the crazy, out of control, sometimes a little psycho…me. This week has been a blur of bakery’s, photographers, venues, and caterers. I did NOT expect there being this much crap to plan a decent wedding. I am very excited don’t get me wrong but I’m a *tad* OCD when it comes to planning things so you can just imagine how it’s going. So far though we have decided on our first dance song which will be *drumroll please* – La vie en Rose by Loiu.s Arm.strong – such a pretty song. I am also planning a surprise salsa dance which should be a lot of fun All in all things are going ok.
In ttc news – we are making a pilgrimage to St. Augus.tine to see (and rub) the fertility statues. I am hoping that the spell lasts until Feb. when we try again. With the wedding planning going on we are debating on taking a longer break until after it’s over. I was thinking the other day that maybe it’s not working because we didn’t follow the song. You know, the song about “First comes love, then comes marriage, THEN comes the baby in the baby carriage.” You see what I’m saying – we’re missing the middle part. It’s like the underpants gnomes in south park! So anyway, still planning on Feb. trying but we might hold off for a while longer if that cycle doesn’t work so we can concentrate on our big (illegal) day.
Moving on. The weather here is worth mentioning – usually I don’t comment on things like the weather but it is cold as donkey balls here in florida! I mean almost a week with nights in the 20’s is insane and now I hear that it may actually snow here tomorrow. It hasn’t snowed in florida since ‘89. I was only 8 years old then but I remember my parents making such a fuss. I remember, not pretty white snow but, a big brown muddy mess everywhere…jeesh I hope that doesn’t happen again!
In quilting news, I am totally swamped! Well, not really but the few projects I do have going feel like they are taking forever and now with the other planning going on it’s cutting into my sewing time. Not to mention that I am also going to the gym because…ummm I’m NOT going to have two chins in pictures that I am paying boo-koo money for okay. Not happening. So now I’m getting a personal trainer. ALL of these things are cutting into time that I should be sewing and making samples for the shop – but it ain’t happenin’ folks. I am dog tired when I get home and the thought of having to go back and work some more after such a long day is so unappealing. Especially when my warm cozy bed is calling my name.
In weight-loss news, I, after much persuasion, have decided to register for my first 5K in Feb…yes THIS Feb. I am barely running 1 1/2 miles now and at only about 4.5 mph. But you gotta start somewhere right…so here I am. Starting somewhere. I weight in on my first day at the gym at about 12 in the afternoon (fully clothed and one bottle of water later) and had a starting weight of 190. Random thought – did anyone else catch BL last night? WTF is going on with Jillian? She was doing some crouching tiger hidden dragon shit on the treadmill next to the orange lady and then the next thing you know…that lady wouldn’t stop screaming! I have been a long time fan of this show but I must say – they are making it way too commercially. The promos are my favorite “here try this Brit.a water filtration system because it’s the only water you can drink if you want to lose weight.” And what is with the psycho-analysis that they are doing? Shouldn’t the contestants be talking to a therapist? Maybe I’m just nostalgic and wishing it was the way it used to be…when it was about losing weight – not promoting Zip.Lock and T.rident gum. Anyway enough of my ranting and raving…I gotta go check my pipes and make sure they are dripping….frieken weather.
