    It's FINALLY happening this fall. He told me last night. Last week, he started the job he's been trying to get for 3 years! He's making double what he was at his other job, I am soooo happy for him. It was his last "duck in the row" he needed to be "ready". I think he needed to feel he could be a provider with a solid career before we took the plunge.

    It's just all anticipation now. He told me to send him a few ideas for rings I liked a couple of weeks ago. I sent him 7 and honestly at this point I don't care what I get! ;) Just as long as it's a ring and a commitment for the future.

    I have been so good at keeping my mouth shut and I have no worries that I will be able to continue to do that since I know it's really gonna happen!

    I am just sooooo ready to be able to talk to my family about it and make the guest list and budget, pick a venue, and just get things going. I cannot WAIT to marry him :)

    Look for my engagement post in the next couple of months, wahoo!

    @gocubbies: Uh, all I know is he better hurry up because I need someone elses life to focus on now that my W is over! Tell him I said to hurry up ;-) (Okay don't really, but afterward, you can then.) :-)

    Yeah, I know what you mean. Knowing that he's already doing the shopping, all the "waiting anxiety" just lifts off your shoulders. After that, waiting's a breeze.
