Almost Tearful Tuesday

I have NOT been sleeping at all the last couple of weeks.  I am a teacher and I know my sleep schedule is all messed up, but last night I got sleepy by myself at like 1:30....at 2:20 I still wasn't asleep and decided to catch up on some Grey's Anatomy.  I wasn't asleep until 4!
I had to wake up at 8 and go to the gym for a rigourous work out.  My FI had to put in his month's notice today.  We have been long distance for a long time.  I didn't realized how stressed I was about his job stuff and moving here.  He told me as he was typing his email to his boss, he got a call for an interview.  They said they have an office in Dallas and he is very qualified.  He has been trying to get a job here since January.  He parents said he could work for them as a back up until he finds a job in his field.  Last weekend they decided to pull out and not give him a job.  I about lost it when he said he had an interview tomorrow.  It is such a blessing.
I got home and had to scrub up quickly because I had an interview with the caterer to finish up the food options.  First of all, tell me if this makes sense.  The guy told me he was available any time Tuesday, so I said 1 (trying to avois lunch rush), he said he had a meeting at 2.....wouldn't you think he could have said, "Tuesday works, what time is good for you?  I have a meeting at 2, but I am available any other time."......really?  Made the appointment at noon, which I didn't want to do, as a server I know lunch meetings are not fair.  Met there, he looked through our contract, which I have marked out THE SAME THING 5 times.  He then said it would be like 30-45 minutes until our food test was ready.....HE set the appointment.  Then he wanted us to come back or deliver it to us.  I have my bridal portraits tomorrow and have things to do....eating food that should have been ready is not one of them.  IT WAS SO FRUSTRATING.  That is when I REALLY wanted to cry.
Since I didn't have the tasting as I should have, we went somewhere for lunch...there I realized I had quite a rash on both of my arms.  You know, a rash, a day before my portraits.
Between the sleep deprivation, hard work outs, rash, caterer mess, FI moving, I feel like melting down.  Sorry for such a long post, but I figured other brides could somewhat relate.  Thank you for reading lol.

Re: Almost Tearful Tuesday

  • I'm so sorry. I know it's hard to think of things in a more positive way, but I always feel like in the end things work out the way they are supposed to. What type of work is your FI in? I do think that was terrible that you set up a tasting and the guy doesn't have any food ready for you. I do not think that's normal, although my caterer only had tastings 4 times a year. I would definately try to get some aveno cream, anything with their oatmeal i it is very relaxing for the skin, as well as taking some type of antihistime like benydryl.

    I know that I was super stressed and just took a week away from it all. Rekmember that your sanity is more important than all of the little details being worked out right away. Just relax, breathe, do something that relaxes you most.

    I agree with this. So sorry all of this has happened to you but it will get better and everything will work out.
  • I agree with Deborah.  Nothing ever goes exactly as planned, and there are RARELY screw-ups big enough that people actually notice.

    I'm sorry you're so stressed!  Pour yourself a glass of wine and get some rest!

  • Y'all are so sweet!  Thanks.  The rash magically went away after some heavy cortizone applications lol.  My bridal portraits were so fun and went great.  My poor photographer got so hot though.  I felt bad for him....even though I was wearing the hot, sweaty, heavy dress.  Thank you brides!  Y'all are awesome.
