rush

It’s only Thursday! This week has been pretty slow!  Monday was really hard to get out of bed after sleeping in so much, but I’m starting to get readjusted to the 5:45a.m. alarm clock!  I’m glad tomorrow is Friday tho! 

I’ve been working out at the rec every other day and doing the other days at home with my weight and pilates DVD.  I used my Target gift card and bought 5 pound weights.  Wow.  Going from 3 pounds to 5 was really rough! I was really sore most of the week from it! and that one is only a 30 minute video! (25 of weights).   I do feel like its helping by moving the weights up, but its really hard to do the last few reps on each move and I want to die!

I was at the gym the other day and all the elipticals were full, so I had to go on the treadmill.  I’ve never read anything while I worked out, but there was a cosmo magazine on it already.  I read almost the whole magazine and was in shock at how fast the time went by.  The magazine covers up the time, so you just kinda press and go!  i finally looked at how much time i had left when i was 35 minutes into and then again at the 50 minute mark. 

The mag had a article for a weight loss diet pill called cuur.  It said it was for those wanting to lose those last 10 pounds…. out of curiousity I went to the website, www.cuur.com.  I can’t believe it.  The active ingrediate contains green tea extract (which is also in dexatrim–which is caffine and why just one dose made my heart beat so fast i thought i was having a heart attack!!).  It says that in one day, its like drinking 14 cups of coffee!!! 14!!!! how the heck is that legal??? I couldn’t believe it… I wonder if anyone has died yet from taking it. 

Other than that its been a rush trying to get all the wedding plans done these days.  We finished our save the date template at shutterfly.com and hope to get those out in the next couple weeks… we also started a wedding website (www.steveandangie.org) which I’m currently working on while its been super slow at work.. we have a lot to add to it yet, but Masha found us a promo code and it was 50% off to do it, so I thought why not.  We also registered at Target and Bed/Bath this weekend… wow.  talk about 3 hours!!! I still didn’t get some kitchen stuff scanned because the store was closing!  luckily I can search and add stuff right online instead of having to go back in~! :)

We have been emailing the wedding coord back and forth and was hoping to put the majority of deposits on the CC, but it doesn’t work that way internationally…. you have to do bank transfers and whatnot….phew… what a pain trying to find a bank to do that!! I’m sure it’ll be worth it in the end having to eat ramon noodles again for the next few years :)

I’ve been taking a hair and nail vitamin for about a week now.  I’m finally noticing my nails have grown fast! not only fast, but really strong! I have had a bad habit of tearing my nails & they have been so strong, I can’t!!! I also noticed yesterday when I pulled my hair back in a ponytail the sides of my hair aren’t showing my scalp as much… sometimes I wonder if its in my head, but hopefully that means that even if my hair isn’t all growing back, that it at least looks stronger….

Now its back to the grind… of updating our wedding site.. this is going to take awhile!
