I have been so pumped for the Healthy Living Summit. But last night when it was time to finish packing, I found myself procrastinating, and nerves building in my stomach.
I couldn’t find the nail polish I wanted, although I eventually did find it in a random pile of paperwork. I couldn’t find the fleece jacket I wanted, although this morning I found it in a random drawer. I had the hardest time deciding what to wear today, I’m going from work, to my blowout appointment at Strand, to dinner at Solera. For now I’m pleased with my jeans, tank top and sweater.
Then this morning I realized the cords for my garmin and my ipod shuffle are both missing. I have no idea where they are. Thankfully I need to bring a gallon of milk home, so I have one more chance to go through my room in hopes that I find it.
Hopefully once it all starts I’ll relax and enjoy the moment. But right now it is so built up in my head that I’m starting to think of the things that could go wrong. Which is not a healthy way to think.

It will all work out and its going to be an awesome weekend. Just remember to breathe before you leave and you will find what you need! See you tomorrow!
Thank you, I will! Cannot wait for our dinner at Townhall Brewery!
um… yes i want to follow along 🙂 your commentary always makes me smile. what is your twitter handle?
Go figure the one time I don’t add it! I’m @Katie_lf
Oh Katie!! No matter what you wear or what nail polish you have on, we are going to love you! Can’t wait to meet you and hang out this weekend. 🙂
Deep down I know that’s true, but quieting my mind has been difficult.
Everyone is feeling the same way, just enjoy meeting new ppl, no one cares what you wear, just be comfortable and be you:)
I will! I’m just finishing up dinner with some wonderful girls, it is going great!
I have a stressful something coming up in my life and was running into issues with quieting my anxiety, too. I took to my journal and wrote down every single thought I was having about the event…no matter how silly. Getting them down on paper seemed to take away their power over my mind. Do you ever journal? AND will I be seeing you at the MN Blogger Conference next month? 🙂
I do journal, not as often as I blog, but journaling and writing lists really help me. I plan on going to the MN Blog Con, but am not sure if I’ll be able to get a ticket in the first round. Hopefully I’ll be okay with the 2nd or 3rd round!
oh i hope you are feeling less stressed and more together soon. that tends to happen when we least need it. but you will for sure pull together and make it wonderful!!
I have had some semi-panic attacks packing! Cant wait to meet you!
It seems silly to be nervous, but glad to know I’m not alone! It will be wonderful to meet you!
