I know that's a weird way to think about it, but it helps me calm down about the cost. At work I have a calendar with the daily countdown. At home I have one with the weekly count down. I was getting overwhelmed with the cost of everything we got going on, (Home renovations on top of the wedding stuff!!) So I calculated how many paychecks we'll have to pay down the cost before the big day.
172 days = 24 weeks = 12 paychecks.
Does anyone else have weird ways they handle the stress?
