Activity for Christine

I'm lying in bed next to sleeping FH. I can't sleep! It's been days of moving out of our old place, prepping and setting up. Totally not feeling great from being dehydrated today and very little food. I think I'm gonna have to tape my eyelids...

So we moved 9 months ago for me to take this new job, which came with a temporary apartment on site. The job is terrible. FH and I dragged our feet on finding our own place because I was so unsettled. So I said to FH we had to make a choice - find a...

I found a student place for myself, MIL and MOB, because I was trying to cut costs where i could, and they came recommended. It was *AWFUL*. I went there in such a positive mood, having just finished our first two facials ever. And I left with tears...

Curious what type of wedding everyone is having? Formal, casual, indoor/outdoor, small, large? Share! Mine will be indoor and outdoors at one location for ceremony and reception, at a barn. About 100 guests. Rustic, diy, casual, offbeat, bbq, wine,...

Ok I am really computer literate, but I do find this site difficult to navigate. The changing of avatars is more difficult than it should be. But somehow in futzing around with my display name, and then changing it back, I've made my wedding date...

Think I probably have a good idea of how this goes over on WW. But I'm curious what the world thinks of say a "first-two-hours open bar, cash bar after that"? I've been to one wedding personally that did this; and when I DJ'd way back in college...

Ok so I'm jumping in completely clueless as to what shit went down, and just am putting together assumptions based on the remaining thread. But just to throw words of wisdom in.... Hah -- I'm the first person to vent and probably say shit to an...

Anyone besides me not having any rehearsal at all? What is your plan?

I'm SERIOUSLY considering crafting and selling wedding stationery. I made our STD's, invitations, and am currently making program "fans". I'm quite happy with how they all turned out (although I'm a "seat of the pants" kind of girl, so they don't...

Ok serious inquiry because I do not know what to do. My FH is a professional musician. We're WELL aware of going rates. But we wound up in a jam down to the wire due to FH's need to find just the right band. I found someone we're thrilled to have,...

I need to get event insurance (and after my last post, I'm kinda glad!) Has anyone bargain shopped for the cheapest out there? For a wedding of 92 with open bar, WedSafe quoted me $185, which just seems like a lot of cash to throw away for...

OMG meltdown time. Today we went for the marriage license. We're temporarily living out of state, fought rush-hour traffic to get to the appointment, only to find that the computers had a power surge during last night's storm, and they couldn't do...

No bridal party here. But I asked my brother to escort my mother down the aisle in his Air Force dress blues. My nephew will be escorting our dog, the "Ring Dog". For the programs that I'm currently working on, this suddenly dawned on me as a title...
