Ugh this week has been horrible for me! I had friends in town and the weekends eats were less than desirable. Also, I didn’t come to work Monday since they were here, making me have to work 4 /10 hour days to make it up. I have an hour commute each way, so my days have been about 12 hours. So no workouts for me. Ok, my pity party is over! Now I have to report on the immense stress that I’m under right now. FI was casually looking for jobs, as his firm started doing layoffs. He’s in a very specialized area, so jobs have been scarce. We find out last week that he has an interview in LA this past Wednesday. We were on the fence about it, as we wanted to go home to Denver. But he went anyway. He’s not sure how it went, but they said they would want him to start RIGHT away. LA is about 350 miles south of us. THEN we hear that his current firm may have lost one of their biggest clients- which means current job could go belly up soon…..so now we WANT the LA job. I don’t know how it would work though. He would have to move down first alone, find a place alone- I would have to give my two weeks notice, pack the apartment, have him come up to help move 2 weeks later……………all a month in a half before the wedding!? And if he doesn’t get it………… we’re pretty much screwed if he gets laid off. I think I just gained a lb thinking about it………………Sorry for the book!!! I just feel like I’m going to scream.. Thanks for listening ladies

I did a low carb once- i think I lasted almost a week- weekling I've done that before. I lost 20 lbs in a month! However, I didn't do it the healthy way. I basically just ate eggs, meat, cheese etc. I looked great, but my body didn't feel healthy. I ended up gaining it back over a year, but that was just due to my eating habits!

And I've never heard about this 20/mth fee... weird...

I've never had a bad experience with them. We've used them quite a bit too! As been said before, just make sure to read the restrictions.

I am 6 weeks away from my big dayand I feel like it's make or break for me at this point!!

Thank you: card

Thanks! I had actually looked into this one and was seriously considering it. FI would have not been happy about the bad ziplining and rappeling!

Like DIY projects?

I agree that I hadn't heard anything about the $2 to deliver to rooms. I am wondering too, if they would charge to give them to people at the front desk- I was under the impression that we could (and maybe leave a tip?) I think that's my only question right now..... Thanks Paige for easing my mind about Ael a little bit. I'm sure this is their busiest season! And wow- your day is coming so fast! Did you ever decide how you were going to handle the 'outside photographer' thing?

Gonna say at my wedding: Hell Yes! (just kidding, I think an I do will do)

Depressing: when wedding is over!

Today I would get FI and my puppy, and go for a long hike. Then make a fantastic dinner! If you absolutely couldn't afford a wedding, would you elope?

FI has an interview today! Please get me out of this small town and move me to LA!!

Like (anything with hot sauce!) Tofu?

Everything looked fabulous!!! Glad you had a blast!

Laurence Fishbourne: what's love got to do with it

I just had to say- everytime I see your 'type A' quote below your name I crack up! Everything looks great!

Thanks Staicy! Paige- I'm not sure which poem you're talking about, I'm either putting 1. Shake me for a kiss 2. Shake with all your might to see the bride and groom kiss tonight (need to see if it fits) I know a lot of people put 'shake at the kiss' but we're not giving them at ceremony. We're waiting until dinner since we have such a long time in between. How long on average did Ael take to contact everyone? I still havent been contacted and I'm getting a little worried!

Yay Celina!!! I'm so happy you're liking it and doing well. I have not started yet- waiting for FI to get back into town. Looking forward to it though! Oh, and your dogs are so precious! I'll bet they're a handful......

Love it!! I had the same dream the other night- and I am very in order. Just weird how our minds go wild!~ Quote: Originally Posted by mimi73 I thought mine was bad enough, but it was nothing like all of yours. I had a dream that the resort wedding cake they gave me had bright green icing (my colour is turquoise!) and they filled the layers with dill pickle slices. I was mortified!! And no.... I am not pregnant! I wonder what the dream means??!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
