Today my fiancee came up to my place and we made apple crisp and an apple crumb pie for our Thanksgiving party up at my brothers place.
We are now 75% sure we want to get married on December 31st. The next hurtle is, where will it happen. Mary wants to have it at the top of a mountain. Well we are not at a shortage of mountains around here. I have a natural skeptical streak in me. An issue i see is the mountains by me all require a Snow-park parking permit just to park there for a little while. These cost about $10 per day per car. I do not really feel comfortable with asking the attendees to pay that, and I am not really sure we can afford it. This is Washington, there is NO WAY to guarantee what the weather will be like. So the question still remains, where to have it.
My brother suggested to use a mountain up by his place, he also has one of those self standing 10'x10' tent thing.. they type you see at the street fairs.
This Friday we will take a look at this place. Looking at the place on a map it may work out well.... it has a road to the top. :D

Work Hours
Every couple of months my team at work goes through a change in schedules. Well we just went through another one and my shift got changed for the worse. My new schedule is now Sat - Mon
7:00pm - 9:00am. I don't mind so much the option of working three days a week. But when I am already struggling to make it to a 9am church time on a day I don't even work, getting off at the same time our main meeting starts is going to be really tough. As people keep telling me the bright side of this is that in January my church schedule will switch to 1pm. My problem with that is it will not be right in the middle of when I should be asleep so as not to be a zombie at work.
I was also upset that I was going to have a possible conflict with taking my fiancee to our group holiday party. The party was scheduled for Saturday the 13th of December. The Week after I start my new Saturday night schedule. Well I felt a little vindicated this past week when our CVP for our group announced that the party was canceled for this year... Well if I can't go... I guess no one can go... I know it is sorta lame to think that way...
