A purchase... in 2020
For the reception :) It has a white backer on it (that’s the white stuff sticking out; that gets removed). I’m not sure where I’m going to put it now. Originally I thought behind us at the head...
....... And new girl quit. She almost lasted two weeks. She came in late today, dressed in a sweatshirt and some gross pants. She looked like she didn’t shower. She sat at her desk, opened her e...
I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve updated and yet I still don’t have much to say. Still training new girl. Still hating it. I don’t have patience to train. I just wanted my desk back to ...
training people. I just don’t have the patience for it. Although, she’s alright. I don’t hate her. I’m just naturally a negative person. Haha. I want my space back. I’m sick of sharing my des...
Oh, great.... in 2020
We are THREE DAYS AWAY from Andy’s closing on his condo that he owns with his ex. THREE DAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYS................. and the sale falls through. The buyer’s loan got denied. Apparent...
I wrote so many long complainy entries but just don’t feel like putting that out there so I delete and delete and delete. So here’s an update: MUA from MT sucks at getting back to me and it’s i...
So on Monday evening, Andy complained about there being a dull ache in his chest. It wasn’t anything sharp and no other things happening so we left it and had a quiet night. He was very odd and I...
Weekend update... in 2020
NOTHING SPECIAL. Weekends just go by way too fast and they are never long enough. I got two bouquets on Friday :) One for work and one for home <3 We spent a lot of time together, playing...
Unloading. in 2020
I have a killer headache. I think it’s lack of sleep. I was tired by 10pm last night but Andy was finishing up playing his game then wanted to take a shower. We probably got to bed at 11 and by t...
I have another question. in 2020
So for this destination wedding, we’re blocking the rooms from 10-16th. Most people are coming on the 11th so we were going to have a welcome event in the hotel wine room. We will provide appeti...
Ball hammocks. in 2020
So, you guys know those Shinesty boxers? The “ball hammock” boxers. I always laughed at them because the ads are ridiculous but I bought Andy a pair… and now I am obsessed. They literally make h...
Um. Quick update in 2020
Weekend was good. Private cinema thing was great and we’ll be doing it again. Andy’s daughter had a first over the weekend (for us). She was too scared to go to sleep on Saturday night. Tried n...
Not sure about all that. in 2020
So Andy’s brother’s girlfriend came up with this bright idea to make Andy and his dad a personalized calendar for Christmas… with monthly pictures of Andy’s daughter. She’s a “photographer”… (or...
Do you feel like 2 hours is enough for a buffet style dinner for a group of 30? Background: Destination wedding. Getting married at a National Park. Having dinner in a lounge place. It’s not a ...
A little stress lifted... in 2020
Photographer got back and said she’s available on new wedding date. That was the one I was most worried about. Officiant… is another story so we’ll have to find a new one and they seem to be ver...
I could cry. in 2020
HIIIIIIII THE HOTEL THAT I’VE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH WHO TOLD ME MY DATES WERE AVAILABLE SO I ASKED AND CONFIRMED WITH ALL MY GUESTS THAT THEY’RE GOOD TO STAY THERE.... COULDN’T SEND ME THE CONTRAC...
Snowwww and a few kitchen pics. in 2020
Sometimes I just don’t feel like writing a play by play detail of my weekend. It was okay. I left work early to go shopping. I got new dishes because I recently ordered new shades. I had existin...
I hate paint. Went to Menards yesterday to get paint. Had my old can of kitchen paint to match. I just needed three small touch up areas. Got home. Touched up areas to prep for stencil. It.does...
I hate video games.
Current goal: in 2020
I feel like I need to get three big things done and I can take a break from wedding planning for a few months. Hair and make up people for MT and home (even though technically hair is booked fo...
How many breakdowns are allowed in 2020
during the wedding planning process? (not really but just asking because I think it’s bound to happen?) Talking with MOH today. She’s asking about all these details of the centerpiece. I told ...
I hate my hair (pics) in 2020
I KNOW it’s a process. I am a worst nightmare when it comes to coloring hair because I have years and years and years of at home DARK color on my head. (If it lessens the blow a little bit, it...
Another opinion needed... in 2020
My venue has a loft area so it has a pretty large staircase in the room. Opinions on decorating the railing? Would you? How? Our look is very rustic so the white tulle draping is a negative.
So I mentioned before that I have a small blank wall in my kitchen that I always wanted to use as an accent wall so I bought a stencil. I debated wallpapering it but… Andy didn’t really like tha...
A wedding first (for me).. in 2020
I experienced one of those things you read about and dread happening to you. A minor dread but big enough for me because I hate telling people no! Background although at this point, everyone kno...
