A is for Anxious

I've been having sudden moments of becoming EXTREMELY overwhelmed and while everyone seems to think it's due to wedding planning it seems that wedding planning is the only thing that is bringing any kind of joy and consistency nowadays.  I've become a patient of retail therapy which is not at all helping my situation but the thought of decorating my future home makes me happy in an incredibly special way.  I need to clear my mind so here is my list of things I need to do to get some inner peace.

1. Get a job (although I do love being at home all day)
2. Get rid of my facebook (I'm only keeping it to keep informed about the wedding, but is it worth it?)
3. See my fiance (He'll be home in 10 days for 3 days.  Better than nothing I suppose)
4. Stop listening to such somber music (Sea Wolf, Bon Iver, Iron and Wine, The Antlers...No Bueno)
5. Count my blessings (Which are numerous)
6. Stop talking to people when I know they're going to piss me off (And they always do)

This'll do for now.  On a much lighter note, I've made a few things for our future place that I'm quite proud of:

A shadow box with the rose Dan gave me when he asked me to be his girlfriend and the one he gave me when he asked me to be his wife.


Initial pillows to put on our couch.


A cover for the Baha'i prayer book from my future in-laws


Scrabble coasters with things we love and jokes of ours


And measuring spoons that I painted for a little pizzazz



I just need to remember to breathe.  I'm in a great place in life, might as well take it all in because it's definitely going by fast.
