Day 80

I managed to get a couple of minor things done today. I called and scheduled my final dress fitting. Yeah, I'm soooo scared for it. It's on August 30th, so that leaves me about five weeks to tone up my torso and lose the ten pounds or so that I still have to lose. But, hey, it's better than have to lose thirty pounds, which is what it was in the beginning. Eeek. I've been doing crazy amount of push-ups, since those are a good one to work your whole body, and I've been trying to do stretches and stuff while sitting at my desk. And I'm eating pretty healthy, too. Lots of water, yogurt, bananas, and Lean Cuisines. I eat "normal" for dinner, but I eat much smaller portions. And more water. I'm a woman on a mission. And if life would slow down just a teeny bit, and it would stop being 100 degrees outside, I might even be able to get some walks in in the evenings. At least I'm getting a bunch of exercise in with doing the rental, though. The dress zips up, I just can't take a deep breath in it, so I don't have too much to go at all.

I also called and left a message for my contact at the Holiday Inn Select to make some adjustments to the wedding. Just a couple of minor ones that won't really affect anything, but will save Myles and I some money, which is always good.

I also reorganized my "To Do/Buy" list, since I needed to add a couple of things to it, and it was getting messy. Those of you who know me know I don't like messy things. =) I'd rather re-write the whole list than to have to continue to look at the crossed-out items on it. That's just me, though.

And there has been nothing emotional or nothing "feeling"-wise lately. I don't think Myles and I have even discussed the wedding in a week or so. The last thing I want to do is bug him about wedding stuff when he's super-concentrated on getting Salem done and out of the way and paid for. So things are kind of on pause right now, and that's okay. We've got all the big stuff done, so we're pretty much good to go with everything. =)

Received the bridal shower gifts and they are adorable!!!! There was something else wedding that I was thinking about...oh oh...David and I came up with the concept of the cake! It's the cutest idea, and I have to thank David for that one, now I have to draw it out! LOL

So I'm excited about that one.
Then I have to start prepping for it also...Since the cake is going to be a long process. The decorations may take a while to create and dry for the cake, but it'll be worth it. :0)

I really need to talk to Darsha sometime in the near future, there are a few questions to ask about centerpieces for the tables, and such the like. :0)

Let's see, Oh yes I did get news that a few guests won't be attending the shower which is to be expected, but all in all it's okay, I want the SPECIAL REQUEST even if they can't be here, to be taken care of. This is of major importance for everyone to participate.

And Tera let us all know that we need to pick up our dresses, so I vow to do that by Friday...or day 75....I think Friday would be better, that way I know how much butt kicking workouts I need to be doing. Since my wedding in June, I've ballooned about 15 lbs, and that's no good.

But life hasn't let me slow down, and I'm getting alot of exercise and being exhausted when I go to bed at night, but not enough to keep the creepin' mud flaps on my legs and arms and belly from gettin bigger! BLAH!!! This scares me. LOL
