long week

well, it has been a long week to say the least. but after today, i can say i have only one more full week of work left until i head to tampa to prepare for the big day! i'll have two amazing weeks off and i couldn't be more excited. i haven't taken more than 2 days off from work ever...so this is truly going to be incredible.

in other news, i'm starting to feel the pressure...any brides out there have advice for a bride-to-be getting married in 2 weeks?  i feel like i'm being pulled in all different directions by lots of different people that need me to do certain things. and on very little sleep. it's exhausting. i want to be able to relax and enjoy the next 2 weeks...not be hot-tempered and short-fused! i'm hoping after i finish the rehearsal dinner seating this weekend, i will feel a lot calmer and will be able to soak up my last week in dallas and get myself excited for the big day. i know once i get to tampa, i'll feel much better, but getting through next week may be tough. i feel like i'm balancing all sorts of feelings...anxiety, nervousness, happiness, perfectionism (can't help it), excited-ness. maybe i just need to take a xanex haha. anywhoo, i have a whole lot of nothing planned for this weekend (yipeeee), so i'm taking advantage of nobody being in town so i can veg.

 

1.  i am proud of myself for moving to dallas where i only knew a brother and sister-in-law and creating a life here on my own - meeting trey wasn't so bad either :)

2.   this weekend i will   be finishing some last-minute wedding details, soaking up some sun and lounging with my fiance.

3.  a secret dream i have is  to quit my job and move to italy for a year with my hubs

4. i can't handle   when people are fake and judgmental...it's just not right and there are too many of those people in dallas.

5. the most annoying thing in the entire world is   traffic and a long airport security line

6. the most relaxing thing in the entire world is   getting a pedicure or sitting on the beach with a cold drink in one hand

7.  i think everyone should  educate themselves more about politics. i admit i'm guilty of following whichever side my parents agreed with when i was younger, but our generation is the future and we need to spend the time to educate ourselves about the candidates and what they really stand for/plan to do once in office. so many of us waste our time believing into the media hype, and it's pointless. okay, enough from me.

hope everybody has a wonderful weekend, and if anyone has any stress-free tips, please feel free to send them my way :)
