"Oh you've got plenty of time"

On occasion I can be a procrastinator! Yes, it's true (especially when it came to school work)! BUT when it's a project I'm in charge of or if others are depending on me, I'm one to get things done and to be organized. I would almost say it is a little annoying as to how organize I can be! hmm, maybe.

This leads me to the phrase "you've got plenty of time". Yes, I do have ..oops, WE have time- 8 months and some change. BUT, look at it this way, I'm going through my formal evaluation year for teaching (which adds stress to my life daily wondering when and if I will be observed today) and come January, I've got to start out in my adventure of trying to find a job teaching in Columbia. That is kind of a lot on one's plate. Granted, it's only 2 things, but they are pretty big things! So what?! I'm getting things done earlier so I won't freak out later! I think it's good to have all the little things done ahead of time and even a lot of the major ones! PLUS it's way too much fun planning so I figured, I might as well get things done while I'm not drowning in work and while I have the energy to do it! :o)

On a wedding planning..(well, sort of) note. I joined the gym! AND it's whipping my butt! I've been at it for a week now. I do cardio 3 days a week, weights 2 days (so I can whoop up on Brendan when he's driving me mad...I kid! I kid!), and I do yoga 1 day a week. By the way, this does not add up to me working out 6 days a week. Those who know me, know good and well that I like my down time! I do cardio on both days I do weights. Okay, I'm confusing myself, Mondays-yoga, Tues.-cardio and weights, Wed.-Cardio, Thurs.-Cardio and weights.
SO you may ask "Why Jenn, why would you ever join the gym with your ever-so nice figure that has even the super models drooling with envy?" HA!!! That was a joke in case you're thinking I'm vain.

Well, the dress has been bought. The dress. The dress. The dress. I am trying to get fit not only for THE dress on THE day but for THE bathing suit on THE honeymoon and THE summer that follows the honeymoon and THE life that follows the honeymoon. BUT back to the dress. I cannot gain an ounce in order to fit into this dress or my mother may just fall out! It was discontinued so the dress in the store was the dress I had to get and it fit, but it fit WELL. So well that no more weight is allowed. I would rather have it taken in anyways. SO wish me luck as my body feels like jello from all the weights so that I may look stunning on such a momentous occasion such as our wedding.
