    AW:  We leave for our honeymoon in 9 days!  I cannot wait to have a little over a week off work.

    Confession:  Tim's friends are getting married this weekend, and I am only giving them as much as they gave us.  We usually give more, but oh well.  Flame away.

    AW: I found a graphic designer on etsy that will create every piece of paper I need for the wedding and give me the files to print on my own. I am super excited! I just hope I like her designs. So far she has been really sweet and very responsive. Oh, and willing to do anything for a great price!

    Amy - that is how I would do it if we weren't almost the last of our friends to get married. I didn't realize that was flame worthy.

    Jely-  I'm not sure if I would get flamed here for it, but I know on some other boards here I would.

    Amy - I'm jealous! I wish I could go on a honeymoon right now.

    AW/Confession: I got a few "no" RSVPs yesterday and the day before and they made me really happy. They came from randoms that my mom added to her list pretty last minute. I wouldn't have minded having them at the wedding, but I'm happier that they won't be there. My wedding is to celebrate with people that FI and I love, not for my mom to show off to her semi-friends.

    Amy - I would do the same thing. At least in the same ballpark price-wise. FI and I are pretty generous gift givers and I know I'll be (irrationally?) pissed if someone we gifted well doesn't return the favor.

    YAY LEMMA!

    Amy - haha I would have done the same thing... or told them don't bother since our weddings are so close together.

    I already AW my house... but I'm still excited. 

    Dear Sister,
    Try to at least be semi happy for me... just try.   Even a smile would be fine.  Mom makes it sound like you're all happy for the house and my wedding, but all I get is a subject change... and all I brought up Sunday is when I'm moving.  Just thought you'd like to know where you're only sister is living.
    Thanks,
    Little sis

    Confession:  I canceled the only meeting I had this afternoon.  I knew it was going to be short and I don't feel like doing anything at work today.

    Lemma-  I was swamped the week of my wedding.  I had to stay late on my last day of work so I could finish some things up.  I wish I was really busy now.  I'm sure I'm going to be busy next week before I leave too. 

    Also yay for only 3 more days!

    Mana-  We are going to Barcelona for a few nights and then a 5 night cruise to Cannes France, the Pisa/Florence port and Rome and then back to Barcelona!  I cannot wait.  My husband (I did type FI and deleted it) has never been out of the country so it will be fun!

    Hello Ladies,

    Happy Hump Day!
    Feels like a good day for a vent: I have only been engaged for a few weeks. Why do people expect that I have already set a date, picked a venue, started my registry and ordered a dress? What happened to taking some time to bask in the fun of my new sparkler?

    Oh and dear friend, yes I love you dearly, but I am not you so it's ok for me to do things according to my own timeline. Ok, vent over. Thanks, I feel better!
