ahhh i have not written in this in so long! after i swore i would be better about it. you’d be surprised how much a full time job and wedding planning take out of you! if im lucky, i get to read a book for a little while. unfortunately all my free time goes to reading, what little time there is and thus leaves not much time for blogging -_- sad. 

so wedding planning is going good. still have a lot to do…details and stuff…like favors…napkins…table cloths..etc. and still need to find someone to do my hair and makeup. i really need to give that place in york a call…yup need to do it after this post actually. ive been putting it off way too long and if i put it off anymore they might not be able to do it! so yesterday i went to try on my wedding dress (because of weight watchers i have to go try my dress on every month because they took it down two dress sizes in anticipation for weight loss) anyways IT FITS. it zipped all the way! eeek. so that was exciting. :) 

lets see…in other news i got my first spray tan the other day. well actually a week ago. it was funny because you have to get in these four awkward positions and i messed up the last one so my hands got a little messed up and awkward looking but other than that it was good. it looked very natural and not orange so i was impressed.

i finished the book the lucky one. it is one of my new favorite books. it was beautifully written and i loved the characters. two thumbs up from me nicholas sparks!

bryan and i are on a wait list for a husky puppy!! they are due to be born in may so we would get him/her in july which is perfect cause the last thing we need right before our wedding is a puppy! but after is completely fine. and his mom sold the 5 acres of land we own on the otherside of the turnpike which is awesome cause now we can build our addition this summer and have our own space! wahoo <3

saw midnight premiere of hunger games! liked it a lot. there were some changes from the book which made me sad but its inevitable. and for the most part it stayed true to the book. woody harrelson was an awesome haymitch. he was prolly the best character but katniss was good too. 

i think that’s a good summary of the last couple weeks. hopefully the next time i write won’t be so far away. :)

everybody needs somebody to lean on

my somebody!

Today I am feeling lucky. Lucky to have someone who I plan to be with forever. Although we drive each other crazy at times, we couldn’t imagine being with anyone else. Makes me wish everyone can have this. When people use the cliche of “marrying my best friend today” I actually understand what that means. He really is my best friend and I’m not sure what I would do without him. As June 23rd quickly approaches i’m nervous. I want everything to be perfect…and I need to let that go because something is bound to happen. I know that no matter what our day will be special, and that the key is not get stressed. I’ve been doing good so far…I just hope I can hold my composure as it gets closer.

In other news…I broke my slump! Yeehaw. I’ve been at the same weight for 5 weeks! like legit the same. I have to look at it as good that I didn’t gain but it’s still discouraging when you don’t lose weight. I also have to remember that the number on the scale is not everything. The fact that I started at a size 14 pants last May and am now a size 10 it is obviously working. But today I weighed in and lost 1.1 lbs. YAYY. This is the motivation I needed to keep going and I can’t wait to stay on track all this week and see where it gets me next week. Tomorrow starts my new workout goals…i WILL go to the gym Weds-Sunday. 5 days a week. Mondays and Tuesdays are my days off from work and I want them to be my days off from gym as well. I deserve a break. No more being lazy…i WILL get my money out of this gym membership and go! I’ve already got my gym clothes in my car so I can go straight after work. No more excuses.

So in my last post I thought someone special forgot my birthday but it turns out they just needed a few more days to plan and get ready for it so I had two birthday extravaganzas! Tonight Bryan took me and him and his mom helped me buy an iPad and I have to say I am in love! Once you go Mac you can’t go back.

This week I am feeling a little bummed because for the last 4 weeks I have been stuck on the same weight. I guess it is better than gaining but it still sucks to hit that plateau. I know I am responsible for it tho because I haven’t been as true to the program as I was earlier. I need to get back into the tracking mode. It is just so hard when life gets busy. But I know how good I feel when I am sticking to the program and I need to get back to that. I feel so bloated and yucky tonight.

We picked our wedding dinner menu the other day! Guests get ready for either chicken cordon bleu or baked stuffed haddock (which bryan and have tried and it is to die for if you like fish. Just sayin)

I’m finally halfway through mockingjay but it is like killing me because it is so depressing. I got a few new books for. Y birthday that I am excited for like lone wolf and the vow and the lucky one by Nicholas sparks.

Wow I am totally all over the place with this post tonight. Must be the lost hour who h really sucked seeing as it felt like I was at work at 6am grossssss. Well I need sleep. Until next timeeee!

23 years young.

Well I had my 23rd birthday and lemme tell you I was dreading it. Birthdays become less fun after you turn 21, after that glorious age you just start to well…age. But this birthday turned out a pretty good success. 

I had to work, which everyone was like OMG YOU’RE WORKING ON YOUR BIRTHDAY?!?! well yeah I need the $$$. Plus, I get out at 4, so it’s not a huuuuge deal and not like I can’t do anything. So after work I met my family and Bryan for some hibachi. I have to say it was pretty good…minus the 5 drunk girls we had to share our table with. SOOOO annoying. I dunno how old they were…obviously older than me, but they were just mega annoying. Not only that but one of them had their like 5 year old daughter with them as they were all doing shots and whatnot. And she kept yelling at her daughter for being too quiet and looking bored. Gah it annoys me so much. I would never do that to my little girl. I’m all about still enjoying myself when I become a parent but really do you HAVE to drag your 5 year old daughter out for a night of drinking with your friends? Oy. 

So the food, not bad. Not as good as Oishi in Florida but really not bad. And it was nice that my brother came. Then we went home to my parents house and opened some presents. Got electronic banking monopoly. Score. It’s a tradition in my family that when we all get together we settle down for a night of games. May sound lame to some but to me I love it. I’d settle for a night of food and drinks and games with my family rather than getting black out drunk on the floor anyday :P 

My broski got me some itunes cards and a grocery store gift card. You know you’re getting old when you’re excited for some help with your groceries. #growingupsucks and one of my itunes cards is broken :( I went to scratch off the code and the numbers scratched off with it. #fail thank you apple. so now I have to wait for them to email me back before I can redeem it. 

Some important people to me forgot my birthday…I think maybe it’s cuz they couldn’t afford to get me a present…but let’s be serious…I’m not 5. presents aren’t everything to me anymore. Just a simple nice happy birthday would have been all I needed…oh well.

But I think the goods outweigh the bads and my birthday was a success. I have a wonderful family who does way too much for me and someday I hope I can give back to them.

Bryan got called back for an interview finally. On my birthday. so that must be a good sign. He really wants the job so i’m crossing all 10 fingers he gets it. I know not having a job is driving him bonkers.

well, that brings the birthday recap to an end. Until march 7th 2013 :P scary.

ok so starting today i am going to be using this as my weight loss journal/food journal/ exercise journal….im hoping it will keep me on track! slipped last week and with only 4 months til my wedding i can’t slip anymore! so noon after i weigh in i will start my first post. yay
