Stress

I couldn’t get to sleep last night. I didn’t feel too well yesterday and I was really tired, but it still took me a while to get to sleep. I guess I’m a little stressed. Sometimes I feel like I have the wedding thing under control, and sometimes I feel so overwhelmed. I’m basically doing everything, all planning, everything, myself since I live overseas. Unfortunately I haven’t made too many good friends over here who I can ask for help…I get plenty of advice from collogues at work, but advice isn’t planning. Anyway, I’m feeling a bit stressed today, but I’m sure it will pass.

I am considering going home for a week in the spring though. The tickets from Europe to the US are pretty cheap in April. It might be worth it just to go home and get some help with some stuff, plus I would be able to hit some stores…. I sure miss Michael’s and Target!

We’ve now decided not to go to Bali. I did a little bit more research and found out that it’s not necessarily the safest place. I knew about the nightclub bombings, but the ”kidnapping and poisoning” that the State Department warns about sound pretty serious. The decision became final when I realized that Indonesia has been hit pretty hard by the bird flu. Now we’re thinking Thailand (like everyone else in Sweden.)

I think we’ll be going up to Bengtsfors this weekend. I have some serious wedding planning to do.
I hope you all had a nice Valentine’s Day! I didn’t get to see my Valentine yesterday due to miss-matched work schedules, but he did leave a beautiful bouquet of long stemmed roses on the table for me!
