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

Re: Happy Monday!!!
WR- Just getting in touch with some of our vendors we met with over the weekend.
NWR I have work and work-related issues every day this week. I'm working from home today and I can't focus at all. I have a job that many people would strangle unicorns with their bare hands for, but I can't seem to make it work. I just started this summer, and I would piss off a lot of people if I left now. But I saw this great PhD job offer on the website from my old university, and I'm seriously considering applying. I emailed them for more info today. I just hope it's not an offer that they already promised to some insider.
NWR: I have my midterm for A&P tomorrow..so I'll be studying all day today...I'm meeting with two girls from class this afternoon for a little study session...I have had a hard time focusing all weekend. I"ve only done 4/8 chapters...but I've been doing okay with reviewing things as we go along...ugh, I am so nervous about tomorrow!! I cannot afford to bomb this exam...I'm not a good test taker at all...KNOTTIE VIBES PLEASE!! hahaha
NWR: i have been SO SWAMPED at work it hasn't even been funny! i have had to travel 3 days out of the last 7 and i am just exhausted. lucky for me i can use my time on theknot as my work breaks throughout the day
NWR: Patriots are playing this weekend so i iwll be watching that since it is a pretty important game!!! GO PATS!
I also have a baby shower too.
NWR: It's going to be a busy week! I'm leaving on Sunday to go to Chicago for work until Wednesday. My birthday is on Sunday so I'm having dinner with my dad on Friday and my mom on Saturday. And work will be busy getting ready for Chicago!
WR: Picking up my bridal shoes this week! Also, I should have a free night this week, so I'm thinking I'll sit down and put the ribbons on my bubbles or wrap the flip-flops and put them in their basket (I bought a bunch of flip-flops from Michaels for $1 ea to give out at the reception). Also, I have some more brooches to wire for my bouquet. FI likes helping me with that for some reason hahaha.
NWR: gym, gym, gym! A girl I went to high school with just met her 50 lb goal and posted some before & after pics on Fbook. So thanks to her, I'm really motivated this week.
This week I don't have a lot planned. WR probably get in touch again with the florist/event planner I met at the expo that I emailed last week and let them know my budget because they had some amazing flowers and they said that they would work with me. My sister said something about possibly giving my fiance and I a little more money for our flowers too so that we can really do what we want and if so I'm super happy and excited and I'm going to owe my sister like a million times over. I also want to get in touch with the limo people I met and maybe a few others as well.
NWR: Work, and possibly a girls night out on Thursday with my sister(s). Still haven't really made any plans. Also need to light a fire under FI's butt about work and money. He's been getting a little lenient about them again and that tends to stress me out, which leads to headaches
NWR-going to kickboxing 4 days this week then I have a baby shower on saturday.
NWR: My bestie has her first magazine cover signing in the city!!! She will be on the first cover of a new magazine called Ink & Hip Hop and Ive never been more excited after we will be partying all nite a a club not to far from her signing.
WR - I still haven't been able to find a caterer so I really need to focus on that. Tonight my FI and I went and bought vases and flowers for the start of our centerpiece. Its a long way from done though!
