1. I am headed home today once again. It is basically going to be an almost weekly occurence. There is just too many things to do with vendors closer to the wedding site – and it makes sense to hang out with the fam for any evening and stay the night. On today’s agenda: Meeting with the florist to go over some final details.

2. I am shocked that it is July 6. It is also a Friday. This means my wedding is 5 weeks away. 5 weeks. My blood pressure just sky rocketed.
3. I’ve never been one to take vitamins or supplements. The only time I ever took a multi was when I had the gummy vitamins. But I want to change that. So I stocked up last week.. and am ready to go with a multi-vitamin, Fish Oils, BCAAs, and a Zinc/Magnesium supplement.

I figured I might have trouble remembering to take these each day – so I got an old person pill thing.

I am on day two.. and going strong.
4. Yesterday, Justin’s coworker and his fiance came over. They are getting married two weeks after us. I am now ready to print my own ceremony programs and menus. I was honestly just going to completely forgo these due to the crazy cost that a company would charge you. I am also ready to make my own place cards! I can print on these – so they will look all professional and can be done in the blink of an eye.

5. In order to do all of this, we had to purchase a new printer. Our old one sucked. It honestly sucked since the day we bought it. It never aligned. We should have brought it back. We never did. Two years past. I think we kind of missed that train.

$89 later.. and we are all ready to print..wirelessly and from our iPhones!
6. Sometimes I do things for no reason. I did that yesterday. I decided I was going to do a treadmill run. I felt really good and decided I would run 8 miles. It was an arbitrary number. But once I set that number.. I had to get there. I knew the treadmill would shut off before I finished, so I planned on taking a potty break at 5 miles. However, at mile 3.34, I felt like my bladder was about to explode.. so I split it up that way.

I would have preferred to do a longer run outside. But it was to stinkin’ hot!
Alright.. weekend mode (or every day mode. I am on an extended weekend until the end of August!)

Do you take vitamins and supplements? What do you take?
What’s the longest you’ve ever run on a treadmill?
Did my keys happen to show up on your door step? Because the sure haven’t shown up at the gym!

what are you doing for your centerpieces? I have been looking at ideas everywhere!
We aren’t doing anything fancy. Just a small square cube with flowers in it.. purple and white – to match the bouquets.. but within the limited budget we are using on flowers. FLowers are something I am SUPER into – so I could really care less. It is a detail I kind of let pass by. I am also making my own table numbers with a personal touch on them – so they will be a main feature on the table as well!
Do you have a florist yet? THey helped me a ton with ideas!
I take a a daily multi-vitamin, a calcium supplement, fish oil, and a supplement called Co-Q10. The longest run I did on a treadmill was 4 miles. However, I once walked 16 miles on a treadmill when I was training for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer walk.
Kimberly @ Redefining Kim recently posted..I Have An Announcement to Make…..
Seems like I may be on the right track as far as my supplement choices!
I may look into the Co-Q10 – a number of people have mentioned it!
16 treadmill miles? That must have taken quite a long time! I did such a POOR job training for Susan G. I think the longest training walk I did was like 8 miles. It ended up working out okay though!
The 16 miles took around 4.5 hours. In order to keep from being totally bored, I watched a few movies via NetFlix. My hubby had hooked his laptop up to a 19 inch flat screen, just for my training. He also came in to talk with me thru out the walk. But I never, ever, ever want to walk 16 miles on a treadmill again.

I hate when a bathroom break interrupts my workout! It almost always does though. Getting old… LOL!
I take a TON of supplements now that I’m training – fish oil, BCAAs, L-Glutamine, Magnesium, Iron, Vit D, Vit C, B6 and B-12, Juice Plus (multi), Collagen, Glucosamine, Zinc… I think that’s it…
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table recently posted..Simply Happy Its Friday
Hahah! I love the “getting old”comment. Too true! I should have went before I started.. I knew I had to but I though I’d be able to hold it. Dumb!
Buying a new printer and all that paper is still cheaper than having a company print your things… I know! I just finalized our wedding invitations and will do the programs and cards in a month. I take a multi vitamin and magnesium every night. Dr. Oz said on a show that you should cut your vitamins in half and take one half in the morning and the other at night. I just take it at night and figure it is better than not taking it at all!
Holly @ Pink-Runner.com recently posted..Inspired by Pinterest
Yeah.. ugh. Stationary is EXPENSIVE> I was shocked to find that ordering our invites at a local printer was about half as much as ordering from Wedding Paper Divas. or another other place online! We were able to get the raised print and everything – it worked out much better!
A few of my vitamins are taking multiple times a day.. not the multi though! And I don’t cut it in half. You are so right though.. taking it at all is better then nothing!
Hey Cait! Love the new blog look

The longest treadmill run I’ve ever done has been 45 minutes….although I have a feeling it’s going to soon become longer than that with the heat and humidity coming this summer! yuck.
Happy Friday!

