Not Engaged Yet

Open Letter Wednesday

For the record, it took me 4 tries to spell Wednesday correctly in the subject. 

*****

Dear FI,

I am so excited for our date night dinner in the city tonight!!!  I can't believe we haven't been out just us since the day we got engaged.  This is very much needed.

Love,
Your FI

*****

Dear S,

I think we BOTH overreacted Friday & yesterday.  I hate fighting & especially with you.  I'm glad you knew that even though we were in an argument you could come to me when you heard the bad news about your aunt.  Regardless of anything, you're my bestie & I love you! 

Love,
R

*****

Dear Dr. K,

Please for the love of god figure out what's wrong with me & why my skin is so itchy.

Love,
Your Patient Who Can't Take It Anymore

*****

Dear Money,

Please come find me & never leave me.  Between the wedding, Christmas, & my trip to Grand Cayman I'm in desperate need of more of you.  

Love,
Poor & Stressed

    Dear Potential Future Employer,

    Please love me today.  Seriously.  I'll be the hardest worker you'll ever hire.  Just, hire me.  Or, at least give me another interview.  K?

    Dear Car,
    I treat you well and don't have excessive expectations at all. Why did your AWD light, traction light and check engine light all come on over the Thanksgiving weekend, not nice at all. This better not be expensive.

    Sincerely,
    I'm still paying for you!

    Dear Dad,
    I appreciate you financially helping out with the wedding more than you'll ever understand. However, you wanting to control things is not okay. FI and I are good with most of your suggestions, but there is a huge difference in asking what we think and telling us you've decided. This is our wedding and we'd like an input, it doesn't mean we will say no but we do need to think about think and discuss it with eachother.

    Sincerely,
    Your Apparently Ungrateful DD

    ps. Budget is not a swear word and FWIW many fathers would be grateful that I'm using the word.

    I have many many more, but I'll start with these:

    Dear Grandpa,

    Please please please get better and get out of ICU. The family does not need to lose anyone else. I will be coming to visit with little sis next week, so get better!

    Love,
    Your Granddaughter who prays for more time

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Dear FI,

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for finally telling your job they can shove it so you can come to NY/NJ with me next week. It's crazy that you already had 3 out of 4 days off and they were giving you a hard time about the one in the middle. I love you to pieces and I'm so happy you'll be there with me.

    Love,
    Your future wife

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Dear Dunkin Donuts in the Cloud,

    Please dear lord open soon!!!! I hate that you've been under construction and I cannot get my coffee from you on days I really need it. I am not a huge fan of Starbucks and neither is my wallet. Please reopen soon, we all miss you!

    Love,

    Dear cold,

    I think you've overstayed your welcome. I'm ready to breathe through my nose again and wake up without a headache. I'm tired of shoving tissues up my nose and I'd also like you to leave so my energy returns to me. I'm sure we'll meet again some day.

    Sincerely,
    Your tired, red-nosed hostess.



    Dear BFF,

    Why must you pick and search until you find something wrong in every man that you meet without giving him a chance? You're dating a good guy; if you want him to pursue you, then stop shooting him down. You need to learn to relax and not try to micromanage everything.

    Love,
    Your concerned friend



    Dear boss lady,

    Please stop giving me overtime. Although I do appreciate the large paychecks, I need some time off, but I seem to be incapable of turning it down.

    Sincerely,
    Your overworked employee.

    Dear Work,

    The new schedule you made is ridiculous. Changing the full time rotations without talking to isn't right. I already have two interviews set up, if you aren't willing to work with me on this I am very prepared to leave. Also, please get my blackberry up and running again, I can't do my job until I know where I'm going and who I'm seeing today.

    Regards,
    VERY angry employee

    Dear Interviews,

    Please go well! I really need a job where the management won't take so much advantage of me. Please hire me!

    Sincerely,
    Wonderful Prospective Employee

    Dear BF,

    Thank you for being nicer to my dog. I was worried you would ignore him even more when you got your new puppy but you really shocked me! I appreciate it, and I know he does too.

    I love you,
    your lovely girlfriend

    lol it was completely impromptu! We booked flights last night. I got the call yesterday that Grandpa was back in the hospital with pneumonia, and I decided I shouldn't put it off any longer. So I called my mom, she asked me to bring my sister "just in case", and we booked the tickets last night!

    My family is originally from NY/NJ, and as my grandparents' health started to decline, they relocated them back up north since we were the only ones down here. I haven't been back since 2007! Can you believe that?! 2007?!

    Dear Immune System,

    You suck.  Seriously.  Couldn't you have picked a different time to lose the battle against whatever illness this is.  This is a really bad time with four weddings and  a wine tasting coming up in the next two weeks or so.  Since you decided to lose, we're going to have to suck it up and deal after the 27th of October.

    Love,
    My Body.

    Dear Body,

    Why are you only hurting on the left side?  I am confused.  Not to mention in pain and dizzy as all heck.

    Sincerely,
    Me.

    Dear Good Friend,

    Please stop whining everyday on fb and every time we talk about something with your life.  I seriously love you, but you and your constant negativity are annoying the hell out of me.  You stay at home with your toddler, your hubs provides more than enough money, gives you love and attention to you.  You have a very nice home as well as great friends and family.  You have way more than most people and are basically living the dream...your glass is about to overflow, please stop acting like its half empty!

    Love, J


    Dear BF,

    I miss you, and so does your little buddy, please work less shifts in November so that we can spend more time together!  I love you and want to be in your arms!

    Love, GF


    Dear Friends and Family who have been supportive these last few days,

    Thank you all so much for the kind words and compliments about my mother and myself.  It is hard to be without her, but the support from you all has eased the pain and helped me to focus on the years that I had with her, rather than the 5 that she has been gone.  I appreciate the kindess beyond words.

    Love you all, J


    Dear God,

    Please make BF's 2 year old neice who has been sick since Friday and in the hospital all week better so that we can all stop worrying and she can get back to her adorable self. 

    In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  Amen.
