The Crud

   
     This is how I have felt all week. I really thought I was getting better yesterday. Then, after dinner last night, I felt like I ran face first into an oncoming semi. Ok, maybe that's a little dramatic, but I did sleep for 12 1/2 hours last night. I couldn't tell you the last time I did that. I did sleep pretty well, though, so it was worth it. Still not feeling great this morning, but I'm sitting at the student center at UNC getting ready to study some more microbiology. This is the school where my college career started... 15 years ago. I swear if I did as much studying here then as I do now I would have been golden! But... I would not be where I am today getting ready to go into the career that I love.
     3 weeks from today we are heading to Vegas! I can't wait to see all of our friends (family, really!) that live there. And I am excited to see if the place that I have found for the wedding is going to work for us!
     I tried on THE DRESS again last weekend and am proud to say that in a 4 week time span I was able to go from not zipping the dress up at all to getting it half way zipped! That was very encouraging, and I love this dress more and more every time I see it.
     I didn't get much gym time in at all this week because of this cold. (Sorry I have been a horrible workout buddy this week Stacey... )The upside is that I have had absolutely no appetite, so luckily I don't think it has hindered any progress. Although, we ate out A LOT this week because I had absolutely no motivation to come home from work and cook this week. I am hoping to get back in the gym tomorrow, and plan on making a food plan tonight with Roger for the week ahead. 8 more weeks until the cruise... and still plenty of time to get to a place where I can relax, have fun, and not worry about the way I look while we are there.
     I am excited for the week ahead and to start feeling human again! Lots of progress yet to be made!
