Confessions of a Planaholic

I am experiencing side effects of 'planning overload'. For the second time in a month, and the first times in my life I forgot to set my alarm, and was late for work. I have decided its time for a change. And after reading this you'll see why,

MY WEDDING RESOLUTIONS

1. I will no longer neglect things that were important to me before the wedding, I do still want a new job!!

2. I will no longer open my wedding binder everytime my supervisor turns his back to see what I havent planned yet.

3. I will not check my AOL, cell phone, 8000 times a day to see if that vendor returned my call.

4. I will not go to Michael's bi-weekly to see if they invented something new.

5. I will not try and make every craft that I see on this website, and get upset when the margins dont come out perfectly. I am not Martha Stewart, and that is ok.

6. I will not feel like someone out there will do it cheaper, and they just werent one of the 30 vendors I already called.

7. I will not change my mind again about the centerpiece. I have to come to terms with the fact that no one makes red, unscented tealight candles in clear cups.

8. It is OK to call a vendor and say you have 'less than a year left'

9. I WILL NOT GET MAD EVERYTIME FH FORGETS TO DO THE ONE FU*KING THING I ASKED HIM TO DO.

This post was brought to you by a long ride home from Jamaica to Long Beach.

Great post! I've only been engaged 3 weeks and I've done everything on your list! I dream about this wedding and think about it non-stop.

I need that wedding resolution already!!!

Amen!!

let me just say that I am glad I am not the only one with these problems!!

Great list!

Wheww...Im not alone!!

This list is great! LOL!!

Thanks for the laughs - it really is needed sometimes, just to put it all in perspective.

Sometimes I forget I had A LIFE and did other thhings b/f I got engaged ... now everything is about the wedding!

You only forgot to add to 'try not to spend more than 15 hours a day LIWs, talking to your friends about wedding details!'

(yeah right .. who am I KIDDING with that one! This site is awesome!!)

I am showing this to FH just to prove I am not the only 'obsessed' bride (He thinks I'm nuts)! Thanks for the laugh!

I am also a FW of NYPD, he also thinks Im nuts on these boards daily. The funniest was when I told him there are boards for newlyweds, house hunting, and family planning. He was thrilled.

I do everything on your list. Now I'm scared.

That is so funny, I do all of the exact same things, in fact I am at work right now. And I also have a long ride home every night to think even more from Penn Station to Ronkonkoma....

Have you tried Party Light for the unscented red tea lights? I know they have red, and I also know they have clear cups. I also know they have unscented pillar candles in colors. Perhaps they carry unscented tea lights in red.


As you can see I am totally consumed. All I talk about is the wedding. And when I go out to relax and have a good time all anyone can ask me is how are my wedding plans going! Arrggg... I have like 2 years I haven’t done a thing!

That was hilarious...thanks for making me
I'm not there .... YET!
