What is it about Saturdays that make me exhausted by 10:30 at night? Is it really just the simple fact that I have to work so early in the morning on Sunday? Seriously, I feel utterly exhausted. I'm never this tired at this time except on Saturdays and maybe on Sundays if I end up not taking a nap during the afternoon. Eh, that's was terribly worded sentence. What's crazy is that my mood is totally dependent on how sleepy I am. Perhaps I did get grumpy and irritable when I was tired during college and I just never realized it. That's not to say I never got grumpy at that time; I was just as much of a moody pain in the ass as anyone but I don't think it was related to how tired I was at any given moment.
If I put my current moodiness aside for the moment and actually reflect on my day, I can safely say that Dave and I had a really great day. Our conflicting work schedules and Dave's particularly constant schedule haven't given us the amount of time together when one of us isn't falling asleep that we would like. Again, another terrible sentence. Ah well. Recently Dave's been feeling frustrated and overwhelmed by the plethora of "things to do" at the moment with work, the wedding, and knowledge of the upcoming move that is on the back of our minds. The other day he came up to me upset and down because he felt that we were missing out on summer and because we have so much left to do, we'd never be able to enjoy it fully.
However, today it felt like the old days when we used to something special regularly. The two of us haven't really sat down and looked at our honeymoon options since we initially purchased our tickets back in March. So the two of us took the guidebooks we purchased months ago, drove to Gloucester, and sat on the grass by the ocean writing down activities that we may be able to ask friends and family to help us participate in with a honeymoon registry. Everyone seems to be asking me about the registries recently so it's become my priority number one. I want to get that done once and for all and stop thinking about it.
After spending a couple of hours by the water and under the sun, we had a solid list going and we were even more excited about Hawaii than we were originally. Of course, there are a couple of activities that will require reservations in advance so we may have to purchase a couple that we definitely want regardless of whether or not friends and family choose to pitch in. I have a bit more to research because I want to make sure that what we ask for is what we really want to do but I've made a commitment to get it up by Tuesday. Dave doesn't know that yet but that gives us tomorrow afternoon and Monday where we will be seeing Jamie and her mom, both of whom have been to and loved Hawaii. For sure, our honeymoon will be a topic of conversation this 4th of July (if Jamie and her mom are willing). Then it's just a matter of posting it to our website.
So that's that. I had more to say but I have written enough for tonight.
