I think your wedding sounds lovely and no thunder steeling. If she isn’t happy enough with just being married that’s her issue.
I always wanted to do courthouse in San Fran. It’s beautiful.
If someone gets their feelings hurt over you getting married in the same year, YEAR, then she is mentally unstable. A wedding is a day, not a year. People do this but it’s freaking ridiculous.
Alright let’s see if this pic works. I suck at this type of thing. Just me being as awesome as possible on a Disney trip.

Also, since I suck at this and Photobucket is loading like crap, if this links to my whole album or something, which I think it shouldn’t, let me know and I’ll take it down. No idea what is in there as I haven’t used it for years.
@veritek33 Oh I did get updated ears too last time I went! I’d say mine were also about 30 years old. My company did a thing where they send staff after the park technically closes (Land not World) for about two hours. That’s about the only way you’d get me to go. I have an itty bitty head so I was able to get the cute kids ones, and of course had my name embroidered.
Ugh @veritek33 I can’t think of anything i want to do less than go to a wedding at Disney World, let alone peak tourist season. Heck, just going to FL period. I know adults can be really into the Disney thing but I don’t get it, then again I was a kid who was never super into “kid” stuff quite the same way most seem to be. Also, I can’t imagine wanting a wedding with thousands of tourists, kids, etc. running around in the back round. You have my sympathy. Can you piggyback since you area already in FL and fly out to Bahamas or VI or something? 😉
@Rangerchick I have had three boxes total from Stitch, with a year in between the first two and this last one. The first two were awful. I have a large bust and they sent me these itty bitty tank tops that the girls wouldn’t even stay in. Then when I mentioned that they in turn sent me clothes my grandmother would wear. I tried one more time since I can’t shop many places here and was exhausted with scrolling through pages online and it was better, but I mean, sweaters aren’t super difficult to screw up.
Trunk Club was way better as it was brands I already shop at Nords, more on line with what I like…minus these ridiculously hideous jeans. I said no high waist and that I am short waisted as it is (so high waist on me go to the boobs it feels) and she sent the most hideous high waist, straight leg, cropped jeans in a very faded wash. I tried them on in case I just was totally wrong, but I was not.
Trunk Club. I decided, after a crappy Stitch Fix to finally sign up since I almost only shop at Nordstrom anyway. I debated the coat due to cost just because we are trying not to spend too much to save right now. Not totally insane considering of course I have them for many many many years, need another, and longer one as I now live in the Arctic apparently and, well, I’m not taking it off so there. The amount I have had to spend in outer wear since moving is traumatizing me, as it isn’t cheap to begin with and I have an aversion to polyester, both mentally as well as the rash that ensues.
Here’s the coat:
So lovely. I got the cream color but I love this as well.
Agree. Also wouldn’t take any advice from Nicole based on her sudden replies to everything. No one said you can’t feel something, you can feel whatever, but you can’t always react. I feel like telling people they are idiots sometimes, but I don’t, because, you know, maturity.
Just got my TrunK! So fun, and fun for how pent up I am with this weather. I liked most of it. I really cannot comprehend why they can’t comprehend what “NO RED” means. It is maroon but still. Also I said small on leggings and received an XS, which might still work, haven’t tried them on yet. Also NO HIGH WAIST jeans apparently means, send me high waist cropped jeans for winter that look like a blast from the 90’s in a really really horrible way. I don’t think even mom jeans are this bad.
BUT I have a great pair of AG jeans in my box, which is my current fav brand for fit, a beautiful cream wool coat from Ralph Lauren, a Rebecca Taylor sweater I love and some other tops. Since husband is working from home, and in the only room with full length mirrors, he is about to get a fashion show to decide what to keep. Wanting to go outside just to wear this coat…..but even it will not protect me from this weather.
OMG UPDATE the coat is lined in a cashmere blend….I am never taking it off.
Our baseboards are frosting up above our basement. Good grief. I swear when we move in a year, and have our house built (which is the plan) I am finding a builder myself and not trusting any tract home builder. Our house here is old but remodeled so I get that everything is not the newest and best but living in this house has shown me so many things that I would want to do different and have control over. Probably a blessing since it is bringing things to my attention so I can avoid them when we build.
I also cannot wait to get away from these ugly oak doors, cabinets and baseboards. I know they are nice quality and people like them but I am so tired of looking at them, they are so outdated to me. Everything in this area is oak though, believe me, I’ve looked.
Oh PS, the American customer service agent was such a B. Good lord. “Can he fly into another airport other than John Wayne, such as Orange County?” Me: “Oh well John Wayne is OC”. Her: “Ya, that’s what I said!” (nearly yelling) Um no it’s not. She told me “that’s what I said” about 10 times when she in fact had NOT said whatever it was she claims which is why I was asking. I seriously wanted to complain to AA but was not risking someone who can affect his flights, which required rescheduling a whole move, being mad. I think I will when he gets back though. I understand her probably being exhausted and stressed after all this weather crap but I was beyond polite to her even while she was being rude to me. AA is really the option flying out of here, as the only other airline that goes to So Cal is United and with basically one flight a day, but they are not making me love them right now. I am getting really fed up with paying airlines higher and higher prices while receiving poorer and poorer service.
American says no flights until Sat FYi
Grr husbands flight was just cancelled for tomorrow and looks like they aren’t even booking flights until Sat at the earliest, which are mostly full, and I am sure more full by the time i get through to rebook. Guess I am rescheduling movers, hotels, PTO, ughhhhh…. damn weather. Plan this for a year and it decides to be the worst in a generation now. I am going to go throw something at the snow I swear.
Think about it Copa. I was outside with the dog for 4 mins and had difficulty catching my breath when I came inside, like I had run.
Also bored stuck in this weather. Doing some laundry for husbands trip, made the kid pancakes this a.m. (and mini one for my dog), made loaded baked potato soup for lunch and made a bunch of random phone calls I have been neglecting (like returning my Toll transponder from CA).
