the upcoming wedding is no longer upcoming, it's here. saturday's the big day. i am frantic and frazzled and have decided that i need to let some of this go. it will work out, or not, but if there is some kind of fiasco none of the attendees will care and will probably make some horrible story to tell about me later. i'd do it for them. i have been a total crazed person for several months getting this all ready. ok, the drama queen may have escaped several times but she reels back in after a few minutes, people should get over it. but this week the devoted groom and my mother had to get their part ready. gee, they seem to be frantic and frazzled. they had to admit that maybe i wasn't overreacting, occasionally, of late. the groom is in charge of the music. it's gonna be basic, laptop hooked into the sound system already available. he does not swear as a rule, me on the other hand..., but i've heard some bad words escape his mouth the past 2 weeks as he puts the music together. and i'll just get into one of the songs and it abruptly stops. i have managed to keep my mouth shut during his process, mostly. as he was prone to telling me when i was frantic, buck up it'll be ok. my mother is going nuts worrying about the relatives coming in. i pointed out they are all grown ups and it will be fine. i did not use the 'buck up' line on her. just talk her off the ledge. it's gonna be ok.
tonite is decorating the arbor, tomorrow is the rehearsal, friday centerpieces get made and all the relatives hit town, and then there's nothing i can do, it's the wedding day. getting my dress zipped up is gonna make my day. ok, that and actually marrying the man i love. he is very excited. how can you go wrong with a groom that is absolutely delighted to be marrying me.
it's gonna be ok.
