C & V Thursday (again...)

Okay, so, since it looks like The Knot got off to a rough start this morning and ate some posts, including the original C & V post, let's give this another go...

...let 'em out, ladies!! Let's hear your confessions and vents!!

Re: C & V Thursday (again...)

  • I did this once already, but since it's gone, I'll re-post:

    Confession: Mother's Day is around the corner and I have a big, fat, pile of nothing for my mom and grandmother. I haven't seen anything that I think either of them would like, and even the cards I looked at yesterday were bad. I really need to get moving on this.

    Vent: (a condensed version, since I typed this once already) My fiance and I got into a huge fight last night at like 11 p.m. over money. We make decent money, but we just bought a house in the fall and we're trying to pay for our portion of wedding stuff without dipping into our savings. We also have two out of town weddings this summer, the upstairs of the house needs repainted, and I just got a bunch of bills for what my insurance didn't cover for the stuff I've had done to my bum knee. So, Justin was invited to a bachelor party weekend next month in Atlantic City for two of his friends (hence the two weddings we have). He's not in either wedding, but he has made no effort to find out how much this three day weekend trip is going to cost. When I tried to talk to him about it last night, and lay out the fact that we have a decent amount of cash committed to other stuff right now, it devolved into a huge argument. I honestly have no problem with the whole trip, but as I tried to explain to him, it doesn't seem like a three day bachelor party is the best use of our resources right now. I ended up in tears, and now I'm exhausted and I have puffy eyes, and nothing got resolved, so I'm sure we'll end up having the same argument again this weekend.

    Confession: FI and I are on the 17 day diet (if you aren't familiar it's actually longer than 17 days but it changes every 17 days). All I want today is a big chocolate candy bar and a cheeseburger with mashed potatoes haha. I'm really trying to be strong since I've only been doing it for 3 days and already lost 5lbs!

    Vent: I don't know if it is the rain or what but everyone at work was in a bad mood. During staff meeting everyone was sitting with their arms crossed sighing (and I wasn't presenting anything terrible). After the meeting everyone was sitting around complaining about EVERYTHING.. I have been the program director for 3½ months and the previous director did nothing. I have been left to pick up the pieces and the staff are used to having their hands held and not actually having to do their job. I (nicely) stormed out of my office where I could hear everything being said and had to lay down the law. It was terrible and afterwards I ended up with hives! Now I feel like an A-hole... I am the type of supervisor that is pretty calm and laid back - I call people in when I have to but generally I am always smiling and happy. I don't usually get mad but today I was furious and my blood was boiling! I felt like the staff were trying to walk all over me. I work in Human Services so these types of things I can't ignore! I just can't wait until my program is out of the transition phase!

  • Confession:
    I know its against the rules so I won't but I so badly want to do a "vote for me" post.  I won't because I know people usually vote for the OTHER people but still.  It's for my girl friend anyway (I already have a photog) but I so bad want to help her out.  The good news is I have all my guys at work and a bunch of computers in the library I can use to vote hehe.

  • Confession I wanted to be pregnant. But not Vent wanted this weekend off!

     
  • C- I am really excited to go bridal dress shopping. I made some really cute YES/NO signs for the girls to use and vote on the dresses.  But I am really nervous about how my mom is going to act. No lie, she is turning into a momzilla and because she is paying for the dress I think she thinks she gets to make the final decision. 

    V- I really don't want to work tomorrow. I started working fridays because I need to make more money for this wedding but I REALLY DONT WANT TO! I have so much to do (not all WR) I really need those fridays
