The title is the mental image of what's going on with me at the moment.
Wedding planning, I'm realizing, is all about working hard for months so that I won't have to on November 3rd through 10th. I'm ok with that idea. I like planning and I like not stressing on important days, so... plan, I shall!!
While simultaneously taking a chemistry class... Yeah, yall, this is not my jam. Where are the mommies and babies in "calculate the standard free energy change for the formation of NO(g) from N2(g) and O2(g) at 298K?" No mommies and babies there. Nope. But I have to learn it in order to get to maternal and child nutrition, so I'm muscling through... *sigh*
So! In order to have some chill time tonight, I'm taking a detox bath! Epsom salts, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), essential oils, and maybe some ginger. Soak for 40 minutes while drinking PLENTY of water, and then sleep soundly for several hours. Amen. I may even play some Enya and light a candle, yall. I expect to feel like a fully rested superhero tomorrow morning.
Ok--fun wedding stuff that the dudes should be involved in: venue picking (some have opinions here), registering (but only for 1 hour), groomsmen's attire, honeymoon stuff (all of it--just let him do it all), hiring the "getaway car," meeting the photographer, and helping to pick the food. Everything else, I've learned, goes so much smoother if it just magically happens for him.
It goes smoother because he thinks it's fun and easy, and that makes a world of difference :)
PS, I miss this. But priorities right now are crazy leaning toward other things, so I'll keep updating as is possible!
