100 days to go....

and I am starting to freak out! Where did all the time go? When you have a fairly long engagement (for me it was about 1.5 years), you can feel like you have an unlimited time to get everything accomplished. And today, on the verge of being in the double digits, I can't help but feel overwhelmed. Sure I've tried to get a lot done slowly but surely, but my to do list still feels about a mile long!

I suppose I have been feeling a bit overwhelmed about life in general. In 5 weeks I find out where I will train for my residency. After that, Mr Elk has about 2.5 months to find a new job. Then I graduate, we get married, go on a honeymoon, move, and start our new jobs all within a 1 month period. I feel like I've kind of put the wedding on the sidelines because there are so many other things occupying my brain at the moment.

But I can't procrastinate any longer. And most pressing on my to do list include:
1) figure out marriage license and name change information
2)make sure our friend is actually certified and ready to perform our ceremony
3)write our ceremony

All the cute little DIY projects I still have lined up to complete will simply have to come second to those on my priority list, even though the DIYs are tempting, as they seem like a lot more fun!

So hive, I am here today, 100 days from my wedding, pledging to you that I will no longer put off those most important details of the wedding day! Please, when I tempt you with ridiculous glittery self made creations, don't forget these words. Hold me to them. Yell at me! Get me moving in the right direction so I am not freaking out the week of the wedding.

Have you realized how much there really is to get done the closer you've gotten to your wedding? How did you handle the pressure and make sure everything was in place and ready for the big day?
