Anyone else dealing with these kind of issues

Yes, I did not go in person, I was online... so I'm gonna go check the stores tonight, and if unsuccesful, this week-end.

Also going to my second fitting tonight ! I had the straps length and bustle done. In three weeks I go again for the chest and waist... My seamstress even told me I could go even closer to the wedding but two weeks and a half before already stresses me, so... maybe I'll even go in two weeks.

Hum, I should be better with my diet for the 14 days to come ! I have not lost a pound since January !

It's exactly 6 weeks unitl my wedding day, which means we leave in 5 weeks. EEEKKK!

i said i hope you're not feeling too hurt over this, and his reply was, "i couldn't care less." so i joked with him that it was because he'd rather be in disney too (he's a disney freak!) and he said, "no, it's because i know she doesn't give a sh*t about me." ... so, he says he's not bothered, but he is. a lot. i feel bad.

Awww... that makes me sad for him. Did she give any excuse about why they would plan the disney trip if they had no $$$?

well, disney (even for 10 days) will cost less because they're a family of 4. the airfare alone to cancun for the 4 of them would be around $2000, plus passports if they don't have them. kids stay free at dreams, but the two adults would cost over $2000, so in total they were probably looking at about $4500. i'm sure with the specials being run by disney right now (and how cheap flights to florida are) they can go for the 10 days for less than $4500. it just *looks* kinda bad, since they planned it the week of our wedding, ya know? and then people just *reacted* without thinking about it from all sides.

LOL

Sooooo third-grade. I'm mad at one of my FB friends right now but I'm trying to talk to him about it versus just deleting him out of my FB life. Hey, big clue, deleting someone from FB does not delete them from your life.

That really sucks for him. I have 4 half-siblings and only one is coming. I'm pretty sure I believe them when they say its about money b/c they were all really excited when we first started talking about it. Plus, one sister is doing a lot for me with my shower and parties and such. I would be pretty crushed if they did something like this and we aren't even that close.

Wow. It's hard. Unfortunately, you don't chose your family. And it takes a lot of work to be at peace with not getting along with close family members... I'm glad his father reacted decently though ! At least he can feel some support on his side (with yours of course).

Aww Lisa Im sorry! I saw some of the drama on your wall - people are so passive aggressive! Im sorry for your FI but at least other people called her out on it - weddings really bring out people's true feelings hu!

 

Is anyone else realizing how much FREAKN $ is going into their beauty - i swear with waxing, hair cuts, tanning, manis/pedis, ect i feel like in the next month and a half im gonna spend over 500$ just to look somewhat better LOL
