Wedding Etiquette Forum

What should you be doing right now?

I need to pick up my wedding band, finish the laundry, clean the house, start packing, pay some bills.I really just do not feel like doing any of those right now.






What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 

Re: What should you be doing right now?

  • paying my bills, blancing my quicken accounts, downloading Quickens Australia version and going through the stack of DHs mail that has been collecting for 18 months and entering that. Bourbon, the knot and ice cream won.

  • Going to class....but I'm seriously considering not going. It's too cold and rainy outside.

  • Cleaning the cat box, as well as the rest of the apt. And printing out the seating chart. And well, that's all I can think of for now. Mom is on her way up. I want to go get mani/pedis with her when she gets here, but she's being annoying and won't tell me where she is or when she'll get here. Ugh.
  • Making lists.  Making sure I get everything done or transitioned in the next two weeks.Following up with my boss on my training request to find out if I lose 1/2 of my honeymoon to go to Ontario or spend a few days in December in lovely, lovely Illinois.

  • I should be proofreading my paper for class tonight, reading a chapter out of a textbook for the same class, and reading and participating in a discussion for my online Eng. comp class. Oh, also I should be cleaning my house and paying some bills....I am sitting on the couch with my coffee watching Today.
  • I need to finish packing, look over my outline, get ready for class, and eat a breakfast that will carry me over until my plane lands at 8 :P
  • I should be working, but I'm not in the mood.  I'll knot and hide it from my boss if he walks by. December in lovely, lovely Illinois.If you come, moose, I'd love to meet you.

  • I have given myself a noon deadline to get started on my errands. I am pretty excited to see DH tomorrow.

  • I should be working.  The same thing I should be doing everytime I'm on the TK.  Employee of the Month I am not.
  • Aside from working, when I get home I have to do a quick cleaning of the apartment. My MOH is in town due to her grandmother's funeral, so she may be coming over this weekend. And my future stepFIL is coming into town today, so I mentioned to FI maybe I can make dinner for the 3 of us one night.  But right now you can't sit at my table because there is too much crap on it. Like mail and magazines and recipes. I hate cleaning.

  • I should be working - But I keep rewarding a few tasks with some time on the knot, so I think it all evens itself out.  Sooo glad my office doesn't block any websites!
  • Replying to this thread, obviously.

  • I'm at work and need to do work. Other than that? I need to make phone calls after lunch, get rid of some concert tickets I won't be able to use, and pack for my flight tonight. I have nothing packed. At all. I get home from work around 6. Thankfully it's just a 2 day trip.
