Hello everyone...just wanted to say hey before I start catching up..

Well I am home now, I was supposed to leave Thur. but yesterday I got sick and was not feeling well so I decied to come home early. Adrian should be here Friday.

Let me ask this, I got a little stressed while I was there and started thinking a whole lot about what the next few months is going to be like, with Adrian coming here, no job, never been here before and then the wedding....I got real stressed thinking about things...Did this happen to any of you???

My mom keeps asking me if I am having second thoughts...I dont think I am I am just a little over whelmed right now.

Joanna

Joanna,

Welcome Back! I declare thee NORMAL!!!!

I think the stress is the same for all of us...I still feel slighted by folks who think all I did was fill out a few forms and Henry was here. This whole thing messed up my skin, my cycle :angry: BUT if you can spare some cash - get a PROFESSIONAL massage as often as you can and get pedicures and manicures...they take some of the edge off.

I agree you are NORMAL! :thumbs:

You might not want to catch all the way up on the posts :unsure: We had a few pages of massive venting and it definitely won't help your feelings right now :blush: or maybe it will help you feel "normal" :yes:

Welcome Back :)

You are feeling exaclty what I am now. I am soooooo overwhelmed, I got way too much on my mind and going on. Thankfully Rohan is very understanding, and he is trying to do what he could to help. When he sees I am stressed, He holds me and say usssshhh ussssh baby. He shows concern and wished to help more, it really helps. We are getting married in a few weeks , every Bride goes through stress before this moment. It is an exciting time, and a stressful time also.

My advice, treat yourself well, give your self some alone and quiet time now before he gets here to sort things out in your head, journal, and what burden you dont have to bear..dont Delegate responsibility.

Hi Joanna,

Sorry to hear you weren't feeling well and hope you'll feel better soon. I know I'm not at the stage you are but "pre-wedding jitters" are something else. It can affect different ppl in different ways. Just have faith and ask God to give you the strengh to make it through. You will be alright.
