So Busy September/ Day 1

Oh fall is here and I am super busy with sis's wedding stuff-- including the rad bachelorette party we are having in vegas!!

I looked at my two bathing suits last night, which were tucked away, stuffed all the way at the back of a shelf, under things I haven't worn in a few years. I looked at them and thought, "I am not going to fit in this!!" So, this morning, I woke up and took a walk. I need to tone up, shed some weight, and get ready for a good time in three weeks.

weight: 170

weight 2 months ago after 2 weeks of Jillian Michaels videos: 162

uuuggghhhh!!

I need to compose my thoughts.

Okay.

Let me start all over!!! lol.

I am super excited about sis's wedding next month and her bachelorette party at the end of this month-- which so happens to be in party city itself, Vegas!!

But first, being a bridesmaid isn't easy. There is a lot to do. K and I have been helping my mom with the bridal shower, and I cannot wait until its done. I hope T gets some good prezzies and has a good time!! I still have to get her a gift, but I will probably do that this weekend.

Being an Avon rep does make it easy, though. T picked out a few necklaces for the bridesmaids and flower girl to wear, and we got them at a great price (on sale plus my discount---good deal!!).

I do want to loose some weight between now and the end of september, though. I want to increase my energy level and be able to fit in one of my bathing suits comfortably!! (see upsetting rant above).

Once the wedding is over, I am hoping to throw an Avon party to get ready for the Christmas holiday season. Everyone of my clients from the past year will be invited!! So, if you are looking for a fun afternoon at the end of October--- email me today and make sure to get on my mailing list!!

Don't let her become one

Bridezillas. I never thought I would see one in person. Unfortunately, I have it one step further: I am watching my sister metamorphis into one. Its an ugly sight.
I think there is still hope, I am praying there is still hope.
I love her so much, but its all she talks about and thinks about. Her wedding. Her wedding is in October. Nine months away. Now, call me silly, but some people are pregnant for 9 months, but they might not know it until the second or third month. If it was a lovely accident, thats only 7 or 8 months to plan a life. When the mom and dad to be go to birthing class, they don't learn about just labor...they learn about nutrition, healthy habits during and after the pregnancy, what to expect during labor, how to breast feed, it just goes on and on. Now, in a sense, sister is planning a life...a lifelong marriage. Interestingly enough, she has not talked about being married....only the wedding day. When you have a child, you don't just talk about the birthing day...for all nine months. You talk about feeding, raising, daily ins and outs, everything!!

Yesterday, it was the limo. She needs to give the limo service (she hasn't picked one yet) an itenary of the big day, but she hasn't decided on a time to have the actual wedding service yet! She also expects us to get a ride from someone to the salon to get our hair done, and she wants the limo to pick us up from there...to go back to my house. But, first, we all need to get rides to the salon. Someone has to drop us off to get our hair "did". Its so confusing and doesn't make a lick of sense to me. I am not married, so yep, your right. I don't know.
I do know that a wedding is one day. A marriage is hopefully forever. Focus on the marriage.
