If I came with a warning label, what would it be?

(If you want to play along, post this in your own journal.)

As you should know by now,  I am getting married on August 22. We are having a couple of events on that weekend. The Sunday is the open house which you are all most than welcome to come to, but we have our official reception for family on the 22nd. But we need some help with the setup.

My dad has decided that instead of us doing all the setup on Friday evening, that he wants me to hire some people to do it.

Two people:
What it would involve:
Moving the tables and chairs from where they are dropped off at the house
Setting up 8 tables/80 chairs (as per my diagrams)
Putting up some decorations
Taking down the tables/chairs
Possibly a few other things

SO, it would involve some time before the garden party and after the garden party. IT would mean being there early afternoon to setup and being there a while at the end (probably about 10 or so) to take down and clean up.

Other person:
We also would like someone to kind of act as a behind-the-scene hostess.
What it would involve:
Making the punch, and keeping the punch pitchers filled
Clearing away bottles/cups and such.
Rinsing plates, cups to be sent back to the rental place
Other tasks as needed

This would require your assistance all through the afternoon/evening - but would probably not be extremely busy at most times.


The other details!

You would be paid for this - not an extreme amount, but we'd be fair. :)

Let me know if any of you (and partners) would be willing to help us out. It would mean alot to me.

Marijke (and Rob)

I totally forgot to send this off when I did the whole Facebook one.. bad Marijke.
OKay, so, it's my birthday on Sunday, but instead of celebrating it then, I am celebrating on Saturday.
The plan is to eat at Moxie's and then to go see Transformers at North Edmonton Cineplex.
We don't have a time decided on yet, but will tomorrow.

Are you interested in coming? Let me know.
It would be nice to see a bunch of friends.

Marijke

Edit: Supper at Moxies at 5:30 and Transformers at 7:40.
July 11.

Ewi-icky-ka-blah - Meaning yucky things.
Neuf-i-da-ha - Meaning awesome things..

And for some weird reason..

Okay, so I finally stopped procrastinating and got started on our wedding website.
It still has a ways to go, but it's getting there..
Come, visit, sign the guestbook, etc.

Yes, you.. all of you! :)

So, the wedding is now 7 months and 19 days away.
Planning is going well. We should have the honeymoon mostly booked by the end of the weekend.
Working on the Edmonton stuff now. Still figuring out location and such, as well as Pre-wedding parties.
Our wedding ceremony is very small, with just our immediate families - parents and siblings and their families as well as officiant and photographer. Then we are having a garden party reception for our family and close friends - probably only about 75 people.
So, you may be asking, "What about the rest of your friends? Have you forgotten about us?" No! That's what the Pre-Wedding Party is for!
We are looking at locations for this as well - We think probably either at Kinsmen in Edmonton or at Millenium Place in Sherwood Park. We would rent an event room to have as our "base" and then spread out from there. Swimming, racquetball, etc. would be available. Or you could just sit and chat. (Details to be worked out still)
We also are figuring that the evening of our wedding (Aug 22) we would just have an open invite to come and say hi. (After about 7 or so, when all the family has left) But this still needs to be worked out.

Anyways, this is where things are right now.
Oh ya, if you want an invite to things, make sure I have your address.

Okay, just the short form.. as usual.. ask questions if you have em..

1. Got a job and quit it
2. Got another job and quit before even training
3. Turned down another job offer as it wasn't perfect.
4. Accepted a job as it's pretty close to perfect.. Challenging, yet rewarding.
5. Still blissfully happy and wedding planning :) .

Thanks everyone for the well-wishes. We are very happy, and just starting the planning.
We don't have a date set yet, nor have we decided on the location. We should have it figured out by about September...

I was wanting to wait until we had told family members, but I did promise I would post today.

Rob proposed to me on Monday, and I accepted.
We're gettin' married!
We haven't set a date yet, but it's most likely to happen next spring/summer.
And we are blissfully happy.

Okay, things are still going well, but I thought I would do an update post...
Apartment: Still a disaster area and the spare bedroom is full of boxes. But I have plans on getting that straightened out before the end of the month.
Relationship: Going wonderfully. It is our 2 year anniversary on the 5th, and looking forward to a nice day with Rob.
Job Search: Hopefully it's done for a bit. I had an interview today at a call center, and got a conditional offer. They just need to check my security clearance and references, etc. And we'll see. It's not that high paying, but it's better than nothing. At least then I can stop worrying so much about paying bills.

My last post I mentioned about the possibility of some good news coming up. I'm not ready to say much more, but needless to say, there could be some very good news here in the next 6 months or so.

Well, my paid account ends at the end of the month. I was going to renew it, but seeing as I just got fired yesterday, I don't think I'll be doing that.

Okay, it's been a little since I've updated people. Things are definitely on an upward curve in many areas of my life.
First, I'd like to thank all of those who passed on thoughts of kindness during my latest crisis. I'm hoping it's the last one for a while. (Knock on Wood). I can't handle another one in the near future.
Next, I hope that if ever any of you are in crisis mode that I can possibly repay the favour. I can't help with much other than good thoughts, but I will do that at the very least.

Okay, enough of that "feel-good" stuff and on to the update. Please bear with me, and read to the end.
