AW Monday

Sorry this is a little late today!

What do you have to AW about?

Not too much of an AW, but I'm actually going to be busy at work this week (finally). Plus tomorrow I get my ring resized... only took me six months. Though I think I may go drop it off tonight since I have a meeting at 9:15 tomorrow and the jeweler opens at 9. Don't want to be late for something not work related. I'm excited though. No more being terrified of losing it since it's too big.

MrsK, I'm sorry about your FI's family.

I don't have too much to AW about , my MOH had her graduation yesterday, she got a BA in Psychology, so I'm really happy for her! But other then that we haven't had too much going on.

Our e-pictures got rescheduled yet again, because our rain date got rained out.

MrsK Sorry to hear about your FI's grandfather especially where it's so close to his grandmother. 

Anastassiat - good luck with your e-pics. Don't try for this week though from the last weather report I saw it's basically going to rain until Sunday

My family and I went to Mohegan Sun for the weekend and I only lost $10 total! I consider any loss under $40 to be a win so I feel like I came out a huge winner! But if I had quit while I was ahead at both the roulette and blackjack tables I would be up a little over $100.

I honestly have nothing to AW about. I was in a wedding this weekend (which flew by and made me want to enjoy being engaged). I'm actually feeling depressed that the wedding is over and there isn't anything to do for it anymore which is weird considering it wasn't even my wedding!! I can't imagine how I am going to feel when mine is over!

I did notice that I missed a lot on the boards while I was away. Yikes!

MrsK.. Sorry about your FI's family! Thoughts are with you!

MrsK, sorry about the loss /hugs

Ana, sorry to hear about the rescheduling again. I'm wishing you no rain on the next day you book!

Not much to AW here. Finally feeling better since my run in with my food allergy from Friday afternoon.

Going to be crazy busy for the next 8 weeks. FI's summer hockey league starts tonight so he plays Monday nights and still Sat from the remainder of his previous season. I start boot camp tomorrow and it's every Tues/Thurs for 8 weeks as well. So there goes 4 days a week...
Meeting with a photog tonight who is amazing however heard from another couple that his price has gone up again this year and is over 6k! (His prices start at 2590 which I thought was more than reasonable, so we shall see what his 6k includes LOL)
Wednesday we're doing dinner with my cousin and her bf (both in the BP) and Friday we have a couples massage so our week is pretty packed. Oh and I have a craft show on Sunday.. Yikes. I'm dreading this busy week already LOL

No Judgy pants here! In the famous words of my friend Mark "we all have our nights". I'd be unhappy going to strip club. That was my only stipulation when FI and I talked about our b-parties. He mentioned that it was the original point of a bachelor party, but I also know to some extent he doesn't care that I made it clear I didn't like it. He's never been to one and said he never wants to go to one anyways, so he just playing devils advocate. Plus he's said before that he's glad our friend Mark isn't the BM/won't be planning the b-party because it would be get wasted and go to a strip club and that's not what he wants.

I am jealous I missed you singing Total Eclipse of the Heart. I would kill to see you to sing that!

Thanks sssdee and bar!

That sounds like such a fun night, MrsK! No judging here either. I quit smoking when I got pregnant 4 years ago, but FI and I still have an extra pack around "just in case" and, sadly, it does have to be renewed once in a while. Our favourite karaoke place that we used to go to got closed recently, so I'm a little jealous of you! haha And I don't really care about the whole strip club thing, I know FI has gone a couple times way back in his college days (and probably a few time after that, he just doesn't want to confess to it lol) and for me as long as he is just looking (and I know he won't really do anything else) I don't really care. hahaha

No judging here either! Seems we're basically like planet fitness around here, the judgement free zone. Anyways sounds like a great weekend to me! I wish I had the balls to sing karaoke. The hotel we stayed at this weekend had it on Friday but I couldn't get up and do it because I wasn't nearly plastered enough lol. But there was a hard core couple from Long Island that brought their own CD!

sssdee

I feel like everyone will have their serious judgy pants on reading this... I swear we are not alcoholics, it was just a crazy weekend haha


LMAO! I totally laughed at that!

Sorry, my serious judgy pants are in the laundry hamper to be washed so none here LOL

Plus I can't even say that with a straight face because on Friday morning I was so irritable and grumpy that my FB status included me looking sooo forward to drinking my face off as soon as I get home (Which I didn't get to unfortunately. Maybe next weekend haha)

Mrsk- so sorry about your FIs family! Not judgy at all here. I have definitely heard of that strip club, I am pretty sure the FI has been there for a bach party. My FI I think would definitely feel awkward if I was there too.

My AW is that I am going dress shopping for the first time on Saturday!! I am excited and nervous. So I am bringing a strapless bra, is that all I need?

I've also brought a pair of high heels, but they ended up having a few pairs at the boutique anyways. And I know they suggest doing your hair up (or just bringing an elastic to do it) if that's what you will be doing on your wedding day.

Yesterday we went as a family (FI, his parents, siblings, and grandparents) to a local mini golf course and went for ice cream after since his grandparents were in the state from the east coast. My FI told me last night it was the first moment we felt like a family since we've been engaged.

My AW is that I get to talk to my fiance yesterday for 3 hours. He is currently deployed overseas and that was the longest amount of time I've talked to him since he left in March.

I spent all day Saturday looking at venues and have been talking with different ones so that's exciting.

I guess my real AW is that we moved into our trailer last Thursday, though it still hasn't totally clicked that we live together and on our own since my family is next door and helps us out a ton! And today I got my washing machine to go with my free dryer so I can do laundry in my own house. Oh the excitement.

<div>I also wore spanx to help smooth everything out and because I will most likely be wearing them on the wedding day. A pair of heels can't hurt although DB had some when I went and I wore my hair up to make the zippers/corest tying/buttons easier to do without my hair in the way.</div>
