Last night I crawled into bed very late. About five minutes later I had the closest thing to an anxiety attack that I've had in a long time as it hit me....Sadie and Andy's wedding is four weeks ago. Then, my brain just went crazy running through everything I still need to do. At the top of the list, I still haven't found a dress to wear. I did have one, I mean, I am type A Terra. I purchased one several weeks ago, two actually of the same dress. I needed one for fabric to do a few alterations. But then, I somehow managed to give the wrong size dress to my seamstress to be altered and the one that fit me is now in pieces. A dress fiasco. She did her very best to fix it, but now there's just bad Karma involved. Last night I spent about four hours acquainting myself with every last dress site on the internet. I'm sure it will work out. At least that's what I kept telling myself last night. The fed ex man is going to be making a few visits to my house this week. Hoping one of the new dresses will work. This morning I started yet another "to do" wedding list and tried to get all of that stress down on paper. And even as I'm typing this I had to pause to write down four more things I just thought of.
Sometimes when it feels like things are coming undone in our house, I will laugh and start chanting to my kids, "just keep swimming, just keep swimming". There is some serious wisdom in Dory's mantra.
Happy Tuesday. I hope your morning isn't requiring a life jacket.
