Never a dull moment

It's 11 AM. I've been awake since 6AM, got done early at my first job and would really love to return to a peaceful slumber before going to my second job at 5PM. Because, all though the time gap between the two jobs seems like a nice one it's NOT. Because I'll be there til midnight serving up drinks and food.

I have a million and one thoughts, that feel like alarms blasting off in my head right now: pay dj, pay photographer, Dad's attire, brother's attire, hotel reservations, tally RSVPs... So the idea of a peaceful, relaxing mid-day nap is...well, null and void at this point in my day.

You're probably wondering how I have time to write if I have so much to do, right? Well, this is my sanity. Being able to concentrate on one specific thought (Okay I'm also waiting for my iron to heat up so I can begin the ring bearer pillow) is keeping calm.

Mom's stressed and will probably turn completely gray by the time this is over. (Even though she colors her hair) Trina is stressed and might starve to death because of the knots in her stomach. Ryan...well he's fallen head over heels for his new job and is on cloud 9. And I'm considering calling in quits...no maybe someone should just knock me out til the wedding day.

I hope you are finding humor in this. Wedding planning is so crazy and should be done by a wedding planner. And NOT the bride. Thank God I'll never plan another.

Okay okay, it's not that bad. I think everyone else is a freaking out more than I am to be honest. PS. I just finished my ironing job for the pillow. Now I can sew it.

I just got a call from the jeweler. Our rings are ready! A sunbeam is peaking through this cloudy mess. Horray!! This IS worth it. And will be just like I imagine it will be!

They (old scholars and geniuses) always say it's the little things that matter. Like a simple phone call that reminds you why this day is so important. One reassuring thought when times are tough gets you through the storm until the sun shines.

Well, I'm off to sew. And hmm..I'm feeling a little sleepy. Maybe a nap isn't entirely impossible.
