I have hit upon the perfect analogy for wedding planning, and you know how much I love a good analogy. The epiphany is almost good enough to improve my morning, in fact.

You know how, even after a relatively relaxing weekend, you just can’t get going on Monday morning? Despite two cups of coffee and a real desire to get out of the doldrums, your brain can’t think of the right words and your eyes keep wanting to close? You remember having a bazillion things to do when you finally stopped working on Friday afternoon, but you can’t think of a single thing that seems critical right now?

And do you ever feel, on Monday mornings, that you have all the time in the world to get things done, so maybe you’ll just ease into the week by reading a few blogs and catching up with your peeps about their weekends? And you know (oh, you know) that at some point, you’ll be slammed with everything all at once, but right now, you’ll keep believing it won’t be so bad? And that the weekend is so. far. away. that of course you’ll have plenty of time to get everything done, how could you not with five whole days to fit it in?

Wedding planning is like a Monday morning. ‘riday’s to-do list seems like it was so long ago and much less urgent (invites, what invites?). I’ve done a lot of daydreaming but haven’t gotten a whole lot accomplished and I just know it’s going to whack me over the head anytime now. Ugg, I get antsy just thinking about it.

So in true Monday morning fashion, I’m going to avoid it altogether by doing something else entirely.

Anyone else feel this way?
