Hot Chocolate with Magic Friends

wake up!

And me too! Although, I don't know how she's doing at the moment. I think I hit her with something kinda heavy. But she seemed to be doing fine too.

As long as you act like you always have, she should be just fine. If anything, she'll think before she speaks next time. :shrug:

No prob!


Yay for getting the times you wanted! :sohappy:

It's just a cold. I'll live. :kiss: Plus, as you know, Moms can't get sick. The house will crumble around us.

Don't I know it Kristin! :animwink: Although sometimes you have to live with the ruins for a while. :lol:

Hello - booked my three TS ressies today for our vacation. :sohappy:I was able to get the times I wanted too, which surprised me, since I'm about a month behind in making the ressies and they're all character meals too. Given the other dining threads, I'm glad I'm not making more...eating at Disney is getting far too expensive.
Other than that it's been kind of a 'meh' day...I think I'm just tired. :shrug:I hope everyone else here is well though. :kiss:

Yay for dinning ressies!! I really should make mine for CRT. Even though I am not "officially" accepted for the CP yet, since they are having it I am 99% going down. I'm not too worried about it though. The last couple of years I was able to book it in April.

Oh, I almost forgot. I just went to the Picture of the Day thread- wow! A couple of the pictures almost blew me away (namely the mnsshp Town Square one, and the rainbow ones).

I plan to. I don't plan on acting any different really. And yes, it was a lesson for her, at least. (She's still so young...I gotta give her the benefit of the doubt a bit)

How old was she, Nibbs? I forget.

I was 20, almost 21, but I remember someone at my wedding that I was in high school with...she was getting married three weeks later and was so stressed out. She couldn't believe how relaxed I seemed...but really at that point, as long as the unity candle didn't fall over and set my dress on fire, I was pretty much OK that day. :lol:

Yikes, you were so young!

I was 26, and DH was 31 when we tied the knot.

She is 20.

See, the difference with her was she was like "I wanted to have everything planned. Everything had to be planned. I do better with a plan" but you can't plan everything. It just doesn't work.

 

[nibblesandbits]

I was 23 when I got married. Still young, but definitely well on my way to a life. I had at least graduated college and stuff.

I know...DH had just graduated in June and we married the weekend before Labor Day....17 years ago this August! :sohappy::sohappy:

We look at our wedding pics now and say, 'Awww hon, look how young and naive we are'!!! :lol:

Yikes, I hope she isn't that way when she has kids..she'll be a head case in six months. :dazzle:
I mean, I'm not discounting needing some kind of plan. But it was more important to me that I was prepared for MARRIAGE. The wedding is one day of your life. And if you're marrying your best friend and surrounded by the people you care about the most when that day arrives, everything else falls into place. The one thing I was most picky about was our photographer, the other stuff not so much.

You are so right. Too often, brides (Steph-stop reading for a minute :lookaroun) get so caught up in THE WEDDING that they forget that the day after the wedding, they will be married. For life. I think if all couples put as much effort into their marriage as they do planning their wedding, there would be a lot less divorce. Of course, planning my wedding stressed me out and I wanted it all to be perfect, but at the end of the day, I wanted to be married to my best friend forever...

And that's the smart way to do a wedding. I know that's why I married WHF and was so calm about my wedding. I knew I couldn't plan everything...I just wanted it to be nice.

She is a case I worry about b/c we have what we've coined as Post Wedding Depression. It's when a bride gets so excited about planning the wedding and then gets depressed when it's all over. She's one who I think might be suseptable to that. Which is a shame. She married a great guy, if I do say so myself.

Sorry I disappeared. I had to restart my computer.:brick:

I remember that during premarital counseling, the gentleman that married us said that 'divorce' shouldn't even be something one jokes about - the seriousness of our vows and our desire to take those vows to heart meant that divorce would never be an option. I think a lot of people that regard marriage so lightly don't really take the time to think about those vows. It's just something they have to do to get to the reception.

That's how I feel right now. But...I'm not sure how to get around it. I mean, we have to have a cake, supposedly we have to have flowers (though I'm not really a flower person ), we have to feed everyone so we need a caterer, apparantly we can't just stand up there and say "I do" there has to be an officiant (which is the main thing that's stressing me out right now because we're hitting so many road blocks). There's certain things that you do have to have there. Add 1239.4 miles in there and these things really do need to consume us for at least the month or so it takes us to find them. BUT we're doing it together and, I think, dealing with the challenges that we are and solving them together...I think is good for us as a couple. If that makes sense :veryconfu

Quick hello :wave:

Hello Steph! I don't think I said congrats on the apartment yet! Yay! :sohappy:

I think I would be stressed having to plan from that distance too sweetie. ((HUGS)) Stick together and talk it all out - things will fall into place. :kiss:
