    LOL!!! GIRL, I haven't sent out A! Please pray for me! The past 2 weeks, I've had NO motivation! Like... I've done NOTHING! I just really don't care any more. REALLY! I just bought ink today for my printer to print the RSVP cards. I'm going to Michael's in a few when I leave work to get some glue dots. My RSVP cards are going under the ribbon, but they won't stay in place, so I'll be using glue dots... or something. THEN, I'll be done! Oh and print out labels for Babe's guest list. SO, I should get all this done tonight... if I feel like it, which I prolly won't! lol. UGH! I'm ready for this to be over.

    And let's talk about my BM/lil sister, who as of last Tuesday, hadn't ordered her dress. I told her mama that at this point, IDK when's the latest she can order it and it get here on time, and I don't care!!!

    What else do you have to accomplish? I'll give you my list when I get home. I was supposed to make a new one while here at work but didn't.

    Aww.... man. I will be praying for you. I need to become a prayer warrior like your husband.  His prayers were awesome during those conference calls.

    I dont even think I have made a list.  Ive been going by what others have done or need to do to figure out what I have left. Im like you. I am soooooooooo over all of this.  After sending out my invites (had my parents hand deliver to save money) I realized that the wedding is more for my father and less for me and FI. So now I have in my mind I just want to say my vows, get the first dance in, and be out.

    As of now I need:

    • cardbox or birdcage (may forego the box cause I think it would be time consuming)
    • transportation
    • centerpiece
    • get my dress altered
    • pray BM's dresses come in
    • ceremony and reception outlined
    • escort cards or poster
    • Bride and Groom Sign for our chairs in the reception
    • Signs for the road to direct them to the right direction
    • favors (may nix this too)
    • church decor (most likely doing pew cones)
    • flower girl pomander ball
    I may be missing a WHOLE LOT OF STUFF but at this point I really dont care.
    Maybe if I see your list Ill know where I need to be.

    Babe said thanks! I didn't know you were on there! Gosh, my AA Knotties were in full effect!

    As of now, this is what I've come up with:
    - Card box {need to glue boxes together and bows on them. Abt to do now.}
    - Print RSVP cards, put in invitations, put in envelopes.
    - Print remainder of wrap around labels
    - Food and cake tasting... or at least pick some food and cake
    - If cake is nasty like someone told me, put deposit at the bakery I wanted
    - Buy sand ceremony stuff, if I even wanna spend that money anymore
    - Print table numbers at Walmart and buy picture frames
    - Design menus {If I go that route. Everyone is eating the same thing!}
    - Design programs {In progress}
    - Escort card chart {Order posters, buy materials, contact Csuperstar for help}
    - 2nd photo session {with wedding day photographer this time}
    - Buy photo guestbook or frames and mats {whichever one I feel like at the time}
    - Blow up pic for entrance to the venue
    - Book hotel room
    - Pay folks

    That's ALL {sarcasm} I can come up with right now. My dress should be in by the 12th of April. Pray I can fit it! IDK if one of my BMs ordered her dress and don't care. I'm also praying that no one books the other ballroom because the lady at the venue said that I MIGHT be able to use it for the ceremony!! {Room starts at $14k}
