Wedding from Hell and Weekend update.

Finally getting a chance to post. It's been crazy busy these last few days. I'm still a bit tired from the weekend. Friday I got up early and did some work that I needed to finish. I didn't work out Friday morning because I was super sore from that really hard workout on Thursday.

I did clean up the house a bit and load the car so that counts for some activity. We drove to Oklahoma and MAN is it hot there. Super duper hot. We had the wedding to attend Friday night.  It was a nice wedding right up until one of the most uncomfortable experiences in my life.

So I'm sitting on the potty doing my business when I hear someone storm into the restroom followed by some other people. I hear, "This is my day and I KNEW I shouldn't have invited them. F*** them." And then sobbing and then lots of other people rushing in and talking Then the door slams and the walls of the stall shake really bad.  The Mom comes in and she and the bride start to go at it. So I'm sitting there with this dilemma: Do I sit there until it's over and risk them thinking I was trying to eaves drop on their private business? OR Do I flush and get out as quickly as possible?

 I chose the latter. I flushed and rushed out. I had to wash my hands which means I had to get by the entire wedding party. It was so uncomfortable. Then I rushed back to the reception. It was the weirdest wedding ever. Then for about 40 min the entire wedding party was gone. Finally the bride came back in and about 30 min later she was dancing with her Mom like the fight never happened. Wow.

On the bright side the reception was held in The Sooner Room at Sooner Legends Hotel. This WHOLE hotel is decorated in Sooners memorabilia. We got to see tons of it. That was great!

 
And I caught a glimpse of my legs in the mirror in the restroom, prior to the "incident". They look pretty good if I do say so myself. See how I'm starting to get good definition in my muscles.

The wedding was an evening wedding, so we had dinner before. We ended up at Billy Sim's BBQ. It is soooo good. I had a small baked potato and turkey. YUMMY.  Then at the reception I had none of the appetizers and no cake and no alcohol. Just water. I did very well that day.

Needless to say I felt right at home in this place!

HAD to get this shirt. "Longhorn. It's what's for dinner." CLASSIC!

On Saturday, I woke up early and went for a walk/run. It was hot and I had trouble breathing so it was more walk than run, but I enjoyed it. Then we went to the farmers market where I picked up some tomatoes, peaches and an Israel melon. I had never had one. Have you? It is kind of like a cantaloupe, but a little milder and it is nearly white in color. The kids loved it!

Then we went to see Harry Potter 7 part 2.  The movie was great, but I was pretty sad. Well, that's an understatement. Call me a sap, but I cried through nearly the whole thing.  I think they did a good job on the movie, but if you didn't read the book you missed out on some of the important characters that died because it was just a quick battle. But, over all we loved the movie. That night we got a grown up dinner out with my cousins. I did well with the eating, but after dinner we went out for drinks to a bar where they have karaoke. We didn't do it, but we find it hillarious to laugh at the drunkards who do. There I had a few drinks which wasn't too great and a lot of water.

Sunday I woke up and was super sore from running and sitting on the wooden bar stool for a few hours so I didn't exercise. But we packed up and headed back home. Hot hot hot! Traffic wasn't bad and we made good time. Then I had to do some shopping. Ugh. I wasn't in the mood. I hate shopping when you HAVE to go.




I'm super sore today because I trained with the trainer yesterday. A very good and hard workout. We focused on core and arms yesterday.  I had TKD today and we did many crunches and push ups and MAN it hurt. Now I'm super sore!   I weighed in yesterday and I'm down 1 pound from last week, but still up 4 from before. I'll slowly get that 5 back off. At least I'm off the steroids for now.

After TKD, I had to go for an office portrait with my co-workers.  Can I say how much I HATE getting my pic done? Especially with high maintenance picky people. Ugh.  I needed something to wear because I had nothing suitable and THAT's why the forced shopping trip on Sunday.  I did find a couple of professional looking shirts and I think the pics turned out OK.  I'll post one of me when I get them.

I've been trying to read and catch up on my blogs so you should see some comments from me. If not, know that I AM reading. I hope your week is going well. What workouts have you been up to lately? How do you feel about getting professional portraits done? To me it is just SUCH a whipping!
