Visit from my Bunny

Last night, Kevin came to visit because I haven't seen him since JULY!! Holy cow, that was a long time! But we have both just been so busy, I had my 'maids up one weekend and then he has been working like a fiend, that it just worked out that way. I was so glad to see him. I hate living in different cities. I can't wait to move into the new apartment (even tho that won't be until after the wedding) and just be able to see each other every day and not have to plan out our weekends months in advance about if we'll be in Buffalo, Rochester, or Warsaw...exhausting!

So, we went out to dinner to Red Lobster. I am not a fan of shellfish but you can always get salmon which I love. Altho, I got the salmon in the bag and it said seasonal veggies, so I assumed broccoli or green beans, but it was peppers and onions - yuck! The salmon was good once I saved it from the offending veggies. Then we set off on our errands.

First stop was Home Depot. I hate the carpet in the living room of our apartment, its awful and purple-y blue and I was hoping to find a remnant of a neutral to cover most if not all of the room. No luck here, but it was ok. Next, we cruised on over to one the area hotels - we are trying to find someplace for our wedding guests to stay that is affordable and not a sh*thole, pardon my language. This is proving much easier said than done. I cannot believe how much people charge here for a hotel room - the southtowns are NOT a big tourist attraction, so you wouldn't think it would be so outrageous. We didn't go and look at a room, the guy behind the desk was taking too long but then the way to get home is to go through this skeevy part of town where they are doing a lot of contruction and I don't really want that to be the first impression of our wedding day that people get. Call me crazy, I know. Next we went to Lowes, again on the search for carpet - no luck again. Guess I will actually have to go to a carpet store. Finally we headed over to my favorite place on earth - Target!!! We saw a duvet cover to add to our registry, as well as a shelving unit to put in the bathroom. BEST of all, I found a slip cover for the couch (black) and coordinating pillows (front - cream with a black swirly design, back - black). It looks really nice and I hope it fits the couch... fingers crossed.

Tonight I am hanging out with my friend Kara. She just got a new car so she's driving haha. We are grabbing some dinner at Red Robin and then stopping at Joanns so I can pick up an aisle runner and some paint and brushes to make the handpainted aisle runner for my friend Steph's upcoming wedding (a week and a half!! ahh I'm super excited!!)

My perma-headache is back in full force. Its not debilitating or anything, just more of a dull ache. Just kind of getting on my nerves that it won't go away.

Tomorrow brings a Loooong day of work, but also the first of the OOT family comes in. I am so excited to see the little bebe (my goddaughter! :D) and hang out with my cousin Amanda. Yay for hanging out avec ma famille!

Enjoy it!
