Tonight I finished the Monday crossword puzzle all by myself...no going to Google for help...AT ALL. I did the crossword instead of cleaning my room or planning the wedding. I feel guilty. I feel like I should be doing more about "THE WEDDING". I went from working 52 hours a week to working 36 hours so I could devote my time to "THE WEDDING AND THE MOVE". This is the first week of my new schedule so maybe I am being too hard on myself. Maybe an impromptu anti-wedding doesn't need a large amount of planning. Maybe this is one of those things that comes together at the last minute. Maybe I am going to have the most unorganized and thus boring and tragic wedding and reception in the history of the United States.
I definitely have pieces of my wedding together. I have a location and a dress. I have an officiator and a bridesmaid. David has a best man. I have a baker for the main dessert. Invitations are being created. I have a "theme and colors" and a tentative date. I have a mental list of things I want and don't want. I have a rough draft of a guest list. Somehow all of these abstract things are going to come together to make a wedding. It just doesn't seem possible and yet it is. Hundreds of women are doing the exact same thing I am doing,have done it and will continue to do it. But if that is the case then why I am finding it so difficult?

because you never WANTED it...
most brides DO want it (the wedding, the cake, all the planning, etc)...
BUT, since it will be relatively simple (according to you) and not entail all sorts of crazy things, it probably will come together (just fine!) at the last minute. :)
Point taken. Oh and I checked out "Wedding planning for dummies" from the library. Which I will probably flip through and let collect dust on my floor and then return having not gleaned a thing.
