Yesterday was so busy my brain was fried before I was able to blog. This pre-wedding planning is a monster. I am attempting to think before I speak and use right speech, but I'm also rattled and definitely over-emotional, which is dangerous. My daughter has been a beautiful example of measured speech, except, when she's pressured she tends to criticize herself, which is wrong speech. She harms herself and, though I don't think she fully understands this, harms the rest of us because we love her and feel disturbed when she's hard on herself. But mostly, we are treading kindly and gently with each other, and last night we took a much needed break to watch a movie, "The Hundred Foot Journey", which relaxed us.
A lot got done yesterday. But it was so much, maybe too much, that this morning I feel differently about the flowers for the buffet table, and maybe I will not take the advice from the caterer. I'm going to give myself a day or two more to mull it over. Pausing is essential, if I'm not going to have regrets. And no looking back like an armchair quarterback when things are finalized. It will be what it will be.
