business as usual


So I figured I havent written an actual blog right in a while so I thought it was time. I've been really busy lately with work, school, fighting off sickness and what not..so here's an update. Last weekend was amazing. I was supposed to go out of town but it didnt work out. However it was awesome because I got the apartment to myself for a few days and it was totally worth it. I hadn't been alone in so long..it was like a refresher for me. Friday after work Lee headed to NC for a wedding. I didn't go with because A: John was coming in from NY as Lee's date and B: I had to work Saturday. AND it was the perfect weekend to work because it was somewhat rainy so I was cool with it. Friday nite I made myself some dinner and watched a couple of scary movies alone in the dark!! I know right??? Needless to say I checked all the doors and closets before I went to bed and slept with a knife beside my bed..haha! It was so relaxing! The next I woke up and headed to work for a bit and afterwards came home/showered/cleaned before I headed off to Davids Bridal with Hope! I wanted to find a dress for the wedding and rehearsal dinner in Nov. I had found two on-line that I liked. I tried them both on..they fit perfectly! AND were a size smaller than I thought they would be!! YAY!! One of them has to be ordered because its not the color I want but the other one I bought and took straight home! I cant wait for Lee to see me in it! :) We headed over to the mall for some much needed shopping..I wanted to pamper myself with some new clothes and smelly goods...WELL i couldn't help myself..I ended up shopping ONLY for Lee! I didn't buy one thing for myself. He deserves it for being such an amazing boyfriend and putting up with me. At least I've gotten most of his Christmas shopping outta the way!
I've been going to the tanning bed again. I know I know its bad! But, I want to be a little tan for the wedding so I dont look like a ghost in all the pictures. I'm actually getting tan suprisingly fast this year. I haven't been to the tanning bed since July of 2007! So I'm pretty pleased with myself for going that long..i know i know I shouldn't go..but I'm not an addict..I'll pace myself!
Lee and I still haven't carved our pumpkins..stay tuned for that mess of fun.
School is almost over for the semester..I can't believe it!! I only have a few weeks left! YAY!
Last Sunday, Lee's mom came in to Roanoke with her new beau, Craig. This was my first time meeting him! His sister in law was having an open house at a little antique store downtown. We browsed the shop and had mimosas and yummy food from alexanders. I wasnt feeling well but that mimosa perked me up! It was a great way to spend a sunday nite. I really liked Craig alot. He's a Pharmacist!! Wow..takes my back to the good (BAD) ol days at walgreens...ahhHHH!
So I MUST tell you about the wedding Lee went to! He called me from the wedding just to tell me how awesome it was! He said it was small..simple..but full of so much love (yes lee's words!) He said it was the best wedding he's ever been too..and trust me..Lee has been to some good ones! He said that he wanted his wedding to be just like it. DONT worry.. I got LOTS of great ideas!! Is it sad that I have pretty much planned my entire wedding but am not even engaged?! hahahaha...its ok though..I'm not too worried ;)
I've been getting up at 515am to work out!! AND i started weight watchers..Im gradually losing weight..but not as much/fast as I hoped..my weight fluctuates because im good all week and then on the weekends lee and i treat ourselves (probably a little too much) So im going to the gym before work (EARLY) and after work..i dont even know how i find time to eat!! Wish me luck
Anywho..Thats all thats been going on with me.
I want to give my condolences to my friend and her boyfriend and family. They suffered a terrible loss this past Sunday. Im praying for you guys still..I know this is hard but you're a strong couple/family and I know you'll get through this!
Also to a couple of friends from the past..we've had our ups and downs and we dont really talk anymore..I guess thats what happens when you have a huge falling out. However..the did FINALLY tie the knot this weekend and I want to wish them the best. I'm genuinely happy for them and I know they will make it! I'm sure they'll have dozens of beautiful babies too (maybe not dozens) but I just want them to know that Lee and I were both thinking about them. (they probably wont read this..but..you never know)
AND ONE LAST THING.... VOTE OBAMA!!!! please :) LOVE: lee and meg
