Thoughts on Thursday

- It's almost the weekend!

- This wedding is taking over my room. I'm buried in shower gifts, and shower balloons, and small wedding details. I think by the time May comes around I'm not going to have a place to sleep.

- There are some HUGE changes coming this year (besides the obvious getting married and moving out...) that have me feeling extremely conflicted emotionally.

- I am so unbelievably out of shape it isn't even funny

- I thought this exercise thing was supposed to get easier with time

- I love, love, LOVE getting wedding responses in the mail. It has pretty much become the highlight of my day.

- I'm looking for some new quick, easy and relatively healthy meals that can preferably be made in the slow cooker. Any suggestions???

- I'm also looking for some new blogs to follow. I have found the a lot of my staples have stopped posting completely, and I can't survive a day at work without reading blogs. Who are some of your favourites??

- My poor puppy is sick! Chris is home with him today, and I'm very worried at work.

- Thank you cards are exhausting! I'm about halfway through and I have been writing them every night since Sunday. I'm not looking forward to doing over 80 of these after the wedding.

- Chris and I have a bit of a road trip planned this weekend and I'm very excited

That's it for today. Happy Thursday!!!

Thoughts on Thursday

* This week has literally exploded. Things are insane at work, home...everywhere! I have no time to do anything at work and by the time I get home I just want to sit and stare blankly at the T.V until it's late enough for me to go to bed without feeling like an 80 year old.

*I didn't do a Valentine's Day post. We pretty much downplayed the whole thing this year. With our Anniversary (10 years!) in two weeks and the wedding quickly approaching we felt our money was better spent elsewhere. So I made cupcakes, Chris surprised me with Breaking Dawn and we went to look out Limo's.

* Yup. You read that right. We booked our LIMO! I finally made a decision and we went with the bus! It just makes more sense with our huge bridal party and the distance we need to travel between the church and venue (about an hour, give or take). This way we can all be together and no one needs to worry about how they are getting where on the day. The company we booked with is Privately Yours Limousine. We got an awesome deal and I could not be happier.

* We went to see "The Vow" last night. I have been anxiously waiting for this movie for months, so it would naturally be my Valentine's Day pick. After being at the theater on Saturday to see Underworld for my sister's B-Day (good movie but very gory) and seeing the amount of people in line to see The Vow, we decided going on Valentine's Day would be a horrible idea. So we went last night. MUCH better plan, the theater was practically empty.
My mini review: I was actually disappointed. I feel like there was so much build up for this movie, I had been waiting for it since before Christmas and it just wasn't as good as I thought it would be. It was cute. Your typical, generic girl movie, but I wouldn't really say there was anything memorable about it. Definitely wouldn't make me top ten list.

* Today marks exactly 100 days until my wedding! Time is flying.

After being engaged for three years, I have been through every emotion. I have wanted to push the wedding back, I have wanted to push the wedding up. I have wanted it smaller. I have wanted it bigger. Now I have one feeling: ready. I am ready. I can't wait for May 26th to get her and to become Chris's wife.

*It's almost the long weekend! It can not come fast enough. 2012 is turning out to be a very busy year and I could use three days of relaxation.

That;s it for today! Happy Thursday!!!

Thoughts on Thursday

* I'm exhausted! This week has been dragging, and I am ready for it to be over!

* I'm so excited for this weekend. Chris got me tickets to American Idiot for Christmas, and the show is on Sunday. We are going to lunch at the Spaghetti Factory (yum!) and then heading to the play. It's been a while since I have seen a live show so I can't wait.

* My life is turning into one gigantic to-do list. I have a constant stream of alteration schedules, last minute details, vendors and payments running through my head at all times.

* We have quite a few deposits due this month. Things are starting to get very real!

* Pinterst is NOT helping my problem with lists. I am literally on there ALL day pinning crafts I will probably never do, recipe's I will never make, and finding more and more wedding ideas that I never even thought of. This is sending me to etsy trying to find all of these wonderful things cheaper.

* I'm starting to wonder what I'm going to blog about when this wedding is over? Maybe I will magically find some money and I can start blogging about house renovations. One can hope right?

* I have to go back to work, so I guess that's it for today

Happy Thursday everyone!!!

Thought on Thursday

I feel the bunch of little, insignificant thoughts that are floating around in my head warrants a thoughtless post.

1) I'm so happy that it's Thursday because that means that tomorrow is Friday which means that we are that much closer to the weekend.

2) This weekend is so busy because on Sunday we have our Engagement pictures! Meaning that my Saturday will be spent running around making sure I'm ready

3)
I finished The Hunger Games at lunch today. I liked it. I thought it was an interesting idea. Kind of a cross between futuristic reality T.V and the Olympics. This being said, from all of the reviews I have been reading in the past weeks one would think this book was life changing. I'm not there. It was good, but it's not the best book I have ever read.

4)
I'm officially suffering from wedding stress. I'm so done thinking about colours, flowers, dresses and suits. I JUST WANT TO GET MARRIED! We have about 7 months left, and even that is too long. Let's just do this! Any other brides reach this point???

5) Thinking about where we are going to live is not helping the stress at all.

6)
I wish money grew on trees.

7) Job searching sucks.

8) I am WAY behind on my New York updates. It's not like I have been home for over a month or anything. My pictures are not on my work computer, and after 8 hours I don't really feel like turning on my other one. I'll try harder.

9) I also want to take pictures and show you the adorable scarf that my brothers girlfriend knitted me and I LOVE. So many goals!

10) I have fully embraced fall. I'm liking my sweaters, and Uggs. And to be honest, my fall scented candles, as well as the amazing amount of T.V is not hurting.

11) It has taken me a little over 3 hours to write this post as I keep stopping to do real work.

That's all of my thoughts for today. Happy Thursday!

Thoughts on Thursday

One of my favourite bloggers has been doing this for a while now, and recently made it a weekly feature. I have been wanting to join, but haven't found the time. Until today!

1. It has been almost a month since I last updated. I have no excuse. Other than life being crazy

2. Just because I haven't posted, doesn't mean I don't have a constant stream of potential blog post running through my mind at all times. Want examples...

• Wedding - There are a lot of things happening here (including my first experience dress shopping!!)
• Jobs - I started a working a couple of times a week for my mom who owns her own business. The money is good, but I'm exhausted

3. We got hit hard with snow here. Yesterday seemed to be an international snow day for everyone....except me. I already had the day off from school, and I work retail. retail closes for nothing

4. Due to the above point everyone in my class right now is currently well rested......except for me. I feel like I got hit by a truck

5. Brady is getting SO big. I have no idea when this happened. It was like all of a sudden my cute puppy is now a dog. A 30 pound dog who seems to think he is a lap dog despite what I tell him each and every day

6. Seeing as we're on the topic of Brady, this is a picture C sent me yesterday

....at least someone likes the snow!

7. I am currently on a hunt for a printing company that will make me pretty and cute invitations for a reasonable price. Suggestions?

8. Oh and remember the centerpiece hunt? Yeah we are still no closer to solving that problem

9. Monday was my engage-aversary (pretty sure I just invented a word). Two years ago on Monday C proposed to me. This means I get one more of these anniversaries until I become his wife!

I think that's it for the random thoughts floating around in my head today.

This was fun! If you want to join be sure to head over to Carolyn's blog, Life, Love and Puppy Prints
