Yesterday was my friend’s (and also former housemate) wedding. She was lovely and elegant and the wedding was so sweet. It was simple; they got married in a church that was simply decorates in white and blue flowers and she and her groom were married under and arbor. The ceremony was informal and when the minister slipped up and said the wrong thing it wasn’t horrifying it was laughed off and everyone seemed so relaxed. I feel like this is how weddings should be.
It reminded me of mine. So relaxed and though there were a lot of people there it was intimate. Everyone was sharing in this very special moment, but you could tell that the bride and groom only were thinking of each other. It makes me smile just remembering that feeling. There was only him and I and the ministering saying that we were married, a church stuffed with people, but I barely noticed. I could only grin in happiness.
Nathan and I were just discussing today how it’s so hard to believe it was not even two months ago that we got married. Sometimes it feels as though we have been together our whole lives. It’s so normal, but also fantastic. We’re married! The wedding was an opportunity to introduce Nathan as my husband rather than my fiancé/boyfriend. It slid right out like the most normal thing; inside I was like, YAY!

Some nights I don’t sleep. I get random insomnia that will keep me awake all night and it is very frustrating. I either can’t shut off my brain or I simply am suddenly no longer tired. I am always exhausted the next day and of course am fully able to sleep once I am supposed to be awake. Living the third shift lifestyle as been interesting with these random insomniac tendencies; it’s hard to tell if I am unable to sleep do to it being 1pm and my body saying to it’s awake time or if it’s insomnia keeping me from sleeping either way switching my sleeping schedule has been difficult. Last night Nathan went to bed at 12 am. This is a somewhat normal bedtime for most people, for us however it’s like going to bed at 5 pm. WAY early. He was out for the night. Me I laid there for a couple hours, got up and watched a movie and finally crawled back into bed around 3 and proceded to toss and turn for another hour. Nathan woke up at 4 and I was still half awake, grumpy, frustrated and very, very tired. He was up at 8:30 and slept til 1:30. Sleep in this house is on a cracked out schedule. This fall is going to be fun. Switching sleep schedules to coincide with classes will be a challenge, especially if I have Bio at 7:45 am. :/
