My work schedule is now crammed when I expected to have 2 weeks off! I'm in panic mode. I have so many things to do - projects, scheduling, decisions yet to be made... and the people who have offered to help aren't available to help at this point for verious reasons either. Anyone else close to their wedding date and feeling the stress of lack of time or other pressure issues that aren't helping the planning process along??
Sound off ladies!
Right now my stressors are definitely my sisters/BMs. One has a whole slew of health problems (they're doing a colonoscopy to check for colon cancer, this week.. on top of spinal problems, and her immune system attacking her body, causing her to lose golf ball-sized patches of hair, just to name a few), and I'm wondering if she'll be healthy enough to be a part of the big day, now.
My other sister STILL hasn't paid the balance on her dress (a cost we've eaten, and were hoping she'd pay us back for), and the dress is hanging in my closet as we speak. She hasn't even laid eyes on it (she lives 3 hours away), and I know for a fact that it will need alterations.. ugh.
My silly little complaint on top of this, is that I ordered (blank) water bottle labels fom eBay 3 weeks ago, and they still haven't arrived. I thought I'd have them printed/applied by now, so I doubt we'll get those done. It was a big deal to me, considering we're having an ourdoor ceremony.. but I guess it's not really life-altering. I'm just bummed.
It does feel overwhelming. But you definitely have to pace yourself. You can only do what you can do. In the end it did work out for me. Our wedding was beautiful. You just have to not try to do everything by yourself.
