    • I hate the weather, it sucks

      Austin is home again invading my alone time and I hate it


      Eventhough the knot has gotten messy I like some of the new features

    I overdid it at the gym on Tuesday, so I'm using my soreness from that as an excuse to not go to the gym today (shame!).

    I am liking the new boards (except all the nutty ads and the slowness).

    After Stebbe posted about Target having good things and prices, I went yesterday and spent over a hundred bucks on myself!!!! I feel guilty...... but oh so good!!

    I confess that I love Liz from The Parsonage (I spent 3 hours there last night lol)


    I confess that I've actually enjoyed the alone time I've gotten with FI on business travel this week. Although, after 3 days I'm starting to get lonely :(

    I confess that I started a blog this week that no one knows about

    I confess that I really don't want an odd # of people standing up in the wedding so I am thinking of making my brother an usher instead of a groomsman since my SIL declined when I asked her to be a BM.

    I am not looking forward to FI's mom coming to our house on Wednesday MORNING..no one will even be home so we have to leave a key for her. It's not like I get home late, I'm home by 3pm every day, can't you come at like 5pm? Let me breathe a little after I get off work and not entertain you until FI get's home.

    I'm gonna have to do some serious drinking that night.

    I'm also not looking forward to his family coming over for Thanksgiving and I confess I'm only going to be there to monitor the situation and make sure my house isn't a disaster.

    • I ate half a bag of trail mix yesterday and didn't realize it till later on..You know, the big bags from Target?
    • I haven't been to the gym in over four months and I really need to get back in there.
    • I turned on the sterio this morning with the intent on waking up my neighbor. I hate her.

    • I confess that the new knot gives me a headache 

    • I had to send my ring in to ritani to get re-sized so I went and bought a $10 fake from Target... I've had strangers comment on how gorgeous it is & I think it's really funny

    • I am actually really excited to come back to MI for Thanksgiving & experience the cold weather... I just want to wear boots & tights and all the fun winter/fall things for once!!

    I confess...

    I want to know about Kim's secret blog!

    I am *slowly* getting used to the new board...the "Mark as Read" doesn't work properly for me though and it's really bugging me.

     My tummy is starting to get nervous....eeek!

    I am starting to second guess my timeline for Saturday.  Might need to make a small change.

    I confess that I am not digging this new board format at all - it takes 50 years to load and also took me forever to figure it out yesterday.

    I confess that FI is driving me nuts over not having internet at home.  Cable went out in one room only - the spare room, where we have Amanda's TV and the computer - and Comcast can't get out until tomorrow to fix it.  I told him it's all in his head that he can't fall asleep without the computer in front of him; thus proven right since we both fell asleep watching TV at 9:30 last night...

     - I'm constantly second guessing our wedding plans and its making me insane.
     - Every day I wish we had a shorter engagement, like only 6 months instead of 16
     - I secretly think its kinda cool that we may have a ghost in our apartment
     - The short work week and no classes next week makes me ridiculously happy
     - I haven't started Christmas shopping and have absolutely no desire to, and really don't care.
     - I'm spending more on the wedding than FI thinks and he started to realize it last night.

    I was going to ask you about your Ghost, Erin. Do you have unusual things going on? We once had our TV turn on by itself and after leaving for the weekend all of our Kitchen appliances were plugged back in; even though I unplugged them before we left.

    • I confess that I while I was happy to get FI out of the house last week, I'm glad he's back home with me
    • I confess I really like that The Knot has this bullet point option!
    • I confess that while FI was gone, I ate horribly. And I need to get my a$$ to the gym, bad!
    • I confess that I am a little scared for my mom...she's going through chemo right now and I hope she pulls through. But I try to be strong so people don't see me breaking down.
    • I confess I still have been stalking my e-mail up to 10 times a day waiting for e-pics...new date is by tomorrow.

    We have had a few weird things happen, tv turning off/on by themselves etc. Then FI woke up and saw someone siitting on the bed next to me and we got really freaked when our stove top turned on. His mom had a psychic lady come who told us we have a ghost. But she's not a mean ghost, so its ok I guess.

    Its been a weird week at my house.

    Wow! My Brother thinks he saw someone standing over him the first night we moved into our apartment. I haven't seen anyone but things turned on and off by themselves frequently when we first moved in. Things are much quieter now though.

