Single Digits and Lack of Excitement

Sarah, on September 11, 2019 at 5:11 PM Posted in Planning 0 5
We are 9 days out! I’ve thought all along that once I reached single digits, I would be unable to sleep because I was so darn excited. Well I’ve been battling a sore throat for days- taking emergen C, zinc losanges, lots of fluids. Waiting to wake up one day and be full blown since. My fiancé on the other hand, is already full blown sick. And everytime he gets sick, he ends up with pneumonia or bronchitis.

Our seating chart has been done and we already paid the caterer, but multiple people are still trying to add and subtract guests- causing extra work and unnecessary stress. I’m just ready for all this to be over. Am I crazy? I’ve been looking forward to this for over a year, and now it’s almost here and I’m more overwhelmed than excited. I feel like I’ve been working so hard to plan and now all these things are out of my control.

    It makes complete sense especially given you're sick at the moment that it's overwhelming. I remember once I reached single digits I felt really nervous.
    Take a breather, get your health up! Sending you positive vibes.

    I’m two days away and I have been feeling the same way for about a week and a half now. My fiancé has been sick for the past two days and we have our schedules jam packed until this weekend. I made a promise to myself that when I wake up on the wedding day I will put ALL worries aside and focus on myself my FH and our families and all the joy we will have. Any problems that arise will be for those who caused them to figure out, lol.

    I think that being sick is totally adding to the stress. Take time to rest if possible! At the end of the day your wedding will go by so quickly and you will not remember the small details. Let things fall where they may and try to focus on the fact that in 9 days you will marry the love of your life. 😀

    Take a step back and relax. Deal with things as they come and move on. People are going to keep coming at you, but dont let it bother you. The one thing you can control is how you react to situations.

    Maybe write a little mantra down and repeat it throughout the day. Something like...Im so happy I'm marrying the love of my life soon. I know the day will be great because I'll be with him and my family and friends. Everyone will have fun, including me.

    This is exactly why you have to de-stress! self care is very important, my husband and I had 90 minute massages the day before the wedding and did all sorts of at home detox mostly liquid detox for the body the week before. You get so stressed and overwhelmed that getting sick is almost inevitable unless you are 100%, Go to the doctor now get something to cut it now instead of letting it get worse and take longer to feel 100%. Good Luck to you!
