Dont Even Call Me A Daddys Girl

Oct 21, 2005 15:07

I fell apart yesterday. I left campus early because I couldnt stand being there anymore. I called Treys shop & talked to his dad for a bit because apparently he wasnt there. His dad told me it seems like Trey is never at the shop anymore. I panicked cause I thought he meant that like Trey wasnt showing up for work at all. I called my dad & told him I finished early, so we met up at the McDonalds like we normally do. I told my dad that Trey & I want to move again because we dont like the neighborhood were in & we have found that living on our own, we cant save up the money for the wedding. He flipped when he found out im trying to save $4000 for the wedding. He said that way too much & none of us can afford it so he cant help me pay for a $4000 wedding (even though my grandmother left him $60,000 to help me out.) I was pissed & extremely hurt so the ride home was rather uncomfortable. I got home & threw myself on our bed & just started bawling (which I seem to do alot of lately). I told Trey what my dad said & what his dad said. He told me that his dad meant that he has been taking off alot lately because of all of us being sick & because we had things to get done, but no, he hasnt been skipping out on work. He told me he will work his fingers to the bone if he has to, just so long as I get the wedding that I deserve. Hes so sweet. Sure enough, we were up by 8:30 this morning & he was out the door by 9.

$4000 for a wedding is damn good. Yes, we shouldnt have rented The Greenbranch, but I thought it was perfect & it cuts down on decoration costs because the place is just breathtaking. Trey & I sat down yesterday & cut down the budget even more & now we have a goal of saving $3000. We arent having some extravegant gala, were just having a simple, down home wedding. If we cut the budget anymore than im sorry to say folks, their wont be a wedding. If my family continues to not help me, they may not find an invitation in their mailbox. I think the parents of both the bride & groom should help out as much as they possibly can & should want to see the couple happy & being able to have the wedding of their dreams. I plan to save for my little girls wedding if I have a girl later on.

So far ive gotten the go ahead from everyone to sub-let the duplex. We're thinking we may move back to Willow Oaks, but were not for sure yet. Im just curious, if I buy stuff for the centerpieces & I buy the tableclothes that I want...what am I suppose to do with all this crap after the wedding?