    • I honestly thought about quitting my job today
    • I have 1.5 personal days left, I have used 31.5 personal days this year (sick and vacation) which is INSANE, but I found it really hard to come to work because my job makes me miserable
    • I feel really guilty complaining about my job because I am lucky to have one, but I can't help it.
    • I completely ignored my WW online point tracker this week. I have been eating horribly and need to stop!
    • I don't want to live in Canton (even though the best condos we've found are in Canton) because it's too close to FI family and they have been driving me crazy lately.
    • I am in "make busy" mode on my phone pretending to finish up on my last call....
    • I am so incredibly stressed thinking about finding a house, getting wedding stuff done, christmas, moving, cleaning/packing, my job and money that I have not stopped breaking out for three weeks.
    • I really want to go check out Target's plus size department because I am shocked that they have cute stuff now!
    • Like Corrine, I am loving this bullet point option.
    • I want a vacation, and was presented an option to go to Florida FREE for 4 days, but I have no personal days left to go. SUCK!

    * I am way too overwhelmed, but I refuse to change it. I took on too much and now I have to pay. (FT, PT work + physical therapy 3x a week + house hunting + wedding planning = tears, tears, and lack of sleep)

    * I  was really mean to Fi yesterday.

    * Every time I am with my in-laws, it scares me that I will deal with them for the rest of my life. (Remote island FTW?)

    * I can't stick to a diet plan. I hate it. 9 months out and I haven't lost a pound.

    I confess that after FI leaves for work in the morning, I let the dog up in the bed to cuddle with me while I sleep for another half hour.  Dog on bed = no no in our house.

    I agree. I love the paranormal and watching things about it but I doubt I could handle it up close and personal.

    Erin, your story is making my arm hair stand up!  FI woke me up last weekend around 11:30pm asking me if I saw him/ghost.  When I asked what he was talking about, he said the man in the hallway.  Since then I haven't slept a whole night without waking up a couple times and looking around the bedroom.  I never want to see a ghost.  I swear I would pee my pants!!
    My confession- I'm dreading having my BIL, SIL and 3 kids come down for Thanksgiving.  I love kids, but these kids are terrors!  Also, my SIL gave me their grocery list and it had close to 50 things on it.  She's crazy!

    • I knew when my FI was going to propose because he is horrible at keeping secrets.  To  this day no one knows I knew he was doing it the day he did.  Well except for the ladies at the knot.
    • I couldn't PIP before and I am really excited the new board makes it way more simple. 
    • Today is supposed to be the day I start eating better again and all I want to do is go get doughnuts for breakfast.  
    • I could rather be alone on Thanksgiving than spend it with my FILs.

    Julie - Sorry to creep you out, I always thought I'd be more afraid but its actually not that scary.

    Katie - That's crazy - has FI ever seen ghosts before? According to the psychic lady, there are ghosts almost everywhere. I was thinking, oh fabulous!

    ^ Shannon, I'd rather be alone on Thanksgiving too.  I think I've convinced Brian that this year is my parent's year...even though they aren't having a Thanksgiving dinner.  Maybe we'll have pizza.  LOL!

    Taryn:  I am completely jealous.  My FI keeps telling me he doesn't know what we are doing yet.  I keep telling him if we haven't heard anything yet that probably means no one is doing anything lol.  It hasn't worked yet....   I have even tried telling him I would love to start a Thanksgiving tradition with just the two of us.  He isn't taking the bate yet lol.

    I am sort of jealous of all of you who have no plans for Thanksgiving.  FILs have been married for 32 years and they STILLgo to both sides of the family for Christmas and Thanksgiving.  So if we want to see my family, too, thats THREE houses to go to.  Its gotten better than when we first started  because we only go to one of his sides and mine...but I've made it clear that we will get a better schedule once we are married.  i.e. my fam for Christmas Eve, his fam for Christmas day.  I would be perfectly content relaxing just the two of us versus driving all around town.

    And no worries about creeping me out about the ghosts.  They are interesting stories, I am just glad they are happening to you and not me!

    I confess that I have been really depressed for a long time (work, place we live ect.). I feel like i'm living for the future (future job, future home) and it's got to stop, and I need to enjoy today.

    I confess that i'm scared to get married and it finally hit me. I know I love FI and I want to be with him and only him, but I think my parents divorce and my dad's 2 divorces after that have really affected me and I didn't realize it until now.

    wow.....sorry for the downer post.

    P.S. the ghost stories creep me out, but at the same time are kinda cool, as long as they are friendly of course. :)

    Erin, yes my FI has told me he's seen ghosts before.  Of course it always happened when he had too many Jack & Cokes and so naturally I didn't believe him.  My FI also loves watching Paranormal State and other ghost shows like that.  He's very interested in them and likes seeing what they do to people.  My FI is a little strange!!!

    I love hearing about the ghost stories! I'm actually reading a romance/suspense book about it right now.

    • I have no motivation to do anythiing right now. I have a list of stuff that I need to do and I don't feel like it.
    • I don't want to start writing my final paper for my Pysch class. I hate writing papers.
    • Dogs are driving me nuts. They can't sit still and are whining like I should know what they want
    • I hate grocery shopping but I knd of need to since we have nothing in our fridge
    • I need to really get my business up and running
