OK... so I just realized that all week at work I have been dating things 2010 and I looked back at my other QOTDs and I put 10 at the end of them as well!!! LOL... I am losing it!!!
So here is my QOTD for 6/13/2009!!
Have you and FH discussed what you think life was going to be like after your wedding? Are their any goals you have set as a couple or things you want to accomplish? Are you going to start trying to have kids right away... travel more... finish school,,, buy a house... move to another state???
FH and I have a few things we want to do... one I know is pay off my student loans!! I owe Sallie Mae my first born and a kidney. Haha!! We have discussed children and we agree that we want to wait because we love to travel and want to see a few more places in the world before we have kids. We're currently house hunting so we hope to have that taken care of before we walk down the aisle but we want something we can improve on so we will probably be spending a lot of time working on that. (I love a project!!) FH is also going to look for a job that doesn't have him travelling as much, it was the one thing that was non-negotiable. I didn't want to be married to a man who was only here 3 days a week, I see what it does to the guys he works with so we knew it was something that would have to change. And I think that covers it!!

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
We have our plans as to what we want to do. We definately want to avoid being in an apartment for too long, our main goal is getting enough money for a decent down payment for a house and then finding something in PA or somewhere affordable on Long Island (affordable on long island?? I think i might be dreaming...) We want to wait until we are in a house and settled before we start having kids...Plus I told him no kids until we go to Italy lol So I believe we are planning to go to Italy around our 1 year anniversary with his cousin and his cousin's wife (its around the same time as their 3 year anniversary...And I think his cousin hates me now bc I got his wife saying the same thing I am saying, no kids until Italy!! lol)

We will probably wait a year and then start trying for kids. I might go back to school for a PhD, and we'll also try to travel. We're very ambitious people

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
Nothing will really change, just paying off my student loans and any other debts we have. We already have a house and we don't have plans to have kids, just getting a puppy

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
Find a spot to live we are still debating the whole CT/NY thing. I told him that I dont want to move west until we retire since I cant give up my East coast life with all my friends and family. I want my kids to be around their family as much as possible. We will probably start to try having kids after the wedding since I will be almost 30 when I get married. I also will still be going to school hopefully I will have my associates degree right after we get married.

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
we talk about it all the time. for me this is the part I wait the most for. I am thinking about taking classes post MBA after the wedding, he wants maybe to go back to school. But we do plan on trying for kids a little bit after the wedding, but 1st we want to buy an apartment (I dont like all the responsibilities that go with owning a house). Traveling is something we can always do even after having kids, I dont see that as a something that will interfere with my plans for that.
We haven't really discussed it that much - we are going to start lookin for a home more seriously this summer. Right now we rent a house from my dad and step mom (step-moms childhood home - her dad used to live here) We would love to buy this house but we could never afford the area - if my parents let us continue to rent here forever we would do that because we love it here so much. I would like to have children too. Im thinking of going back for my masters too but I'd like to start a family first (sounds crazy I know but I'm getting older and older as we speak)

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
We are going to continue saving the way we are to buy a house...and prob have a baby within the year. We've traveled so much already...and will continue to do so. We're getting all of the non-child friendly places out of the way first.

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
We want to buy land and build a house before anything else..
FH wants kids sooner than I do, so we will see how that works out.
FH already has a stable job as an RN...& I hope to have a stable job as a teacher either by the time we are married or soon after.
I'd also like to get into photography & FH has mentioned getting into renting out apartments.

We have talked about it alot. Kids always come up. We want to be married for at least a year and then start trying. We are trying to buy a house before the wedding but its hard saving for both. We want 3 kiddies =)

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
This is funny FH and I were just discussing this a few days ago.....SO after the wedding our #1 goal is to buy a house!! Work and save lots of money and travel before we have babies. The past few years has been nothing but working our buns off and it's been crazy with me in school, it consumes soo much of my time and personal life that I feel that I really haven't been able to enjoy much of anything, so we def. want to take that time to just enjoy life and and eachother and travel to many places!! We plan on waiting 2-3 years and then have kids!! can't wait!!!!

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
I'm looking into a government law enforcement job that requires me to be away for a few months for school. If I get accepted, I'll be doing that shortly after our wedding - well, a few months after. We will be saving up for a home, though are up in the air with where we'll settle down. The job I'm looking into will not require me to relocate, unless I want to. Good to know the option is there if I need it. We will be doing a lot of travelling; this is something we are both looking very much forward to. Kids? Eh. If we decide to pop out any rugrats, it'll be a few years down the road. We're both still very much into being spontaneous and not being tied down to the responsibilities that come along with children.

Re: QOTD 6/13/09!!
after we are married i dont think much will change since we already live together. our plan is to save for a house after the wedding and try to get some of our student loans paid down. We really wanna do all this before we start thinking about having kids.
