I really hate being sick…nor do I have time for all this sickness!  I figured it up…I have a little over 11 weeks before my wedding day.  I HAVE to stick to WW.  I have to get my workouts in…I HAVE to do this so I feel good about myself on my wedding day.  Aside from that, my future husband is so wonderful.  It looks like we may be HIKING on our honeymoon!  I know it sounds a tad funny to say that, but I think it sounds like a lot of fun.  I know we aren’t going to be spending every waking hour in bed (although I’m sure we’ll do our fair share) and we are not teenagers anymore.  I do need to be in good condition for that!  Okay, as I’m feeling under the weather…the plan for the remainder of the week is to try to follow the WENDIE plan since I can’t really do any hard core workouts right now.  I can move a little but I think I should get past this first day of antibiotics before I think too much about that.  Okay, buddies, if you would be so kind as to help me and tolerate me for the next 11 to 12 weeks so I can at least get to my mini goal to feel good at my wedding, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Good morning buddies!  Well, we’re in for a busy day around here!  Chris is going to look at the CRV (my mess) so we can get packed up to head to Denison and then the country.  We meet with my Pastor this evening…and we’ve still got to discuss finances and all of that too.  There’s decisions that must be made pretty soon.  This is the part that I’m not looking forward to, but it will have to be done.  We are making headway and will be discussing the wedding stuff tonight with my Pastor.  I just hope we can nail some things down and move forward.  Chris’ grandmother is not doing real well right now so that’s a hard thing as well.  Okay, I know this is short, but I have to go get my teeth brushed and all after having breakfast.  Have a great weekend!

I wish I could say that I’d gone to Zumba tonight…for the first time in AGES…but alas, I did not!  I am sitting on my butt watching Grey’s.  I did, however, get on the treadmill for 10 minutes…unfortunately, I was aiming for 3o minutes…I feel like such a wuss!  I used to be able to do 30 minutes.  Oh well, at least I did something to make up for the fact that I woke up late and didn’t get to workout this morning.  I was so frustrated.  I dozed off early and missed Chris’ call and then I woke up at 3:40 a.m. and then took FOREVER to turn my brain off and go back to sleep.  Apparently when my alarm went off I hit dismiss instead of snooze…so I finally woke up at 5:45 p.m.

Well, Chris and I made it through our first visit with the counselor.  I am feeling much better after getting the first appointment out of the way.  I am hoping that we can get finished with counseling soon.  She was supposed to talk to my pastor to see exactly what he wants.  Buddies, I am respectfully requesting y’all keep Chris’ grandmother in your prayers.  She’s not doing so well right now.  I appreciate it.  I’m off for the night!  I hope everyone is well!

As I sit here on my butt watching BL, I decided that I needed to get on BS and send some love to my buddies!  Well, the tribe knows my news…but I haven’t been online to tell the rest of you yet…I’M ENGAGED!  Chris popped the question a week ago this past Friday!  I will totally and completely admit to being stunned.  I love this man more than I ever thought possible.  His daughter made the cutest statement to me on Mother’s Day…she said she wished I could have another baby…as much as I would love to have a baby with Chris…it’s simply not an option since my hysterectomy.  I love that she and her brother both want me to have another baby.  As we will be getting married this year, we’re looking at the end of July/first part of August, I better get my butt moving or I’m not going to lose the weight I need to…and finding the time to do it all in.  Kama’s pointed out that I probably just need to quit sleeping! ;-)  Perhaps she has a point…but I’m thinking the bags I’d have to carry down the aisle on my wedding day would be too dang heavy to carry! :-)  Okay, I’m off to watch the rest of BL!
