Calm and crazed at the same time

colleenandshaun

Anyone else feeling completely calm at certain times and then kind of like a psycho at others?  My wedding is in 11 days and I know exactly what I have left to do and I know that I have enough time to get it all done so I'm not really worried about that. I think it's just that the wedding is finally almost here (!!!) after so much planning and waiting so I just want to finish everything up as IMMEDIATELY so I'm completely ready. Then other times I am calm as a cucumber.  I'm interested to see which personality takes over in the last few days before

I'm getting married Saturday and I've been strangely calm all week! There's just nothing left for me to take care of, so I'm relaxing til the big day

I'm such a procrastinator. I still need to get everything finished (odds and ends like welcome bags, packing, information for vendors) but with 4 days to go I'm just like "Eh... it'll get done!"

Moonlight your post stressed me out, haha! I want to be in Leisels situtation and relax the week before

OP I'm with you. 11 days out and I will have moments of serenity, my timeline for everything is all done and today I only have to tan (yay for only 1 thing!).. and then by tomorrow night I'll be in total freak out panic stresscase mode.

I know the day of I'm gonna be totally relaxed and happy as a clam. I feel like I'm cray cray.

Haha. This is SO me right now! I've got 3 days to go and still a few things to accomplish.

I'm not freaking about about WR stuff as everything is taken care of at this point, but I'm about to go ballistic with the stress of getting everything wrapped up at work. It's going to be worth it, but at this point I can't help but think that I will NEVER take a vacation again!! Working OT like a mad woman.

I'm done everything as well so i've been pretty relaxed. What's left are things I need to do tomorrow or the day before the wedding such as nails, pick up cookies for cookie bar, etc.
 Today I finally felt really excited about the wedding like it finally hit me. Especially tomorrow when I leave work early.

I took the opportunity this evening to finally put the new dishes and utensils away that I got from the bridal shower since I needed to wash it all.

I'm getting married Sat and had my last crazy busy day today. I would be fine if people would leave me alone and quit bugging me with things I can't control. My mother is causing more stress than the wedding. Today, after I dropped my dress off to be steamed, my MOH called to tell me she didn't like the placement of the straps (we added them). If she's that concerned, we can look at it Friday. It's just not that big of a deal to me.

I am literally just over it. I'm tired of planning, tired of dealing with people, and tired of wedding. I cannot wait for it to be over.

I think I am tired of spending money. I would like to buy a nice necklace to wear with my dress but I am not sure if I want to spend the money. I was really stressed 4 weeks before the wedding and then I calmed myself down for about 2 weeks then I had a mini anxiety attack this morning. I got over the attack rather quickly though and the rest of my day was much better. The boards on TK really has helped me through all the ins and outs of planning for my wedding as well as dealing with the emotional side of it. Thanks everyone! I know we will all be fine.

I'm freaking out a bit, not gonna lie. 10 days. TEN DAYS.

Another June 23 bride - we are down to 10 days now.  I am calm but hyper at the same time - it is an odd feeling.  My crazy mood was last week & the end of the week before.  I was horrible, probably the closest I have came to being a bridezilla & I wasn't one!  I am pretty set with everything & plan on relaxing as much as possible over the next 10 days.  I want EVERYTHING finished this week so I can do that. LOL  Too bad the 10 day forecast doesn't tell you about Saturday yet, one more day before I start stalking the weather report...  I don't know about anyone else but I am praying for mid to upper 70s with sun, but lots of white puffy clouds.  I don't want a cloudless sky since my eyes are so sensitive to the sun & we are taking a lot of pics outdoors.  I will probably have 90's, humid & not a cloud in the sky.. Ugh...

yeah, same feelings. I'm 11 days out too and every so often I have a freak out. I have been really distracted the last couple of days because my older sister and 2 of her kids are coming into town today so my mom has been going a little ballistic about getting the house ready and stuff. I procrastinated packing up my stuff to move to our new townhouse and now on top of everything else I have to do that. Which is stressing me out more then the wedding at this point. I feel like eh, whatever will be will be. As long as I walk down the aisle to FI I'm good!

OMG!  I came to the month of June board b/c I was feeling just like your post said...calm and crazed!  I knew this was the place to come as the time ticks down I feel more and more crazy, nervous, excited, annoyed and tired.  Last night I burst into tears over all the stress.  I am tired of dealing w/vendors and my pastor is being very strict about things I wanted.  

In so many ways I want it all to be done and I also know it will be a tad sad when it is.  On top of it all I am really trying to watch my spending, but I find myself saying well, I have already spent a ton, what's $50 more?  I have never had such an emotional rollercoaster!  I have had one or two calm days, but those were mostly the days I shut the whole thing out of my mind b/c I could no longer deal.  Today is a day I am focused and driven.  Guess I better get to work so I can tackle some more things and move towards a calmer demeanor, or at least try.
