So Storm and I went to Martinez today and got our marriage certificate. He and I still need to have a ceremony to seal the deal, and then there is that bit about getting rings, but we are a step closer after 15 years. I think we are planning a simple ceremony in our backyard, which will take quite a bit of work to get into shape (since getting the store my love of gardening has had to take a backseat), but it is the best excuse I can think of for getting it all green again. Now if we can get coverage at the store and save our pennies we may be able to plan something of a honeymoon trip, which would be most lovely.
