April 2012 Weddings

This wedding is literally aging me.

I have found 2 white hairs this week. I'm 29.

I have the wedding, work, school, and various other things that are occupying all of my time and thought. I just need a break... I've gotten even more stressed this week because i got 2 phonecalls asking me to take 4 extra shifts. I go to school 26 hours a week and i'm going to be working tomorrow and friday, then next weekend i start working 3 weekends in a row. That is 28 days without a day off from work or school.

Did i mention i'm getting married in less than 2 months and my dres hasn't come yet?

Sorry for the freak out :(

  • Sometimes I have felt almost the same way.

  • It's good to know I'm not alone.
  • Oh man, I feel ya. I can't even begin to describe here all of the responsibilities I have.

    Plus, my MOH just got engaged. Super yey for her. Problem is, she has 10 bridesmaids. 10!! And all of them are super crazy. She's getting married on my 1yr anniversary, 4-21-13. She got engaged Monday and on Tuesday 2 of the girls texted me for my contact info to start planning a shower & bachelorette party. Really? REALLY? It's over 1 year away!!! I had to ask to be taken out of the group text because my phone was blowing up all day. 

    With all of my personal & business stress, I really don't need that! So yes, I feel you. I refuse to check if I have gray hair...
  • If it makes you feel better I got my first grey at the age of 12! My dad has it saved in an envelope. My fmil has been causing wedding stress migraines though. Maybe try to find an hour for yourself where you can go get mani pedi or something?

    That, is crazy!  Of couse, I can't really talk, 2 of my besties did the same thing (FTR I told them they were nuts) when I got engaged. 

    Funny you should mention gray hairs.  My hair dresser so helpfully pointed out the other day when I was in that I had a little bit of gray coming in at my temples.  I just plugged my ears and started singing "lalalalalala".  Job+wedding planning=gray hair.

    Yeah, FH pointed and laughed at me. So mean... Hah.
  • I found my first grey hair at 18, that was a stressful year for me lol and it seems like I find more all the time! I'm not stressed about the wedding...yet lol I blame my grey hair on fi my daughter, and parents lol
  • I wish I only had 2 grey hairs (I'm 27)
  • edited February 2012
    At least I know I'm not alone.  It's actually comforting.  I feel like I have no time with a 7 month old baby and my fiance working full time and going to school full time.  That means it's like I'm a single parent.  If I'm not working, then I'm taking care of my baby.  When do I get time for myself or time to dedicate to our wedding??  Ugh...it's so hard!  on top of that, now FMIL is giving us grief and trying to control our wedding and our decisions.

    I found my first grey hair a couple of days before my 19th birthday. Now I find one once a year or so.
