sad as it is we fight about where we live, or where we "dont" live i should say. i would rather live near feasterville, south hampton near my family. we now live in jersey, near his family. 20-30 minutes away from my fam. i kow it isnt far but after a ong day of working and its hard. i hate being out of my "element" and that i cant just get up and go to my sisters or moms anymore. he however can walk to his family's and it just bugs me out and i get snippy with him about it. he works for jersey's electric co so its better that he lives in jersey. blah z blah im getting mad thinking aout it hahahahhhahaa

It might get people thinking about why it's a good idea, rather than them thinking "oh she wants us to pay her wedding bills" (which was kinda my first thought before thinking about the memories part) I was thinking if I did do the registry maybe I could come up with something like that, a rhyme of some sort. My fam is SOO layed back and no none of my guests are up tight or old school. And even though its a "traditional" wedding, my fam isn't traditional and don't "do things by the book" or anything like that. We're all very close and I think word would get out that the idea isnt to PAY for my wedding but its actaully a "gift". So I'll have to read over this thread and kinda put things ito perspective. Thanks ladies for your input, you the bestest ;o)

Well I haven't gotten this far yet. But when we do register I am taking a vow that I will NOT peek. I like surprises so I def don't want to look. I obviously will have a small idea of what I might get hence registering for it, but dont want to know for sure. It takes the fun out! hahaah

But what if you only got like $50 towards this photog? Then you are commited to them and they are out of your budget. What would you do then?? ETA: I see now that you never said they were out of your budget, so my comment might not apply, but I guess still something to think about... Well they arent out of our budget, thats not why i'm interested in the registry. They just offer it so I thought why not utilize it. My sister said "If you got that in an invite to a friends shower, what would you think about it?" i said "i wouldnt give a shit, its where they registered..." so she laughed and said well theres your answer. haha but of course im still un sure cause im a freak and "indecisive" is my middle name.

wow i loveee it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how exciting, congrats!!!!

oh so funny. a friend just sent that to me last week. it reminds me of my one flashy tacky friend. love her but shes def tacky. (carly see if u can guess??) hahah

There is one photographer that we are leaning towards. They offer a registry, something that's apparently a "new thing", ?? They have lil cards that can be placed in the shower invites so people know I registered with them. Part of me thinks its great then I think, is it tacky?? Joe seems to think it's great b/c we will have our pix forever and what a great gift, ya know? What do you think?

crest white stripes baby! i used them years ago, they worked and just after i got my braces off used them again. ill never pay for professional whitening.

oh there are so many! one though that sticks out actually wound up being the BEST thing that ever happened to me, and i will tell you why at the end. me and my friend sue went out to tgifridays to eat and have some drinks before we went out for her sisters bday. they had this limo bus, lots of girls etc. so needless to say we got wasted. at the time i was dating this guy (who i thought i was going to marry) and there was this never ending issue with his ugly ex calling and texting him. SO being drunk i decided to call her while we were on the bus. i dont even know why, i just wanted to hear her answer and hang up so i blocked my # and called her... she said hello like 2 times in her valley girl voice and i covered my mouth hysterical laughin cuz i thought it was the funniest thing, then my friend sue yells over to me "HEY JACKEE WHAT ARE U LAUGHING AT, WHOS THAT!!??" so i hung up! here, the girl knew it was me, called my x, he knew it was me but yet didnt tell me for a week about it! all his friends knew but i had NO idea i was even caught until a week later he decided to freak out on me. it turned into this huge mess, he was taking her side, he wanted to take a "break" i was absolutely devastatedddddd, extremely depresssed. that one thing i did while drunk made the next year a living hell for me. ask carly, i lost weight, i was down to 98lbs! hi, im 5'8 almost and normally weigh 130 lbs. it was bad. NOW i see now that it was the best thing that i ever did b/c i would have never met joe!! i woulda prob still been wasting time with my x with that duche nozzle in my relationship too. ahhhhhh me and sue still laugh about that night, we love talking about it. another time is i went to my friend tina's bach party in ac. wastedddd. my sis drove home and i puked most of the way home. she had to pull over like 5 times, i puked in her car, it was a mess and i had to clean her car the next day it was SOO gross cuz we ate at carmines and - just trust me, it was nasty. ;o) goodness i have so many stories i wanna share but those two are fine ;o) hahahahahah

Well I'm not good with words but all I can suggest is to try and remain calm. Obviously this is putting stress on your poor body. BTW- I'm sorry you had miscarriage. If you didnt already, call the hotel and WC and get it straightened out asap. What a pain in the a**. Its sux you lost your job too ( But everything will work itself out- trust me, it always does. I know you love your X-MOH but I would give her a fricken earful!!!! She cant go, fine but why the email? Why the lame excuses? Why cant she go without her a**hole hubby? You def need to talk it over with her and let her know your feelings. And i she cant go she can still take on roles of MOH and help you since things arent going so smoothly right now. WTF! Sorry again that times are tuff right now, when it rains it pours huh?? But dont worry doll, it will all work out...it always does. You have to stay positive. Its all you can do. Tackle one thing at a time, and remain positive.

Your friend (and you too!) are in my thoughts. How old is she? I am a pharmacist in an oncology clinic and it is so amazing to me the number of young women that we see in the clinic for chemo. I know it is UNREAL how many young girls are more at risk these days. She is only 27. I call her my "lil baby" cuz shes the youngest of my friends. She doesnt tan, or anything like that either. The first time they found the tumor, it ws sdue to a mole she wanted removed "just because", they sent it away and here it was cancer. Thank GOD she wanted it removed. I also have a friend who is now 31, who had her breast removed when she was 30. It runs chills up my arms.

words cant express how sorry i am...my heart goes out to you. i'm sure shes a lovely woman and way to good a person to be taken away ( i hope she pulls through...you're in my prayers.

Quote: Originally Posted by ErinB I don't have personal experience with this, but have done quite a bit of cancer research. (I volunteer for an ovarian cancer group). I checked a few online resources where we refer people, and the general concensus was that is doesn't mean cancer. Most physicans will send you immediately for a biopsy, just to be sure. Often times it is a ductal papilloma, which is benign. Either way, she should get checked out ASAP and try not to worry too much. Even if it is cancer, if there are no detectable lumps in the breast, it means she caught it early. I'll be keeping her in my thoughts! yes exactly, she said she dont feel any lumps but was just nervous b/c she has it before in her arm. thanks!!! hopefully it isnt that disgusting disease.

The observation that the blood is coming from just one duct is against fibrocystic change and is associated about 9 times out of 10 with a benign intraductal papilloma and about one time out of 10 with an intraductal carcinoma. Be sure to have it checked out. The odds are way in favor of being a benign process but even with the small chance of malignancy, if treated early it is entirely curable" I hope your friend is ok, Keep us updated! thanks!!! i will!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello all. Sad topic but I have to ask, maybe someone knows aout it. I have a friend who woke up one morning with blood coming out of her left niple. Her shirt was stuck to her and she thought she was cut, but wasnt. So she went to docs and I they did test, etc and her results wont be back until Fri. They said it could be breast cancer. 3 years ago she had a baseball size tumor removed from the back of her left arm, so we thought maybe it spread to her left boob, ?.. IF cancer is what it is. Does anyone know if that ihappens to women when they get breat cancer? I never heard that before. Normally al I hear about are tumors.

thats gr8! congrats and lots of luck!

LOVE the name stella. its about time someone named their kid a pretty name. happy for them yay.

I CAN NOT tell you how much I love your pix. You looked stunning, your dress is breathtaking, EVERYTHING looked so wonderful!
