Confession: I don't feel like doing anything at work today! 

Vent: We are packing up to move into our new apartment next weekend and I am finding out that my FI is slightly a hoarder! He is killing me. He won't get rid of anything. He keeps saying we may need this or we may need that and it's JUNK! I keep tell him we will be getting a lot of brand new stuff in the next year so we don't need all of our old stuff that we used in college, that most of it isn't even usable anymore. He is like his dad more and more everyday and I don't know what to do. I think I am going to slowly sneak the junk out of my house when he is gone and he will never remember that we had it.

Confession: I fully intended on getting a summer job, but I'm feeling very unmotivated to do so! Vent: FI's job! He has been out of town since Monday and I miss him like crazy!!

Confession: I have been looking at too much wedding stuff at work

Vent: All the ministers/officiants in my area are EXPENSIVE >:( Definitely did not budget that section right, though they shouldn't cost almost as much as our entire venue

Ugh my FI is the same way!! We have two sets of a lot of kitchen stuff. "Just in case" Not sure we will ever need two sets of pots and pans! Plus like you said, new stuff will be coming in the next year or so!

Confession: I've been dicking around online at work a lot lately. I make sure to get my stuff done but because my project is slow I have a lot of free time.

Vent: FI is planning on going to Laconia for the bike weekend with his uncle which leaves me home alone with our dog from Friday-Monday. I'm not looking forward to it.

P.S. I love my dog but she can be a pain in the butt. I'm planning on taking her to daycare tomorrow so she'll be tired at least tomorrow night and then she and I can do walks this weekend.

Ooooh thought of another Confession! I've been babysitting FI 's cousin's 14monthold. He is the best baby and super cute!! It's totally giving me baby fever :

Vent: FI and I booked our venue without either parents seeing it. They were happy with the price, and as long as we were happy with it, they were happy with it. Our coordinator was so wonderful and thats one of the main reasons I booked there. My mom has gone in 2 seperate times to make PAYMENTS as in giving them money, and the coordinator has been nothing but rude to her. The one time my mom came in her work clothes (scubs she is a rn) and it was clear she was on her way to work, the lady just sat there on the phone laughing and not giving my mom the time of day. It is just so upsetting that she is not having as good of an experience with them as I thought I was having, and of course I dont want my mom treated badly, especially when the times she is going in is to fork over money. I dont know if next time I go in if I should same something to the coordinator or not.

Confession: Our guest list is giving me major anxiety right now. Initially, we were at 175, and somehow in the last two weeks, it's crept up to 183. We were trying to keep it at 175 because anything above that and we need a larger bar package, and we're pushing the capacity of our tent (moving up a tent size and the larger bar package is going to cost nearly an extra grand, by the time taxes and everything are added on).

Vent: My fiance decided that it would super awesome to start arguing with me first thing this morning. At like 4:45 a.m. I'm so out of it in the mornings that I'm not even sure what exactly he was mad about.

Confession: I've been slacking of on some of the wedding planning. FI and I started talking about guest list last week, but that kind of died off and hasn't been brought up again. I know we still have plenty of time, but I just like crossing big things like that off my wedding check list.

Vent: FI got his summer schedule and he's working Saturdays and Sundays, and has Tuesdays and Wednesday off. I have a regular office job, so I'm 9-5 Monday-Friday. I'm a little sad, but trying to stay positivie and keep telling myself that it's only for the summer time.

Confession: I'm also spending too much time looking at wedding stuff at work. To the point where for my lunch break I've started watching wedding shows on youtube. I get an hour lunch break, but I work a half an hour from home, so I can't go home, and I work alone in a satellite office. So there's no one here to tell me not to. And if I'm not looking at wedding stuff I'm doing grad school work. So terrible. 

Vent:  I went back to the eye doctor yesterday and they switched me to some weird kind of contacts. There's really thick and gelatenous feeling and suction to my eyes so they're hard to get out. And they're going to be expensive. I see better, but not great. I have to go back again next Wednesday too. So stupid. 

Vent 2: I have to work on Saturday, which is unusal for my job, but occasionally necessary. Then my parents are coming all day Sunday. Which means I don't get a weekend to relax. And next week I'm going to be working like ten hours of over time. I'm ready for next weekend NOW.

I wanna play!

Conf : I havent really done anything at work today but play online, look at stuff for the wedding and for my son's first birthday.

