The start of a new season

My day started out with a pleasant stroll to Central Park, some time with a book, and a little bit of a schlaf. But upon returning home I got to work... laundry, cleaning, clearing out my e-mail inbox... all the sorts of things once does in preparation for a new season and a new outlook.

Labor Day is soon over and with it the end of Summer. I'm not sad though, I love the fall. More importantly, I love fall fashion! And next week does start New York Fashion Week... yay! Sweaters! Boots! Jackets! Oh, how I've missed thee! And so I digress... back to what I was getting at...

So summer is over. Fall is here. You get the picture. Rolling into the fall, I have two major priorities: #1 Job, #2 Wedding, #3 Project Honeymoon Bikini

#1 - Job
As mentioned in an earlier post, I've started a part-time consulting gig with a high-end fashion/beauty brand. A name I'm sure you'd all recognize... see past tweets for clues! It's going very well and it's nice to be back in an office at work. Even nicer is that I'm currently working 3 days a week, making the preparations for #2 much easier. I also still have a number of active interviews with several top fashion brands... I'm eager to turn one of these options into a full-time opportunity, although I will miss the part-time sched.

#2 - Wedding
So the plans have changed a bit and we are now planning a March 2010 wedding in Israel! I've managed to check off a few things from my list:

1 - Created a website: www.tamarandjonathan.com
2 - Got the dress!
3 - Registered

But I still would feel a lot better having the exact date/venue figured out. Which should happen soon... J's mom will be in Israel next week and is scoping out venues.

#3 - Project Honeymoon Bikini
Also on my wedding prep list which I plan on starting tomorrow, is Project Honeymoon Bikini. We don't yet have honeymoon plans, but it's going to be somewhere with a beach... and gosh-darn-it I want to look HOT! Not to mention that I wouldn't mind being a bit svelter for the wedding itself. Starting tomorrow I will be keeping a food journal. My goal is to cut down on white carbs, dairy, and dessert, and eat more fresh fruit + veggies. On the fitness side, I am planning to work out more. I'll be happy if I consistently workout 3-4 times a week for at least an hour each time.


So there you have it. Off to go put my white clothing in storage...
