Day 51 - 47

Amazingly enough, I haven't been consumed with wedding stuffs. The only thing I did was cancel our DJ so that Jason, Misty's cousin, can DJ for us. I'd rather have someone I know do it. And it's a bonus that we're friends with him. I sat down last night to get him the information he needs about the big day, songs lists, people, etc. All of the pertinent stuff. I'm really needing to sit down and go over my To Do lists and see what all I can get done this week, since from here on out I'm sure things are going to be pretty hectic. This coming weekend is my final dress fitting, the weekend after that is my bridal shower, and the rest of september is shaping up to be darn busy, too. Then comes the first two weeks of October, which are jam packed for me.

I'm crossing my fingers about the dress this weekend. I've really been watching what I eat and trying to do some back exercises to work on the back flab. LOL That's what's making me unable to take a deep breath. It zips fine, I just have to be able to breathe in the damn thing. I've been wanting to go on walks with Myles, but we've just been so busy that it hasn't happened. So, cross your fingers for me!

Day 52

I got a few wedding things done today, but nothing major. Myles and I got Stephanie's dress sent out to her in Hawaii. She should get it on Thursday. And a piece of advice...only send VERY SMALL THINGS to Hawaii. Like, um, cards and letters. LOL Anywho...The cake topper also came in yesterday. It's very Myles and Tera. LOL I let Myles pick it out since he's kind of been in charge of the cake, since he's always had a very specific idea of what he wants. The cake of all things is what he's picky about. *shrug* Odd to me, but, hey, it's his wedding too. =)

I meant to get the DJ info out to Jason last night, but we ran a few errands and after I got home and get dinner made and out of the way, it was pushing 8:30, and I had to call my dad. =) Last night was his very last night of school. He has his MBA now!! That is so awesome and I'm so proud of him. When Mom and Dad are up for the 6th and we go out, we'll have more to celebrate!!! This is a huge accomplishment for him, and I just thinks it's really awesome. =)

Day 53

Today ended up being a crazy day. I won't go into details. At one point, I was starting to get an email done to send to Jason about the deets for DJing the wedding and reception, but then Misty decided to leave again, so that idea flew out the window. =) Other than that, nothing. Oh, wait, I got a couple of RSVPs in the mail and logged them into the spreadsheet. =) And that's it.

Day 54

I tried to work some more on my list, but ended up feeling like crap, so I mostly just sat on the couch all day and watched TV. Myles and I took turns in the evening laying with our head on the other's lap and watching Gene Simmons Family Jewels. LOl Yeah, highly eventful, but it was nice and relaxing and even though we were only watching TV, it was nice to just spend some time together. I did end up getting one thing on my list done, and that was going through the house with the Swiffer and getting any cobwebs I could find. I don't walk through my house looking at the ceiling, so they're something I tend to forget about. =P I won't be able to work on the list this coming Saturday because of heading to the air show, but I shoudl be able to get a couple of things done in the evenings and next Sunday. I'm not worried. I know I'll get it all done. =)

Day 56 ad Day 55

The only wedding stuff done was getting some RSVPs in and the Unity candle coming in. Other than that, I've been trying to work on the house this weekend to get it ready for the bridal shower, since my next two weekends beforehand we/I have stuff going on. An airshow in Indy next weekend and then on the 30th I'm heading to South Bend to have my final dress fitting and then I'm just gonna stay the night with Mom, Dad and Matt to spend some time with them. Then, the next weekend is the bridal shower. =) So yeah, I'm a busy gal. Plus editing, plus trying to get some writing done, plus work.

And then after that, even more wedding madness begins. This is awesome. And then we get the honeymoon. Man, I'm so looking forward to everything. It's the only time I ever get to do it, so I'mn gonna enjoy every single blessed second of it. I can't wait for our wedding day and to see Myles looking all gorgeous for me in his tux. =)

Day 57

Not too much wedding stuff other than I sent an email to Jason to make sure he was 110% gonna do the DJing for our wedding. We decided on Saturday that we were gonna call and cancel the DJ we already have and have Jason do it if he could. =) And he can. So we will have an awesome DJ who happens to be one of our friends, and Misty's cousin. lol

The only other thing I did was to tie some ribbons on some bubbles. Woo hoo! LOL I actually didn't finish, because I'm thinking I'm not going to need all of them tied, due to the reduced number of people. So I'm then just gonna give the extras to the kids to blow. =) They'll have fun with that.

And that really about it. Had some discussions with the moms, but really nothing else. It's winding down, with what exactly I have to do, so we're getting there! I can't believe how fast it's coming. It's less than two months away now, and my bridal shower is in like three weeks. And with as busy as Myles and I are, and the list of stuff I want to get done to the house, that's not much time. Considering the fact that next Saturday Myles and I are going to be gone all day in Indy at and air show, and the next weekend, though three days long, I'll be out of town Saturday and a lot of Sunday since I'll be going to South Bend and staying with Mom and Dad and Matt, spending time with them and having my final dress fitting.

Day 58

I had planned on getting the bubbles done tonight, but alas, I didn't. And I don't feel bad about it in the slightest, because instead of sitting around the house on my butt, Myles and I actually went on a walk. We're going to try and go every other day. And the walk we went on was no small walk, either. It was about two miles or so, from our house to the Blakely house (which is where we used to live). I was feeling it by the time I got home, but I'm not sore today, so that's a positive. And I about freaked out on Myles last night, because after the walk, when I walked upstairs, my knee didn't pop. LOL I was soo happy. It did this morning, though. So, more walks it is. I'm trying to work really hard to lose the last bit of weight in the next couple of weeks. This dress thing is stressing me out something fierce. No ice cream, no junk food, no nothing. It's been hard, but I'm managing. The only thing I haven't given up, which is a huge source of fat and calories, is my gas station cappucino on Monday-Friday mornings. I'm going to make today my last day of it, though. *sigh* Tonight is some weight training in front of the TV and another walk tomorrow. I can do this, I know I can. I only have a TEENY bit more to go before the dress is a perfect fit. It WILL be done. =)
