 Hey guys, it's Sunday. I have been sort of in a tizzy, you know, all day. I shot two videos and I deleted them. I didn't get ready with me. I tried to do it all over again, and I deleted them. They just came out so really really bad, really bad. I've also been trying to go through my clothes for the wedding and my shoes and to make sure that I had, you know, everything that I felt comfortable with everything and I'm getting nervous because I am the officiant of the ceremony and I'm still fine tuning the ceremony. So I want it to be perfect and I'm afraid that I'm just gonna cry when I start to read the the ceremony and even though I wrote 90% of it, I want it. I just need to really really memorize it better, you know, recite it better and I need to somehow be able to control. Sorry, I keep looking. I'm not used to this new vlogging camera. I keep looking over here instead of here, but I'm just like so afraid I'm gonna start to cry. And I, you know, I don't want to cry. So happy Sunday guys. This is the wedding week. Tomorrow night I have a hair appointment. Tomorrow morning, Monday morning, I go for my annual physical and my blood work and all that. I did have my mammogram done last week. That came back good, so I'm really relieved about that. I don't know about my bone density yet. I haven't heard but I'll probably find out tomorrow morning and then tomorrow night's my hairdressers. Tuesday, I'm working remotely at a Portsmouth because I'm teaching up there. Wednesday, I'm back in Londonderry. Wednesday night. I have a pedicure and a manicure with my mother and she's probably just gonna have a manicure, but I'm hoping she has a pedi. I've never had a pedi in her life and I think it'd be kind of cool for her to do that. So that's the scoop, guys. Hey guys, happy Tuesday. It is actually the 20, the 25th. I did go to the hairdressers last night and she had my roots and touched up, cut, cut me some longer layers and and I like it. My hair is, she did a few highlights, not a whole lot because I still have a lot of summer blonde in my hair. Winter, my hair is usually darker, so maybe she'll do some some low lights or something at one point. But woke up this morning is 63 degrees inside the house. Not fun. And then this weekend, I know, you know, we've been talking about the wedding. When I come home tonight, I'm more, I'm heading to Portsmouth to teach and then I'm gonna go do a part of a home inspection on a house, you know, for my son. And so I'm gonna relieve Jay. He's gonna do the first part. I'm gonna do the second part and I'm really excited about the opportunity for my son. Hopefully it'll go through and it'll be good. But when I come home tonight, depending if it's early enough, maybe I'll try on some of my my two outfits because I have an outfit for Friday night rehearsal dinner and then I have an outfit for Saturday and the wedding is Saturday. So Friday night rehearsal dinners, I really love the top. It's sort of like really fun, you know, type of top and I probably will just kind of twist my hair up on Friday where it, you know, kind of very more different. Sunday, I think I'm going to try to do a bunch of curls and then pin it up a little bit in areas and then I have like these little rhinestone accents that my hairdresser gave me that you kind of like almost like a little, like a little corkscrew, you kind of like screw it into hair. So I was thinking of just pinning parts of my hair up and you know, when wearing it up like that for the wedding on Saturday, Saturday is gonna be really fun. The wedding is on top of the mountain. I know I've mentioned before we have to take a gondola or gondola ride up there and the rehearsal dinner on Friday is on top of the mountain too and Sunday we're gonna do ziplining. If I don't check it out. So so that's the plan. So if I get home early enough and might set up the camera, might try on my outfit, see how they fit and I won't hit my hair fix or anything, but if I do that, I'll film some of it and then just add it into this clip. I am not too sure. I think I'm gonna try to publish this before we go away because it'll get too long if I start to add wedding weekend clips and all that. So that's the plan so far. We'll see what I do tonight and I'll catch you guys later. Hey guys, so I just got home. It's like 544. I got caught out in the rain at a home inspection and it you know, just took a lot longer. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go ahead because I want to try on my my wedding outfit. So I'm gonna go ahead and try on my wedding outfits. These are the baggy the wide leg pants. Of course, I'll put my hair up and fix my makeup, but I'm really liking this top. So let me show you the earrings. These are the earrings that I want to wear with this. Aren't they pretty? And I wasn't gonna wear a necklace because I think this is glittery enough. So that's those earrings and So this is for the rehearsal dinner. I mean, I think it'll be okay. What do you think? I love these earrings. These are so pretty. These were more money than I wanted to spend, but they're really really pretty. So I just think But you know, I'll take I'm gonna take this necklace off. So no necklace But I just think with these earrings with with all the really nice rhinestones and then the two-cultured pearl drops. I Think that'll be enough. You know, I really do. So this is the The wedding day outfit You know again, I'm officiating the ceremony. So I wanted to be I Wanted to look nice, but I also, you know wanted to be more I was worried about wearing black at weddings But I don't think that really much matters nowadays So, you know wanted to look nice But I didn't want to be over the top Because when I'm standing up there get the bride of the groom in front of me and then I have everyone watching me as I am you know performing the ceremony and I wrote most of the service With you know, not the vows they did their own vows, but the most of the service and then they tweaked it a little bit So it's gonna be really very much custom. So this I love them the detail on the jacket. This is just basically you know very light material and Really pretty and I think the skirt is really pretty. I'm gonna have my toes done tomorrow So let me just hold up my shoes These are the ones I think I've shown So these are the ones I'm planning on wearing. Hopefully I can Survive them But that's the scoop on what I was wearing for shoes And what I was wearing for my outfit So I I kind of feel funny. I'm in my kitchen and you know, as you can see, it's it's the only space I could think of where I could maybe show you a little bit What this looks like so And as a backup for my hair if those little Twisty things don't work and I really can't curl my hair nicely I do have this pretty comb. This is a really nice little fancy dressy comb I bought all of this off of