New Furniture

Patrick and I are the proud new owners of a beautiful couch and loveseat as well as a new breakfast nook table and chairs. We went to a place (only found in the Midwest) called Value City Furniture and for everything we spent $1200.00. It may sound strange that we purchased our new furniture here in Michigan when we are leaving at the end of May to return to New Mexico, but after pricing the available furniture stores in Albuquerque, we decided that we would save money by buying it here and transporting it with us when we leave. We are looking at storing the furniture in Albuquerque until we move into our home around the end of August.
We are so excited about this, not only because it is not dorm or fraternity house furniture, but because we are buying it together, it will actually be "ours". Not his or mine, but something we will share. A little scary, but very exciting none the less.
Speaking of exciting, Julie and Andrew have finally set a wedding date. October 14th! I have been keeping an eye on airfare to make sure that I have enough time to get there and back without really biting into my budget. Fortunately, it is during Fall Break so I don't have to miss any class. Which is going pretty well thus far. I made a 99 on my last microbiology test, which is better than the 96 I got on the test before. I'm ready for the semester to be done though. I 'm going to try to take A&P I and II this summer, which will be very draining, but will be worth it if I can be done in time to apply for nursing school in the spring.
The weather is getting nicer here in Ann Arbor. It is about 55 today and sunny, which is a dramatic change from last week when it was snowing again. I keep telling Adam that I don't believe him that this is spring, I'm waiting for it to snow again later this week. I'm so tired of this place. But...we are almost home. Almost.
