Only a few people really know this. So I have decided to tell the world. I had a brother once. When I came into this world on November 13th, 1985 he was 11. So when I was 7 he was gone. He moved to another state and basically I figured he just moved on with his life. Yes my mother and him talked frequently and yes there were a few visits of sorts but, besides that I don't think I had ever talked to him on the phone. Never thought he cared to. Well next week, six years ago is the anniversary of his death. If I didn't have a bad enough Week already by fighting with my bff about the wedding and work related issues, his anniversary is coming up during my vacation week!
Well now done with the sappy prelude. I talked to my ex-sister in law last night for about 2 hours on facebook chat. Since she had requested me to be her friend out of the blue. This would be the first time we have actually said more then hi or by to each other. I had asked her if my nieces could be the flower girls and she was very delighted. So much that she was looking for a plane ticket right then at 12 in the morning. I insured her to wait till we had a definite date and she got the save the date notices. I just hope she doesn't get mad that my nephew doesn't get to be the ring bearer or anything cause Scott has chosen his godson Joey. I also hope she doesn't get too excited then backs down a couple months later. I would understand if it was because of money. Thats 3 kids and 2 adults plane tickets (yes she's remarried) from Texas.
Now this is a great plateau to overcome. I'm super excited about her saying yes. I was to begin to worry about that little detail...lol

Bridal Expo problems
So yesterday was the bridal expo at Germain Arena. I had asked my MOH to come with me last week or so. At first she was hesitant because it cost 5 dollars. I already know I am going to have to plan and pay for my bridal shower and bachelorette party all by myself, but come on 5 bucks. She finally said yes. Told Scott I finally got her to do something with me, he said please get a back up cause you know how she is. So I asked my mother if she bailed if she would come and she said yes.
O.K... So yesterday came. I was scheduled to get off at 1pm. My MOH wanted me at her house at 1. I said can I go home a get ready first... She said and I quote " I am a planner and I planned dinner out @ 5 or 6, don't have time for you to be late. The expo was 1 to 5, she needed to swing by her gmas house to pick up her son and I needed to swing to my parents house also. They are in San Carlos Park both of them. It takes 40 minutes to get home from there. So basically we had like an hour for the expo. She didn't have the decency to spend time with me. She's my MOH if I want a whole or Half of a day with her every week or other week then she should be willing. She wanted the position soo badly and now she wont step up?
I was going to have my long time friend (17+ yrs)be it but she lives in Gainsville and she has became very distant and wont talk to me about anything anymore so I changed me mind. I had like a few others on my mind to be bridesmaids but haven't asked them yet cause I have only known them for a few years. I'm not a loser that find anyone. Most of my friends have moved to far away places over the years so, I don't think they will even be able to make it to my wedding let alone be in it.
After the blow-up with my MOH I was pissed. My replacement at work came late and instead of leaving early I left on time. So couldn't make it to my MOH house by 1pm.
Anyways, My mother was my back-up for the Expo. Since I didn't remind her on Friday, she had forgotten about it and made plans. Well her Sunday plans are always to cook for my dad and g-pa or they get mad, so I don't blame her for forgettening. When I told my mother of what happened so far that day, she gave in and said lets go. I'm getting sick of having to act like I was 10-16 and cry and say nasty things to get my way. I'm grown now and want to simply ask and have a simple yes or no. I did that first but because I was so mad the brat came out. I said no I'll go by myself, you really don't want to come anyways. I drove there crying, walked in with an hour to spare. I saw like 8 or 9 couples I knew there and I freaked!!! Just freaked...maybe because I was alone and I absolutely hate being alone! Especially in a public place. I took some brochures and ran out the door!!! Went to my parents house had a great dinner and some drinks to calm down.
Oh and I ended up talking to my g-pa about school last night and he asked why I wasn't still Attending since I don't have a degree yet. I replied I have been changing majors so much I have wasted too much time. I told him I really want to be a teacher now and that's final. I also told him If I had the money I would go with no interruptions. All he said was oh ok. I thought I was so close for School money. My father even thought I got far cause that's like the first convo we have had in weeks/months. Yeah wedding money would be great but school money is even better!

O.M.G-The start to craziness!
About two weeks ago I myspaced my soon to be brother in law because my fiancee wouldn't and he told me to do it. I asked him once again to please give us a date. Today he called Scott and we came up with April the 10th. It's not set in stone, Jamey (bro. in law) still has to get it approved.
This is where the O.M.G comes in-April! That's three months earlier than planned. Now I have to adjust my to-do list dates. NOW is the time to finalize our venue, and put down a down payment. With what money? We have about $200 saved give or take. Right now I wish I was Cinderella and had a fairy god mother to sprinkle down 2k to help us through the rough start but, I know it won't happen. When I was 20 my grandfather told me he would pay for my wedding, if I got married after I turned 21 and here I am 23 now, I think it was an empty gesture/promise. Anyways, a month or so ago he asked "When is the wedding?" and I said "When we get the money" and he was like "ok...so never?". I asked my parents to remind him of such statement and they were like no, you do it. I have tried to a few times but it's never the right time. Scott and I are going to have to really buckle down and not spend a penny extra. This means again postponing me going back to college till after the wedding. I am not liking this at all but, it is what I have to do.
Me and my M.O.A have some real stuff to start doing also. This week coming up we have to talk to florists and such to check out pricing before my vacation on the 30th. plus I have to Spring-Summer clean my house. It needs it. This all before vacation.Crazytown is just around the corner. All for now, more soon to come! TTYL!
