Here she goes with the HM ramblings again...
So, we still don't have a Honeymoon. I still don't really want to go on one this year because of timing, and money, etc.
FMIL is giving us $1000 toward one and is insisting we go do something. We had decided on VA Beach, which was nice, but it wasn't what we really wanted. I would like to keep the $1000 for now, and use it toward the HM we really want next year, but FMIL continues to insist that we have to go on some sort of honeymoon.
Depending on where I get a job, I may have to start orientation 2 days after the wedding. And even if I do get the week, I know me, and I won't be able to relax. I'll either be stressing about starting my first teaching job, or stressing that I don't have a job.
FH agrees with me that we should save the money she's giving us for the real honeymoon that we want next year, but when FMIL gets something in her head, it's hard to get it out.
I appreciate that she's giving us this money and all, but I feel like everything I'm doing for this wedding is to make the mothers happy, even though I'm not happy with it.
I mean, why can't we just save the money to do something we really want to do when we have the time, and the money to supplement it, instead of doing something half assed just for the sake of doing something.
I know FMIL means well, but she's so insistant.![]()
