24 Days!

24 days away! I remember when it was 6 months away thinking it would never come but now it's just around the corner! I'm way excited but also way stressed out. There's just so much to do and not that much time or money to do it. So far this is all I have to do for the wedding:
-Decorate Ashlee's basket
-Buy a ring bearer pillow for Mason
-Buy a hair piece
-Buy gifts for my bridal party
-Book hotel room for Shaun and I
-Figure out if we can afford honeymoon and where we are going
-Get dress altered
-Make sure my bridesmaids have dresses
And I think that's it! There's also much to do that doesn't relate to the wedding but it needs to be done. We need a place to live! Shaun and I have been looking to rent a house with Katharine, we all need places to live and it will be cheaper than getting just a one bedroom apartment for Shaun and I, no joke. If you want a nice apartment you better be expecting to pay over 800, just for a stinkin' one bedroom! So I'm hoping we can have something set in stone before the end of the month so I can get that off my mind.
Other than that, the job I'm in right now just isn't working out. I'm not making as much money as I was hoping to make and the money I do make soooo isn't worth all the work I put into these transcripts. I'm guessing 75% of the tapes I receive are muffled, staticy, or just plain bad. So I have to invest a lot more time in them if I want to do a good job and I'm getting paid barely anything for it too. If I wanted to make enough money to support ourselves, all I would be doing is nonstop work 24/7. I'm just not fast enough at this I guess. So I think I'm going to have to go back to the grind and find a 9 to 5 job that's low stress enough but pays a lot more than this less than minimum wage joke I'm getting paid right now! Problem is I can't do that until after we get married because they probably won't give me the time off that I need for the wedding. So that means we're going to be strapped for a month or two but hopefully I'll find something that I can live with and bring in enough for us.
Alright, back to work. Adios!
