Natalie/Em's ramblings

Life is... complicated, exhilirating, and frustrating!

Ok, so I'm feeling completely overwhelmed today. Sigh. It's the homework and the Samhain party. The homework can't be helped but the Samhain Party is another story. Ok guys, most of you are still my friends. I need help. I need it desperately. I can't cancel the party because I already paid for it. I don't want to cancel the party. That would make WOM look bad for one thing. I do know that if I can't get anymore help we aren't going to have one next year. I understand, more than anyone else in the free world (LOL), that people are busy and have alot going on. I'm busy and I have alot going on, too much in fact, but I made a commitment and when I do that I stick to it unless there's a death or I've had a complete nervous breakdown (which hasn't happened yet, though I'm getting close). Amanda and Kerry are the only help I have left for this party. Everything is still up in the air. The only commitment I've had from anyone is that Diana promised to do henna and face painting again this year. I have no games for sure, I have no tarot or palm reader for sure, I have no dj for sure, we have no idea what anyone is bringing as far as food, and we have very few commitments from people that they are actually coming. Throw me a bone here. Who is actually coming to the party? Am I making myself crazy over a party that ten people are going to show up to? I'm to the point where I'm afraid to actually ask anyone to do anything. I'd start calling people but I am afraid no one will return my calls. Believe me I've had this experience enough times to know that is a distinct possibility. I need commitments from people that they can and will actually stick to. HELP!

Blessings,

Natalie/Em

Okay OKay...I know you dont know me at all. Throwing partys is extreamly hard. and when you are the leader trying to throw it together and not much help, even harder. Step back close your eyes put your hands in the air not in a fist either. and breath slowly. do this for how long it takes until the answers come to you. when i do this the answers always come to me. you can see faces and what they should be doing. you can see where you want things to go and what they should be doing. maybe you should come up with a differnt approach, with talking to all of these people about what you have in mind. call a meeting together with everyone. maybe you already have. but what i am saying is you really really need to step back and breath take a moment and breath. life is to flippin short. and i am sure that by the time the party comes you will be ready and it will be a big hit.. so good luck. oohhh and sorry for reading your page.. i was bored and surfing.. was not snooping.. well maybe alittle.. anyways sorry...
