It's a Jolly Holiday with LL. *FINISHED* Final Update on pg. 58.

[Charleston Princess]

Hehehe. Thanks! I feel so loved!

I noticed I made a typo in my response -- it should have been my, not by -- I fixed it, but you probably knew what I meant!

What a bunch of blethers you girlies are I've been really busy (mostly due to DD12's end of school socializing ) so I've had tones to catch up on

#1 - Aww LL Macushla, what a rotten time you've been having with that vileness that is your MOH...I think you need to all in your power to encourage her to resign her post as she does not deserve that honour. (I had been going to put in the bouncing Malifecent but I quite like Old M and that particular Witchling does not deserve our bouncing Malifecent )

#2 - Brendan Fraser - he is on my list....hot hot hot

#3 - you guys are having 'Lapu Lapu Fest II' and I wont be able to be there as I'm a summer'09 gal You girlies better have a drinkiepoo in my honour

#4 - CP your just about there let me know what POR is like because if the finance fairy doesn't do her magic we may be there next year.

LL just keep going to your happy place (yes I mean the DIS) and try to ignore all the static around your wedding because when it comes down to it the only two people who matter are you and your DF. If it helps any I had major amounts of crapolla from my MOH when DH and I got married but once we got to the day it didn't matter a jot and we had the most wonderful time . It did probably help that we were going on our Disneymoon the next day

Thank you so much!! That is why I love the DIS so much, I feel so loved!!

Thanks again CP. Did you wake up and do a jig this morning?

 

[Charleston Princess]

Thanks again CP. Did you wake up and do a jig this morning?

I most certainly did! I hope today flies by, but I also hope I manage to get everything done!

 

[If U Had Wings]

Just think, at least it's Friday! It's not very nice out this morning here in CT, but the rest of the weekend they are calling for hot sticky weather. I'm going to try for an invite to my brother's pool.

If your MOH gives you anymore grief, just start ignoring her. I'd say boot her from the wedding party, but that's too much stress at this point. Just give her the bare bones info - where to go, what time etc. and expect nothing from her. Then whatever she actual does can be a bonus.

I have faith in you. You'll get everything done with time to spare.

That's the plan. I am going to tell her I do not want her spending the night with me the night before the wedding like we have previously discussed, that will make me feel soooo much better!

Thank goodness! I really need to partake in some fun this weekend. Not only am I stressed out to the max because of the wedding, DF and I have started bickering and fighting. Ugh. I hate it, but sometimes I just don't think I am getting the help that I need from him with all of this wedding stuff.

 

[If U Had Wings]

Men just don't get the wedding thing for the most part. After seeing my brother and my friends get married I've come to that conclusion. Again they need simple directions - where to go, when to be there and let them handle the details that mean the most to them. With my brother it was the honeymoon plans, one of my other friends only cared about the music as he was a musician. Most of them just don't care why some of those small details are important.

Truuuust me....I have tried that. Ugh. I just have to do it all, which is even more frustrating to me since DF is the one who wanted the traditional wedding. I was all for vegas or WDW nuptials!
I had a meltdown about the ipod this morning which led to a huge fight, I know nothing about ipods and I just wanted him to help me and he is clueless and it's just frustrating and in.............22 days it will all be over.

 

[Tinkerbellarella]

I got a pin offer in my email today when I got home. I couldn't believe it, I thought they were a myth, a fable, a tall tale everyone talks about to make themselves feel better for all the money we give the mouse.

Seriously? Seriously. I can't even make an excuse to go on another trip this year (my checking account just wouldn't understand) and I'm jealous of your PIN code!

Boy, for a girl who doesn't like math..eh?

Look at YOU getting all mathy!

Can we please please please please please figure out some sort of DIS meet in Disneyworld?

Where's my girl Tink at??????

Your girl Tink is here now.

Do you think whilst you're fenagling that we could talk Tink, PKB, CP, and whoever else I've left out into going? I mean, seriously people, a DIS meet at the WORLD!!!! What's better than Lapu Lapu Fest 2 - The Search for More Rum?