Hey girl! Happy Friday!
Yes – the heat and humidity definitely have been keeping my runs indoors! My runs in the winter tend to be treadmill though.. too! It is sad to think there is only a small portion of the year where there is actually perfect running weather! ahah
Your wedding is so soon!! I am super excited for you
Have fun at home!!
Oh no! Still haven’t found your keys! I’m sure they’ll turn up. Longest I’ve ever run on the treadmill was 6 miles, and it was pretty boring! But you’re right, way too hot to run outside unfortunately. Gotta do what you gotta do!

I have been taking Glucosamine Chondroiton (I suck at spelling!!!) for my knees because my joints are so messed up…but I have a hard time remembering. Maybe I need an old person pill thingy like you!
Caitlin @ ArtemisPrimeWellness recently posted..Hike of The Month: June
I really need that old person pill thing. I usually forget! I take probiotics, vitamin d, zinc and multivitamin if I ever remember, and BCAA!
Brittany @ GOtheXtraMile recently posted..Premier Protein Review and Giveaway
The old person pill thing apparently isn’t even enough for me. I left the whole damn thing in my condo..and I am at my parents house. Womp
Ahhh, wedding planning – brings back memories! As stressful as it can get, enjoy every moment of it. I love being married, but I wish I still had a wedding to plan.
my boyfriend’s massage therapist suggested he buy the CMZ for sore muscles, but i actually end up stealing them most of the time! i think they definitely help when i’m extra sore from a new workout.
Oh that sounds good! Does it will with the repair of the muscles? Sometimes..I like that really sore feeling after a new work out. It is worth it and makes me feel like I know I was working hard!
I seriously can’t get over that it is already July – feels like I just got out of school :\
Enjoy some time at home!!
Kailey recently posted..Sweet Raspberry Ricotta Spread
Yes. Totally feel like I just got out of school..but at the same time I feel like I have been on vacations for a while. I am feeling good and know that in 8 weeks, I’ll be good and rested for the new school year!!!
ahhh hope you have a nice relaxed weekend~:D You will need it. And I don’t take much stuff except a multivitamin a day, and every now and then some holistic type stuff, especially if my mom goes on her “health doctor” mode (all Asian esp. Korean moms are like that
)!

Hahah.moms arew always doing whatever they can to stay on top of us…huh? It is all out of love though!
Ahhh such an exciting 5 weeks you have ahead of you!
Nikki recently posted..TGIF
Exciting…yes. I am trying to keep myself int the right mind frame so I actually enjoy them. I will miss them when they are gone I am sure (though that currently seems impossible)
We made our own menus, table card display, and programs. Definitely an area you can cut costs on AND make more personal. Way to go

5 weeks?? AH that’s so stinkin close girl!!! Ehh the anticipation
I cannot believe your keys are still a no show… it’s like they randomly grew legs and just walked off!
The longest I’ve ever run on a TM was for 14 or 15 miles.. I forget which one it was.
jessie recently posted..Our Mini-Vacation
Wow …14 or 15 miles seems like a pretty big accomplishment!! Did you ebreeak MIT up or did you go straight through??
Yes..stupid missing keys are giving me stress when i really don’t need anymore!
Have a great weekend!!!!
I went straight through. For some reason, treadmill runs never seem to bore or bother me @ all.
Hope your having a stress-free weekend <3

i take a multi, flaxseed oil pill (omega-3s), and calcium. it was hard for me to remember at first, but now it’s just part of my morning routine!
Ashley @ My Food ‘N’ Fitness Diaries recently posted..Friday Night = Pizza Night
I once ran 19 miles on a treadmill. LOL.
I used to try and take a daily multivitamin, but I could never remember – maybe I need one of those pill thingies too!
And I hear ya on the heat – I’m not there now, but back home it’s been in the triple digits. Miserable!!
