    Dear Work,

    I thought when someone leaves the point was to slowly transition them out of their job and let the new person take over not pile as much work on them as you can just to see what they will get done.

    Dear Co-worker,
    I know you think taking over my team has given you some right to be on a power trip but really everyone sees it and is losing respect for you.

    Bobbileigh

    Dear Self,
    Quit stressing over all the little things that you have no control over, you always do this and it never turns out good so just STOP!

    Bobbileigh


    I really wish I could take my own advice!

    Dear Coworker,

    I vent about you daily.  We all think you are weird, and that makes me sad, but if you weren't so odd, we wouldn't think that.  Please stop slurping, sighing, tapping, and talking to yourself.

    Thanks.

    Dear coworker,

    You might want to pay attention to some of the information you give out over the phone when you are at your desk.  For instance, yesterday you gave out your phone number, home address, and credit card number over the phone.  Someone could do some serious damage with that information if they wanted to.

    Just saying,
    Me

    Oops, I have another one.

    Dear Body,

    You need to quit with the queasiness! It's been a week and I can't keep any breakfast in my tummy because of you. What the heck is wrong with you? Let's get over this bug and move on. I'll work with you if you work with me.

    Dear Texas Weather -
       Thank you for not raining on my bridal portrait day...but did you really have to be the hottest day of the year so far?? Don't you know I will be in a heavy wedding dress trying to look pretty and all you want is for me to sweat my tooshy off just because I have been asking you not to rain!

    Dear Self -
       Yes I know you have a TON to do before the wedding gets here....but the invites are out now and the rehearsal invites are going out soon. Chill! Please stop ignoring the gym, and the housework, and get to bed before midnight at least once this week - you need your beauty rest!!
    Yours Truly,
    Linz

    Dear interested Knottie friends,

    Sorry I didn't post again yesterday...work...bleh! I have been doing well, albeit extremely busy with school and dance! We just had our concert this past weekend and this is the last week of school before finals so things should be a little quieter for me except that we bought a house and are moving! We are supposed to close when I go on my trip to New York with my dance company but luckily we are able to move in before that happens. I have not narrowed down my wedding pictures yet, they are still in like 7 albums on facebook but once I narrow them down to a reasonable amount to share I will! Unless you just want to see them ALL but I warn you, there are about 1200 of them hehe. Anyways glad to see and catch up with those of you I know! Thanks for thinking of me..that is sweet!

    Love,

    Apple

    Dear nail salon super close to my house,
    I'm trying to give you money, the least you could do is answer the phone so I can set up the appointment.

    Dear Tuesday,
    I hate you so far. 
    Kthnxbye,
    Julie

    Dear Knotties,
    I want opinions.

    Recently, I was invited to three showers through work; all three of them had very specific invite lists (in other words, only certain people were invited).  I was invited to the wedding for the first shower.  However, for the last two, I was not invited to the wedding.  This last one is for one of our former students whose mom works here.  I had him in class for five years but haven't heard from him in six.  Since when do coworkers of the parents of the bride/groom throw a shower for the children?  I am thinking about not giving a gift at all.  I just wonder if I am completely missing something here about etiquette or if this is the new norm.

    Thanks,
    Julie

    Apple,

    I dont know you but your bio looks awesome and I would love to see your pictures

    Signed: A newbie :)

    Juliebug, even the idea of being invited to the shower and not the wedding seems very gift grabby to me unless it is a shower that was just held at work by everyone but you said it had specific guest lists.  I personally would be inclined to decline the invite.

    Julie,
    One of my mom's friends (who is her former principal) has expressed interest in throwing a shower for me, for my mom's group of friends to attend. I don't know if that's proper or weird or what. However, the guest list will only include people also invited to the wedding.

    Anna,
    See I don't have a problem with that so much as what is going on here.  I looked at the invite list because we can see everyone who got the email:  probably 2/3 of the people on the list didn't even work here when her son was here.

    Dear Knotties who want to see my wedding pics,

    I will try to upload some to my bio this weekend but no promises! I am thoroughly enjoying being lazy after a week of non stop LONG days! :p

    My shower hosts invited people who were not invited to the wedding.  I felt a little off seeing these people at my shower who I knew I didn't invite and they weren't on the list I gave the hosts.  It wasn't intentional on my end and I'm pretty sure the hosts weren't up on their etiquette but I really hope they don't think I was being gift grabby.

    Dear Donna,

    Dear Self,

    When you are being photographed sitting down, cover your white tree stumps for legs. Pregnancy has not been kind to your once toned legs, so for now pretend that your legs are like your boobs: not to photographed or seen (hopefully) by anyone. Good lord.

    Good luck getting your body back, you pregnant fool!

    Dear Julie,

    I would feel weird about being invited to a shower that I wasn't invited to the wedding for.  Maybe go in on a gift with someone to lessen the expense?

    Dear awilkins,

    We're putting together little doggie treat bags with organic baked goods from Three Dog Bakery.  Our guest hotel allows pets and we have quite a few people bringing their dogs.  It's really dorky we're doing this, but it's actually one of my favorite DIY projects so far (because I love animals!)

    Dear Flat Iron: 
    I hate you. Why did you have to die on me in the middle of the week when you know I can't afford another until Friday. My hair officially hates you forever. But I'll miss you.

    Dear Work:
    I love you, but these customers. OMG. How stupid can a person be?
    Here's hoping for more intelligence tomorrow!

    Dear Foster,
    Thank you so much for sleeping in the chair. We all sleep so much better!

    Donna-

    That idea is so cute!  FI's aunt and uncle are visually impaired and have seeing eye dogs.  If they come to the wedding I am so stealing that idea!
