Looks great! I love the raffia!

I heard almost all of it, except the very end. Ralph was driving me crazy! He's so annoying! He kept mocking Ray and Ben and speaking over everyone. I cannot believe he is Howard's best friend! It was such an interesting group and I wanted to hear from them all. Ralph's an asshole.

Good job! I got to 33 of each last night and then rested. I started back up again at 33 and went to 50. I'm going to try to remember to do these every night!

I tend to agree with the others. I would skip your next shot to give your body enough time to get rid of what may be stored in your system. If it's only for a few months, I would just use condoms. Good luck!

I was thinking the same thing about having a thread for this after reading your story in the book post!! FI & I started dating in high school. We fell asleep on the couch watching a movie one night and woke up nose to nose. We started kissing and I knew right away he was something extra special. A while later we were driving to my house and he kept saying "I really really like you!". It wasn't in an i'm trying to tell you something way. It was him realizing it as the words were coming out of his mouth. It was so sweet, special, and perfect for a couple of teenagers falling in love!

They look great! Where did you get the luggage tags? I bought self-laminating ones but I am starting to re-think the purchase.

It also said it's harder to figure out when you have felt so loved for several years or haven't felt loved. I found it easier to think about bad relationships & what was missing for me to not feel loved. It usually comes down to acts of service. The day I told mike i loved him, i felt so loved because he had carried this huge box of tshirts for me to campus. It was a really huge & heavy box and it was raining. I remember thinking how wonderful it was to have someone help me. It felt better than anything someone could have said to me or given me. That's such a sweet story Morgan! FI and I were driving to my house one day and he kept saying "I really really like you!" I knew we were falling in love and it was the greatest feeling! I would say that I am Words of Affirmation and he is Physical Touch. After reading through this a lot of things in our relationship seem clearer. Sometimes when I randomly lay down next to him to cuddle he just melts. I'm not much of a cuddler and I think this is his way of feeling my love. Very interesting!

What a fun night! I love the bride shirt ! We've always wanted to try Melting Pot, it sounds yummy!

Steamy! He's gonna love them!

Although I agree with everyone else that you shouldn't have to give up your kitty, if your FI is going to continue to treat the cat this badly, it would probably be better off in a loving home. Not a good sign the cat is happy if it's living in your basement. Make sure if you put an ad anywhere, you don't list it as "free" or "free to good home". I had to give up my bunnies a long time ago and was told by the humane society to never do that. You want someone to adopt them that cares enough to pay. I also think regardless of what you decide to do, your FI needs a large kick in the ass! This is not how you treat animals, the woman you love, or handle a situation you don't agree with. He knows you want kids and is holding it over your head. Sounds like he has control issues. Don't start off a marriage like that. He needs to understand how to respect you and animals. Sorry you are going through this. I can tell how much you love your kitty. Your kitty needs you to be it's voice and stick up for it. When you adopt an animal that's the responsibility you take. Good luck.

Very beautiful!

Congratulations! Can't wait to see pics of your beautiful day!

Great job!!!

FI & I have been talking about what to tip our WC. We are getting married while in port in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. Our WC has been great with communication and answers all of our questions promptly. I really like her and want to make sure her tip is at the very least fair plus a little extra. Cruise WC's are so different than other WCs. We will be at the resort for such a little amount of time and she didn't have to organize a reception/dinner for our group. She's doing the flowers, cake, champage, and ceremony. Any thoughts on an appropriate tip for a cruise WC? THANKS for your input!

Last night I did my to do list and it was so overwhelming! I used Excel and it's 32 lines long

Everything looks wonderful Tara! I LOVE your dress and hair inspiration picture!

Have a great trip and wedding!

Thanks for sharing! Great pics!

I've had a flirtini and they are sooooo good! It's vodka, champagne, and pineapple juice.

Happy wedding day Yari!!! I can't wait to see your pictures and hear all about it!

Sounds adorable! I brought the same Nicole Ritchie picture with me to my last appointment but chickened out. Maybe after the wedding. How about a self portrait?

I love vodka pineapple with a shot of grenadine!
