I got married last Saturday to the greatest man imaginable. After my divorce in 2002, I swore off men and never thought I'd ever get married again. My first husband died of stomach and colon cancer and my second husband was the biggest jackass imaginable. I've been through a lot and am so happy to find someone who is loving, caring, great with my kids, and non abusive. I love my husband and I know that he loves me too. I deserve to be happy for once.
He proposed to me in October when we were at a wedding in Las Vegas. His mother not only went on the trip with us but also slept in the room with us. OKAY, not the happiest camper but I didn't complain. When he told her that we were getting married she filpped out and started crying. She would whine and cry to anyone who would complain. Apparently before I came along he was paying all of her bills for her even though she is an LPN. She became "ill" and said she could not work as much. :headshake
She went out into the community telling everyone who would listen that he won't do anything for her anymore. Even though he was still paying some of her bills for her. She wanted him to give her a weekly allowance. Seriously. She wants him to pay her bills while she uses the money she makes at work to enable her 27 year old non working son to continue his cocaine habit and pay her other son's child support to keep him out of jail. He does not ever see his children period. Now I might be selfish but he has a family now and we can put our money to much better use. There are things we want to have too. Two weeks before the wedding she started having bad chest pains DAILY and wanted someone with her all the time. :mssmack
Anyhoo, the wedding. We rented 2 cabins for everyone. The wedding party stayed at the cabin with us and the other was for the mils and other friends and family. She complained and acted the fool because she was unable to find her cabin. The directions were very easy. She started crying hysterically because she said she was lost. There were so many places she could have stopped to get directions. We were not in Gatlinburg yet because we didn't leave home until 7 pm. She left at 8 Friday morning. Made it through that nightmare.:sigh
Saturday came and everyone was getting ready for the wedding. We got married in our cabin. Everything was beautiful! She got there 30 minutes before the wedding was supposed to start with faded and dingy clothes on. Everyone else was dressed appropriately but her and she acted like she was really disgusted to be there. She would not take pictures, did not congratulate us after the ceremony and left while we were upstairs taking pictures. She even brought fish to fry for the reception and she knows that Robert is allergic to fish. If he ingests it he STOPS BREATHING. Who wanted to smell fish frying while the wedding was going on anyway? I think she was hoping for him to have a reaction to the fish and end the wedding. She went to the other cabin and we saw her no more for the rest of the weekend. We invited her over for breakfast and she refused. She did almost everything within her power to sabotage our happiness and I want nothing more to do with her EVER. Its sad that she spent such a joyous occasion in misery because she deprived herself of having a good time. She really didn't have to come and the way she acted, I wish she had not. Maybe I am just being petty but she should realy be ashamed of herself. Thanks for listening to me vent. I'm just so bothered that she would put forth such an effort to ruin out happiness.
On a brighter note our wedding was perfect, everything was beautiful, the moon was full, and it snowed Monday while we were leaving. My baby girl had never seen snow before.http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL1388/5700868/12578957/310621950.jpg
