Wedding countdown is at 18 freaking days today. In some ways that feels really short, and in other ways really long.
To say I am feeling pretty amped up would be an understatement. I stayed up past midnight on Sunday night searching the internet for the *perfect* colour of baker's twine for the s'more kits... I'm not good with being wired and busy all the time, so I decided I really need to practice a few daily routines to make sure I don't get rundown and wind up sick or sad.
I am going to make damn sure I get to bed and actually get to sleep before 10. Chamomile tea or a warm almond milk, comfortable temperature room, bedtime routine, deep breathing. This is SO important!
Next is to make sure I get in some sort of activity every day. A walk, some stretching, an actual workout, a bike ride. Something! A time just for me, to clear my mind. No thinking of anything except how pretty it is outside or how good the movement is for me.
Another thing I need to do for my sanity is to work on something wedding every day. That sounds weird and obsessive but if I don't do some small task I think I'll feel like I'm falling behind. The s'more wedding favors are a huge undertaking so they are something I'm going to chip away at daily, among other things.
Lastly is the obvious, stay hydrated and fed.
I haven't been taking the time to prep cook but last night I finally cooked up a whole tray of chicken breasts, some sweet potatoes, and some gluten free macaroni. This takes care of at least a portion of my breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. I also baked a really delicious snack option, click here for recipe!! Once I got cooking I felt so happy!! Love being in the kitchen :) cooking and baking are two things I should not neglect.
