  1. Do you know when they will air the one on couples in jamaica?
  2. I have been thinking about how to include everyone also.... I think that we will invite the guests to fill the two jars of sand before they are seated... we will use those jars for our sand ceremony....
  3. Thank you for starting the thread in the first place... I am sure that most of us need very little excuse for a gathering but are always looking for a way to make it unique!

But you are right, I should do something for myself. I need to find a yoga class or something. Tammy - omg how frustrating! You must want to kick your renters out like yesterday. Thanks for making me see I'm not alone. And yes, the serenity prayer is awesome, even if you aren't in AA Catherine - wanna come & clean at our house? Actually, we're pretty clean, just cramped & cluttered. UGH. I love you guys! Christa... I can truely sympathize... I bought my house about an hour away from my family so he could be close to his....we had been "home" for less than a month before his daughter had a "falling out" with her mother and moved in with us.... she also brought with her a boyfriend and son. talk about close quarters. Anyway, all I can say is enjoy your Family, they are meant to be treasured. (that is what I keep telling myself)

I have come to think of it as simple evolution.... the babies that are born to addicted mothers will never have the support they need - and therefore throw everything they have at surviving each day. On the other hand, the babies that are given love and support and every chance to thrive know that they have a lot of love behind them and can take it easy knowing that they have love and prayers to get them through the early times and save their greatness for later in life. Jessica, I have been reading a lot on this forum lately.... I can say that I do not truely know you. As a remote stranger I have felt the IMPACT of you in a truely positive manner. Thank you for reaching out to so many! I can't wait to see pics of your little one!
  6. Why must I suffer this way? As soon as I decide to "cut back" aka diet everything sounds so good I must have it? I will not order pizza....I will not order pizza.... I will not order pizza.... OK- I give- where is the phone book!

I sometimes work with neonatal babies and it seems to me that those babies do better when born early than those whose moms made all the right choices. Maybe those babies are born with more fight in them? It seems unfair to me! ps congrats and good luck with your little bundle! enjoy your sleep now and cherish the sleepless nights to come.
  8. oh god! you poor thing.... you should treat yourself to something nice..... later , after you feel a little better you should repeat to yourself over and over again (like a mantra) "this place sure is COZY." if that doesn't work pour yourself a cocktail and try to remember it is not forever!
  9. I hope everything works out for you! Good Luck!
  10. I picked #1 because it is cute, casual and fun! #2 is cute but seems more formal... #3 is out for me because I am pretty sure I tried it on for a wedding I am in and found it unflattering! Another suggestion is to look at your dress against each of them and see which compliments it most! good luck w/ your decision!
  11. ok, ok, you convinced me to go get my wallet where i keep the recipe.... fill shaker with ice and add 1 1/4 oz Peach Vodka 3/4 oz Triple Sec 1/2 oz Peach Schnapps fill shaker to cover the ice with super concentrated tang mix shake and pour into tang rimmed glass be careful... you wont even know you are drinking until you stand up!
  12. Ohhh! I am so excited for you! One more thing to check off the list. I am also excited that he is interested in the planning.... makes it so special! I can't wait until you get to post your wedding pics!
  13. mmmmm..... martinis....! My fav martini is the "Buzz Aldren" from the continental. If you like tang this is the one for you!
  14. I love the donkey! We had it for just a regular vacation to mexico with 5 other couples. The only downside is the size. Each of us from the 6 couples signed it along with a short message and it was completely covered. Maybe look for a larger one or maybe one for each table!
  15. I just logged on and saw what seemed like a million newbies....I just want to welcome all of you and say congratulations! Enjoy this amazing time in your lives! Welcome to the site... I know you will find it helpful (and addictive)!
  16. I usually use raw dough from shoprite. I think you can also get it from a bakery or pizza place. My biggest suggestion is to get a pizza stone.... it cooks a nice even crunchy crust. Have fun! I love homemade pizza!
  17. Funny I read today about the titles but it did not show how to get to each and what it means. I just noticed that I went from a noob to a junior member? How? Why? What does it mean for me?
  18. my opinion is that you should tip like 20-30 each time because you might not get the same girl each time and they are up in your woo-hoo! let us know how it turns out!
  19. First let me say that I have never seen this post before and didn't read any of the replies. Second, let me say that I am a Respiratory Therapist and not a DR, RN or any of the such. Finally, let me say that if you are not confidant about the care that a doctor is giving you---- find a new one. There are a lot of doctors out there and there are a lot of patients. As a patient you should be able to discuss and then question anything and feel comfortable while there. I am sure that there is one that you can be comfortable with. Also, if you have problems with UTIs and kidney infections you should consider seeing a Urologist or Nephrologist once a year to prevent problems. I hope that you get the right meds to give you relief.

    Newbie!!!

    Welcome to the forum!!!! But be careful because you will become addicted! As for choices between atmosphere and affordability.... there is great DIY stuff that looks great but won't break the bank! Good luck finding your destination and CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement.
  21. Oh... it sounds so yummy but I am not a fan of white chocolate.... do you think a substitution for milk chocolate would still be good?
  22. This is a great thread/topic because just about everyone has lost someone special in our lives. I lost my grandmother just a few months ago after a brave/strong/courageous.... battle with cancer. Every time my dad saw her she would ask if I was getting married yet. Although the engagement was after her death I know she smiles upon me. I think that I would use the first part in my program and ask the people there to read/recite/pray/think the second part out loud. ("Perhaps they are not stars".... for program and someone reading "Those we love do not go away.' Good Luck finding the perfect way to honor those who have left you behind... in the end I think that - the people that you have loved that passed away are still with you. No matter what you say for them... they know that the love was a two way street and love does not need words. Thank you for the post. ps- I am totally tearing up with the tears flowing down (aka crying)
  23. Although we haven't chosen our destination I am really leaning towards a couples resort so I can't wait to see the posts in here!
  24. I think that it will look beautiful and I am sure you will be the only one to notice that your rings are not the same. I used to worry about mixing jewelry but now I remind myself of all the two tone jewelry out there!
