Hey , I'm so sorry you r going thru this. Not seeing you on mother's day bc mother in law more important. Nonsense . Sounds like the gf is a chip off old block of mom. Sounds like sons gf is a well....brat. idk best advice other than talk to your soon about how you'd like to be with him more , or make plans to take walks, lunches , etc things that don't break the bank. Invite son and gf or if gf doesn't come just son. Start to do all you can to make effort to be with son away from this so he can make sure it's what he wants . You are his mother , you deserve to be held high

I'm so lost.

FI= Fiance
Ah, Thanks!
Please just do yourself, so that I have more time to do things I want to do, like plan my wedding, and my best friend's bachelorette party. I do not like working 12+ hours a day until I'm exhausted and having no time for anyone/anything besides you.

Dear hubby-to-be,
You are so wonderful. Thank you for completely taking apart the box fan last night, after you were already in bed, to fix the little rattle that would have annoyed me all night long. I know I'm a spazz, but thank you for putting up with me and fixing the things that drive me bonkers. I hope you never get tired of putting up with me
Love,
Wifey-to-be
Dear friend:
Maybe this might not be a big deal or maybe I'm just being over sensitive... but to post about your "baby" news as a FB status update without telling any of your friends and even some of your family is tacky. Some of us didn't even see your update and received text from other friends asking if we knew about the happy news.
We were all a little miffed about how we found out.... couldn't you even send a mass text to us all so we personally heard?? Especially when I was just on the phone with you and emailing you prior to your FB update.
I'll remember this when it comes time for that baby shower.
Love,
Your probably over sensitive friend who will end up sending you a gift even though you technically still haven't told me the news.

You are a grown a** adult with 2 kids and a wife, stop acting like you're a teenager and doing stupid stuff. Your younger brother has bailed you out of trouble too many times and you now owe us $850 of our wedding money that we saved. Just because you and your wife are irresponsible with your money doesn't mean you can always come to us.

Dear FI,
I love you and I love that you want to take care of your family. At some point you've got to put our needs before theirs. They will always come to you for help (money) as long as you are willing to give it. Please start putting us before them.
Your soon to be wife
I understand the weather is jacking up your business, but that doesn't mean you need to take it out on me. I've had enough of you the last couple days and I'm really needing a break. Please, please, please give me a break.

Dear ND,
Please provide a job for FI and I. we would reallly like to make our trip back for the wedding a permanent one. With only 39 days to go, it's a lot to ask, but do-able. Oh...and while you're at it, would you please sen a chunk of your multi-million dollar budget surplus our way?
FI and I
You are really getting in the way of my wedding planning! Please stop giving me things to do...I'm already stacked to the ceiling with stuff that has to get done before Sept. 1st.
Love (not really),
Too busy to work bride to be
You're a worthless piece of crap. Get a job, get a life, stop stealing from other people.

Why can't you be Wednesday?
Dear person who controls time-
Please do me a favor and stop the clock for a few hours tonight so we can catch up on sleep.
Dear sellers-
Come on now...we are so okay with walking.
Thanks for making Tuesday bad! If you are going to layoff half the dept do it on a Friday!! (BTW I was not laid off but still makes it a rough day!!!)
-Shocked-
That will always remind me of Office Space.
Dear FI,
I hate that your leaving to go back to ND and I wont see you until you come back for our wedding. I feel like we had to pack so much stuff into this week that we didn't get any time to just hang out.
Love,
Your FI that will miss you so much
Why do you have to be so unwilling to work out a payment plan with me for my student loans? Don't you know I don't make enough to pay a huge payment to you? You're not the only debt I have. I really hate you right now...
Dear Wedding, please pay for yourself.
Dear FI, please be understanding about the cost of the wedding. In the end, it will be worth every penny spent! I love you!
Dear time, please let April 2nd be here sooner so we can get married already! :~)
Dear God, please send a great job my FI's way!!!
Love, Me

You really should have had that deal going on all week long, not just one day. I really wanted to have some but I'm not crazy enough to wait 1hr plus. Thanks a lot.

Ditto this! :-p
This week is not your week. I will boot you if you mess with me or anyone else. I don't care if your friends get mad. In fact I hope they leave with you but wouldn't be surprised if they didn't think you were worth it either. The leader is gonna be out a while and I am not as willing to put up with your crap.
Unsincerely,
Me
Dear wedding guests,
Could more of the people I like accept? I was really disappointed my favorite relative from FI's family declined. Figured it was a long shot for them coming though because of distance. Help me out so I don't think that the wedding is gonna be disappointing.

Dear Alannah kitty,
Getting spayed did adjust your attitude. You are acting like when we first got you. Stay sweet.

LOL. A lot of those girls make me wonder.
We weren't really friends in college and have not talked to each other since New Year's Eve 2008. Randomly asking "when the big day is" because you're "so excited" for me, won't get you an invite. PS if you were really interested, you would have seen the date in our engagement pictures.

I'm not really sad that I skipped you on Saturday. $60 per person for appetizers and you're not even offering an open bar? You can keep your regression therapy.
Dear Semi Precious Weapons,
You are my new favorite band. I am so glad you were Lady Gaga's opening act! Dirty glam rock FTW!

I know you like to schedule lots of meetings, but if you schedule me for back to back meetings all day, I can't complete any of the action items you send out. Please understand.

Why on earth are you freaking out over the fact that you haven't ordered STDs yet? You are way too late for that. You haven't just missed the train, it's already arrived at it's destination. Move on from the STDs and focus on your invites because those are SO much more important. I doubt you have even thought of those.
Also, you might want to book a photographer soon. And why on earth are you looking at photographers in Lubbock and Austin? There are a million awesome photographers here in Dallas. You make me so frustrated!
Good luck,

Please hire me!! I am tired of working a High school level job with Two Master's degrees. I understand that my experience doesn't equal my education, but you know what I worked hard to get that education and I want to use it! Just give me a shot!! My current job is annoying me and I want to just walk out!
Sincerely

Sometimes I just want you to go away and leave me alone. I hate talking on the phone.
Dear Bill,
Thank you for finally talking to your parents about how they treated me at Christmas and this past weekend. I know it took a lot for you to do it but I appreciate it and I hope that it doesn't damage your relationship with them.
Dear Shortgirl,
I'm not the most patient person so I would probably be walking at this point. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.
Thanks for the wishes. We have 5 more days in our option period. Either they are considering our offer very seriously because they know we will walk if they don't meet us on 2 things or they are waiting until the last second to respond which wouldn't give us much time to respond. I'm glad Bill talked to his parents. Hopefully that was the kick in their pants they need.
