Today is our 2 year Anniversary of when we First Met August 9th is our 2 year Anniversary of Our Engagement And today we've also been Married a whole month. Clayton is taking me out for dinner tonight in a nice posh Italian Restaurant called "The Olive Garden" I'm really looking forward to it. I'm gonna get all dressed up :)

Not a lot has been happening here, been making loads of posters for Clayton and his Real Estate. My Welsh Cawl turned out really well, in my new Crock Pot, I was very pleased. Last night we went to have dinner with Clayton's parents, a friend of the family was coming round from Chicago. So his mom invited us, it was nice. Clayton's dad made lovely Smoked Salmon on the BBQ. I spend the whole evening picking Plums off their Plum tree, they are really nice we took some home.

Called my friend Catherine the other day, she's in Florida at the moment. She's working at the Walt Disney world Resort, it was an exchange program she went on. She goes back to the UK in like 2wks, and she doesn't want to go back home. Hehe I can see her moving to the US also.

I spend yesterday re arranging the funiture in our bedroom, not sure if I mentioned this in my previous posts but.. Clayton's dad and Uncle have been making me a Wardrobe/Closet as our cottage doesn't seem to have a built in Closet. It's nearly finished and I can't wait to see it. So I was making room in the Bedroom for it, it's meant to be quite big so I hope it can fit in the Bedroom.

That's about it here, hope everyone has a good weekend. Oh before I forget, to answer your Question Joy we don't have BBC America. We're hoping to get it soon, when we can afford the rest of the cable. But seeming we are so close the Canadian border, we get CBC which has many of my UK soaps and shows like... Emmerdale Farm, Coronation Street, Thin Blue Line, Keeping Up Apperances & As Time Goes By. So I have a wide variety of good UK shows.

Clayton's been working a lot the last few days, he worked all over the weekend. Plus he's put a lot of time in with the Real Estate, he got his first client signing. Which means he should have a house sold before Christmas if things go well, so fingers crossed. I've spend the last few day's on my own in the house 9-5 it's been quiet, and I must admit I have felt a bit lonely. Coming from a family home of 3 sisters and my mum & dad, there has always been someone in the house. Being in a different country and an isolated area has been quite a challenge to get used too. I talked to my big sister & mother the other day, and they both said for me to get into something in the area, just to get out of the house. I think I might start going to Weight Watchers again. I liked going to a diet class back in the UK, I made a lot of friends. And it helped me lose a lot of weight. I lost about 160lbs overall, I would like to get down to the size I was when I first met Clayton in August 2002. I have clothes from that summer that don't fit me anymore, and I hate that. So I'm thinking I might join next week.

Today has been an okay day, we spend the whole day sorting the car out yet again. We had a huge crack in the windshield, from a rock that hit us the other day, so we had to replace that. It took 3hrs to repair, so we walked a mile to a restaurant and had breakfast, then walked back to collect it. That cost another $200, then Clayton noticed the car shimming a lot so we took it to a tire place. And yep you guessed it, we had to replace the back tires as they were run down so much, costing $150. I'm so fed up of cars right now, it's not even funny.

Our Wedding photos are so lovely, I love every shot. I like the Black & White ones of Clayton and I. They all look so romantic, I didn't get a photo CD, so I'm gonna spend most of the day tomorrow scanning them and adding them to my MSN Group. I can't believe we've nearly been married a whole month gosh it's gone by so quick, it only feels like yesterday.

Tomorrow I'm going to be trying out our new Crock Pot We had it as a Wedding gift, and I haven't used it yet. I'm going to make my Welsh Cawl I hope it turns out alright, Clayton's all looking forward to having it after work.

Anyway's that's it from me, I'm gonna have a nice relaxing evening in front of the TV.
