#blogjune Day 27 – whoopsie daisy

Last updated on 5 January 2018

Seems like my days are running away from me. Last week flew by and I haven’t posted for #blogjune in six days. Whoopsie daisy.

In my defence, here’s how last week went down….

Wednesday 22 June

• QUT project role – 8.30am to 4pm – catch ups, meetings, providing project updates, reviewing progress, identifying next steps.
• ordered bridesmaids earrings
• discovered I now have a full shuttle bus for the wedding – noted guest names for bus company.
• jotted down a few blog post ideas
• planned remaining wedding stationery requirements, such as how much more card I need to order for instagram signs, order of service, place cards and menus.
• attended a barre class
• watched State of Origin (in gym gear) at local brewery
• asked fiance if he’d looked over guest favour ideas

Thursday 23 June

• QUT project role – 8am to 4pm – meeting with supervisor, catching up on content development and storyboarding (basically, learning design work) and creating templates for content allocations to team, managed to catch last half hour of a staff leaving afternoon tea.
• cancelled wedding dance because fiance was feeling unwell
• walked from uni campus to fiance’s workplace (about 3km) as I needed the walk to clear my head
• reviewed orders for wedding florist and stylist over dinner (we’re hiring a bunch of furniture and decor stuff and paying someone to come set up and pack down for us – one of our best wedding planning decisions.)
• emailed confirmed orders and adjustments
• asked fiance if he’d looked over guest favour ideas

Friday 24 June

• housework and prepared guest room
• picked up friend from airport who flew down from Mackay for my hens weekend
• house tour, catch up on the back deck
• pub lunch near wedding dress place
• dress fitting and dress ‘do up’ tutorial; bridesmaid dress alterations
• West End for beers, more catching up (we don’t see each other often!) and waiting for fiance to finish work
• early dinner and bed (we are such Grandmas)
• asked fiance if he’d looked over guest favour ideas

Saturday 25 June and Sunday 26 June

• received orders for what to pack for hens
• received orders for departure time and meeting place
• picked up by sister in law and husband
• hens day, evening and night time activities – all fabulous!
• came home to discover fiance had done more washing, put together my side table for the printer and removed the remaining paint tape from my room
• recovery

Monday 27 June

So far…

• weekly review – where the heck am I at?!
• email tidy
• emailed a venue to book Sunday brunch after the wedding
• emailed fiance significant wedding songs to send to the band and create ‘in between sets’ playlists
• emailed photographer for album quotes and see if she’d be okay with a QUT film and TV student doing a video for his portfolio
• ordered a custom photo (Mum) wedding bouquet charm

Planned for the arvo…

• some research work
• train it to a barre class at West End
• cook dinner
• see what else I can knock over after dinner

Phew!
