I'm actually feeling pretty good about my TO DO List. I have it all written out and taped to the mirror in my bedroom. lol. I'll post what I've got left to do when I get home

---

I guess I am one of the only people who are really going to wing it lol

I really don't see a need for a list, I mean, I have a small list, but I think everything is practically taken care of and in order. Plus, I will be home all of next wednesday, thursday and friday, to think about everything haha

I am just a lazy biotch now :(

---

i just made a list - i didnt have one until today i just needed to SEE it so i will DO IT - im trying to think of a game plan for each day to get everything done....

i just scheduled my brazilian wax for tues the 2nd - i am so nervous b/c since the middle of the year i stopped going to save money and this time i am going to a new woman

Re: December Brides - Where are you???

I had to put a list together so I wouldn't forget anything. i was finding that i'd think of something I neeed to do then it wouldn't get done. I only created my list the beginning of this month.

Now I have a running list and it's actually nice to cross off items from it. I still have quite a bit but much less than what I started with when I first put the list together.

Re: December Brides - Where are you???

I give my FH a to do list almost on a daily basis now. I don't know how he puts up with me. I really don't know how to function without my lists. At least, next week is all about pampering me.

I finally gave FH a to-do list. I have a feeling I'm going to have to nag...especially about our flowers.

well the woman i went too - all i did was lay down on my back and move my leg to the side....and somehow she managed to get EVERYTHING without me getting into weird and uncomfy positions - i even would wear disposable undies while she did it and she would just move them out of the way when she needed too - just so that i wasn't totally naked - i mean she could still see it, but i feel better about it of course she is only there now on fri and sat and i need a wax closer to the wedding b/c i need it to last for the HM....i heard the woman i have the appointment with is crazy and makes you do some really weird things - like lay on your tummy and spread! i dont know how i am going to do it - the other woman got it all without making you do anything embarrasing! im going to be so nervous!

Re: December Brides - Where are you???

Those of you who were talking about maybe writing out a physical List of what's left to do - I definitely encourage it! Writing things down just helps you see what's left and it gets all that crap OUT of your mind and onto paper instead Plus it feels really nice to cross something off said list. lol. I had a list of things I had to complete just in the month of NOVEMBER and now there's another one for DECEMBER (this one's shorter than the last, thank God!!)

Here it is:

- Make payment & confirm Flowers
-Finish Centerpieces
- Pack for the honeymoon
- Pack up my entire room for the big move to Colorado
- Get final payments together
- Tip envelopes
- Put together Day-of payments (hair, makeup, etc)
- Finalize plans for RD
- Marriage License
- Get the frames & finish up table numbers
- Shop for Wedding Day/Night
- Make nail appointment
- Arrange for hair & makeup for the girls
- Start TANNING as soon as Thanksgiving is over

Re: December Brides - Where are you???

i still have to .....
-get marriage license
-pick out ceremony music
-buy candy for candy buffet
-buy placecard holders
-groomsmen gifts
-dye shoes
-hair and makeup trial
-meet with officiant
-make fh go for his tux
-start tanning
-placecards
-seating chart
-drop everything off at rh
-book hotel room for night before and night of wedding

i'm sure there's more.....

Re: December Brides - Where are you???

Did you get your marrige license? Do you have a day-of timeline?

Re: December Brides - Where are you???

Ugh, 2 people (friends of FHs parents) just dropped out.....this is so annoying.....we had someone else back out last week (another friend of FH's parents/our neighbors)....its just annoying, i told FH, ummm, by the time the wedding comes we might not have anyone left.....i hope we don't get any no-shows, i will be so pissed - well not that day, i wont even notice, but after the fact it will really bug me....

but anyways, i started my table numbers last night - i got two done, im not that good in powerpoint and i was having a hard time moving the text box - im not sure if i am doing something wrong, or if my computer is old and crappy - i don't know, FH is going to help me tonight, hopefully we can finish them up....

and i think i get my cardbox today!

I had a nightmare recently about that. lol. Somebody (who's word basically means nothing) didn't show up to the wedding in my dream. And i actually called her that night, all like 'Are You Kidding Me?' haha.
Sometimes I think about the obnoxious no-shows also. Even tho on the day-of I am sooo not gonna care, it's still rude & unacceptable. And i know that i would be contacting them soon after, looking for an excuse for their stupidity.

I have used them, and yes they work. I don't drink coffee or smoke, so I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but my teeth were noticably whiter within the next 2-3 days. They are awesome, and you reminded me that I need to do that! lol
