tomorrow is the big day. my event coordination debut. the "after-children" version.
send good vibes my way. please. i know it will be an excellent event. but i always get like this beforehand.
my ability to multitask on the rest of my life is not all that great. {you should see my "laundry room." please, anyone, send your laundress to my house to volunteer. you think i am kidding.} my personality is very well suited for event planning. i've known that. but if i had too many events, the events would consume me. i. get. so. focused. just one has filled my mind this week. to the paralytic point. do you know what i am talking about?? f r o z e n.
i've been watching friday night lights on netflix to get my mind off of my nerves about saturday. how did i miss friday night lights when it was on television?? it is so good. seriously. and nice to have something so good when it seems like all my favorite shows take a christmas vacation. that makes me sound like i watch a bunch of tv. i don't.
i mean, if you don't count pbs kids... but that's another entire debate. let's not go there right now. we will. someday. i want to... i feel like i could write a novel on the whole, snarky, judgey, we-don't-watch-tv thing. you know, for the mom's who are perfect. not. me.
anywho, i watch maybe 3 tivo'd shows a week. if they are all new. this isn't always the case...
but, yes, friday night lights is excellent.
and now i must fold a load of clothes. before the laundry wins the war.
xoxo, s
1. Glad your leg is better. Meant to send well wishes earlier but commenting is so hard from my iPhone.
ReplyDelete2. I feel like I'm always doing laundry. ALWAYS. And there's just two of us. I can only imagine after we fill the house with kids... maybe I'll train my oldest to be my laundress. But that's probably a decade away.
3. So excited for your event tomorrow - you'll do great! And I can relate on being hyper-focused. I'm a lousy event planner because it consumes my life and I try to make the rest of my week super laid-back before an event so I have plenty of energy. But this year I did 20 of those, which meant my poor husband had to put up with a lot of "I need to rest up because I've got X event on Tuesday." So glad this year is over.
Blessings!

ReplyDelete1. commenting from iphones is super hard. and, sadly, my commenting has dropped because of it. :(
2. just you wait... laundry + babies is an incredible shock. SHOCK.
3. thanks for the event encouragement and validation on craziness of hyper-focus. must. plow. through.
Good luck tomorrow-- you will be great!!
ReplyDeleteI hope it went well! And just a heads up...I'm depending on you to be the event coordinator for Cora Leigh's wedding. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh, and sometimes PBS kids is the bet option for everyone in the house. Especially when laundry towers are beginning to sway. :)
You are an awesome Mom, wife and friend. Blessed to know you, talented lady!!
I hope that the even went just as you envisioned it to, I can't wait to hear all about it. I am glad that your leg is on the mend. I just saw the pictures-- brutal.
