Confession Thursday

Good morning ladies, it's confession Thursday.

I confess I have been feeling really guilty lately. We found out about a month ago that my Grandmother is terminally ill, and it's been really hard on my family. I have 3 siblings my brother lives on the other side of the country, I have one other adult sister and the baby is 6 so it's basically my Mom, my sister and I. We all agreed that we didn't want to put her in a nursing home so we worked out a schedule we were take turns spending the night with her. Every time I am there I start think about how much stuff I have to do for this wedding, all the things I could be doing right then, and how little time I already have to get everything done. Then I feel so guilty for even thinking about this wedding I mean this is my Nanna! She is like my mother, and all I can think about is what else I've got going on. I feel like I am being pulled in so many directions, and I am exhausted physically and emotionally I just want to crawl up in a ball and shut out my whole reality for at least a week.

Re: Confession Thursday

  • I'm late to this but oh well! 

    I confess that I'm procrastinating with wedding planning and staying away from the knot because it hurts to know my mom won't be at the wedding. I haven't logged into the message boards in a looong time. The closer the wedding gets the happier I am to get this planning part over with but I'm also more anxious about my mom. She has dementia and is in a special care unit so there is no possible way for her to be at the wedding (and she wouldn't know what was going on anyway). I just can't imagine getting married without her being there. I can't wait to marry FI but I hate that my mom won't be there so I procrastinate and don't think about it. I hate going between being excited to marry this great guy and being completely heartbroken that one of the most important people in the world to me is dying. And she doesn't even know it, not any of it.
