I only worked 3 days and it still feels like the longest week ever. I'm going to go have a very professional CTJ talk with the 2 attorneys who decided to run their mouths while I was gone. I'm still very angry and I'm not going to be able to let it go. I've developed a game plan and I know, even if it doesn't make a…
Rescheduled and Downsized

Discussion by knottie68f5010330b38684 · September 2020 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Invitations & Paper

Hi! Hoping someone can have a good suggestion for me here! My fiancee & I were supposed to get married this past May in Mexico. Not only was that cancelled, but so were our first and second reschedule! We have now moved our wedding to July 2021, locally, not a destination anymore. Our new venue only holds 120 people and we…
Ask her to keep the dog outside during visits

Discussion by short+sassy · July 2020 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Woes

Dear Prudence, The last time I went to my friend’s house, her dog (who has really sharp nails) repeatedly jumped all over me. My friend apologized several times but did nothing to stop it, and the next day I was scratched and bruised all over. My friend has made several comments about how we can safely socialize at her…
Yes, you suck it up and buy things you need. Like an adult.

Dear Prudence, I am an unfortunate member of the class of 2020. COVID-19 has taken over the end of my senior year of college, including graduation. It is also becoming increasingly likely that I will have to postpone my graduation party. I understand why, and I’m OK with that, but my problem is with the gifts that I was…
Re: Anne is kind, your sister is terrible. You know the 'right' thing to do here.

I'm seeing it slightly differently. The LW isn't giving the sister a pass. She's already said that she hates her sister's behavior and distances herself from her but acknowledges that this sister was the caretaker. And while this isn't the same as leaving an abusive household the LW starts off the letter commenting that…
"Oh, I have other plans! I'm sorry I can't make it!'

Dear Prudence, Well, it’s the winter holiday season and I hate it. I am Jewish and really cannot stand the endless barrage of Christmas In America, starting before Halloween. I work at a large organization and am in a leadership role, so I am invited to all of the parties, and that means about 10 parties between now and…
Re: You have more problems than politics.

Update: Secret impasse: This is following up on the question I had about my wife, whom I suspected of having voted for Trump. We did have that talk. She had been out of town for quite some time. Now that she’s back, I asked her. She said in 2016 she had not voted for Trump, but might do so now. She won’t tell me…
Re: (Trying) to Keep Calm

Reply by futuremrs20 · April 2020 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Moms and Maids

Thank you for this. It turned into a bit of a nightmare tonight when my FH called to try to calm things down and it was taken as me trying to start things or "control my wedding." She offered to host the RD so we gave her full reign. We only suggested that we insert a separate RD invite into the wedding invite so people…

Re: Prime Day Tuesday

Reply by missJeanLouise · July 2022 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Woes

@"short+sassy" You and I are opposites. We order delivery multiples times a week between diner and groceries but I have never seen anything worth buying on Prime Day. I do like that other stores seem to be picking it up though. DS is going to his first day at his new school tomorrow and I am so stoked. He has been home…
Re: Intimate Destination Ideas

Reply by arzoolander · February 2021 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Destination Weddings Discussions

I'm planning a destination wedding in Key West in October, so a few suggestions based on my experience: If you are considering somewhere warm (like FL), then why must it be this Summer or next? In Fall/Winter the weather can be perfect (not too hot or humid, not chilly). Given the pandemic, it will also allow more time for…
