I feel like I need to be doing something 24/7!

i am walking around this house aimlessly! rearranging things! i have everything done, with a couple of minor exceptions. i think i have alot of nervous energy to burn off!! of course, FH is sleeping, he worked hard today the poor baby! i need to relax and just can't seem to! maybe i'll go to bed now

I get like that, too, but I can't imagine what I'll be like in the week before my wedding! Just relax. Have some tea or take a bath. Do something to get your mind to settle!

i know what you mean except i still have to do things....
good luck sweetie

Me too... I feel like I am missing something that I should be doing.

When I got engaged, I had been lurking on The Knot and a little bit on LIW. I gave myself 'only' 9 months to plan. So many of the brides on the boards had everything booked already for October when I came aboard. I was convinced that I was really behind in my planning. I worked like a maniac and had all my venders booked by the end of February, as well as my dress and my BM & FG dresses picked. That feeling of frenzy has never left me. While I appear very calm on the outside, I am a mess of turbulent planning on the inside.

my SIL planned her wedding in 5 months and she drove me to drink! i definately know how you feel!

OUCH. 5 months is actually short. FH's sister did in that amount of time (way before I knew him). But her wedding was small by conparison.

9 months is really enough time. I just got frantic that all the venders would be booked, and I would be stuck settling for people that I felt luke-warm about. It's very stressful to come on and hear girls say that the vender they wanted is already booked AND their wedding is over a year away.

I know!!!!!! My FIL's arrived from Israel yesterday and we were up at 5 am making sure their plane arrived.

Try to find somethign active that distracts you. The thing for me has been PS2! I can play that snowboard game for 15 minutes and I get calm. It just gives my brain something else to focus on. Also try working out (if you have time). I went to the gym on Monday and felt so much better!