Vent:  Why does EVERYthing have to cost so much??  Trying to plan all this on top of normal bills and trying to save for baby #2 once we are married.

Confession: At times I have baby fever just because I want a 3 month vacation from work. So sad I know..

Vent:I just had to break up a fight between three ghetto girls at work. I then had to call each of them in separately to discuss professionalism at work (we work with individuals with ID). Now I have to get my boss to come in and have a meeting with all three of them at the same time because there is no way I can handle the three of them at once (picture girls with long nails, hands in the air, threatening to pull hair, and call the cops). I should have an interesting story Monday afternoon haha

Totally need to vent today: So I'm back home because I just graduated from college. Moved out of my apartment last month. My roommate didn't clean anything and then left. The FI was nice enough to go back up to my apartment and clean it spotless. We are talking 3 hours scrubbing. Just found out today my landlord is still keeping money because it wasnt "clean enough". When we got the apartment it wasn't clean at all. I have a feeling he just does that to keep the money. Now I have a feeling the ex roommate is going to blame me. Are all landlords this sucky? Vent over.

We had our previous landlord keep some of our deposit because the apartment wasn't clean enough. The only reason we dind't clean it all the way was because we were kind enough to tell her that it's ok if she lets the tenants after us move in the same day that we were moving out, BUT they ended up getting there a few hours before the time we agreed on, and were just hanging around while FI and his friends were carrying the furniture out - very creepy! So of course we didn't stay to finish cleaning since it would have been even more awkward with strangers there! Anyhow, that is my old landlord vent, our new one is awesome though! And also, there are certain laws that landlords have to comply with, they are different for each state but are pretty easy to find if you google. Good luck!

My landlord from when I was in college not only kept our deposit even though the house was clean, but tried to charge us extra for things that weren't our fault. Like the back entrance to the house had a small, old wooden staircase and one the railings came off because the wood was rotted out. We even tried to fix it and it just broke again. My FI's mom does something working with protecting people from getting sued, so she wrote me a super legal sounding letter that I sent to him and we never heard from him again. Never did get my $400 back though.

Confession: I love seeing everyone's engagement rings in their siggy!!

Confession #2: I have HORRIBLE baby fever. Last semester was my Pediatric/Maternity clinical semester of nursing school and being around babies all the time made me want one so bad! FSIL just had a baby boy 6 weeks ago and I am so in love with him! I thought maybe he would help tame my baby fever a bit but no, being around him all the time has made it a million times worse! I think FI is sick of hearing about how badly I want a baby haha

Vent: ...I guess I don't have one today!

So much baby fever around here! Our friends just had a baby six months ago and everytime we see them I start my period. And I'm on BC and it'll start late or early, doesn't matter. If the baby's around I start. I can't decide if my body is like "yay, here, be ready" or "boo, no babies for you" but it's saying something for sure. I get all baby fevery around them and their baby now though. I think FI does too actually.

C: I've been planning a good luck party for my FI on Sunday and he still has no idea it's not an engagement party. V: Ugghh I feel like I had so much to vent about this week now I'm so exhausted I can't even remember. Work has just been so stressful this week. FI decided to try and flip our king size mattress by himself the other day. He ended up not doing it, hurting his back, breaking an hourglass we had on the nightstand and to top it all off he left the bed undone and then yelled at me when I wanted to go to bed at 1130 and got mad that the bed wasn't made! You took it apart, you put it back together! We NEVER fight so my anxiety kicked in and I had to dbl my meds to relax after an hour of my head spinning. (I have anxiety and panic attacks just an FYI so everyone thinks I'm crazy and on drugs) (well technically I am crazy but it under control lol) hopefully no ones wearing judgy pants today thank god tomorrow's Friday!

[QUOTE]confession:  if i drink anymore, my liver might implode.  yesterday was FI's grandpa's funeral (which is why I'm writing on thursdays post on friday lol) and since the past two weeks have been filled with funerals, everyone just turns to booze.  i have cheerleading tryouts tonight and i can barely see straight, I have no idea how I'm going to judge a bunch of screaming teenagers. oh lawd. vent:  if i have to go to another funeral in the next year i will probably punch someone.  i am so tired of dealing with it. it's exhausting. and FI is not taking the deaths well.  I'm trying to be strong for him<strong> but i cry at dog commercials</strong>, so you know I'm going to cry if he does.

<div>There's nothing funny about death and funerals, but the thought of dog commercials making you cry made me giggle. </div>
