@beethery....I like folding laundry (I find it soothing, I'm aware I'm weird), would you like me to come over?

In exchange, I really need someone to mop my kitchen. I fucking hate mopping.

[Deleted User] · January 2015

I will work with my fiance to set our budget for the year; schedule a meeting with a financial planner, get us signed up for a gift registry appointment, and get my Christmas gift thank you cards done.

I WILL, I WILL, I WILL!

PLEASE COME OVER @princessofgenovia ! I have 4 baskets waiting in the basement and a bed full in the spare room. I will mop all the things!

princessofgenovia · January 2015

@lolo883, I'm on my way!

Is there snow there right now? Cause if so I'm gonna need to stop and pick up some snow...things. I wore a hoodie today, it was that cold, so clearly I'm snow unprepared.

I made calzones last night. Filling layers, in order from bottom to top: Red sauce, ricotta, fresh mozzarella, genoa salami, fontina.

If you come fold all my shit, you may have a huge one. I will mop your floors as well.

holyguacamole79 · January 2015

I need to iron some shirts before my business trip next week. Then put them in my suitcase and wrinkle them again. Yeah, screw that.

emmaaa · January 2015

I will get my house clean and in order. Mine and H's moms cleaned up for us while we were gone but it is cluttered and we have to unpack. I couldn't believe they actually cleaned for us, it was so sweet! BUTTT, I have more to do.

amelisha · January 2015

I love folding laundry too, especially when it's all warm from the dryer. Rolling socks and folding underwear is oddly soothing.

As for the rest of it, it's -40 out and I am not doing anything on my to-do list until I can go outside without my face freezing off. And I plan to ignore all wedding-related list items until the absolute last second so I can continue to pretend it's not actually happening. Maybe I need to start looking for, like, a magic spell or something that will just transport me to the "married" part so I don't have to have the wedding...lol.

No snow! Just ice, and 13° temps.

What is this gibberish you speak of? Underwear gets wadded up and shoved into the drawer.

So I really think I have a plan for my invites, and I bought some supplies and will begin writing them out as soon as I finish my corndogs.

I also got 2 new bras at Victoria's secret and I went grocery shopping.

Why do people bring their boyfriends into Victoria's secret? Nobody wants them there, they don't want to be there and I hate being packed in looking at thongs with someone's dirty boyfriend breathing down my neck. What, he can't walk around the mall for 20 minutes by himself?

Also, the last thing I need while trying on swimsuits and bras and other underthings is a giant flatscreen of the fashion show running by the cash register.

I'm pretty sure that if we team up, we can build a Thing for this.

I will get on the wedding shit. I gotta.

Hey, I stop short of ironing it at least. When I nannied in Spain, though, our housekeeper used to iron EVERYTHING, g-strings included. It was hilarious to watch.

maeday2 · January 2015

I have failed miserably today at doing wedding stuff. Easing back into this work thing is necessary. Vacation schedule is too easy to get used to.

I emailed my photographer. Does that count as progress? I really think I've hit the "don't care anymore" stage. I need a support group for this. One with wine.

chibiyui · January 2015

I went to lunch with a friend, and then I managed to get my aprons out of the dryer, move the pants and underwear in the washer to the dryer, and put H's new robe in the washer.

That might be all I actually accomplish today. I think it's nap time.

Oh fuck me too. Our clean laundry has been in a pile on the floor for three days. Time to get my life together.

Inkdancer · January 2015

I finally finished painting the trim in the kitchen and got all my decorative glass pieces back on top the cabinets, so they aren't obstructing the dining room table anymore! Yay me!

jenna8984 · January 2015

@larrygaga Totally agree! Men go walk around the electronics store or something, no need to be in Victoria's all awkward. Yay for starting invites!!

@lolo883 Hell yes to the undie wadding. Do you bundle your socks? I do with mine but DH hates that and leaves them all separate in his drawer.

Yeah I have to bundle the socks. If I ever get around to it, anyway. I do most of my dressing straight from the laundry basket.

levioosa · January 2015

My goal for this week is to make a pantry inventory so we stop eating out so much. Time to buckle down and get healthy!

lovemyrunner · January 2015

I will get my butt back on the treadmill. I will also make the damn centerpieces. Only one week of break before school starts back up and then I won't have time for wedding projects til May!

DH comes into Victoria's Secret with me all the time.. But it's because he has great taste and likes to pick things out for me. It might also be that I worked there for several years and he just got used to it.

That being said, during the semiannual sale it's a different story. What man wants to be crowded in between 1000 ladies picking over underwear and a pile of bras? Oh wait that sounds better than it really is. I believe when I went to the semi annual sale and it was crowded, DH stood off in the corner to allow the crazy ladies to zoom through racing for the good bras still left.

larrygaga · January 2015

I can only imagine what FI would pick out. Something pretty with no underwire and 2 hooks that would snap at the mere sight of my chest, or one that gives you a quad boob because it wants to push you up. He would pick ones with little rhinestones that you can see through your shirt (why do they make those?) or straps made entirely of frail lace that will dissolve in the wash or when I put my fingers directly through them.

He would choose panties that cut me right off at the muffin top or those stupid ones that show off your buttcrack. I have never seen a buttcrack pull these off. THESE DO NOT WORK. FOR ANYONE. ANYWHERE. OF ANY SIZE. OF ANY BUTTCRACK.

I don't know how you can let your husband pick for you. You must be good with any kind of underwear. You should just let him show you what he likes online and then you can go and get it and not have any of this creepy man watching you in the corner nonsense.

I don't get the strong feeling on this one. I couldn't care less if there are dudes in there while I'm picking out underwear as long as they're not in the dressing room while I have the door open. I also worked in a lingerie store but yeah, that doesn't even register to me.

FI can't pick out my bras because I'm a freak 28FF and I buy the same brand and style online all the time (it's taken me ten years to find it and now I'm never wearing anything else), but he is fully capable of picking out cute underwear. I don't have much in the way of junk in the trunk though, and the one benefit to a sad little flat butt is that most clothes fit on it fairly well (unlike on my top half, clearly.)

velvethelicopters · January 2015

Hey, I like those panties. But I got no butt really, so fit isn't a problem. VS bras however, no. They're crazy loose in the band for me. I wear a 34DD but need a 32DDD in VS. Which I've never seen. Sigh.

And I iron my panties also. I like ironing and laundry in general. I have a clear finish, and it can't be destroyed as fast as three dogs and two kids can manage. I only mop when I can't see the original floor color.

I know!!!! And there's a little hoodie pocket on her bum! I just can't!

velvethelicopters · January 2015

I have given up cookie dough. Yay!

I may have replaced it with praline frosted triple chocolate brownies.

I am going to do it. I am finally going to do it.
