Stressed......
For the first time, I'm really feeling stressed about the whole planning process. I have less than 2 months and still need to figure out a favor, BP gifts, get the ceremony in order, we have no idea where to have a rehearsal dinner, we STILL can't agree on a wedding song.....
These are all small things, I know. I just feel overwhelmed.
His mother is INSISTING on having another 'reception' in Ohio for the people that can't make the NY reception. Originally she wanted to do this past July, then changed it to the weekend after the wedding, which would have been best because I'm off from work (we don't do the HM til January because I'm in school). NOW it's going to be 2 weeks after the wedding because his cousin is getting married on the 15th. This means I won't be able to work for 4 weekends in a row (I'm a flight attendant and I only fly Fri- Snu). I'm also going to be in graduate school full-time by then. I just hope to GOD my midterms won't be then...
I tried to bring it up to FI earlier and he got annoyed.
I feel like an ungrateful brat, because it is so nice of her to want to have a party for us. But I just wish she'd scrap the whole reception in OH deal and just kick money in towards our rehearsal dinner or something. My parents have been fabulous and are paying for the reception, but we are paying for everything else. I am amazed at how expensive everything is getting.....
Sorry for the long post - it's just nice to have a place to go and vent without being put off.
