WHERE ARE THE BRAKES ON THIS THING!???

Tygirljojo

Seriously!  I'm looking around for a lever to yank on, but I'm not finding anything!  I don't know why I feel so stressed, most everything's in place, it's primarily finalizing things and whatnot. 

Had the bridal shower yesterday which was awesome - I got to see a lot of old friends and friends of the family I haven't seen in a long time and got a great mix of kitchen stuff as well as a couple lingere pieces from my BMs which embarassed the heck out of me in front of my mom! 

FI's been doing better with helping out on things.  While I was at my shower, he went and got all the soda and sparkling cider at Costco so all we need now is the Asti Spumanti from TJ's. 

Please tell me I'm not the only one who's feeling like my mind is getting away from me!

My brain has turned into mush... pure mush... I cannot remember anything anymore and feel like I am running around like a crazy person!! Between being shorthanded at work and busier than we have been in awhile and trying to finalize everything and keeping up with other commitments I think I am losing my mind!!!

Tygirljojo

Lol, I know the feeling!!  FI and I had dinner with our friends last night, one of my BMs and one of FI's GMs and there were quite a few times yesterday where I completely spaced on things and BM had to remind me or steer me in the right direction.  I can't remember which way is up right now.

No joke... yesterday I actually paused when someone asked me my name! I am refusing to be stressed! At this point everything should be fine... We have a place, food and drinks and will be getting married. I must remember that is all that matters! Also we have almost half of our RSVP's and only 12 no's! Crazy...

I have been an emotional wreck on and off about the wedding. Its been crazy since I am mainly doing the wedding DIY and for the love of my FI he has been awesome about it.

Dude, I am right there with you. Any time someone says the word "wedding" I want to vomit!

I have more time than you girls, but I had a mini-breakdown (again!) this weekend.  I was freaking out and everything FI did or said or didn't do or didn't say, made me cry.  I'm not normally this crazy!  I am so over the wedding.  And we had more address label issues, which sent me over the edge.  Every time someone asked me about the wedding this weekend, my response was, "I can't wait 'til its OVER!"

Hopefully we will all love our weddings and pics so much that all this craziness was worth it.

Tygirljojo

Ugh, don't even talk to me about time.  I wasn't on all this past week and already hit the 30 day mark and now my ticker is freaking me out!

KST_

I have so much f*ing baking to do, it's not funny. I have all the banana bread, but now I need to bake like 140 scones! To top it all off, I am back to not sleeping well at all. Can't go to sleep because I can't get my brain to STFU! I have TWO WEEKS, although I do probably put more pressure on myself by saying it's only one week to get stuff done. But I already have things that HAVE to get done the final week that I can't really count it.

I am right there with you girls. This is crazy!!! I had no clue I became a crazy person having a wedding. I am at the point of ignoring it. My house has been super clean. I really need to buckle down and get everything done. But as soon as anything wedding related happens. My stomach shoots up to my throat and I began to feel like throwing up :P


If you find the lever please share!!!

I completely agree. I still feel like we have time but when the weekend comes I have no motivation to accomplish anything. I feel the same about not being able to remember anythig and every time certain people see me all they say is.. "how many days until the wedding.....:)?" UGH! leave me alone!

i don't have much more to do besides figuring out logistics of stuff... which is stressful. I also have a bnch of little things to do.. we still have a bunch of people who need to rsvp so hopefully this weeks is good for us considering our caterer needs our number by monday.

still have to buy the wine and order kegs. finish escort cards, write ceremony/vows, have trials, final meetings, figure out flowers(which I think i have...sorta), get marriage license, banquet permit, wrap presents, and some more logistics and then i'm done. oh.. and alterations on my dress!

Tygirljojo

Eek!  You just reminded me of the vows!  *sigh* I knew I was forgetting something!

jennlin

psh....this was SOOOO last year....

just kidding ladies...as stressful as it is..you'll live through it... you'll turn out perfectly "normal", just like me, when this is all said and done...wait..does that stress you out more? hah..

relax...you're marrying the love of your life!

Yep, it's a completely normal feeling. I just took a deep breath and started writing everything down. And crossing it off my list. And as the days ticked closer deciding if I really wanted something or was ok with letting it go. There are only so many hours in the day. You do the best you can. And the old saying "only you'll notice what's wrong/missing" is true. I can name at least 4 things that were wrong/didn't get done, and no one said a thing.

mergator

Totally right there with you! I feel spacey and emotional, but there are so many tasks to get done I am on autopilot. I am also getting very excited, so I have FABULOUS mood swings! Yee--haw!

trishaselby

I am so exhausted right now that I'm not even going to make this long. I am goingto go try out my new jetted tub. I seriously need and deserve it!! I don't want to be a wedding slave anymore!

breezyblueyez

I feel the same way and i have 90 days to go!  Everything will work out and be amazing!  cant wait to see pics afterwards!


p.s. Trisha- i think we went to the same HS. lol
