My dad called me this morning yelling at me about not helping enough with the wedding., and how we shouldn't have come to SC this weekend. Well, we came to SC to pick up my fiance's brother and friend because originally my dad said he would be moving us down here this week, and we promised to bring them up to PA so they wouldn't have to worry about the expense.
He then told me my sister in law (matron of honor) is mad at me from my bridal shower, because I forgot to tell my mother the shower was at our house (which only made sense, because the other option was 45 minutes away, causing all my friends to drive that far. I never even knew she was angry with me.
Then he was complaining about my mom having to clean the house by herself with her rib cracked (1. her house is immaculate, she's just obsessive about it being spotless, 2. he's the one who caused her to crack her rib) and having to get everything ready--even though we told her we'd do it when we got back, with Josh's incredibly kind friend helping us.
Lastly, on top of it all, he says "You're at a crucial point in your life" Yes, I know this.. but he follows it with "Your brother is going to end up dying in the next year and your grandmother isn't doing well" YES! But what can I do about it?? Why are you telling me this when I'm already crying?? So he hung up, called back a few minutes later and is telling me to pull myself together. WHAT DID HE EXPECT???

I can't stand it... So then of course afterwards I ate a piece of triple chocolate cake and half a bag of Doritos... It's no wonder I'm so overweight.

I just want to cry again.

Oh Joy,
I wish I could do something, anything to make you feel better! Weddings are full of stress, especially the week before them. Everything will work out in its own way! and you won't even remember all of this when you look back and think about your wedding day! You will just remember how beautiful you looked and how much you love each other!!!

Try to stay calm and relaxed!!! You don't need to make yourself sick right now! And walk away from the Doritos! You know we love you!
