Brides on a Mission: June

1. Weight loss/inches lost this week: recovering from cruise- at 153.8
2. Highlight of the past week: (not weight, just something exciting that happened): Got to show off my something blue- bought a tanzanite in the caribbean on my cruise. Lovin it!
3. Lowlight of the past week (not weight, just something that you need support with): Work has been ridiculously busy and our new commission structure means I'm not getting paid ANY commission for our two busiest months. I'd planned to pay some bills with these two paychecks and for my wedding band (which I bought in the caribbean also- awesome deals on Diamonds). Needless to say money is stressful... and both me and the fiance are feeling it. Not having the best effect on our reltaionship right now.
4. Any wedding news updates: I've decided since my wedding is outdoors to look into "fancy plastic" instead of renting china and utensils. We'll see if I change my mind back, but with my worries about money I'd rather have more money for the honeymoon and the stuff that lasts.

5. Weekly wrap up: I'd say the key word is frustration. Have found myself thinking "why do we need a wedding? why do we need to get married? Why can't I have my own apartment and we just remain happily commited to each other from afar? haha- I'm hoping something gets me excited again. By the way I tend to want to hide in a hole when I get stressed about money- so this isn't a rare experience for me...

@amandapratt: Two sizes down?!?! Holy Crap that is awesome!!! congrats!

@gainskb: Your wedding pics look amazing!!! Congrats!

I am back all! I am so glad that Amanda was able to take over the board! Thank you soooo much for keeping it going, I was really hoping somone would be able to

Well, I graduated from nursing school this past Saturday and I finally have a BSN!!!! I am still in study mode for the next 4-6 weeks; for state boards to get my RN licence. It is about 3-5 hours of studying per day, so not nearly intense as nursing school was.

My fiance is moving in on July 15! I am super excited and can't wait...I feel like I am waiting to leave for Disney World or something when I was a kid hahah :blushing: I have been waiting so long for this and I am just so in love and exicted to be roomies with my fiance finally!! We are very lucky....my mom is moving out of the townhouse her and I live in now and Greg will be moving in. We dont have to pay too much for rent. She wanted to be able to help us with something wedding related but she didn't have thousands of dollars to pay for the wedding. She is very happy to let us live in the townhouse! I will post pics after moving day :happy:

I am so glad to be back on track....my weight has stayed the same the past 3 weeks or so (between 156-158). I am ready to start loging again and getting my workout on 3 days a week! I have missed you all sooo much
