ornaments
Saturday, September 12, 2009 | By ninamccampbell

I have a seperate little tree I call my "Jekyll" tree. When I go to the beach, I find unsual shells that I can hang on my little tree, without frilly ribbons. I hot glue a loop of fishing string on them, then a big conch shell on top. I also pick up an ornament of light houses from our visits. It's a special tree, to remind me of the ocean!

I too like the style you describe, but am struck by LAZY. When I look at your closet, I think of some louvered doors I got on 2good2toss, craigs list might be another source. They were dirt cheap, and with some glam paint and hinges would either A. make doors disguising your closet, or B make a glamorous screen, something that you could do with some 2x1" pieces of wood and lovely fabric that you adore anyway! Good luck, looking forward to the finished product! :)

You did a gorgeous job! You should be very proud of yourself, if you hadn't shared, I'd have never known it wasn't a professional job! :)

It can be done. I went to Florida for about 10 days and only spent about $300 including gas money back and forth to Michigan. I really did well luckily it was so hot I didn't want to eat - lol!

The best thing I found out is most places in Florida will give you a discount if you ask about a AAA discount, most of the time I didn't even have to show my card and I got it!

Ok, ten years from now...You are his wife and you have kids by him, both girls. Do you want them to think it is ok for someone other than themselves (notice I did not say "a man") to tell them what is acceptable behaviour? Isnt that up to one's own self to figure out? Talking to another man is not cheating. Even hugging and flirting is not cheating. Someone who is that jealous does not care about your feelings, and is VERY AFRAID that you will find out just what a heal he really is. He simply cannot trust you, and it IS a matter of trust. He is VERY insecure. And what is he going to do if you DO talk with some man? What if some other man talks to you? What does he expect you to do? Do you feel like you will be in trouble if approached by a male friend? If so, you are in trouble! Trust me, I know what I am talking about.

I marrried a very jealous man. Stayed married for ten years. He isolated me to the point that I was not even allowed to have female friends! God forbid I should glance at another man! It ended the night he choked me because I asked for a divorce and he couldnt stand the thought of me with someone else. I have a daughter. I got out when she was 6, but spent the rest of the time teaching her that SHE sets those rules, not someone else. And not to accept someone elses perameters about behaviour. My daughter is 21 now and in a loving relationship. I am remarrying after finally finding someone who accepts me for who I am. The last poster is right. Concentrate on who you are and what you want out of life. If you ever want ANY friends, and the freedom to choose who they are, this man is not for you. Get out while you can.

Ask yourself one more thing....Can he talk to other females? Or is this rule just for him?

But I would worry more about that indian if I were you!

You would be very surprised what you can find at the GoodWill or at a resale thrift shop. This way you can get a $10-50 dress that you can "bloody" up when you kill or be killed! Start looking around at these places for props and decorations too. I am sure you will have a "ball"!

It is nice ot be reassured. I have told some who just stare, as if "you have to be kidding!". Most applaud me, but it is those who snicker that need a reality check. Anyways, you are correct. It is one day. I plan on wearing the dress the whole day, even at the reception and I will not worry about stains or anything else! And my two weeks in Florida for the honeymoon will be frugal, but fun! Thanks again!

DingyBat!

Smart Fiancee, don't worry everything will look great and you will be heraled as frugal queen. I'm sure everything will be beautiful. A wedding is just one day, don't waste money on that! You ARE NOT TOO CHEAP

you could start by parking your car at the back of the parking lot when you go grocery shopping and taking the stairs next time you have to take an elevator and ride your bike when you have to do errands that are not far from your home instead of driving the car..mowing the lawn..and vigorusly clean your house 3 times a week will help burn calories and wont seem like exercise,,thats what i do to loose weight
