I'm sorry that it's been so long since I've updated my blog, but I've had a very busy past few days. Maybe inside I'm deliberately missing a few days because I'm already starting to have a hard time dealing with the fact the blog will almost be finished:( Work wasn't that busy on Thursday and it seemed to drag, although I was able to get a mini project I've been working on done. That was good and then it started to pick up the last few hours. I immediately drove home because my second to oldest sister was coming to visit me and I wanted to have time to get my shower over with prior to her arrival. Once I got home I sorted through the mail, gathered the trash up and then quickly got in the shower. Right after I was done with my shower I folded the laundry from the previous day. Before I knew it my sister was at my house! We went out to a local bar to watch the beginning of the game and have some dinner. Then we went to one of my favorite bars in the area and we were there for the rest of the evening.
I had an absolutely fantastic time and it helped that Derek Jeter didn't disappoint in his final game. The atmosphere at the bar was great because everyone was cheering him on and got really into the game. Then there was karaoke, which is always fun to watch! I feel bad because I had my sister out way later than she needed to be, but I think she had fun too! I woke up the next morning with a horrible headache and I got out of bed only to get an ibuprofen. When I officially woke up around 12:30pm I was feeling amazingly better. My Mother called me and I spoke with her for a while then I spent some time researching for our honeymoon. At the same time I also gave my twin sister a call because I knew she'd be good at helping with traveling details, which she was. I'm still on the fence about our exact plans but hopefully I solidify them soon.
The day kind of got away from me because by the time I was off of the phone with my twin sister I realized it was about 3pm already! I got in the shower then headed out to run some errands. They included the bank, Dunkin Donut's, Target, David's Bridal and finally Trader Joe's. I was actually really excited to be going to Trader Joe's and I got a lot of good food. The only thing I was disappointed about was the fact they didn't have any pomegranate seeds left:( Once I got home I had just finished getting the groceries put away when my fiancé arrived. We decided to go out and grab dinner at our favorite local eatery, then we came back home to watch a movie. The movie was really great, it was called "The Yards" and it had Mark Wahlberg, Joaquin Phoenix, Charlize Theron, and James Caan in it. I couldn't believe that I had never heard of it, but I'm glad that it was on because I definitely enjoyed it.
Today we woke up around 11am and my fiancé made us a "lighter" Saturday morning breakfast since we're both on a wedding diet. We had eggs, watermelon and we shared an English muffin. My fiancé ended up spending the rest of the morning mowing the lawn and trimming the hedges while I continued with our honeymoon search. I also did some work on the wedding invitation list by starting to compile all of the addresses. My fiancé left for his house right before I started to get ready for work and then I went in. Work started out okay but progressively got worse and I have to say it ended up being a terrible night. I couldn't believe how many issues came up and we had a very good crew working. For lunch snacks I brought carrots and green beans, which I had gotten at Trader Joe's yesterday. I also had a Lean Cuisine for dinner and of course a coffee!
I'm a little bit disappointed in myself for my two splurge days this last week, Thursday and Friday. As the wedding gets closer I am realizing that I'm going to have to be a lot better about not having splurge days so frequently. I think the real reason I'm beating myself up about this is because I haven't had time to workout the last few days. I also haven't had time to do a load of laundry and you'd be surprised how much I have to do! I must say that the last few days of not having to do laundry has been very pleasant. I'm going to have to do some tomorrow though! I've been doing pretty good with my hand washing I must say. I think it's because I haven't spent that much time around the house cleaning:) Alright, well I'm going to get going!
