ok so i've been reading and reading all the 'overwhelmed/stressed out' posts thinking 'GEEZ ....I AM SO LUCKY THAT I HAVE NOT GOTTEN STRESSED YET AND ITS ONLY A MONTH BEFORE THE WEDDING!'...... untill today lol. First off since sunday i've been feeling SO horrible - sinus infection, soar throat, fever, etc.(obviously because i'm running around like a chicken with it's head cut off).... we're trying to get our new place settled and all moved into BEFORE the wedding and theres just no time to do it, i totally forgot that i have to get my baby pictures to the videographer, and our list to our DJ, i have a meeting with jericho terrace tonight to go over our menu (etc.), ....our final payment for our honeymoon is due this saturday, FMIL has yet to book rehearsal dinner, and i have yet to take care of my favors and programs due to lack of time. SO....today i go into work (with a 102 fever) and of course they send me home....luckily my FH is home so i'm like 'yaay, he'll make me feel better & maybe we can get our costumes together for a halloween party we have this saturday since we havent yet and i can get my mind off some things'....so i call him and instead having the 'oh i'll make u feel better attitude' he tells me he made plans to go golfing....which just ROYALLY pissed me off(only to add that the friend he's golfing with calls and hears i'm sick & says 'oooh, instead of me & josh going golfing why dont i bring over board games and we'll keep you company'.......so his FRIEND was a more thoughtful than HIM which made me even more upset...UUUGGGH!!!) anyways, so then i get all my stuff together to work on for my favors and programs thinking 'u know what...i can use this downtime to take care of some things', to find out the FH hasnt hooked up the printer yet because we dont have the right drivers or programs on our new computer......GREEEEAT. so now, i get to sit home BY MYSELF, with nothing to do all while thinking of all the things i HAVE TO DO. lol sorry for this very long bridezilla vent....i'm just extremely overwhelmed & just want to cry it all out uuugggghhh....i guess this leaves just one word....
BREATHE. lol
thanks for reading!

Re: feeling overwhelmed...(for the first time)
First - vent all you want!!!!!!!
Two - If you have the program all set on word or any program and have the paper - just bring it to Kinko's or Staples and they will cut and print everything for you!
Three - REST!!!!!!!!!! Curl up in a blanket, pop in a movie, take 2 aspirin, drink plenty of water and take a NAP!!!!!!!!!! Give your body the rest it needs!!!!!
Four And when your FH gets home - tell he is ORDERED to make you chicken noodle soup and grilled cheese by order of the LIW brides!
And just breathe - it will all get done, but the most important thing right now is you getting better!

I totally agree with this - 'REST!!!!!!!!!! Curl up in a blanket, pop in a movie, take 2 aspirin, drink plenty of water and take a NAP!!!!!!!!!! Give your body the rest it needs!!!!!'
You need to rest up and make sure you are healthy for the next month!

Definitely rest, and put it out of your mind for a few moments. Relax. It will all get done and your wedding will be beautiful.
Oh, and as an fyi, if you're going to get grilled cheese, do tomato soup with it. much tastier with it than chicken. I'm JUST saying.

See, I don't like tomato soup, so that's why I said Chicken!

Glad you are feeling less stressed! It hit me too this week how much there is to do and how much time there is to do it!
Betsy - Thanks for that info about Kinkos and Staples! I have all of my program paper but, I've been dreading trying to print it out because I didn't have a lot of luck printing out envelopes!

Glad you rested - and now you're feeling better and you have more accomplished!! Just remember to rest every once in a while so you don't end up sick near the wedding week!

HTH - I've seen a few girls use them to get things done quickly for their wedding, so I know they can do it right and nicely!