I would love to be able to do this this year, but alas, unless relationship circumstances change I won't be able to swing it. The BF and I are planning on doing a cruise as a birthday/Christmas combo so I likely wouldn't be able to take additional time off or scrape up the pennies.

2009, however, might be a completely different story.

My mom heard from my MOH. She told her this big huge sob story about how she can't even afford to pay for her own spa treatments and that she had to borrow money for it. She picked her spa treatments when she knew she was losing her job. Why did she pick what she did then?

Why in the good Lord's name is she calling your mom to tell you this?

I'll tell you why, so your mom will tell you and she doesn't have to.

Because I think she knows that if she did at this point, you'd be after her. With your car.

Or your moped. Whatever.

and she turned down TWO job offers because she wanted the summer off. That was her choice, she knew she had obligations for my wedding.

Even without your wedding in consideration, this was just plain stupid considering the current state of our economy.

It's not about the money, it's about having friends who care about you and try to make your life just a little easier in one of the most stressful situations ever. I'm at the point where I don't even want her there standing next to me on the wedding day.

Aw, sweetie. I feel so bad that things are working out this way with her for you. Like I said in an earlier post, I know not everyone has a lot of money. Finances are stressors for EVERYONE. But she shouldn't be making this day any harder for you because of her bad planning and selfishness. If I were you at this point I would interact with her only as much as you need to and in a few short weeks, it'll be all over. I'm also a stickler on honesty so, at some point after the wedding, when you're back from the cruise, you Disney trip is right on the horizon, I would sit down with her and let her know how her actions made you feel. She might not even realize it, but if that were me, I'd want someone to tell me. It might put a strain on your relationship, but it might strengthen it too, after all is said and done.

Hang in there. We're here for you.

Okay, you know what? Anything with Brendan Fraser in it is good!

BF and I saw a preview for the new 'Journey to the Center of the Earth' which he is in. Looks like a good family flick.

I am a Scorpio -- I don't handle people messing with me and mine (and that includes my DISsies!) very well.

BF is a Scorpio too. He's all sorts of fiery!

LL, you are a wonderful person and you deserve all the joy that life can bring you. Please take the next few weeks to really appreciate the good things and the thing which is most important above all others - a marriage to a wonderful man. DF doesn't necessarily need to understand it all. He just needs to be there for you. Please, please, please try to enjoy this. You don't want to look back on it later on and think of how miserable it was. This is YOUR day with DF. Cherish it.

And as for tomorrow, I'm available if you need a 'hit' on a certain 'MOH' while she's all sprawled out on the massage table.

Sorry, must be the Italian in me.

I know! I think I will anger the pin gods if I don't use it.

Yayayayayayaya!! I think 2009 is a fabby idea(channeling 2SP since she won't be able to make it)I use the word fabby at least once a day now. I suggest during the first two weeks of December.

I think the relationship is done. She has been doing stuff like this (not to this degree) for years and I am fed up. I don't need her negativity or excuses anymore. I do plan on having a chat with her when it's all over.

Hehehe. Thank you so much. I am trying so hard to focus on DF and I but he is driving me to drink right now. Ack. We had a nice...ahem...clearing of the air this morning and I am going to go home tonight and just be lovey and happy.

I think you guys should change the meet name to "Lapu Lapu FabbyFest 2009" so that I can be there in spirit. Mind you, you're all assuming that there will be Lapu Lapu's left at the Poly when you get there...remember I'll have been there in July'09 and there is always the chance that as it's my Special birthday I may drink the place dry

That is way too funny! I second the name change.

 

[Charleston Princess]

That will be good!

TGIF Ladies!

I totally forgot today was Friday, because I don't think in days of the week anymore, I just think in numbers!

So, what you are saying is that we should take stock out in Dole or whoever supplies the Poly with their pineapples?

Oh yes that would be an excellent investment ...but tell me wouldn't this be considered "insider dealing" ?

 

[If U Had Wings]

I love the idea of a Lapu Lapu fest 2009. It may be the perfect time for the solo trip I've always wanted to take. Just a nice long weekend for myself!

Only if you work for Dole!
