OMG Bees! Im so excited!!! So quick backstory (I found a ring sizer in his drawers about a month or so ago) and may have gone back to look at it a “few” times. Anyway there was a lump of cash there too and its been growing in size after each payday (we live together and have joint accounts and he has been very protective of his bank accounts and statements etc – he has appeared to be out of money all the time but he earns really good money).
Anyway I am a nurse and have been working afternoon/evening shifts the last couple of weeks. So hes had tonnes of unsupervised time after work lol (Coincidence or clever rostering…..??? hehehe)
So I just went to play with the ring sizer again…….and its all gone!!!! He took me out to dinner at the local pub last night and was so lovey dovey when we got home so maybe its getting close. We are over out busy period at the moment and have no plans for the next three weekends! So maybe he is brewing something…..
Oh and last weekend when my parents were down and my mum and I went shopping Boyfriend or Best Friend came home from work and him and Dad had a good 3hours alone!
Ahhhhhh!!

Thanks everyone!!! He was very protective of his work bag this morning too – I went to put his lunch in and hes that ok Ive got it and he never does that – hes normally still half asleep and grateful for any help he gets in the mornings (hes such a big kid sometimes!)
@ChicChick: lol yes unsupervised time. We always know where each other is so I turn a blind eye when Im at work and dont ask what he did in the afternoon when we talk about our day later that night.
Fingers crossed!! Will certainly keep you all posted on any more progress!!

So we were just talking and he started talking about wedding planning (he drives me nuts some times!!!) and anyway he said that we should start thinking about the big things for the wedding (hes a project manager so he will manage it like a work thing) and said well thats the venue, caterer and your dress!!! So I said well thats all well and good but considering you want to get married in 9 months its going to be tight (it will be winter here in Australia in July/Aug) to organise it all and I said whats the likelihood of having that stuff planned and booked by Christmas and hes smiled like goof ball and said hmmmmm pretty good. And then kept talking about what I would like (cars, colours etc). Hes definiately done a little more planning behind my back than I thought! So after than conversation he said please just ease up on me a little and keep looking at all the planning stuff if it keeps you busy and then we can start booking things straight away!!!
So….looks like Ill be engaged by Christmas!!!! So excited!!!

@MrsT2b:No idea – hes done pretty well in the past (my locket and watch). This is the watch he got me for my birthday this year and I had no input (other than that I needed a new watch) so I know his taste isnt bad.
Oh and Im not exactly calm – Im on the computer (with WeddingBee hidden in a sea of tabs) showing him colours and stuff while hes playing the playstation and he just yelled at me SLOW DOWN – that talk wasnt supposed to open the flood gates! LMAO – or so he thought!
