Mourning the Loss of Life as I know it...

I am so excited about marrying the Boy in a mere 52 days! He is just an amazing man and I could rave about him for ages (but I won't because inevitably people will start gagging from all the mushiness). But honestly, I can't wait to start our life together.

Today I started the unenviable task of sorting through my crud. Since I will be moving halfway across the world, I can only bring so much with me. As I was going through my clothes I realized that 2/3's of what I own are summer clothes and that I will never have need for them in Scotland. It made me realize all the more, how different life will be, but more importantly that I am going to have to learn how to abide wearing close toed shoes!!! My poor toes are so used to living free in flip flops and sandals, and now after 23 years, they will be forced into a confined world of darkness, blisters and socks.


Now that I my wedding dress is altered (I pick it up on Friday!), I am feeling the pressure not to gain any weight. Of course, this means that I am craving all sorts of delectable and fatty foods. Normally I eat pretty healthy, but knowing I can't afford to gain weight triggers every naughty craving; brownies, cupcakes, and all things chocolate haunt my dreams. For like a week I have been eying a box of rainbow chip cake mix. While I resisted making the 24 cupcakes, I already gave in and ate a spoonful of the rainbow chip frosting.

I'll just have to make due with my 100 calories of carrots and hummus...
