Feeling Overwhelmed! :(

So, wedding is on December 27th.  Instead of crossing things off my to-do list and making the list smaller, I feel like it just keeps growing!!!  It's starting to freak me out!!!!  :(  In addition to about 30 things on the list to do in the next oh...38 days (whoa crap, can't believe only 38), as a music teacher, I have a several performances going on in December too that I need to be focusing on as well.  In addition to 30 things on my list, and the performances at school, my girlfriend's wedding is November 28th, so I've got MOH duties to be attending too as well!   I'm getting so burnt out, and of course, I'm sick!  I've only been sick one other time this year which is a record for me at this point, but now it's illness #2.  

I thought I had any potential freak-outs under control and I was not going to stress about anything, because I've always figured what's the point in stressing out?  Yeah-that ship has sailed.  

Sorry to vent, but thanks for reading.

    Hang in there, I am sure everything will come together in the end. I know how you are feeling (althought not quite!) I am feeling like my list is 700 items long, but I have much more time so I can understand how you are stressed. Everything will work out and you will have a great day!

    At 44 days, I completely feel you.  Here's a suggestion: can you tackle one item a day? I've been doing that, and it really seems to be helping.  Also, take time to SLEEP!  Sleep has been the last thing on my to-do list, but I had to put it first because I was fighting off the same cold over and over.  And grab some vitamin C drops (the Halls ones with 100% of your daily requirement) and take them like crazy. They work!
    Lastly, delegate!  Especially to your FI. And remember, it'll all be worth it when it's over...or so I hear!  Hang in there!

    P.S. I also feel a big glass of wine (or 2) does wonders!

    Oh no Val!!!
    I love the suggestion of doing one thing a day.  I can't believe how quickly your wedding day is approaching!  When we started talking it was like 6 months away!  Oh my goodness!
