We are finally getting married! In August. We are going to Hawaii, getting married there, staying for 2 weeks, and I just can't wait.
A quick recap: we've been together for 5 years, engaged for 3. This is a 2nd marriage for both of us. I have two grown kids and he has none. We've recently (about 6 months ago) been able to put to bed a lot of relationship issues we previously struggled with. Now that those are behind us, I'm feeling really confident about getting married.
We have a rockin' sex life, and it just continues to get better. (Can't wait for the special honeymoon sex we've got cooked up).
My current update: I was laid off from my job on May 31st, but I knew it was coming and was prepared. I have several home remodeling projects still going on, so I have been very busy these past couple of weeks. However...I have also enjoyed having time to plan my wedding, work out and get a tan going (I'm one of those who will burn in the first 5 minutes, so I have to have a decent tan before I ever get there or I'll pay the price in a big way), cook for my fiance (a rare occurance before, but lately I've been spoiling him), spending extra time with kids and friends!
Strangely, I've spent LESS time on message boards!
Financially I am ok for a couple of months while I take this time off and decide what to do next...this is an exciting transition time for me...
But I am here and reading nearly every day, so I hope you all know I'm reading your updates even if I don't post.