amazon. So And this state has stayed in my hair so far. So who knows Who knows who knows who knows But but that's the scoop guys, you know, that's the outfit So the plan is and I think I already mentioned that this is about a three hour ride So we're going to leave really super early on Friday morning with my mom and dad and pick them up And we're hoping to get up there You know, maybe around noon time or 11 o'clock depending on how many stops we make We're staying in a two-bedroom Sweet so to speak or like unit, you know with Ann Justin My Jason Justin is going to already be there because he's arriving on thursday We're not getting up there till friday. It's it's I just think it's going to be a blast and I'm Very much looking forward to it. I really am and Just to have the the our three boys together with their significant others and wife It's just going to be really touching because we've not ever had all three of the boys with Their you know people in their life because my youngest son michael's married So my daughter and laudina will be there and michael and then my oldest son marty has a girlfriend And we've met her this year and we're getting to really know her. I really like her a lot And then my stepson justin and we've met her we've been you know together. They came out here this summer We went to meet them for a baseball game I like all the women in my sons and stepson's lives and I think that's really awesome And for all of us to be together with my mother and father, which are the grandparents I just think is super special and my sister and all her three daughters will be here And they're you know two of her daughters are already married one has a baby So the whole the whole family is going to be Together and The marriage the ceremony is going to take place on the top of sunday river in main We're going to take the gondola Right up to the top In the ceremony is saturday afternoon, but i'm hoping that you know the sun will be somewhat In a different position in the sky so we can take some really awesome pictures And it's just going to be super super special and I think I mentioned that on sunday I'm doing a zipline and jay's going to do the zipline too So I it's just going to be really super awesome I know many of you have asked to see what i'm going to be wearing You know if I would share that and so you know, I Hopefully this will see the light of day. I did do the get ready with me and I did publish it I actually did it twice the second time the next day. I refilmed it And the problem is is I just don't have the right position for the tripod in the camera So half the time, you know, I'm like this And then uh, then you know what I mean? So then I'm like down and you're getting a bullseye view of the of the top of my head Which is not the best view anyways, but so and then I was like, oh, how can I do that? And I was like talking a mile a minute through most of it And I'm like, you know going from one theme to another to another topic and and I had a little vent I really shouldn't record myself when I vent But it was like just one thing after another So I will try another get ready with me, but I have to master The position of this camera like right now And also a mirror so I can see because you know because like I can't really go that close to look in the viewfinder thing to see But you know until I master that I just I just um, I don't know and plus I I I stink and get ready with me. That's not my strong point. You know, I'm not a I'm not uh, you know, I'm learning So, you know, I don't really know yet fully everything of what I'm doing So I'm just experimenting with my eyes with my makeup like right now. You're seeing me at the end of a very long day I got caught in the rain. My hair is bone straight even though I went to the hairdressers last night It looked really good when it was fixed But when I got caught in the rain it just everything went flat So you're seeing me at my worst the end of the day Most of my makeup is gone. I just put a little lipstick on I don't even know how that looks But I just wanted to I I guess I wanted to do a little more of you So be gentle on me. Yes. I'm overweight Yes, you know, I'm an old lady But uh, I'm trying and uh, and you know, I'm trying to lose weight. I'm trying to to you know, take off some pounds and I just hate the idea of having to Decide between my bum and my face But the more weight you lose the more your face falls You know kind of catches up to your rear end. So I just think that's so unfair Oh in another thing I have a um This if this if I publish this abbreviated vlog with nothing exciting except a few clips We are leaving on I might publish this tomorrow Wednesday night if I get it edited Because tomorrow night I'm going to my nail salon and all that but I am Not going to probably be really good at answering any comments over the weekend Because I'm going to be super super busy. So if this goes public wednesday I'll have some of thursday to answer but if it goes public thursday friday morning, we're gone And so there's not going to be an opportunity and I also want to tell you I appreciate all your comments on my previous video About in with the blink giveaway. I am loving the blink right now I have one coat of mascara on my eyes When I do two coats and I really go for it. My lashes are like wow So I'm really loving the results. I'm getting from the blink. Is it the same as care post? Yes So, you know, if you prefer care post go for it The only difference that I've seen between care post and the blink for me And this may never happen to you. It may not be anything you ever see because All our you know, we all react react to things differently But my natural eyelashes when I have taken all my My mascara off and everything my natural eyelashes have gotten darker and that Is the biggest difference that I've noticed other than that the growth the thickness, you know seem to be the same But I have naturally darker lashes without mascara and that kind of blows me away Because I've never ever really had that. So I think that's really really cool So yeah, I wonder now if I should have gotten I did see a really thin kind of like rhinestone. I'm looking at my My thank my neck and I'm thinking when this is gone. Do you think it's too bare? But get to remember I'm gonna have I'm gonna have really pretty earrings on So I thought the earrings I thought that would be just fine without a necklace So anyways guys if there's more to this it'll be just a little glimpse of my mom and I getting you know Whatever you usually can't film in the nail salon. So probably won't be adding any But if there is you'll see that but if not, I just want to say thank you all so much for your support Your understanding, please be sure to thumbs up the video and leave me a comment And I will get back to you at one point and next week.
