Only not really.

I’ve been wanting to write this post for a while, but I was sure that once the wedding got closer, it would no longer be relevant. That hasn’t happened, so here goes.

We’re less than two weeks out to the wedding. In addition to schlepping bread to farmers’markets five days a week, babysitting three, and helping out another pastry chef as needed, I’m also supposed to be getting bride brain. Or so I’ve heard. When I do have a few moments that aren’t devoted to sleep or sneaking in a quick sesh at the climbing gym, I’ve shopped for two awesome Halloween costumes. And last night I carved a pumpkin.

Actually, Mr. Skunk carved (word up y’all, if you want your mister to join you in cheesy holiday traditions, get power tools involved) while I looked on giggling in excitement.

I keep getting asked if I’m stressed or nervous.

The answer is no. I feel like each day leading up to the wedding has been great so far, but I haven’t felt any of that anxiousness that I’ve heard and read so much about. BM J. Snake lives in Savannah and begs for me to give her tasks to complete. But really, there’s not much to do. I feel very in the moment right now. It’s almost as if I’m going to wake up one Saturday (really really soon) and say, “Hmmm. I think I’ll get married today.” I figure I’ll wake up, get purtified and have a super fantastic party. Icing on the cake? Mr. Skunk becomes my husband. But a part of me is strangely worried that I’m not worried.

Has anyone else stumbled upon a calm attitude? Is there still a chance I’ll turn into a crazy pants?
