Everyone keeps asking me if I am excited or nervous about the wedding.
Obviously, I am excited, but I'm not so sure about nervous. I know that I should be, but I guess I'm just not. Maybe it's because me and Cody have been together for such a long time that I'm just ready for us to be married. I feel like I have waited long enough!
That being said, I have begun to realize over the past few days that my life is about to drastically change! I mean, the last time I shared a room with someone was with my little sister in the 9th grade! (I finally got my own room when Brandi went to school.)
So lets see, that makes it almost 9 or 10 years of having things just how I want them in my own space, only having to clean up after my stuff, etc. Granted, I did live with my sisters in college for a few years, and we shared a bathroom. But I have a feeling that sharing a bathroom with girls is different than sharing with a boy.
I've also been free for the past 6 or 7 years to come and go as I please, not having to answer to parents or anything like that, or constantly having to tell someone where I am 24/7.
Also, as long as me and Cody have been dating, I would estimate that a good half of that time has been spent long distance while I was away at school and Cody was at home in Sherman, and vice versa.
So it's not like I am dependent on him right now for every little thing.
I'm used to doing things that I want to do, my way, and on my time. And that's all about to go out the window!
While this may be bad news to some people, I am actually more excited about it! I'm ready to start having someone to depend on, and someone to spend a lot of time with every day when I go home from work.
I say, it's ABOUT TIME. :D
(4 days to go!!)
I know what you mean! Cal and I spent most of the time at a distance from each other and I did it all alone. Marriage is such an amazing thing, but it's also a sanctifying thing. Nothing will show you more of your own selfishness and sin than being married. It's so hard! But it's so worth it! Enjoy the time you have leading up to the wedding and really cherish moments. I tried to take pictures of the important things throughout the day. "This is me putting on my shoes to get married" and I took a mental picture of my shoes. The time flies by, but taking these pictures really helps to savor that time and those moments.
