I'm currently in the middle of a nasty legal stand off with my previous employer, and it's just stressing me out. I just want to tell them to go away, that I deserve to be happy right now and they're going to give me pimples on my wedding day from all this stress, but obviously that wouldn't help anything. I'm almost to the point of giving in, just so I don't have to deal with them anymore, but I know I'm in the right and I know that I can't let them treat me like they have and get away with it (long story, which obviously I can't go into here).
Why won't life stress just stop and let me enjoy the last few weeks before my wedding???! I know that's silly, but it's how I feel right now.
Other than that, things are pretty good. FI is wonderful and amazing, and we're very happy and excited. We're living with my parents, which saves us stress from paying rent while we wait for his military orders to come through, but it also adds stress because they treat us a bit like children who need to be told what to do, and they have random rules they expect us to just guess without being told (they've gotten rather stuck in their own habits since I left for college almost a decade ago). They keep telling us how to take care of our dog, which I swear, I'm going to go off on them one of these days! It does not bode well for how they'll be when we have children.
Some mild family drama still, but who doesn't have that? Most recently, my aunt said that her son doesn't have dress pants, button down shirts, tie, or dress shoes (she's a trust fund kid who spends thousands on clothes for herself each month, so it's not that they lack for money) and asked if he could come in shorts and flip flops. Um, sure? He'll look like a fool, and you'll be judged, and it's kind of disrespectful, but whatever. Oh, and remember when you insisted on every male guest renting a tux since your wedding was "black tie, NOT black tie optional", dear aunt?
What's going on with everyone else? What family drama is making you pull out your hair? What stress in work or life is driving you nuts?
