Can't sleep!

My wedding is Saturday, and I haven't been able to fall asleep for the past 3 nights. I NEVER have trouble with insomnia. I don't think I'm that anxious, but when I lay down and get close to falling asleep, I all of a sudden remember something else I need to check on or an email I need to send. I can't wait for Saturday- not only to marry FI but also to have all this planning behind me!

Re: Can't sleep!

  • I feel your pain, I'm just over 2 weeks out and already the insomnia is starting to kick in. I just lay there for hours thinking about everything I have to do in these next 2 weeks. Its pretty awful.

  • Oh preach...last night I could not fall asleep for the life of me.  FI and I had spent the evening getting things checked off our to-do list and....ran out of things to do.  That has NEVER happened to me while wedding planning.  I sat there, desperately trying to think of something....but nothin'.  We are on top of the ball.

    When it was bedtime, I just laid there, staring at the ceiling, butterflies galore.  I think it's feeling REALLY, REALLY real now and I could not sleep for love nor money.

    ...It was also like, 90% humidity last night and the bed was just a big sweat pool, which probably didn't help sleeping matters.  Gross.

  • War and Peace. Not even kidding. Read it online. With all respect to Leo Tolstoy, this is my go-to treatment for insomnia. I have never read chapter 2. 

    Moby Dick is another great snooze.  

    John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress could put me to sleep if I drank 12 shots of espresso, smoked crack, and was getting married to Johnny Depp the following day. This may be the dullest writing in the known world.
  • I feel like my heart will explode with stress :)

    Lesson ladies: take several days off from work before your wedding. Don't be like me.

    Come on Saturday! Op, you've got this. I hope you and your FI are still kissing and hugging and enjoying each others company. Because I have been so busy and stressed, I never see FI and when I do, he annoys me. How did we get this way? We live in the same house and I've gone 48 hours without seeing him. Dumb jobs.

  • I'm between jobs so time off is no problem. And FI took tomorrow and Friday off so he can help with stuff too :-)
    I'd better get back to these place cards though...
