Third Person Thursday
Stacey is still having anxiety attacks about this supposed wedding she's supposed to coordinate this weekend. She updated her original post from yesterday.
Stacey is loving this weather right now. They got a ton of rain several days ago, but for the past 3 days, it's been sunny and spring-like. Everything is blooming!
Stacey thinks she injured her quad. She's not happy about it because she really wants to do this race.

Dana wishes that Stacey would not stress over the wedding. Dana also wonders if Stacey heard back from crazy, stupid bride girl this morning.
Dana is happy to get a doctor appointment for Dana's back pain. Dana is now worried that Dana's kidneys are acting up since the pain is wrapping around to the front of the belly.
Dana is happy to have a day without rain!

Stacey updated her post from yesterday. She did hear back from crazy bride LAST NIGHT on facebook.
Dani saw Stacey's post regarding having not heard from Psycho last night but wanted to know if Stacey heard from Psycho this morning.
Shaina is saying this in her nicest internet voice, but Stacey-Tell the Girl she is SOL and it's not your problem. Shaina would also like to point out that depending upon where the reception is, the bride could just as easily give a drawing to the catering manager or event person to direct traffic. And Shaina would also like to say that her DJ kept the reception going and should have a list of events to follow.
Shaina's DH said she may be able to get a kitty after the cruise. Shaina found the perfect one, spayed and declawed (DH wants declawed) and she is sooo cute! Of course this is the week DH's allergies are off the hook and Shaina is sad that the kitty might be a no due to DH, but it's not fair for him to be miserable for a cat.
Wives Unscripted
Teresa read the update about crazy bride. Teresa agrees with Stacey's idea about the pricing. Teresa hopes the bride will just say forget it and Stacey can stop stressing.
Teresa is worried about her mom. She is so stressed out about her mom moving up here. Teresa's mom is so overwhelmed with all the unpacking, organizing and making sure Teresa's grandma is liking the assisted living home. Last night Teresa's mom called her grandma, and her grandma was talking about how she can't work her stereo, she has trouble hearing on the phone and my mom couldn't understand what she was saying so she ended up going over to help at 9:30 and didn't get home until almost 11:30. Teresa's mom easily gets overwhelmed and Teresa knew this was going to happen, she even asked her mom about it. But her mom won't ask for help and is going to have a breakdown. Ugh this really frustrates Teresa.
Teresa and DH are going to visit DH's cousin this weekend who is going to check himself into a mental health facility again this weekend. He is going through the beginnings of a messy divorce (only married less than 2 years and have a 2.5yr old son, she has 2 other kids from previous relationships). His wife put an order of protection against him last month so he can't see his son. Tues was supposed to be the court date, but she didnt' have a lawyer so it got pushed back another month. Teresa can't understand how this is legal. This man is a great father, and is not violent. He has been having issues with depression and did "attempt" suicide, but it was more a cry for help than an actual attempt. Teresa feels so bad because there is nothing anyone can do until the court date mid may.
she hopes this weekend will lift his spirits when he gets visitors. He has been confiding a lot in Teresa and she doesn't quite know why since it is a large family and he could talk to one of his actual cousins.
Teresa is sorry this got really long. Teresa has had a lot of family issues this past month. Teresa needed to vent about these things. Teresa probably should have started a second post about all this since it was so long. Oh well.

Stacey's on the same page with Dana and Dani now
Stacey has not heard back from the bride but she didn't facebook her back until this morning so she's fully expecting not to hear from her until tonight.
Stacey would love to tell her she's SOL, but Stacey knows that will cause more anxiety for her because she'll feel like she's leaving someone hanging even though Stacey fully understands the shitty situation this girl has put her in. Stacey has a hard time saying no when she knows people need her help.
Whitney thinks Stacey should go with her plan and if the girl is not happy with it then oh well, her own fault.
Whitney feels bad for Teresa's hubby's cousins. The legal system when it comes to divorces can be really crappy. Whitney's dad went through a mess of a divorce from his second wife. Even though he was a great dad and she was a terrible mom, they initially gave her full custody and Whitney's dad had to fight for over 5 years to get joint custody. Now her sister's mom does not even want to see the girls. It just proves she was only wanting her daughters for child support money.
Whitney is slightly stressed because she has to go back to TN this weekend, and every weekend through May is super busy. She needs to get her house cleaned up before it gets too hot and she gets super huge and uncomfortable.

Shelley has had a busy morning and just now had the chance to log in.
Shelley is so ready for vacation. She found her passport last night which made her feel 500 times more relaxed.
Shelley's MIL is spending the night tonight because she is flying to Antigua in the morning and Shelley lives 10 miles from the airport. So when Shelley gets home she has to clean up the futon, change the sheets in the guest room, and sweep the upstairs and stairs before MIL gets to the house. Shelley will also be doing laundry while she is there. Once the house is clean, all Shelley will need to do to get ready for vacation is pack!
Wendy is sending hugs to both Theresa and Stacey!!
Wendy is thoroughly annoyed by a customer who sent me an e-mail reflecting changes they decided to impelement on her invoices. Wendy wants to say "Mrs. Customer you can't go around changing peoples invoices, life is not that easy how would you like it if someone did that to you?"
Crazy cakes bride just called Stacey back and asked her to do just the rehearsal and ceremony. Stacey's fine with that because it's easy and she'll make $300.
Glad she finally contacted you in a way you wanted. Shelley is glad that Stacey only needs to do the rehearsal and ceremony and not the reception as well. Sounds less stressful and like an easy $300.
Shelley also thinks that Stacey needs to keep us updated on how the events go.
