H and I booked our honeymoon, last night. I am so excited! We are going to Nice, France for a week. (He has a work meeting there, as his company is based out of Nice.) I won't see him all week, but I can keep myself occupied in France! Our honeymoon doesn't start until the next week. We are going to Italy for 10 days. Lmao. I will be gone for 17 days. SHIT! I didn't realize how long we would be gone, until now! Guess I should get my cat sitter something really nice!
We originally weren't going to go on a honeymoon but he gets a free flight to Europe (because of work), and I got a free flight from credit card points. So we only have to pay for our hotel in Italy, food in Italy, and my food in France. Plus due to the generous gifts from our wedding guests, we have some extra spending money. We weren't going to take a honeymoon, and never planned it until after the wedding when we realized we could, after all. So brides, don't do a honeymoon registry, your guests will always give money, and they will be more kind when you aren't demanding. (Not to mention you won't have to pay a service charge for the gift your guest was going to give you, anyway).
I am telling you, I feel so relieved, because once the honeymoon is over, I will go of the pill, and we can try to have a baby. (Periods are terrible, didn't want to go off the pill on our honeymoon, and ruin our trip being sick.) And after the honeymoon, I am updating my resume to get a new job! I am so excited about what it is to come, and I am really grateful.
