That's great Tess! Maybe you'll be flashing your ring sooner than you think!  The last time I went to the library, I saw this book "The Groom's Survival Manual", and I picked it up for Chris, because it looked kinda funny. It states, "A pleasing feminine quirk is the way that a woman will walk around with her left hand extended for weeks after receiving an engagemetn ring, greeting old friends and strangers by waving her new bauble in their faces." 
Seriously though - isn't it weird how you can date someone forever and it doesn't work out. But then, you meet someone else and you know right away. I knew Chris was "the one" almost immediately. We moved in together after dating about 7 months or so - and I NEVER thought I would have done that with anyone. I don't know why, maybe I'm a little old-fashioned or something, but I never wanted to move in with a guy until I was married.
Oh well anyway...sorry, just started rambling there! Hope everything works out for you and your guy. He seems like a great guy from what you say - always looking out for you (throwing the sprite away, stocking up on food for ya).

Glad to hear your moving experience was a pretty normal one aside from your jewelery scare. Glad to hear you never had a crime scene on your hands LOL
I understand about the tummy turmoil and am glad to hear you are getting settled which will settle your tummy too.
Take care and have fun unpacking,

You all are too funny. I was pretty excited about my engagement ring too, but my most fun was when I ran into my terrible ex boyfriend one day and simply had to show off the ring by scratching my nose, eye, chin etc. LOL

When you know, you know. My SIL started dating a guy in April and they are planning the wedding now. He asked her to marry him a couple weeks ago and the wedding is Nov. 1. He is a great guy and is adding to our family with two children. His kids are great. We are all in the wedding. The girls are ecstatic about being flower girls.

Thanks everyone!!!!!!!!! I love you guys!!!!
So I start work today *yikes*! I babysit from 8-10 am, I shadow (or assist) a girl from 2-4 (she is special needs and needs an aid in the classroom), from 4-5 I babysit for another family, and them from 5-6.
Michelle, I would LOVE to babysit for your kids--they're ADORABLE!!! :-)
I still love my engagement ring! I'm SO GLAD I still have it!
Kerrie, no special credentials needed to shadow or assist in private schools...not sure about public school systems.
Amelia, how is working with babies going for ya? A couple of the families I babysit for have babies...a new experience for me! I'm excited!
I missed all of you and I hope to be back on board as much as possible as soon as possible!
Love,
Ruchie
