Happy Hump Day!

Good Morning, Ladies! I'm so glad we are already half way through the week! Having just come back from vacation makes me want to be at work even less. Do you know what I mean? I've got work all day today and then I need to go grocery shopping. Still haven't since we've been back and we barely have food in the house. I'm just not ready to get back into the swing of things, yet. What do each of you have going on today? Any wedding planning? I'm making the reservation for our rehearsal dinner today! Excited to get that done! Once I get to work I'll go through all of the other posts that've gone up since I was on the board earlier yesterday. Looks like I missed a lot. Hope you all have a great day!

Re: Happy Hump Day!

  • I know exactly what you mean, Kimmy! I always have a hard time getting back into things after vacation.

     

    I emailed our jeweler today to figure out what to inscribe in FI’s ring. I have a generally idea of what I want to do, but want to hear if he has any advice based on his experience. Today I don’t have much going on – just work and running some errands afterwards (ugh, I wish I could just go straight home from work for ONE day this week… not going to happen).

  • Going back to work after being on vacation is terrible! Your right, At least today is Wednesday! I got into a huge fight with Verizon wireless today. I have a family plan and my bf and her husband is on my plan. They moved and no longer get service at their house. Her contract isn't up until 3/2013 so she wanted to term her phone now. I called to see if they would waive the early term fee of $175 since she can't even use her phone. They can tell she has no service at her house but said "it's her fault for moving to an area with no service". Are ya kidding me! So people are supposed to shop for houses based of wireless service! I asked for a manager cause I was pissed! Ive been a customer with them for 14 years and they couldn't give me a break! I got the manager on and she said she couldn't help either because of the term fee, that's how the discount phones. Well her phone is a year old and is jus a basic phone...no data, no touch screen, no nothing! I'm so aggrivated with them right now!

  • good Morning!  I'm so glad it's wednesday... but this week has been going slowly for me :(  Now that my invites are out I feel like I have time to work on wedding stuff but I dont know what to do.

    yesterday I started worrying that everything that I'm planning isn't going to work together.  I'm starting to get nervous that I can't pull it off...  But I need to keep pressing on and get back into the swing of things.

    I need to start working on my fans.  I have them but I haven't decided how I'm doing them.  Kimmy, I'm really hoping you will post pics of your fans soon.  I need some inspiration.  Are your fans going to be programs too?  I'm debating how I want to do that.

  • Good morning.  I am at work right now, but I think that I am going to go home at noon.  I am not feeling so great.  I think its the meds.  I did get an email yesterday from the photog with a contract.  We haven't signed it yet because we still have a few questions.  Once those get answered, I may have a check.  Yay!

    Kimmy - I wouldn't want to go back to work either!!  I would much rather be in Hawaii.

    Lora - What were you thinking of putting on the ring?

  • Just got to work, here until 7 today. We have nothing planned at all for tonight. FI is sick, so he's going to likely be sleeping when I get home... just planning a quiet night I think with a good book...

  • Thanks Lora, I will check it out. I just spoke to a third person who is our rep for work, the hospital I work for gets a discount, she said she can't do anything cause it's not her area but she knows that the early term fee is a strict policy. Also the manager last night told me to suspend the phone for 6 months so that the fee goes down, apparently it goes down $5 per month. My rep just told me that she shouldn't have told me that because if u suspend a phone for 6 months t extends the contract for 6 months! I'm so annoyed!

  • Good morning everyone!

    I have twin granddaughters who will be 3 in March.  On Monday night I had Rachelle spend the night with Nana and last night was Joselynn's turn.  The important part of this is these two girls are so close they have never slept apart before.  They have 2 beds in their room but refuse to use them.  They always sleep all cuddled together.  The one staying with me did good.  My FI works nights so they got to sleep with me and the animals.  The one who stayed home did not sleep well.  It was fun to have some one on one though.

    My daughter did a hair trial on me this morning before work.  She is my hairdresser.  My friend who tool me for lunch yesterday had seen some tiara's at a local store and gave me a gift certificate that I could use to buy one if I wanted.  They let me take 2 home last night and we played with them this morning.  It looks like instead of a flower I am now having a pearl and diamond tiara.  Have to rethink the jewelry now.

    I am getting kind of stressed about getting everything ready to go for Friday morning.  I have to work late tonight and my daughters and I are have a spa evening tomorrow evening for mani's, pedi's and brow waxes.  We are then supposed to be going out for sushi which doesn't leave much time in the evenings to get things done.  I might not be sleeping Thursday night!

    Cathy - I hope you feel better.  You probably just need to relax a little longer.

    Jenn - I hate cell phone company's.  They are so ridiculous and in Canada are crazy expensive.  I was going to take my phone with me to Hawaii until I found out roaming charges are 1.60 per minute in Hawaii.  That is $96.00 per hour - how crazy is that!

    Kimmy - we know you miss Maui but we missed you when you were gone and are glad you are back!  lol

  • Good Afternoon...still at work and trying to get everything done. Heard back from the coordinator and my questions were answered which means pre travel letters will be completed tonight (barring anything coming up of course). Also received the packet we need to go through to answer their questions, people, menu, flowers, extras, etc.

    Hoping to hit the gym somewhere between all that. First dress fitting tomorrow. Its getting close girls!!

    <div>If that doesn't work, I would try going into the store and insist on seeing a manager to discuss. If you go up to the manager level and make enough noise, they'll listen to you and make you happy (unless its Time Warner Cable).</div>
