Moral Support

Moving away from home at the young age of 19, you'd think I'd be used to it. And generally speaking, I am. However, there are times when you need your family. And this is one of those times.

The advantages far outweighed the disadvantages. And I am very glad we did it the way we did. And I would do it all over again, the exact same way.

I am speaking of our wedding in the Bahamas. Just us. The sand, the sun, Dennis and me and the preacher... and the photographer... the DJ.. and the wedding planner...and all the vacationers watching.

It's been 11 months now and for several weeks I have been contemplating having an anniversary party. It would be fun and a good way to include all those lovely friends and family (fingers crossed) that did not get to be with us last year on the happy occasion.

I have all kinds of plans in head... and fear in  my heart. I just cannot physically go through with it by myself. It's not that I can't do the work necessary. I can and I'd love doing it... in fact that would be the most fun (and really I would not even want someone else doing it) ... making sweet little decorations and stringing lights and decorating a cake and making finger foods.... oh the planning and crafting would be FUN!! 

Its the mental anguish I can't handle.

I remember so many occasions in the past when I'd agree to do something that someone asked me to do and then agonize over it for days until it actually took place and then I'd really (mostly) enjoy it. But it was days of stress. And in this case I'd be bringing it on myself.

But I also know I'll regret not doing it.

And will soon be a year since the follow-up engagement (ring included).
