38 Days!!!!! Startin' to freak just a little...

Did you ever get to that point where you feel that you have gotten a lot done, but then there still is sooooo much left to do that you just want to take a nap? Well, not really, but maybe really???

    When that happened, I took a nap. Not in the few days before, though. No time for napping then. 


    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

  • I was seriously thinking about it.  A little overwhelmed...being an old chick and all...granny needs a nappy...
  • Yes... so hopefully.... everything will go well.  I did decide on what they are to walk down the aisle to, my girls and my new children...."When You Wish Upon A Star".  They are very excited!  I am so glad! My FI and I were talking last night about being very happy to start our journey together.... YAY for the journey!!!

    I get like that.  I'll be proud of myself for accomplishing something, and then be like "crap, I still have to do x,y,z..." and never relax.  It drives FI crazy.  When I get overwhelmed, I enjoy taking naps.  One of my favorite stress-relievers in college was the "fake naps" I took almost every day.  I'd take between 30-45 minutes, shut off the lights, crawl into bed, and just breathe.  Sometimes I fel asleep, but not usually (I always set an alarm just in case).  For some reason, just taking a break was very calming.  I need to find ways of doing that again!
  • I love that... "fake nap" thing.  I am going to do that!!!  I am feeling a little overwhelmed the last few days.  I will feel better after a small recharge, I always do.  This fake nap/real nap thing may just be what I am going to do- if I can find a little chance.
  • Oh, I feel your pain. We have 23 days to go, and I'm starting to get a little nervous myself!!

     

  • It is crazy pants isn't it?  AND now I don't have an officiant, officially....  ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! You see our church got a new minister, and I was waiting til the new one got here to ask him.  Well, he wants to do a "session of council" with us first.  My FI lives in TX and won't be here for the next visit until we get our marriage license in a week and a half.  I understand he is new to us and doesn't know us at all.  SO, I am going to have to look at asking one of our senior associate ministers because the new minister indicated he might not do the ceremony IF he feels that we don't "belong together".  My friends that know me and us were sort of shocked.  BUT, I do understand at the same time.  Hence, my reasoning for asking one of the associates that knows us and would not hesitate to do the ceremony.  I cannot go right up until the day (almost) without an officiant- IT makes me crazy...

    Everytime I get overwhelmed, I open a bottle of wine. Somehow it fixes everything.

     

  • i continue doing what im doing :P
  • The good news is that I DID get an officiant!!!  SO, that is a huge relief.  It is an associate minister that has known me for years, so it will be a very meaningful ceremony.
