A million things on my mind!

First of all, the Wedding! Steph reminded me that I haven't made any updates lately...

1. I ordered my dress and am "patiently" waiting for it to come in.
2. We hired a DJ for the reception, I am really excited about him and I totally loved his personality.
3. I am meeting with a photographer tonight, I love her pictures and she has some awesome ideas for the winter theme!
4. I found gifts for all of my attendants! I think I promised pictures a few weeks ago and haven't done that. Anyways, I found black evening clutches at the Coach outlet in Florida, they were clearanced out for $40 ea. Last year I bought keychains with snowflakes on them and I will attach them to the clutches for each of my BMs!
5. I think I also promised pictures of the fur capes that I found. I found them at The White House Black Market outlet. Guess how much I payed??? $6.49 ea. They were originally $98! They are black faux fur shoulder capes. I will try and remember to take a pic this weekend!
6. I have started to work on the centerpieces, they will look something like this...

School! I can't believe it, only 2 weeks left! I have my final project due May 1st and I am spending about 2-4 hours working on it each day. I am really excited to be done but it might be a little hectic until then!
Weight. Well, I have been in control the last week or so, I haven't been tracking and to be honest I couldn't take it right now. Things are just too crazy. I have been making it to the gym 2-3 times a week and then running outside on nights it isn't freezing. I really hope that I can get to the point where I am running 3-5 miles 5x/week and then one long run over the weekend.
The Weekend! I don't know how I managed to schedule everything this weekend but it seems I will be running around like a mad women all weekend. I have Rosie this afternoon, then it's out to a birthday party. Saturday I have an appointment first thing in the morning, then pick up Rosie and watch her till noon, lunch with my sister, another appointment at 4, company coming over at 7. Sunday we have church at 9, breakfast with Father, hoping to squeeze in the gym and some other misc. errands, and finally I need to meet with my project group. Arghh...does this even count as a weekend?
Well, I better get back to work, I'm running the show this week so I have barely been able to work on my own stuff. I hoe everyone is having a good week and a fantastic weekend! Hugs!

I miss planning my wedding! Enjoy it while you can! The fzux shrugs sound great. I LOVE BHWM! I can't remember the date, how much longer? Just remember to BREATHE and soak it all in. And eat! I swear I lost at least 7 pounds the week before the wedding with all my running around, my skirt was even loose LOL (good thing you couldn't tell with the corset over it and the corset was made to allow for weight loss).
It sounds like you are doing great with your exercise! Keep it up. :) Hopefully once school is over you can relax a bit more.
