Friday Rant & Rave

Thought I'd post this real quick before I get busy today!

Rant: Weather's crummy again.  I feel like I have a ton to do.  House isn't 100% spotless for the OOT friend who flies in this afternoon.

Rave: TGIF!!  Get to see a friend and hoping this visit will be a good one!  CA BM and the 3rd BM I added to the WP get to meet tomorrow.  Dinner with MOH tonight.  Gonna be a busy weekend (good and bad).

    Rant: I have so much wedding stuff to do but feel like I cant do any of it. My middle finger on my left hand feels like i broke it while sleeping. My son is at the "know it all stage" Backtalking all the time and I dont know how to deal with it quite yet. And the weather is back to the usual :(

    Rave: WW meeting last night I lost 3 more pds. Woot Woot. Its finally the weekend after a terribly long weekend. My son has a sleepover tomorrow night, should be fun :) FI home all weekend. Photographer promised epics would be done editing today :)

    Rant: My body is so sore from painting my parents house all week! The interior looks amazing, but I don't want to paint again for a long, long, time... And my vacation is now officially over and it didn't even feel like one. Ugh!

    Rave: Buy my invitations tomorrow! And am going to a party, which I always like, and my venue is holding an open house for us brides there on Sunday so we get to meet the pastry chef and get an esitmate on our cake! Yay! That is one thing that has been hanging over our heads, not anymore!

    RANT: My shoulder and neck are just getting worse so now I'm in constant pain again. Dad is now SICK on top of the sprained ankle AND having to be out of his condo by the 28th. I only slept 3 hours last night intermittently thanks to the anxiety over how much is left to do at his house, and those one-hour interludes of "sleep" were all bad dreams. My vacation is over and I only enjoyed maybe 1.5 days of it, boooooooo.

    RAVE: My dress arrived and is now at my sister's. Heading over to peek at it. Booked my baker yesterday! Florist had to reschedule so I didn't have 8:30 meeting tomorrow and instead could lie in bed feeling icky for a few more hours (yes, that is a rave!) Got the LAST pair of those shoes at piperlime and waiting for them to arrive to see if I did find my wedding shoes!

    Rant: My whole office is sick again, and I feel like I'm coming down with something...again. Ah, the joys of working in an educational institution.

    Rave: I have a relaxing weekend ahead of me. I really love those weekends where nothing much is planned so that I have a chance to refresh.

    I'm looking forward to seeing e-pics from those of you who are taking them this weekend!

    Rant: I'm eating a lean cuisine right now and am at work.  I really want fries or pizza instead and to be home in bed.  I guess it's good to be back on WW plan but it sure doesn't feel like it.

    Rave: Hopefully deciding on the honeymoon this weekend!  It's been quite the process but I think we're narrowing in on it.  I'll post when it's been decided.

    Rant: Working this weekend. Ugh. And I, too, am trying to do the healthy eating thing, which always makes me cranky. 

    Rave: FI and I got a ton of WR stuff done this week! Makes me slightly less anxious about the super long to-do list. Slightly. :)

    @jennlin: I hope you do, and please take a picture to share with us if it happens! :P

    Rant: My tummy is not happy due to nerves :(

    Rave: Wedding day tomorrow!!! Plus a special shout out to Derek at the Pro Sport's Club Spa today who gave me an awesome massage. My tummy didn't hurt for almost three hours. At least the rest of my body is feeling really good now.

    Rant:  This week has been the longest, most frustrating work week ever!  

    Rave:  The two extra meetings I had this week went better than I thought they would.  Also, I made chocolate chip cookies for FI, but they're really good & I am eating them (which I guess is a rant & a rave, I don't need to be eating that!).  Also, I recently found this blog & am obsessed with it:
