   2 months!! I realized that we're only 2 months away and almost had a panic attack. I need to get a more organized to-do list. I have 1 at work and 1 at home, but they aren't consistent. My work blocks Google docs and Dropbox, so it's really hard for me to just have 1 list. I'm thinking I need to just start carrying around…

   I'll be married in exactly one week. I can't believe it. The most stressful thing for me right now is the packing. I thought, that I would be able to get everything (clothes, shoes, the few wedding décor items we have) into my large suitcase. That is not going to work out. I HATE having to check 2 bags. I'm usually a…

   I think #2 would annoy me the most. That's just flat-out rude. My only issue *so far* with RSVPs has been second guessing them lol. My cousin RSVPd for just himself and his son, but not his girlfriend. He and his girlfriend are INSEPARABLE, like to the max. He even takes her on business trips. So I saw she wasn't on there…

   Our wedding would be a mess without a seating chart. FI's mom's side apparently does not know his dad's side at all. Our different friend groups (high school, college, etc) don't know each other at all. Some of my dad's relatives don't know some of my mom's relatives. And we're not doing any sort of head table or…

   I've been asked this a few times too. It's like "Where else should I be? What would I be doing? Should I sit at home and stare at the clock? Should I spend 2 weeks painting my nails or something? Why can't I be at work???"

   No one is super picky, and the restaurant offers a wide variety. There are 2 known allergies in the group. My dad has a severe shellfish/iodine allergy, and FI's two nephews both have a milk allergy. That is also another reason why we think it might be easier to go the a la carte option.

   My Mom totally made my day by volunteering to hunt down her family for me. That meant I only had to call like 2 of my actual friends instead of about 10 extended family members. Now I just have to start working on seating charts. Ugh. I hate these sort of decisions.

   Just wanted to comment on this and say that the other day I was talking to FI and I said, I feel like something is happening May 2. And FI was like our wedding party that my mom is hosting? I'm like no no that's not it... And then I go, OH! a bunch of girls from TK are getting married that day. He was just like

    I *think* I may have done an asshole thing? I filled in the M___________ with the invited persons name(s). Mainly because I didn't want to lose track of the card and not know who it was from because I didn't have the forethought for actually numbering them somewhere. ETA: I did give them the option of putting # of people…
