I am honestly surprised. I have to say I thought all of this talk about the biological clock was just a made up thing to convice women that they had to have babies....but since I finally admitted, out loud that I do, eventually, want a baby (or more, who knows) there this...I dunno urgency about it. It's wierd, now I am excited to find a new place to live, get settled, get married and start.
I never thought this would be me, but it is and I feel great about that!
My aunt visited this weekend and took Matt and I out to lunch, so that was nice. And I talked to my parents about my recent decisions and realizations and they didn't act like I was an idiot or being silly, they treated me like a grown up making her own decisions. And when I told my Mom that our wedding date was set (p.s. she's never been a fan of Matt, regardless of the fact that she doesn't know him at all) she told me they had a tiny bit of money for a wedding! Something I was not expecting from a financial or a supportive standpoint. She really wants me to move to Madison, WI (which is where she is) but I really think I need a tad more distance between us!
So yeah, that's it on my front, not much to report. Matt just built a new computer and he is setting up the old one for me so I should hopefully be able to get on a bit more often...we shall see!

That is great Liz!!! It is so important to have the support from your parents! And yes, as I get older (especially now that I am married) I hear the clock ticking away. Why is that?!?!? Good job keeping up with your goal!! That is great that you have almost made it to 200 days!!

Yes Liz the biological clock thing is quite a reality!My clock is still ticking away even though i have decided not to have kids,(if that makes sense).So i am very pleased for you, that you want to settle down soon and have a baby or two etc.Wishing you all the very best with this and with the wedding as well.Love Lydia xx

I have tried to chuck that clock against the wall and shut it up a few times... it's ALL POWERFUL AND CONSUMING especially if things don't CLICK as fast you think or hope... ( I blame my craziness on that clock... come on menopause! stop the madness!)
OH dear Lizzy (big shmooshy hugs) we're growing up! I love that moment when you feel like you can talk to your parents like you're an adult.. makes you feel so independant... (until I need to be coddled cause life goes for a shit and I need to be babied for a minute... but that's what husbands then become good for LOL) Ah life... it doesn't stop no matter how hard you dig in your heals. This year is going to go CRAZY fast for you with all you got planned!
