wedding & honeymoon
wednesday night I flew back home. I kind of felt bad that my cousin Rick picked me up. He had just lost his father, and is going through all sorts of crap with his wife. I wanted to get to a store to buy things for the favors, but by the time I got home it was too late.
Thursday morning I went over and visited with Tissy. She came with me to run errands. It was nice to have someone there. Later Mary came up and we went to get our nails done. Then we wrapped presents for the bridal party....the tape took my nail polish off and I got really angry. I think that's when the real stress began. I calmed down later at the batchlorette party. The cake was a penis cake and it was really funny. Everyone was so amused. My mom was there for a little bit and actually laughed during Orgazmo. As the bride I was bossing people around and my excuse was "I'm the bride and I said so" I ordered people to do shots and everything.
Friday was prtty good to begin with. I had everything set together and putting the bells together didn't take too long. I found out I didn't have to wrap the favors in tuille which was awesome because that meant I didn't have to spend 6ish hours cutting tuille, cutting and nail polishing the ends of ribbon and actually putting the things together. Mary from the Foundry told me I could just bring the stuff over and they would put 3 kisses in the favors and sprinkle the rest on the table. The rehearsal was a bit confusing as Pastor Bill was more nervous than I was. He kept skipping things and AnneMarie and I were trying to find the best spot to come from. Anthony got a call during the rehearsal. It was his mom saying there were 9 extra people and that they were going to the rehearsal dinner. Well it would have been nice for someone to tell me ahead of time. I was really stressed that AnneMarie Rounds would be mad about it,
but it turned out okay. After that we went back to the hotel and hung out for a little while watching ever after and then went to bed.
Satyrday we were up early, but we were at the Rounds' on time. They were so cool about the whole thing. They had a bunch of bagels and eggs and ham and coffee and a whole bunch of other stuff to eat. They even bought roses to put in the rooms so we could "Dress in beauty. I was really nervous because my hair took a long time. I was getting my hair finished while I was
getting dressed so I had about 4 people working on me at once. We made it to the wedding with 2 minutes to spair. The ceremony went perfectly. We were rushed through pictures though because the food was ready. The DJ turned out to be really good, the cake was good and the company was good. Of course the food was too. The bill turned out to be a lot less than Anthony and
I had expected. We even got chair covers at no charge. The wedding night went well. Around midnight we went to cams for pizza because I was out of that corset so I could actually breathe and eat.
Anthony and I were supposed to be in room #3, which is the honeymoon suite. When Anthony told me we were in #1 I was angry. When I realized it what room it was I almost cried. It was a room with enough space for 6 people. It was really amazing.
When we checked into the resort we were offered an upgrade for only $20 extra per night. We decided not to take it. We stayed in the regular room. When we got in the room we were really disappointed. It didn't look like a suite at a resort. It looked more like a room in a hotel. Anthony noticed the jacuzzi, which was in the middle of the floor, acting as a divider between livingroom and bedroom was FILTHY. Then he noticed a crack in it. I called the front desk and spoke with our personal concierge. I told him to charge the 20/night to the card and we'd take the upgrade. He said, "we're gonna do something different. We're going to upgrade you at no charge. I'll be right over with your new room number and keys." When we walked into the new room we were amazed. It was sparkling clean. Jacuzzi looked like it was brand new. We also noticed the fireplace was in the bedroom right where you could lie on the bed and admire the fire. Anthony then noticed the POOL! it doesn't end there, I saw a door in the mirrored walls in the pool room and when I opened it, there was a sauna! Yes, we had ourown person pool, sauna and jacuzzi. It was really cool.
The food was awesome too. Hot breakfast in bed when we wanted it, coffee anytime we wanted. Hors d'oeurves and cocktail hours. Great entertainment, amazing staff. Awesome game room. We even went horseback riding on a trail for free! It was simply amazing.
Now we're back to reality and went out to buy the necessities for the apartment. We've spend a LOT of money on stuff. Here's the truth though. I've been feeling really stressed since we got back. I wake up at 730 to get breakfast ready for Anthony and I. We have to leave by 830, which leaves me enough time to eat, get dressed and check my email before work. We don't get home until 630PM and I have to make dinner. By the time we've had anything to eat and I've finished the dishes it's 8PM. Then I have to clean other parts of the apartment...like the windows, bathroom, floors, laundry etc. I try to be in bed by 1030, so it leaves me NO time to have a life. I would really like to work part time, or even just a couple hours less. Anthony and I received a LOT of money from the wedding and we're thinking of using it as a downpayment on a new/used car. We want a malibu maxx, so hopefully we can find a nice one with a monthly payment low enough for us to afford. Once we get another car Anthony can look into other options of work that pay more money. He really loves where he is now, and so do I, but he needs to make more money for me so I can work less hours. Don't get me wrong I do NOT want to stop working. I would just like to shave a couple hours off.
well it's past my bedtime and i need to wake up early tomorrow. So Goodnight.
