Confessions/irritations (rational or otherwise) or whatever...

in Wedding Etiquette Forum
The chit chat thread is too far down.

I confess that after 5 days with the in-laws, I'm (secretly) glad MIL will not be able to afford to come out here very often to visit.  OMG.  At one point after hearing me talk about cloth diapering and breastfeeding and hearing H tease me about being a hippie cause I'm seeing a midwife, she spent 20 minutes telling me I should replace my paper towels with reusable/washable cloth rags and napkins if I REALLY want to be eco-friendly.

Irritation - I know it's account security and all, but I do ALL our banking and I'm irritated that I had to call our HSA bank cause I show a deduction to pay a medical bill from January, but I just got a call from a collections agency because the clinic says they never got it, and they won't talk to ME cause my name is not on the account.  So now I have to have H call the HSA bank and add me as a secondary on the account before I can call them and find out WTF my clinic didn't get paid and I have an account in collections that I thought I paid.

I dropped a bottle of Dove bodywash on my foot in the shower last night, and my foot hurts today.

    Confession-I think i'm turning into a crazy wife, last night I got upset with H because he was putting a desk together and had cooked dinner instead of making the bed. I look back on it and wonder "WTF?" I texted him this morning and apologized yet again.

    Irritation-We got our gas bill, they say we didn't pay last month yet I show we did. When I called they said they never received any payment and we must pay in full or it will be cut off immediately.

    Did you pay by check - or get a confirmation number for an online transaction?

    I confess that I'm totally over today. I'm ready to get shitfaced and pass out because thats how bad it was. I'm tired of trying to please everyone, it's obviously impossible.

    Irritation- I'm totally irritated that I have to go to work tomorrow. I just want to sleep.I can't seem catch up on that, even on the weekend.

    Loopy- ouch! Hope your foots ok.

    I have the opposite issue; we got our gas bill last night and it is showing a credit of "cancelled charges" worth 100% of our last two bills.  So now I'm freaking out thinking they accidentally cancelled our account or something and our gas is going to be cut off any moment.  I realize worrying over them NOT charging us money is pretty silly, but it's how my brain works.

    Oh and Loopy if my IL's stayed for 5 days I would be over the moon they were gone and not able to afford to come back for a while!

    Hope your foot isn't hurt! My aunt did that and she really messed her foot up.

    Call your bank to see if the check was cashed. If so asked who cashed it. That's BS!

    Confession: I really want to call out of work tomorrow.  But my boss is gone for the weekend and my other coworker is out sick.  So yeah.

    I don't really have any good confessions.

    I'm irritated that I have to get up at 5:15 tomorrow, on my day off, because the girl I am riding with up to Ocean City, MD with wants to leave by 7:00.  She lives 40 minutes away from me...ugh.  Not one other girl from the bachelorette party will be there until 10:30 pm.  We'll be there at 3:00

    My bank links a picture of the check to the transaction in the online register so I can see it online.

    My foot is fine, just a little tender where the bottle hit.  Thanks :).

    Stage - totally worth it.  My boss was out today too.  I think I spent about 2 1/2 of my 5 hours playing on my phone.  I hate when people get curious about my computer.  I am pretty quick at hiding TK page though.

    Yep, at least that's one thing i've not been called out on. Of course it's hard to do when the others on the FB and stuff so I can easily tattle on them too if that's the game we start playing.
