Another Wedding Nightmare

August 7th, 2007 @ 11:28 am by Mrs. Corn

This one revolved around us not having our license and me not having taken a shower for three days and feeling skanky (this may have something to do with how humid it was out last night). I kept telling people in my dream that we couldn’t get married because my sister (who actually IS officiating the service) told us our ticket to getting in to the rehearsal was our license and we didn’t have one. I also was really upset because my hair was in no condition to be styled.

I know these all have to do with anxiety, but in all reality, I am doing much better than a week ago. Last week I may or may not have had a slight breakdown that manifested itself in my chewing off all my nails…you know…the ones that I stopped biting way back in April and now don’t have enough time to fully grow in again. Yeah. Disappointing, not to mention, disgusting.

Anyway, when Mr. Corn got back from his business trip, we sat down and made a spreadsheet (he is an accountant after all) of all of the things we need to get done for the wedding, and for work between now and the wedding. It is a HUGE list, but I am so thankful to have it all out of my head and ‘on paper’. Which is why I am confused that I had such a vivid no-you-can’t-get-married-today dream.

Oh well…maybe I will chalk it up to eating ice cream before bed.

I always feel better when I put it on paper too. :) I’m so hopped up I’m considering asking my doctor about things to help me sleep the week of the wedding. I don’t want to, but otherwise I’m afraid I might turn into a zombie.

As for your nails, there is this Sally Hansen stuff that comes in a gold bottle called “Nailgrowth Miracle” that actually might be a miracle. It hardens them and their marketing says that nails grow 30% longer in 5 days guaranteed. I’ve never measured, but I love the stuff.

Early on in my wedding planning I was getting really overwhelmed with questions from people that I didn’t have answers to yet, so I built a giant spreadsheet of activities and assigned a month to each activity. It’s worked like a charm - if it was April and someone asked me a question about ceremony programs, I could say to myself “You don’t need to think about that until August.” I get great satisfaction from marking things as complete, and now that my wedding is six weeks away I only have 33 more items to go!

I absolutely second the list/spreadsheet idea. It’s made the last year much easier — and probably explains why at 6 1/2 weeks before the wedding, we’re both incredibly calm.

Excel is our friend. We have 73 items remaining on the list . . . ooh, it looks like I can knock about 4 more off in the next 20 minutes . . . hee :)
