My boyfriend and I are exactly the same, I get really stressed and flustered and he's always fine and relaxed! Similar thing happened to me a few weeks ago, spent ages preparing and cooking a meal and as I sat down to eat it I managed to knock my plate off the table on to the floor, so not only did I not get to eat my dinner but I also had to clean it all up :( Needless to say I also got frustrated and cried and my bf thought I was completely over-reacting but oh well!

Love your christmas tree by the way! xx

Ooohhh!!! You changed the look of the blog, it looks great, really pretty just like you on your outfit of the day. Have a great Sunday.

Hello sweet Anna! And good Sunday morning!
I love the way you look in these pictures, and the Christmas tree looks beautiful too!!
I must admit I am the stressed part as well in my relationship, and I am also quite of a perfctionist, together with a little bit moody... especially in winter time! My boyfee, on the other hand, is more on the relaxed side but he aslo has his moments of tension!
It would be a great idea to blog about your ways to de-stress in life!
XOXO

Love that new 'outfit' of this page! :-)

I used to feel and react the same way about ridiculous things, and that stressed me a lot. So I simply decided by myself not to freak out anymore, whatever happens. When I drop sth. I say to myself that it's not a drama, I try to start laughing or singing or sth. like that and not to think about it too much. That works quite good for me, but I'm not a perfectionist at all. Life's too short to get mad about silly things. ;-)

I can be a bit high strung but pausing for a moment and breathing through it can really help :) You look great, those boots look so darn cozy!! I sent your xmas package today so be looking for it :D

2010-12-11T23:53:55.442+00:00

Hi Anna, Steve and I are exactly the same - I think it makes for a great balance - someone a bit laidback to even out my stressiness. Sounds like you and Jonathan are a great match. :-)

Thanks so much for linking to my blog! I haven't watched today's video yet but I'm saving it for tomorrow as off to bed now. Glad to hear you enjoyed the pizzas - it's good fun, isn't it?

I like your new blog style.

And your hair is great in these photos. Tree - really cute too.

2010-12-11T23:35:37.119+00:00

I'm TOTALLY the stressed out one in my relationship! My hubby is sooo easy going and laid back - it's certainly a good balance, but I strive to be more like him (but it's so hard!!).

I would have screamed and started crying too. Seriously.

Your tree looks so pretty - I love the red :)

Ps. I agree with what Ameena said, it does take courage to admit to those kinds of freak outs! Thanks for being honest and real.

Definitely laid back, I am clumsy so if I was to cry everytime I knocked something over, I would be crying all day!

2010-12-11T16:06:17.369+00:00

It's totally normal to be stressed about things like that,especially at this time of the year when the holidays are super stressful.

I love your outfit!

I'm DEFINITELY the uptight one in my relations...

2010-12-11T15:19:12.647+00:00

I'm DEFINITELY the uptight one in my relationship! I react the exact same way you do. The other day I was cooking stew and knocked out all the vegetables I chopped up, and there was onions and carrots and potatoes all over my floor. I skipped the screaming and went straight to crying (although I wanted to throw my dishes against my wall..). There was also a week where I spilled water practically every day. And it wasn't just a glassful, I'm talking about my pitcher filled with water being knocked off the table...

Being uptight AND clumsy on top of it really stresses me out... I wish I was more relaxed too... But knowing that someone as sweet as you has the same problem made me feel so much better about myself!! So thanks so much for sharing♥

xoxo

2010-12-11T14:38:33.530+00:00

I think this is the sweetest blogpost I have ever read, Anna! I've always loved following your videos and blogs and also your daily vlogs with Jonathan but I don't know, reading this post just now just makes me think you're so awesome!

I know it may not seem like a big deal but it takes a lot of courage to admit what you just did. I have DEFINITELY been there in almost the exact same situation- fretting over details just before a dinner party when my bf is all in "la dee da" mode and totally relaxed! :P

But it takes a big person to admit you can be a neat freak or obsessive over certain things and even to admit that you can get jealous at how laid-back and relax your fiance is. But I think you're exactly right - it seems to work so well for the two of you because you complement each other! He's hard when you're soft or you're forgiving when he can be stubborn, etc.

Anyway, why am I writing a novel?? LOL! I just wanted to say thank you for being so sweet and sincere and I think you guys are perfect the way you guys are! :)

2010-12-11T14:36:47.286+00:00

I'm the same way Anna. I'm a total perfectionist and a freak when it comes to the house looking perfect and everything going the right way. I have crazy reactions too. AND, my husband Tom is so very laid back. I guess that is why we work. I just wish I wasn't like this... what can you do though.
