Thank you! and another update

I wanted to thank you ladies again for making me feel sooo special this week after the Bridal Shower / Bachelorette let down...

Britt - Thank you for rallying up the ladies... I can't wait till the 17th... I think I have been talking FIs ear off about it all weekend

I also wanted to share that I was taking to my SIL (my little brother's wife... who just turned 21 a few months ago) and telling her about my MOH and the shower/bachelorette thing and she felt bad. She even told me that she reached out to my MOH 2 months ago to see if she needed any help planning a night out and never got a response

... So she decided yesterday that she was going to plan it herself! She even sent out a FB invite to my friends last night and a few have already said they can't wait! But guess what... my MOH declined.... not to be fair my SIL did try to contact her before sending the invite (to make sure she wasn't stepping on anyone's toes) and she didn't answer her phone or respond to the message. That makes me sad.

So now I don't know if I should call my MOH to talk about it or just wait it out. I still don't know if she called my mom to tell her about the shower because she never responded to me when I told her she needed to talk to her. We are supposed to go on Thursday to pick up the BMs dresses and the shop is 1 1/2 hours away... so that's a long car ride to feel awkward through... Any thoughts or suggestions?

I hate that I have to go through this so close to the wedding... BUT I'm super excited now about the shower and Bachelorette party now!!!

Jen I'm sorry, I missed what happened. Did you post on here or fbook? I don't know the whole story but I'd say call her. It may be easier to get things off your chest on the phone via a long car ride.....unless your alone ith her.

Jenn - I posted on here and on FB... but TK ate it... the post is still up on the FB page...

Short story is... that my MOH and Mom were planning a last minute shower... and then last week my MOH texted me saying that she couldn't do it... the invites hadn't even gone out yet (for a shower on the 10th) and if I could just let my mom know that she can't plan the shower for me! So I told her that she needed to tell my Mom. She also backed out in planning the bachelorette party because since she's pregnant (just under 4 months btw with her 4th) she didn't want to go out anywhere because it would look bad.

The lovely ladies here got together on FB and planned a virtual shower for me and my SIL stepped in and is planning the night out for me.....

I finally talked to my MOH.. well via text since she won't answer the phone for me... she still didn't tell my mom... asked me again to do it. and said she feels like an a$$ but can't handle the stress right now. So to avoid anymore drama before the wedding I just told her that although I was dissapointed that health was more important. and left it at that.

Ah Jen I'm sorry for the disappointment! I love that the DW brides are here for everyone. I gotta get on FB more so I don't miss out on these important things! Glad your SIL stepped in!
