    Why did I think I would be at all productive at work the week of our wedding??  I'm pretty much just passing the days dreaming about this weekend, wishing I could be at home packing and doing last minute projects, or checking on the weather in Cancun for our honeymoon.  If only days off grew on trees, I would have taken all this week off and next week for the honeymoon. 

    Any other September brides working most of the week before your big day?

    YEP -- I'm with you here!! :) I even thought of a NEW project to do....goodness.

    I only have Friday off this week, but thankfully my mom is here today through the wedding so she can help with stuff all week long!

    Aw, wish you had the week off to enjoy.  DD worked her wedding week and was so stressed.  She is in Cancun right now, hopefully soaking up relaxing rays with my new son-in-law and having a wonderful time.  

     

    You are going to be a MRS. soon!!!  Congratulations!!

    My wedding isn't until next weekend but I haven't had much of a productive week this week so I can only imagine how next week will be! Congratulations on your almost wedding day!

    I worked the week up to the wedding, and it was the most stressful, and probably unproductive week I had. I also worked the week after (we delayed our vacation until the following weekend) and I wanted to scream by the end of the week. I had a mile long list of stuff to do, which I never did complete.. can you tell I'm dreading Monday?

    Somehow I managed to work on my wedding day, between the time I got back from my hair appointment and was waiting to go to the venue. I had things I wanted done, so I pulled out my laptop and figured I might as well work remotely and keep my mind off the wedding.

    All I had to do was read the title of this post, and I say YEP!!!!

    Tomorrow is my last day and I honestly don't know why I'm here. My head is definitely not at work! It was nice of my co-workers to suprise me with a cake and gift today, though! I can't wait until Wed. when I'm off and can focus just on the wedding!

    OMG, right before I left for my wedding just happened to be the busiest time ever at work!! On top of that, the person who works under me was on a 4 week vacation (getting back right as I was leaving) so I was also covering for her and she has the most work out of anyone in my group. So I was going crazy and working super long hours when all I wanted to do was check the weather and try on my dress!!
