1395 days agoHusband and I are excited however, he’s telling me that we absolutely have to share it with his family: his parents, brother, sister and his brother in law (and they’re the freeloading, cheapskate type). I don’t mind sharing but this is one thing...

1440 days agoLadies- please fill me in. Educate me or tell me I’m off my rockers. Brief history: my husband’s sister and I never got along. Now that we’re married, she knows how to be civil (sad it how it takes a license for someone to start behaving civilly...

1456 days agoI had a job while I was dating my husband for years. I decided to go back to school. He wanted to get married. I got accepted and got a WONDERFUL opportunity to get my masters degree. It would take 18 months full time. I know this was the only time I...

1458 days agoI was with my husband for 6 years before he proposed and I learned the hard way of how certain clique families work. He comes from a big family where all his cousins, aunts, uncles all live in the same big cul de sac. From an outsider’s POV, you...

1460 days agoI had a Catholic mass, a beautiful cocktail hour on the water and our venue was brand new with a beautiful view. We had our photographer take about 2,000 pictures, so you can imagine how challenging it was to pick! Our photographer doesn’t create...

1468 days agoFirst off- DH and I never expect anything from anyone. We are very generous people, especially with our families. Here’s the situation: we’ve been renting space from my in laws and saving for a house. With Covid, it’s delayed a lot of things,...

1475 days agoLet’s say that if there’s new information I’ve found out or news, HE is the one that will tell everyone about it. For example: me: “oh honey, did you know that ‘onward’ will be streaming on Disney plus right now?” And then I’ll continue on about how...
