I couldn't believe it. I literally had a breakdown right in front of my mom on the kitchen floor this morning. I can't do this anymore. How do you do it? How do you balance work, wedding planning , and house hunting? I had to take this entire week off from work just to work on invites and go house hunting. We actually put in an offer yesterday and I couldn't sleep all night. Over and over in my head, I'm going through numbers after numbers after numbers. I feel so sick to my stomach. Less than 5 months to my wedding day and I can not wait for this to be over.

Re: I cried this morning...
I think we all go through this so don't feel alone!!
I completely understand I go to work full time, go to school full time and maintaining a 4.0 average, planning a wedding by myself since FH is stationed overseas and I also do observations/student teaching for school. So I am always stressed. And with dealing with not being able to talk to FH when I want really gets to me because he helps me calm myself down. I also stress because when FH comes home from the military in nov he wont have a job because straight from HS he was in the marine corps and when he comes home nothing- so i am worried about money as well
So I have mental break downs alot lol but I pull through and it definitely helps when I have girls night out or just hang in my house with my sisters and watch a movie and hvae some wine. Or going to the gym to get some frustration out.
You will make it through!! Just take a deep breathe and try finding ways to relieve your stress like i was saying i hang out with girlfriends even if it is just dinner.

Re: I cried this morning...
girl, ur not alone. I am having trouble coping as well. with work, coming home and having my son to take care of and the planning...i am always sleepy. mind is constantly reeling...too many decisions to be made and it's not going to get any easier until after the wedding. my body and my mind are always in separate places...and i'm snapping at people occasionally. i don't like this emotional rollercoaster! hang on though!

Awww you poor thing! Don't worry, it's alot now, but it will all be worth it in the end, when you have a beautiful wedding, and amazing husband and a great house to live in! I know how you feel and I get that way at times too... like is there something else you want to add to my list of things to get done! But don't worry, you hit a bump and it happens to all of us!

Re: I cried this morning...
I know what you mean. We are moving into our new house, planning with only 3 months left, lesson plans and reports cards for work. There just isn't enough time in the day.
I have found two things help: venting to a good friend and making lists,

Re: I cried this morning...
aww don't get stressed out! just remember why you're doing all of this and how special your day will be...i've been working out almost every day to destress, and i make lists every day of what i want to accomplish..just putting a check next to something each day helps me feel better
..believe me..it gets rough..i have 2.5 months left and i have to finish planning a lot of stuff...on top of that i just found out i have to apply to grad school before april, i'm taking the level 3 CFA exam in june, and we're moving to NJ the day after the wedding!!!
we'll get through it! don't worry you have all of us to boost you up!!

Re: I cried this morning...
Thank you, thank you, thank you all for your words of encouragement and reassurance! I do feel alot better now and it really helped that I was discussing with people who are going through similar situations like mine. FH and I accepted an offer on the house today and we were able to start working on invites. I still feel stressed but venting to you all helped me blow off some steam. You all are so wonderful!

Re: I cried this morning...
Sometimes you need to just let it out....we know how stressful it is so we understand. I'm sure all of your hard work will be great in the end, your wedding will be awesome, you will get your house, work will be ok (it is work afterall ). Sometimes so much excitement is really stressful but you will get through it.
