Timeline: 6 Weeks until Aruba
I so can’t believe that in 6 weeks we’ll be in Aruba! Time is just flying. I didn’t post at 7 weeks because honestly I haven’t been getting much done. Part of it is waiting — waiting on answers from wedding planners. Another part of it is really procrastination. The invitations did come but still need to get in the mail. First they came without boxes. Then a couple days later the boxes came. Now I look at the boxes and think I can’t really label and send the box – really they need an envelope. So, now I need to go to the office supply to buy some envelopes and the craft store to get some raffia to tie around the boxes to hold the lid on. Taping them just doesn’t seem right. And then I’ll have to hand address the envelopes.
Accomplished this week:
- Ummm…. Hmmm??? Oh ya, ordered and received the CD sleeves
- Picked the first dance song
- Have a call this afternoon with the hotel wedding planner
- Got a pedicure that I hate to say wasn’t very good so I know to not go back before the wedding
- Got in 4 workouts!
Goals for this coming week:
- Get the invitations in the mail!!!!
- Saturday we’re working with someone to help us with the ‘first dance’. (I think I’m the whitest white girl ever with NO rhythm!)
- Figure out whether I still want to order the custom koozies – I had wanted to mail on to the wedding planner so she can let me know if their water bottles fit in them. I think they’re cute but my fiancé thinks they’re ‘girly’. Wanna talk about girly – have you seen the Hawaiian shirts some men will wear as well as flowered swim trunks?
- Figure out what I want to do for Welcome Bags (wait and hope the Palm Leaf bags will get back in inventory or select something different)
