Confessions Wednesday!!!

I confess.......

1. I miss the Knot. When I say The Knot - I miss hundreds of posts, keeping up with everything, knowing every details of everyone's wedding. Come back to me old Knot!!

2. I hate planning my wedding from 2000 miles away. I feel left out of all the G2G, it's impossible to pick the best vendors when I have to book the only one's I can meet. I HATE how much it's costing my friends and family to come see us get married. It's an overall guilt.

3. I have been shopping non-stop lately and mostly for myself. I'm so selfish at the holidays because I get all my shopping done months in advance. What a weirdo.

4. I bought pre-natal vitamins last night. Kiss

    I confess.... 1. I was in total freak out mode this week. I was 6 days late for my period and was nervous that I was pregnant. But it came full force this morning.2. I bought myself a new digital scale because the IMO the one I have sucks.3. I'm getting frustrated with my photographer because they have yet to get back to me on when I can schedule our E-pics after 2 emails and 3 phone calls.4. I bought my son new toddler toothpaste because I thought the one he had smelt funny.

    Courtney: Pre - Natal Vitamins huh? Lol. Oh, and I miss the old Knot also. I was just thinking yesterday what a slow day it was on the boards.

    Lacey: Yay for coming home! Sucks I won't be able to make it to the G2G to meet everyone.

    I confess:

    1. I've had laundry in the drayer for two days now. I keep re - drying it to get the wrinkles out fromleaving it in there, but then I never take it out. I hate doing laundry.

    2. I'm not feeling the holidays this year. I just don't have that Chirstmas, happy feeling. I did some holiday shopping this past wknd. out of obligation, not because I wanted to.

    Courtney- Yes I'm Ashley. I do that too! I smelt it and was like there is no way I'm letting you brush with this!

    Stephanie- You added me on FB right? I added you back and I hate laundry as well. There always seems to be an abundance of it.

    I'm curious about the prenatals too but I dont want to ask something private. Foot in mouth
    So all I'm going to say is woo!
  • edited December 2011
    Court-Get those vitamins girl!
    Ashley-I would throw it out too...
    Stephanie-I always do that with my laundry then I get mad when i see my electric bill and its my fault.
    Lacey-Have a safe trip home!
    I Confess-
    1.) I am scared of driving by myself this weekend and doing everything alone.
    2.) I hate that my Fis freinds have barred me from their tailgate even tho I am going to be alone, all because I am a fan of the opposite team! Grow up!!!
    3.) I have been putting off wedding things because no one seems interested in helping me. I tried to take vacation time to head to Fort Lauderdale to get stuff down and my MOH says she is booked thru march..How is that possible?!?!?!
    4.) I love my Fi....I gave him his PS3 for Christmas already and now he really loves me too! Lol

    i confess...

    1. i'm so sad i will not able to meet any of you at either G2G because my engagement party is saturday! i wish you could all stay here after that so we could plan another one and i could meet you all :(
    2. i'm super over my e-party and all the drama it's caused. so much has happened, and so much has been done, i feel like it's come & gone already and it hasn't even happened. my mom, sis, and godmother have completely outdone themselves so i'm super thankful, but a lot has happened between "family" that has me super upset.
    3. i feel super behind. my wedding is in 8.5 months and i don't have a dress, BM dresses, invitations, or a florist. am i crazy, or do i have some MAJOR shopping to do for my big day?!?! LOL!
    4. i am more interested in buying things for my future home than my wedding!

    I feel better :) thanks girls!

    I think Court is ready to start making babies (if she doesn't have a bun in the oven already)!!! WOOOOOOOO!!!

    I confess:

    1. At the company I work for, the owner's brother is trying to replace me with someone he previously fired at his own company... and I just don't care.

    2. I worked on a sample invite last night and LOOOOVE the idea I came up with!! Sooo excited to show you ladies on Friday. Yes, I'm posting pics too!

    3. I bought my own xmas gifts from Fi and told him what he got me. He was amused.

    Ashley - yuck to funky smelling toothpaste!
    Courtney - you must be soooooo excited! im sure you'll be a bumpie in about 4 months ;)
    Stephanie - i despise laundry and i still live with my parents. i don't even want to know what that will be like when i have my own place!

    Karen - booo to your FI's friends! i say you have your own tailgate and don't include them. i'm sure you'll have more fun anyway :)

  • edited December 2011

    I confess...

    1.  I feel very disorganized, and I'm really dying to purchase a huge wedding planner book from Etsy - but they're so expensive!

    2.  I really hate my job today, it happens every few days but today I really hate it.  My boss (the COO) is crazy and I have no clue what he learned in college because he's NUTS!

    3.  My period is late.... I'm a bit freaked out.  :(  but I'm hoping it's that detox diet I did with a friend from work that screwed my cycle.

    -- Courtney - those prenatals are awesome for your hair and nails, but word to the wise, (and sorry for being so open) they can make you constipated.

    -- I bought my daughter new toothpaste too Ashely, I think the baby toothpastes expire or something because I have to change it every few weeks.

    Court - I take Pre-Natal vitamins too they are the BEST.  Only way I can consume iron and not get clogged.  LOL


    Steph: I've had laundry sitting for a week, because I hate folding.

    Lynette:  Can't wait to see the invites.

    I confess....

    - I can't wait to leave for NYC.  I hope we have a white Christmas.
    - I can't wait for Monday I am on PTO until January 4th. 
    - I am so stressed with a million things I need to do.  Everyday I think of a new person I have to buy a present for and I thought I was all done last Saturday.

    I am in a truly horrific, foul mood today.

