Monday Confessions...

Alright Ladies lets hear the confessions...I confess...-On my hunt for a florist I've discovered that flowers are so expensive, and I hope to find that florist that can give me everything I want for the right price. (im going this wk erikaparr) I may be asking for the impossible.-I've slacked a bit on my diet since my b-day which I enjoyed very much :)-I missed the gym today.-The air quality is driving me crazy....my eyes are burning and it smells like wood all the time. I hope these fires get under controlled.

    I confess:- that I haven't sent out all the thank you cards for my shower that was on the 16th.- that I slept until 2 pm yesterday and spent the entire rest of the day vegging.Jeanni, your mom asked your FI's mom to fork up $ for the wedding?  What did your FI's mom say?  I would have KILLED my mom.

    I confess: that my mom was doing me a favor putting me in modeling/acting. I thought it was too much of a time-suck only to be judged. Now I have a degree but no job and I'm too old to get back to modeling. Woe is me.

    I dislike my job and most of my co-workers, but I don't want to leave because I feel like I have real stability.

    I confess that now that I have no gallbladder, all I want is pizza and a side of Alfredo sauce from Olive Garden. I confess I really want to buy the $200 cake topper I've been drooling over, but I won't. But I REALLY want to.

    Kati0105_  THE only reason my mom had to ask was because my parents cant pay for the entire wedding them selves my mom asked me before she asked FI parents and i said it was fine, she said yes and so they are paying for the florist, but we had to.

    I confess that with just over 30 days to go I'm starting to freak out. I thought I was all calm and cool but I found a small break out of hives on my right arm to show me that I'm feeling the stress.I confess that I broke my meal plan and had a ball at my bachelorette party on Saturday and was in recovery yesterday. Back on the plan today, but it was totally worth it!

    I confess that I have almost quit my job three times today. Most recently, I considered walking out after my office "roommate" came back from lunch and shut off the lights. She says she gets a migraine with light. I say she's a vampire, and my eyesight is going bad. It's dreary enough outside with the smoke and ash all over the sky. We need it to be dreary inside too? She even closes the blinds! I confess that I was kind of hoping the fire would actually cause me to not be able to come to work this week, like last year when it blocked off the 118 freeway for a few days. I confess also that I made it sound like there was no reason for my one ounce weight loss this week. I DID work out three times, but I also had pasta Friday night and pizza Saturday night, not to mention a bunch of those sugar coated dried mango strips from costco. I failed to mention that to my Jenny Craig consultant, and only talked about the three workouts. OK.

    I confess that I am back teaching now and I love my job, but sooooooo much rather be home havin' drinks and wedding planning! I confess that I am OVER bridesmaid dresses!!!  My gals decided that the ones they agreed upon initially were too tight in chest and revealing and they are getting new ones.  I told them to just do it on their own, but I'm still getting dragged into it!  Arggh!I confess that people need to send back their (bleepin') RSVPs!!!!!Ok, feel better now!  thanks!

    I confess that it was really hard to leave the house and go back to work this morning. I would be so embarassed if my parents had asked DH's family to foot some of the bill for the wedding. And I'm a little shocked that you gave your mother the ok to ask... DH's family didn't give us a dime, but I didn't think it was polite to ask. In this society things are quite different. There were things that I wanted special for my wedding, so I paid for them myself. There are many couples who foot the bill for their entire weddings now.

    I confess . . .I am secretly thinking of reactivating my warcraft account.  I should have practiced while I was visiting the FI, but I didn't.  I am kind of blowing off working on my Save the Dates.  They should have been sent already, but I really don't feel like finding out how many printer cartridges I have to buy.One thing about flowers, when in doubt and on a strict budget--go with colors rather than specific blossoms.  That gives you more wiggle room with your budget. For example: let's say you want a purple filler in your flowers; you had your heart set on lilac which can wholesale for anywhere between $12(Trader Joes) to $22(Typical Wholesale supplier) for a bunch of 10 stems; but you find that money is tight--well you go by colors you can go for statice instead(which yeah isn't as pretty, but can be found in purple and will give you the color you wanted) which wholesales for $3.75 to $4.50 per bunch of 10.

    dlx81: I moved in with FI four years ago, and his mother was living with him. RUN! But seriously, one of the first things I had to do was stop saying "I live with my mother in law," and say "my mother in law lives with me." It was around that time this distinction was made that her furniture and accessories all ended up in her room and out of my living room :)
