whelmed

POST PUBLISH NOTE: IT APPEARS I AM NO MOVIE BUFF AND THE QUOTE IS FROM 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU NOT CLUELESS...CLUELESS INDEED!

"I know you can be overwhelmed...and you can be underwhelmed...but can you ever just be whelmed?"

Good point. Ah Clueless, the answer always lies with you. Ok maybe not always, but lately I have been feeling that being 'whelmed' could actually be a highly plausible phenomenon. Totally.

Yes I have a ten page long, five tab wide spreadsheet to get a handle on The Wedding preparations (no I am not kidding). No I don't have screaming children to deal with (as I know a lot of my readers do). Yes I do have a demanding 40+ hour/week job away from this blog, away from weddings, away from my photography business. Yes I have booked every supplier needed for The Wedding, so I don't feel overwhelmed, I seem to have a handle on it, everything's cool. But I am definitely not underwhelmed.

I felt I still needed A List. So I made one. And promptly stuck it on our fridge as some sort of validation of my thought process. 'Here's my list for all to see - I dare you to not complete it!' is what it says to myself. I am promising myself not to get distracted by other shiny easier tasks on a bigger list I could have written. I could have made the list three pages long, not one, but these are the things I need to do first. So I will.
