Ugh. I ate too much over the holiday weekend. I need to focus on this wedding! I think a nice detox with no alcohol (except for the Derby) for the next 6 weeks may be a good thing. Justin and I went to Blacksburg over the weekend. Well, actually we left at 5AM on Saturday morning. We woke up with an inch of snow and I-66 was a SHEET of ice. It wasn't the best experience either of us has had. Then we had our final pre-marriage counseling session, which went well and then we just ate a lot and spent time with family/friends. I am exhausted.

Wedding details are getting down to few. And our RSVPs are rolling in. Exciting!!! My aim today is to decide if we should have a cake topper. I looked for a hokie bird topper and it was $150...that is just NUTS! I do not want a cake topper that is worth that much....that is more than the bridesmaid dresses!!

I went to the doctor last Thursday and he said that my MCL wasn't really healing. We discussed surgery and he said he would not do surgery before the wedding because if I had surgery this week I would only have 6 weeks to heal and he could not promise I would be able to walk down the isle. So it looks like June I may be going under the knife. The doctor told me I could get on a stationary bike with zero resistance just to increase my range of motion. So I did that Saturday along with situps/pushups. I took my brace off afterwards and my entire knee/leg was this incredible purple color. It was definitely the worst bruising I have had since the injury. Even my family was mildly impressed by the bruising. So I guess I did a little too much. Back to icing and resting, maybe I'll try to get on the bike for a few minutes later on this week.

At least my immobilizer is something blue...
