1. Remember how my jeweler was going to custom design some wedding day earrings for me from my family diamonds? They just called to tell me that the blue diamonds that have been in my family for about a hundred years - that I had previously had appraised and basically been cherishing/worshipping my whole life - are not, in fact, diamonds, and are merely simulated stones. I am devastated.
2. Looks like our house deal is going to fall through. Our realtor was worried that if we purchased the home for anywhere near the list price, that the home would not appraise properly because it's so much more expensive than the "comps" in the area. He had this conversation with the seller and explained that was the main reason why we offered such a lower amount. The seller is basically saying "I own the house with cash, I don't even need to sell, I can do what I want", and not budging on his list price at all. I am pretty devastated. It's not that we can't afford the list price, it's that there would seriously be issues with getting financed properly because, compared to other recent sales, the home is significantly overpriced and would not appraise properly.
3. Turns out most of my friends are not able to come to either my shower or my bachelorette party. I keep getting more and more emails with excuses, other plans, etc. and it is starting to break my heart. I have been going to showers and bachelorette parties all across the midwest practically every month for my friends since I was in college, and none of them seem to be returning the favor for me, and it makes me really sad. I am supposed to head to Chicago this weekend for YET ANOTHER bachelorette party and I really want to cancel due to my current mental health state. I only know of three girls out of about 15 who are actually coming to my shower.
4. all of the above-referenced vents just caused me to have a mini-meltdown at work and I am feeling really miserable now!!!
thank you for letting me vent. I normally try not to be a whiny brat, but I am falling apart today, and venting makes me feel better.
