Well atleast its all good things keeping you busy.. In just a lil over a month.. it'll be a lot easier. AND you'll be relaxing on you HM!

i just hate rushing around after work - and its so hard to eat healthy and work out if i have places to be after work - unless i get up at 5:45 every moring and do it then - and i am NOT a morning person!

Oh I know.... I'm trying to watch carbs, and while I'm at work I tend not to eat bc I dont want to be bad But when I go out its soo much harder. I can imagine how hard it is when you're always on the move. I'm not going to even talk about not exercising

But Nik.. You are gorgeous.. You dont need to worry about working out!

totally! I definitely find myself eating worse when i'm too busy. That's probably because i have no time to cook something healthy, and then when i finally DO have the time to eat, i'm much too STARVING to think it thru. lol. And it's never healthy. Plus no time to work out.

But at least you're getting all this stuff done. That'll feel good, I'm sure

my problem is i LOVE fast food, i would eat it every single day - and when im busy and running all over - i just want to go to the drive thru and it wouldnt be the worst thing if i did that once or twice BUT i have 2 dinners to go to next week also - where i know they wont have anything healthy to eat - plus the confirmation party i have next wekeend is chinese my favorite - ill be stuffing my face! and i really wanted to use this last month to get in good shape for my HM - my bikins are so TINY! i need to get muscles!!

Oh Nik...i totally understand. I just looked at my to-do list to see what else eneds to get done. It just feels like time is moving faster than you want it to KWIM.

Soon you'll be back to your routine and you will have had one of the best days ever! I truly can't wait to see your pics.

that's exactly how the past month or 2 have been for me .. and trust me i know how u feel. Even though it's all good and happy stuff.. at some point u just wanna curl up under the covers with a good book, or just sleep..lol. Every day was either a vendor appt., a fitting, a party, a doctors appt, or something else.. and i wanted to scream!!! The first few months of planning were so smooth and then BAM!! it's like crazy time..lol.
But don't worry..as the wedding gets closer and you check more things off your list.. you will have less to do and you will start to feel a little more relaxed!! (ok i'm still not relaxed... lol....but i'm a lot better than i was 3 weeks ago)

that is exactly it - its like all of a sudden everything at once, its crazy!

wow you have your menu meeting with JT already sooo exciting!!! I guess I will be the next JT bride to schedule that meeting.

And I feel ya on the overwhlemingness (is that a word ) of wedding and non wedding stuff.

I have work mon-fri, and on tuesdays i go straight from work to hofstra for my 2 classes and i don't get out till 8:30 then on wednesdays i go to hofstra from work and have class till 6:30 and always go straight to the gym after (well usually) bec that's a good time to go. BUT i am always tired after that and can never get anything done. I have 3 classes worth of homework, plus i am observing at a school for 15hrs for one of my classes and then i work and have a freaking wedding to plan.

but the worst part is i wanted to make a sign to mail to the commanding officer's wife of Chris' unit to have her hang it up in his room when he gets back from Iraq since I can't be there and I have had NO TIME, I AM AN AWFUL FIANCE!!!!

Maybe i will make it this weekend and mail it but he gets back on Nov 9th and it takes a week or 2 to mail things to japan.

ughhh wedding crap has got me going crazy! i can't even think about the honeymoon and bathing suits it makes me sick

Tell me about it, I keep telling everyone 'I have never been so busy in my ENTIRE life' haha

I will enjoy it though, b/c when it's all over and I am sitting alone on my couch board out of my head, I will be thinking about this time lol
