What migraine meds are you taking? I get them regularly and my neuro put me on Topamax and Verapamil. They both work well. I am very sensitive to meds and I have never had a problem with these two. I take Maxxalt as needed.
Rave: It's Friday, We are ordering our inserts for our invites from Costco today
Rave: Paperzone is having a sale so I can buy the paper products I need for my wedding and not feel like I'm spending too much because I'm not getting it from online. This means I can start my invites this weekend! CRAZY! that means this wedding is really happening!
Rave: This week passed by quickly! I'm excited to go to that wedding show this weekend and hopefully get some checks done!

um I am not sure what it is called, i just got this need kind because my body got use to taking the maxxalt so it wasnt working anymore :(
but its the nasal spray kind and i DO NOT suggest getting it.... I will have to talk to my doctor about those two!!
thank you for the suggestions :)
Raves: After everyone's advice regarding registries and how people will get us stuff regardless of whether we have one or not.... We're going to try to put together a registry at C&B this weekend. Try being the big key word! I figure with one of those scanner guns and cocktails or mocktails and food it might be a lot easier to get over inhibitions to just add things.
We're also going to go try cakes at Creme de la Creme. Mmm, cake.
We might also go get our rings ordered this weekend, since our legal ceremony is coming up in June (pending visa).
Our wedding planner did awesome things this week which means FI and I have a lot to discuss about what direction we want our wedding to go in. After all that freaking out, I am so glad we hired her.
I was going to buy this dress for a friend's wedding and thought they had my size but realized they really don't, not anymore. Not since I've lost so much weight lately, which made me want to cry of happiness. It's too bad they don't have my size, but it's good that they didn't? Heehee.
I booked a ticket to go to New York for 5 bucks (frequent flier miles for the win!), to meet my sister (maid of honor) and my mom for a fantastic weekend of dress shopping, shoe shopping, and just general New York fun and food. It'll be the first time my family's seen me since I've started losing weight and the first time anyone in my family will see me in a wedding dress.
I don't know about you guys, but I love Diner's Drive-Ins and Dives on FoodTV. So the FI and I went to Bizarro Italian last night (which was featured on the show a long time ago), and the food was fantastic. So happy. I love good food.
Best of all, the FI is here visiting for the weekend and hopefully our visa interview gets scheduled soon so he can move down and we can, at least, get legally married. ^^
Rave: We are going out to my parents this weekend, I am going to DIY the hoodies, we are going shopping for my Dad's suit and I have my hair trial!

I just got prescribed Topamax and it has been a lifesaver. I was on axert for years - it just had stopped working. Good luck! Migraines have to be one of the worst curses ever!!!
Rave - I'm finally almost done with my program. Or - the rough draft of my program. This has taken me forever and I'm hoping to get it done this weekend. We also finally chose a rehearsal dinner venue. Checks make me so happy!
Rant - the Husky game last night was pretty sad. Also, payday for me is on the 31st.....and i would like some money now to get some more stuff done this weekend!!
Oh yea...and the huskies lost!!
Rant: traffic was so bad last night that i didnt get home unitl 6:30, when I left before 5 and it usually takes me 20 mins to get home!! UGH!!
Feeling overwhelmed, not just wedding things, but have some sort of appt. every freakin day and I haven't had a chance to sleep in for two weeks. I am not a big sleep in person, but when I have to wake up against my will, I'm not happy.
Rave: Gma's birthday tomorrow, so I get to see my family. I always have fun with them! FI and I are going to his Dad's for a delicious dinner they are both preparing that they learned in a cooking class together. Woo hoo!
And it's the weekend, which I am very happy about in general.
I hope all you ladies have a great weekend! Try not to stress, any of you!
Rant: I guess that FI is not off work yet and we have to drive over 6 hours and we are still waiting to hear back from a job interview (even though they told us it would be a week or so. it's so hard to wait when your whole future depends on it. Deciding which job, area, rent or buy, my job, ect. -So much. Not that bad I guess..
I left work early today to spend time with FI, so we went to finally get me a new pair of pants to tide me over until I stop losing weight. I am down one more size than I thought I was. ^^ It's always a really great feeling.
Rant: Haven't spent much time with FI this week since sis is in town and starting work. Oh and he just vetoed my idea for 1st dance song (Have u ever really loved a woman) He totally has legitimate points, but i think it sounds beautiful on guitar which is what we are having at the wedding.
Rant: the day is almost over, boo
Rave: Got a lot accomplished today! Get to have sushi with my MOH tomorrow. I haven't seen her since the wedding. So excited.
