Closer and closer
The closing is looming. It's a week from Friday. We are scheduling our final walk-through for Monday, including an inspection of the gas leak repair. I am excited but nervous.
It seems like there's too much to do before the wedding. How am I going to get all this done and do my schoolwork and move?? We haven't even talked to the priest yet. He asked us to contact him after Easter. I just hope he isn't leaving the country for the Pope's funeral or anything. We need to find out how many readers and pieces of music we need and start asking people to do this for us. We already have one reader and one musician, but we will need more than that.
We are going to do the printed parts of the invitations this weekend. Then hopefully we can start constructing. I am also in the process of gathering addresses, which is more difficult than you might think (look, if you want to invite your second cousin twice removed, I'm going to need her address!!).
Anyway...I am feeling overwhelmed with everything that needs to get done in the next few weeks. Plus, several people close to us are having a rough time. D's sister was rushed to the hospital with appendicitis last Friday night (they removed it, she is fine), and also my mom totaled her car and suffered 2 broken ribs and a broken arm the same night. Yikes! Several friends in town are also needing help-one recently miscarried, and one's husband has been hospitalized for depression. I guess when it rains, it pours. We are grateful that our lives are fairly stable so that we can offer support to those who need it.
I should go get ready for class now.

How's your mom doing? That's awful!
She's okay. Her lower left arm is in a cast, and they can't really do anything for broken ribs. No stitches or surgery or anything. Luckily, the arm break is clean, so it should heal well. She is staying across the street for the time being.
Actually, her entire left arm is in a cast--I talked to her last night.