    I have seen who are my real friends through this process and who just needs to go. I am AMAZED at how selfless some people are and thankful for them and truly appalled at how SELFISH others can be. I love that the people I give so much to just continue to take when I need them for once. I dont care about your petty drama when I have major crap on my plate. You expect me to jump when you have your daily crap but when I actually NEED you, it's not a big deal. For real, people SUCK.

    Sorry, today is NOT a good day for me.

    I say get rid of her Alissa. Court- HELLZ YEAH!
      I confess that I have been slacking on my diet. I'm going on Friday to get weighed after not going for a few weeks due to my work schedule and the holiday. I'm ready for them to yell at me and tell me get my ass in gear (they don't yell but will kindly tell me... get back on track). I am trying my dress on, on Friday and I"m sure that will be a big motivation. I have lost almost 30 lbs so I have to make sure the dress can be taken in enough. I better lose another 30lbs in a few months. I also stopped working out. I told my sister (who is thin) and she has been going to the gym to make sure she looks good which makes me feel crappier haha.

    Ashley: Yeah, I added you on FB last night Laughing

    Court, Ash, & Karen: Yay for hating laundry! Lol. I'll clean any day, but laundry... I put it off until I'm down to my last pair of knickers.

    Karen: Please drive safe this wknd.!

    Lynette: Lol on the gifts. That doesn't fly with my FI.

    Cinthia: I remember at my old job when we used to have PTO. I loved watching it add up. I used to take a week of PTO like every three months! We don't have any at my current job, just X number of weeks a year, and I've already pretty much consumed mine Cry

    Alissa: Lynette is right. People's true colors come out in the worst moments/situations. I think we've all been in your shoes before (as far as people showing their true colors is concerned). Think of it in the best way possible... now you know who's who... who to keep close and who to keep at a distance. I hope your day gets better doll.

    Goldie,
    I'm so sorry you are having such a bad day.  I had a horrible accident a few years ago...it can take alot of time to heal.  And on top of that, who is this person that is hurting you so??  You don't deserve that at all!!  Hope your day gets better!!  :)
  • edited December 2011
    Lynette-Its just like picking out bridesmaid dresses and trying to order my invites and find an officiant. Thanks for the offer but I just need to get my booty in gear!
    Lis-I am sorry that people are being the best they can for you! Though I havent met you, you seem like an amazing person! Dont let people get you down! I cut out alot of people at my time of need so i understand! Keep your head up and I am so happy that you are feeling better!

    1. I convinced my FI to buy me Vera Wang Princess perfume for Christmas (I wanted to wear it for the wedding), but now I am scared I am allergic to it, so I am going to make him return it before he even gives it to me.
    2. I am so excited about getting e-pics on Monday, I didn't think they would be in the budget. I am nervous about them too, I spent all day yesterday looking at people's pictures and for some reason I don't think mine will come out as good. Also, I am so frustrated that I can't find the dress I want for the pictures, I just have the weekend now and the malls are packed!
    3. I feel guilty about people giving me gifts when I know they don't have extra money to throw around.
    4. I am considering getting some sort of fake nails, but I don't know if it is a good idea. My nails are super short and I want them to look nice in e-pics and wedding pics.
    5. I feel really blessed this year to be able to get fun gifts for my neices and even more importantly enjoy time with my family. Last night my FI and I entertained for the first time at his house.

    thanks girls, it's just very frustrating and today was my breaking point. I just kept thinking that people I have known less than a year, people I have never met (like some of you amazing knotties) have shown more compassion than people I have known years and it just stings a bit.

    Lacey, I am excited for the GTG too, can't wait to meet you!
    Ashley, just keep calling that photographer, sucks that they aren't getting back to you. Good luck on getting to talk to them today.
    Stephanie, I just folded the laundry that has been in the dryer since the weekend this morning.
    Karen, have a safe drive, get a book on cd from the library to listen to, it always makes the drive go faster.
    melimagu, try to forget the drama and enjoy your engagment party. Don't worry about being far behind you will get there, try to focus on one thing at a time start with your dress then pick something else.
    Lynette, congrats on the sample invite, I can't wait to see it on Friday. I was going to buy a sweater for FI to give me, but they didn't have it in my size. I feel bad because I know he hates shopping, but I also want to have a present to open from him....
    Tiffdan2011, don't worry about getting a fancy book. I am just using the checklist on theKnot and then I have a three ring binder with page protectors to insert in contracts and whatever else I need.
    Cinthia, what a nice vacation I am so jealous!
    Alissa, feel better, at least now you know you have some true friends and can forget about the selfish ones, now you will be able to have more time for your true friends, once you forget the rest of them.

    Jennej24: Your E - Pics will be phenom.!!! Don't sweat it, they will come out beautiful. We can't wait to see them. Also, I took off my acrylics a few months back, just to save money, but before that I had them for two years. I love them. I think they're very low maintenance, especially for things like E - Pics and weddings. So I say go for it.

    Hi guys! I miss all of you.

    Alissa - I'm so happy to see you here :)

    My confessions are small.

    1. Tonight is our Christmas party and I kinda do/don't want to go
    2. Last night, my FI had to work an overnight shift. I get sad and hate when he has to and I feel bad that he'll think I'm crazy
    3. I'm so busy with school and work and I'm sad that I haven't been able to dedicate the time I can to my wedding plans. I really don't want this time to fly by and not enjoy and have fun planning every bit. I think I'll start now!

    I confess I am such a pig today, we had our dept Xmas potluck and we did desserts only!!!! OMG they all were so good including my strawbeery caramel cake!! My portion control for the day is out the window!
