More things adding to my stress...when will it end?

- Dad was rushed to the hospital yesterday b/c he passed out at work (he owns his own business - fortunately a customer came in and helped him)....we think it might be another hit of his kidney stones, but nothing has been confirmed yet. Fortunately, they gave him pain killers to alleviate his pain, and we'll find out more soon.

- I walk into my apartment yesterday and my mom is already showing it to perspective tenants!!!! Talk about not even allowing the dust to settle....I'm not out yet - and not leaving until the earliest MARCH....are you trying to make me leave early???? Fortunately, Ricky (FI) stood up for me and told my mother that it was really disheartening to do something like that to me, and she apologized, and said she'll wait until I'm gone first.

- Looks like we might ending up moving into our house in January instead of March....some folks think this is great, but I don't....we're rennovating and it's the worst when you have to live in a house while it's under renovation -with all the dust (which I'm severely allergic to) and dirt. However, there's a bright side that we can take our time with the renovations rather than being rushed in one month, as originally planned.

- I received a phone call a few weeks ago telling me that the BM dresses were in - great right? Well, I call last night to set up their first fitting (target for January) and I'm told that it was a mistake and the dresses won't be here until January. Fortunately, that's still enough time for the ladies, so that's not really a stress but I hate being lied to...and if you make a mistake, at least have the decency to call me and tell me it was a mistake!

Okay, I'm done with my venting! Thanks ladies!

I just went through something very similar with my dad, Chris. Let me know if you want to talk.

oh sweetie. I hope dad is ok. hugs and prayers to you now.

you're mom is certainly getting a jump on things, isn't she. Good for Ricky- that is something that can wait a bit.

do you HAVE to move then? you should only do it when you are comfortable doing it, so you start out on a good note. you shouldn't start the experience of living together in misery- you have years of marriage for that!


grrrr. oh well-I see your point. just take a breath and let it go (unless of course they do it again!)

Oh, I'm sorry! I hope your dad is doing better. Your mom showing off your apartment sounds exactly like what my mom would do! I'm glad your FH stood up for you. Sometimes it's good to have someone on the outside to stand up to your family. I'm sure everything will work out, but I know this all hit you at once. So, to you! Feel better!

Take a deep breath. The next 5 months will be the most stressfull months you will ever endure in your life. Remember that this is a happy time & don't let things get the better of you. Everything will come together in the end.


for your dad.

Christine, I am so sorry about your dad. Here's hoping he will be ok.

As for your mom, that does sound like she was jumping the gun. Good for FI to stand up for you!!

And for the dress shop, I understand the frustration, but it's minor in the grand scheme of things. If it makes you feel any better, I was told not to order the BM dresses until NEXT WEEK because of the 2 BMs I had that just gave birth. She said she would rush order them, so I am nervous about that!!
