So. Didn't go to Memphis with sister. And yes, I realize this was 3 weeks ago, but lay off, I've been busy. (Okay not really busy, just doing other stuff...like sleeping and such.)
As everyone hopefully knows, Nashville received record amounts of rainfall that weekend, causing a massive flood that has since become one of the most expensive natural disasters in the country's history. Even Kenny Chesney's house took on water!! GASP! NOOOO!
Anyhoo, things have finally dried out and are somewhat returning to normal. People are starting to rebuild and there is no longer a raging river across the street from our house. Thank the lord we live on a hill. A half block away was under water. :/
Excitement is currently in the air for me...as my wonderful boyfriend decided he needed to out do himself and surprise me with a plane ticket home for a long weekend...mostly to go to my BFF Amanda's baby shower for little Henry...but also to visit my family and friends. He schemed with sister and my parents and now I'm home bound on June 3rd! Wooooop! I cannot wait!
I've been doing lots of painting lately, which has been awesome for my sanity, and has helped to make our house colorful and more livable. J and I are pretty much living in our bedroom, since the rest of the frat house is a nasty pit from everyone else that we're sick of cleaning, and it's been rough trying to find our own space. But we're figuring it out. And are going to be so pumped to move into our own place in October! (Preferably on a hill, away from any type of river or creek that has flooding potential. Which I think is smart.)
We have also decided that it is our destiny to win the PowerBall (the big jackpot, of course), and we are excited to become multi-millionaires and quit our jobs. Don't worry-we will share the wealth with everyone who is deserving (including my 9 loyal blog followers..hehehe).
J's parents are coming to visit this Friday(which will be a 3 day weekend..thank you, Memorial Day!)...we have tons of activities planned for the time that they're going to be in town. Jack Daniels Museum, Tennessee Renaissance Festival (jousting!!), the Nashville Zoo, and his mom and I are going to get pedicures. Yayyyy some girl time! Then the day they leave, I fly home!
Ahhh Minnesota, how I miss thee.
