driving it, because I don't want to wreck it. It is actually a darker color gray than the one in the pic, (almost the same color as the bumper). But, I should get back to work now, so I will have to update everything later!!!
HA! I said I had to get back to 'work.' In 2002 I didn't know the meaning of "work." Well, I did, but I wasn't actively participating in it. That was when I worked at a University Telvision Station. Don't get me wrong, my job was stressful, because I had to deal with angry people with broken computers. But, getting to work at 7am, and sitting there while playing on the internets, managing a very small database, and answering the phones? For what I was getting paid? Wish I could have that job now!

Only a little over a month to go until we got married when I wrote this post. I didn't know it, but 8/3 was not to be our wedding day. We still had a wedding, but we were married on 7/19. Housing Issues. The months of May, June and July that year were a flurry of wedding preparations. I only had about three months to plan. I am lucky I went to a small church, and my parents had the real estate (IE, a barn in their backyard) for the reception. Now on to the real entry:
Okay. So I have been horrible.. It has been over 2 months since I have written last. I DO have a good excuse though!! I have been busy planning a WEDDING!! That's right everyone!! Not the Momma proposed at the end of April, and our Wedding is planned for August 3, 2002. Everything is in order now. We have the church set, the reception site is planned, a caterer lined up, pretty much all we need to do is silly stuff that you don't even think about until you are half way through the planning of the wedding. We are ALMOST DONE though, and that is a relief!
We are going to Estes Park, CO for our honeymoon, and WOW will that be fun. (That is, as long as the entire western side of Colorado hasn't burnt to a crisp). My grandfather is even possibly coming, which is crazy because I haven't seen him since I was 5 years old. G is also back in town, which is totally awesome. I will write more as to what has happened later, but now I should probably get back to work!!

This post is important in that I now do believe that the doctor was right. We did have some trouble conceiving Little Monster. I am hoping that the next time we try to conceive we don't have the same troubles.

I had actually believed that Spring had sprung here in Nebraska, but NO. Spring must have decided to go on break, because Winter came back.. Oh well, the nice weather is due to return tomorrow... Can you believe it? It was SOO nice in Virginia.. All warm-ish, and here in Nebraska it was all of 30 degrees... I sure wish I had some of my own pictures from that trip, but I don't. I did, however, manage to hijack some pictures that I think are neat.
MORE SPRING BREAK NEWS
This is the Chesapeake Bay Bridge/Tunnel. (picture removed) Not the Momma and I drove across it. It is a toll, and WOW is it a toll. 10 bucks to get across and back.. (or 20 if you are like Not the Momma, and don't turn around before you pass the toll, and have to pay twice). It was really neat. The bridge is between 20 and 30 miles long, and you can see the end of the earth when you are on it. On our way back, we even got to watch a ship that was in the USS Theodore Roosevelt Battle Group head back towards the Norfolk Naval Base. I think we decided it was an LHA. Don't worry, that is a type of ship, I don't know what that stands for, but I can tell you that LSD is Landing Ship Docking.. Whoo hoo!! I think the ship was the USS Nassau. (If that isn't how you spell it, I am very sorry.)
This is the Norfolk Harbor.(picture removed) We saw that, really we did. We also visited the USS Wisconsin, which is currently out of commission, but I can now say that I have been on a Navy Ship! Whoo hoo!! Some day I am sure I will be making my Mom, Dad, and perhaps a sister or two tour the thing as well. The audio tour is neat. although, when it is raining, you don't get to see the whole thing, unless you are from Mexico, and you have an Admiral taking you on the tour. Then, you get to see EVERYTHING!! Yah. That means, there were some sailors from Mexico visiting the ship at the same time. I am not sure, but I think the Mexican ship was still using sails. Sure tells you about how privileged we are in the Good ol’ US of A.
In other news:
After fighting with my doctor about how I don't really fit the profile, she swears that I have PCOS. I guess the hormones say it all. It is a fun syndrome, that has the following symptoms:
I tried to tell her that I have none of these things, but i guess that doesn't matter. It is a pretty crappy thing, but at least I don't have any of the symptoms. Other than that, things are going pretty well.
