I've been MIA

Hey Knotties!

I've been MIA since Tuesday. Sorry :( A lot has gone on.

1. I lost my job tuesday afternoon. Them F*kers had me work on this crazy project since August....I finished on Monday and ten Tuesday at 4pm they go through this ridiculous BS about performance....which makes no sense because I haven't had any reviews, negative or positive, or PIP. However, it was a relief.....I really didn't want to be there. Aside from that because I was on TK at work, I just hadn't been on the computer. I had an interview yesterday for a position I applied for yesterday (see how God works?) We shall see how it goes. If not, FI said no worries.....do what I want to do! :)

2. My 5 yr old has the chicken pox. See? IT's good I don't have to go to work! LOL

3. I received the menu cards and escort cards in the mail. YAY. They look great. HOWEVER MOM has added xxx more people. So I have to get some more menu cards printed.

4. Anyone know where I can find the rhinstone band to go around the tiers of the cake??? I waited too late to order from ebay or save on crafts I think.

5. My bridesmaids dinner that was scheduled for tonight was cancelled. My cousin who was hosting it asked me tuesday what I wanted to do. It was for about 20 ppl at Maggianos. When I found out Wed that DS has chicken pox I said cancel. So she is gifting me the money she was using to pay for it and I can use for whatever I need. :)

6. I am soooo happy yall! I have 8 days left until Wedding day and I thought I would be stressed....but I'm not. I'm about to go to my trail for my hair at 1pm.

I think that is all my updates for now. Those who sent me PM.....check your replies!

    No I haven't checked Michaels but over the past 2 days I have been a couponing FOOL and they have some good ones this week along with Joanns. I'm going there this afternoon.  My cake is being provided by the venue along with catering. They asked if I wanted to get it or for them, I said I would. I guess that is the analness in me. I would be livid if it was the wrong one, not enough sparkle, too big crystals, etc.

    Yes I had 2 bridal showers last weekend. I will do recap later today MOM! LOL I'm low on photos because I didn't take any and my mom took hers with her camera.
