    I confess that I am over wedding planning and am looking forward more to the honeymoon, pictures and just being married then the actual wedding HOWEVER I cant stop thinking about little things I want to add or change and that my wedding wont be enough or unique or fun or all these other adjectives I want it to be.

    I confess that I am very stressed with the decision FI and I made for him to quit working FT and focus on school and I dont know how we are going to pay for everything wedding related that has already been booked.

    Deepthi your wedding will be wonderful!!

    I really need confessions today!

    I have a suspicion that BIL is dating one of Courts' good friends, whom he met at our wedding, and it's really getting under my skin. BIL is a jerk. He thinks he's smarter than everyone and that he knows everything, he doesn't like kids and he has the most obnoxious dog in the world. And all of that would be bearable, but he's mean to Courts, and I hate it. And, in my mind, if she is dating BIL, or even just friends with him, that's like condoning the way he treats Courts. And if they are dating, they haven't had the balls to say something to Courts, and since she was his friend long before they even met, you'd think they'd at least give him that consideration. I know it's petty and I shouldn't let it bother me. I don't even know for sure if there's anything to be bothered about! But it's like this constant irritation in the back of my mind every time I see them commenting on each other's posts on FB.

    ETA: I know it makes me sound crazy, I just had to get it off my chest :/

It's more enjoyable for us and everyone around us this way.

    Makes sense. I would just rather run around trying to make time with everyone on Christmas rather than not see my family at all. Personal preference, I guess.

    I confess that I'm not thrilled with the idea of going to DH's family for Christmas.  I love his family dearly but they don't plan anything out.  Since this will be a hard time on my mom we agreed to stay the night at my mom's Friday night so she could have us all under the same roof Christmas morning and she won't be alone.  That wouldn't be a big deal if DH didn't insist on driving to his family's for Christmas eve and they aren't even starting anything now until 7pm.  That means we don't even start until 7, we eat, open presents, visit and then have to leave.  We probably won't leave until 9ish and it's a 2-2.5 hour drive back home.  So we get here around 11-11:30, drop of DH's daughter with her mom and get to my mom's around midnight.  We then have to put together my mom's Christmas present and then finally go to bed (probably around 1-1:30) and then my niece and nephew will wake us up at 5-6am ready to open presents. 

    I understand, and agree we should see his family but not so freaking late when we have to do other things that were already planned way in advance.  Also he hasn't even called any family member to see if we have somewhere to stay Thursday night.  Just not looking forward to the trip this year.  We saw them at Thanksgiving lets do my family for Christmas.  Oh well!!

    I confess that at first I thought it was really weird that FI's family doesn't "do" holidays.  Now I'm so glad  because it means that he's able to experience the holidays with my family rather than working which is what he did since his family did nothing.

    I confess I am dreading going to the ILs for Christmas.  I JUST saw them all in October at the wedding. That's enough, isn't it?  And it's not because I would rather see my family.  I would rather stay here.  I've just had enough of his family for at least 6 months.  I know, I know - suck it up.

    I feel for all of you that have to split the holidays!! That is definitely harder than deciding which holiday to dedicate to which family...which I have a difficult time with.

    I confess that I wish one of my BM's would quit so I don't have to unceremoniously fire her. I have been putting this off for over a month--I guess deep down I am hoping that she sees the err of her ways and realizes what a craptastic friend she has been lately and apologizes. FI would smack me if he knew I still felt this way since he wants to unceremoniously give her a piece of his mind.

    Deepthi, I confess that I think your mom is looney tunes. Your wedding will be awesome!!!

    Renee, I confess that I am a White Christmas wisher. After growing up in Maine, there isn't much else that makes it feel like XMas for me. I wish I could be there this year!

    luckily our split holidays wont be as bad this year, we're spending christmas eve with the FI mother, grandmother, and mothers extended family...christmas morning at my parents, and then dinner at his fathers...

    granted we have to drop his mother off at the airport at like 8:30 am christmas morning, we wont be at my parents till 10...and leave at like 5...i feel like my family is being rushed, but...it's not worth the argument...i'll pick my battles. lol

    i confess that i'm going to murder this chick at a different office if she doesn't leave me alone...ugh!

    We have a book exchange in our building.  The way it works is you take a book, read it and return it.  And you can volunteer your books for others to read.  I just took one and I'm not brining it back. 

    I am going to cause a big stink at work, if given the opportunity.  It's just me and the crab this week and I'm almost at my wits end with her.  She is not a team player at all.  She keeps piling work on me, wanting me to go run errands while she sits in her office reading.  Besides that I'm on here, I have so much to do and I can't take a few hours off to go run errands because she refuses to do anything.  But if I do end up having to run them, you can bet that I will be taking my sweet ass time.  "Ooops, there just went my bus.  Oh was that another one?  I'm sorry I'm so late, I took the wrong bus by accident.  The bus was just so close to my house."

    I also confess that when I sign MIL's birthday card next year, I want to write Your daughter-in-law or something full of snark or actually address it myself and put "DH's Ma"- she hates being called Ma.  I'm also having a hard time not sending everyone but her a big pile of presents this year.  So in general I am having a hard time not acting like her right now.

    Regarding splitting the holidays....

    I JUST had a huge blow out with my FFIL and his wife over this.  They demanded that we come to their house for Christmas (which is in Killeen).  I refused.  For the past 4 years, we have done the weekend before Christmas with my dad's family, Christmas Eve with my mom's family, Christmas morning at our own house (we have a little girl... so Santa gifts are opened and played with) and then go to my FMIL's for Christmas night.  My FFIL and his wife are normally MIA for the holidays anyway and now, all of a sudden, they decide we HAVE to come? Um, no.

    I offered for us to go down there to day after Christmas and they had a huge fit about that... and didn't talk to us for a few days.

    I guess they finally conceded and we got an apology phone call from them, asking us to come down Sunday.

    I.win.

    haha, that's AWESOME! epic win! :) we normally have the same thing as well...except we NEVER know where any of our family is going to be, it's always been known that...first come, first served. Whichever family makes their plans and lets us know first, then we let the others know. With the FI parents split we like many others have at LEAST 3 places to hit for holidays. Last year it worked out that both my parents and his father were out of town for christmas, so we did it either the weekend before or after the holiday. it worked out great...this week...will be a drive around! not looking forward to it!
