there is exactly one week left before the wedding.
preparing for all that comes with a typical wedding has been an incredibly stressful experience. my fears have included a lot of things that i'm not convinced are really important but that have, nevertheless, disrupted my contentment.
for example:
i worry that guests won't enjoy themselves at the wedding and reception. this worries me because so many guests are coming from out of town, and i want them to have a good time. they are important to me.
i worry that i haven't done enough to prepare. despite all of the effort scott and i have put into the wedding, i still have that feeling of inadequate preparedness.
i worry that i don't know everything that "being a wife" means.
i worry that the things i've collected and made (branch displays, guest book, programs, slide show, etc.) for the wedding won't impress people. this might be dumb, but making things is a large part of my life, and i like it when people get the same type of simple happiness from personalized things that i get.
i worry that in a month i will think of things i wish i had done differently.
no, i'm excited. and i will be glad for the day to come and pass and for our new life to begin.
