TGIF !!!!!

Blonde407

I confess I am having some severe baby fever :-(  Having to go to the doctor once every 2 weeks basically isn't helping either... seeing all the pregnant women in there makes me even more depressed.
I confess I haven't shaved my legs in over a week and I just scheduled a pedicure after work... EKKKK... I feel sorry for my nail lady LOL

I confess that I'm wishing I had picked different bridesmaids. Or none at all!

I confess that FI and I are going shopping today, and I will hassle him about spending money on clothes when we should be saving money for the wedding/honeymoon....but the same CLEARLY does not apply to me

I also confess as of today I only have 50 days! And that scares the crap out of me

I confess that I have eaten almost an entire thing of hummus that has 10 servings in it in the last 2 days lol... OOPS.  No wonder I can't lose weight lol

I confess that I am very depressed... DH is having to move to Grenada next year and although I can go, I am not. Why? Because I cant work over there and I just dont think its the responsible thing to do to go over there and not be able to work. Anytime I think about it, I cry. We will hopefully be able to see each other every month and a half or so (me flying over there), but since we have met weve never been apart for more than a week (which was only maybe twice?) and I could barely stand that, how the hell am i supposed to be able to do a month and a half?? :-( tears....OH and I am going to live with my in-laws while he is gone (18 months).... dont worry we get along great (theyre excited for me to live with them)

I confess we are having our AHR (at home reception) (at his parents this weekend down south) and i was looking forward to it till last week when we got the bad news about med school... I cant keep it together at home, how am i supposed to kkeep it together in front of all these people who will be asking about it?

I confess Im about to leave to go shopping because a) im depressed again and b) i need something to wear to the AHR...

I confess Ive had this weird feeling that I was pregnant, and then realized that I might have been taking expired BC this month....but Im supposed to get AF today or tomorrow so we will see...

I confess Im having a hard time getting rid of all my wedding stuff I need to sell...

I confess one of my vendors really screwed up my wedding...and now I can FINALLY write a review on them!

I confess we have watched Season 1 and 2 of Lost since Monday... yes 50 episodes :-) hahaha

DH and I had to do the long distance thing for a year (although yes, it was before we were married).  He was here in SFL, and I was in S California for grad school.  I was able to fly back about once every two months and between then we sent a lot of card and letters (like a one a week, I think we were keeping Hallmark in business!) we talked on the phone when we could (mostly weekends, because of the time difference our schedules were too different during the week, although I'd call him each morning when I woke up even if it was just to leave a message on his voice mail, and he'd call to say goodnight.  We also took advantage of webcams and IM.  We actually had several movie "dates" over webcam (we'd start the movie at the same time, and have the webcams on.. corny I know!). It was tough, but honestly I think it was a really good thing for our relationship.  We learned how to express our feelings and deal with being apart.  And those trips when we did get to see each other were always awesome lol  It takes work, but I think distance can help strengthen your relationship.  And atleast you'll be with his family so you won't be going through it alone (that was me in Cali.  That was one of the hardest parts, not having a support system there)

On a side note, several of my friends have also gone to med school in Grenada :-)

I have not done nearly the amount of work I needed to this week and I am not excited about being our Relay for Life Captain.

We have 1 year from today, and I wish it was sooner since I know next year will be crazy with my work 5k followed by wedding 2 weeks later, followed by Easter events 2 weeks after honeymoon return.

Eryn... the first year of Aaron and I dating was long distance... it is tough but you guys will get through it.  Just curious... what do you mean by "I cant work over there and I just dont think its the responsible thing to do to go over there and not be able to work."

Aw, Eryn, I'm so sorry honey. FI worked in Hong Kong for a while after we got serious, and we spent a lot of time on the phone and on webcams. Thank God for Vonage - he could bring his FL number with him and it wasn't an international call. I know how hard that is, even if we weren't apart for as long as you and your DH will be. I promise you'll make it through. *hug*

I confess that I'm sitting here crying for someone I don't even know. This girl I went to high school with lost her baby girl a few days ago, and I heard about it on FB. I didn't know her, but the thought of losing DD kills me, and hearing that someone else lost their baby, to SIDS they think, is tearing me up. I wish I could say something to her or go give her a hug, but we don't really even know each other. This could be the most awful thing I could ever imagine someone going through.

A wedding seems like such an unimportant thing now, when put into perspective after hearing this news. A lot of the stupid little details that I was fretting about (shoes) really don't matter now.

I confess thay I'm really excited for my "date" tonight with FI.  We aren't even going together and he's getting ready at his sister's house instead of our place... it's gonna be like an actual date.  I can't remember the last time we did something like this!

Jess- I cannot work over there because the only way that a person who is not a Grenadian can work in Grenada is if you have a skill that they dont, and even still they dont have many jobs. What I meant by responsible is I have some student loans to be paid back (which could be deffered since I wouldnt be working) but I know that its a bad idea and that we have to be responsible and pay them back now, especially since he will have a lot of loans from medical school as well. Just not a smart idea....

Thanks for the advice everyone... Ive already started googling ideas and stuff on how to deal with a long distance marriage. I know it'll be fine, it just sucks... really bad...really really really bad... so depressing thinking about all of the holidays, and our first anniversary that we dont get to spend together now because of this. It's just all of little things like that I am going to miss...booo...lol

Blonde407

Oh okay... I gotcha now :-)

Definitely invest in a webcam for nightly talks and other things... teehee :-)

Eryn, maybe this is just me but I say go to Grenada!! It'd be an amazing experience, it's not forever but it'd be better than being home without your new hubby IMO. 

I appreciate I don't know your circumstances and I am quite a flighty person so this might not be in your nature at all but you'll be amazed at what you can pull out of the woodwork if you need to in terms of jobs over there. Are there any programs/work visas or exceptions you get as the spouse of someone temporarily moving there? I think the heartache and cost of lots of flights over is worth more than the irresponsibility of not paying back a chunk of a loan. But if you say you can't, and I'm sure you've thought it through then **hugs** - Skype will become your new best friend.

I confess that I've had a stomach bug for 2 days and have taken the time off work and although I hate being ill, I am loving the somewhat forced relaxation!

I confess that I'm tired on Friday nights in and TV sucks so badly at the moment.

I confess that I can't wait to leave this town that FI and I are in in 5 weeks

I confess my birth control has made me lose weight but at my sorority reunion, my sisters have commented on it and I am pretending like i have a lot of self control haha I also confess that as a result, my diet is slipping a little but I'll eat better next week!

I confess that I'm not so excited about MOH being so close by this summer...It's going to be intense with work and the wedding and she is a lil emotionally exhausting lately.

i confess that i haven't been talking on here about the wedding i am in tomorrow...BIL's...because i am 100% not excited for it.
