all over the place
by devy

prudie was all over the place this week. a bride has to let go the fact that her mother in law wants to dress like someone who's half her age at her son's wedding. i'm sure the son would be annoyed at the fact, but won't mention it for upseting mom and his fiance even more then they are right now. she shouldn't tell the lady what to wear, but mentioning it to ppl who can would help. NO ONE wants to look ridiculous at a wedding! i don't care how hot you are, unless it's your wedding, a lil bit of modesty is in order! my mom looked fantastic on my wedding day, but she wasn't trying to upstage me. she just looked damn good. but everyone knew that she was the mother of the bride and dressed for the occasion. hell, i want to "borrow" her dress! it was cute! :) there is a way as the mother or mother in law of the bride or groom to dress for your age, the occasion and not feel all stuffy and like you have to dress like a prude in an effort to not upstage the bride. trust me! of course, if the bride calmed down a bit, no one is gonna even think that she's not the queen of the day anways. :p plus, her mother in law will soon feel and see by other's reactions that maybe her choice of dress wasn't the best and learn from this. a copy of the wedding album should REALLY let it sink in! haha! :p

two girls are dating new guys and have situations that they feel should be discussed, but got to different froms of advice. wouldn't the best thing to do be keeping your mouth shut til the relationship progressed to a point that mentioning it would let you know whether or not to break up or keep going? why mention it NOW at all?

why doesn't the girl with the cancer scare actually discuss with her friends what to do with the money they gave her? NO ONE likes ackward situations with money. the BEST thing would be to clear the air outright from the get go.

the families of law enforcement officers always get flack. the best thing to do is, is to smile and say with a wink, "yeah, you might want to stay out of trouble from now on." NOTHING you do can make ppl NOT mad at your loved one for arresting them, suspecting them, stopping them, giving them a ticket, etc. but letting ppl know that it's 1) not your fault they got in trouble and 2) nothing you can do about it, the better off you are. some ppl get it, some don't. just keep doing what you do. you can't please everybody. :p

maybe it's just that it's sunday morning and i had a busy weekend, but prudie this week was just all over the place!
