by the time the third week of december rolled in, things were getting a bit frantic for me... i realized that i hadn't worked on the misalette. and i hadn't given the parish office a copy for approval. so, i had to check out the misalette i created in another wedding resource of mine, kasal.com, printed it out and went to the parish office to submit that. then, i had to call back the following week (which was 3 days before christmas) because the priest who'd go over it was extremely busy. okay so wait i did.
while waiting, i scouted for a florist with reasonable rates and a make-up artist who could create a miracle on my face. i really don't wear make-up and the very few times (maybe twice or thrice) that i've had to well, i look absolutely horrible. it's always a very white face and a dark neck. these two suppliers were actually not really on my must-get-superb-supplier list. but between the two, i knew i had to pick the make-up artist carefully.
while doing all of this, gotcha was still a priority, in the mornings that is. some say that i lost a few more pounds and i believe a did. they all think i had a diet they hadn't heard about or maybe i was taking some kind of pill. little did they know that planning a wedding and attending to a business at the same time will take its toll on anyone who tries it. for someone who is used to 10-12 hrs. of sleep 5 hrs really leaves me sluggish but there was no option for me.
there were a couple of non-working holidays that were announced by the president, dec. 24 & 27 (which to this day i have no idea why the 27th was declared as well). i used to welcome holidays as a much-needed respite from work but last month, all i could think of was, oh my god, will the suppliers be where they're supposed to be?
