The Latest Edition of Jennifer's Drama

Allright, I've had my breather. I'm ready.

My wedding is back on but not for the originally planned date. We have officially rescheduled for March 20, 2009. Anyone who has a Save-the-Date card from me, throw it away. There were many issues in our relationship that both of us were trying to ignore but somehow, they were still coming up. You know, Denial is not a river in Egypt....

A factor in our postponement is finances. It's actually one of the biggest ones. It was almost 2 months to the wedding and we still hadn't bought half of the things needed. So pushing it back another 6 months will allow us more breathing room in this department. Our two other main issues relationship-wise are trust and control. Crazy how those go hand-in-hand. We're working on those right now also. I'd appreciate prayers, encouragement, helpful hints, or whatever else positive tid-bits that could help us from y'all. I also want to say Thank You to everyone while I was going through another bout of drama. But I mean, it's me. What else do you expect?

Oh, and I mention the person(s) once again who left me groceries in my kitchen (also known as Breaking & Entering, but I won't tell anyone). I don't think they got proper recognition when I blogged about it the first time because right after that I dropped a bomb shell on everyone. So, anyway, shout out to whoever you are!!

I pray that this next 6 months fly by and that you guys grow closer to God and closer together. It's going to be great!

Thanks for being so honest and sharing with us. Unfortunately it does seem that trust and control do go hand in hand and in our relationship I was the one with that problem. Basically, if I couldn't control Doug then I felt I couldn't trust him. Crazy huh? Probably my DC personality! Anyway, God went to work on me immediately (an it wasn't a pretty sight) but I am so thankful He cared enough about me to see me through my insecurities.

Know you are in my prayers and I am glad the wedding is still on. After all,I'm all about weddings.

I can't even imagine how hard it would be to go from doing whatever you want to having to submit to someone. I know in your heart, you want to submit to Tony and be the good wife that is in you. You were made to be the perfect wife! I also know how hard this is for you right now. I'm really glad ya'll are working things out! Maybe you and Tony could look into going to a marriage seminar some where close by. It could be like a little weekend get-a-way for ya'll.

Hey, are you sure Denial is not a river in Egypt?

*I've already talked to you about the rest so no comment necessary*

I had fun with you last night.

GIRL I UNDERSTAND ALL ABOUT THE PRE-MARITAL STUFF. BEEN THERE DONE THAT JUST RECENTLY. LOL
I DO HAVE TO PUT IN A PLUG HERE. DAVID GARCIA(MY EX BROTHER-IN-LAW) HAD GIVEN ME A DVD SET OF JIMMY EVANS ON MARRIAGE.
SO JAMES AND I USED IT FOR OUR PRE-MARITAL COUNSELING. IT WAS AWESOME. WE WOULD WATCH IT EVERY SATURDAY TOGETHER AND THEN DISCUSS IT.
IT HELPS US TALK ABOUT SOME VERY TOUGH ISSUES. YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO BORROW IT IF YOU WOULD LIKE. LET ME KNOW AND I WILL GET IT TO YOU SOME SUNDAY MORNING.

Thank you for your honesty that is so refreshing... You have grown so much. I beleive that though all of this you guys will have an even stronger relationship.

Sometimes things are tough and rough but God is always there to shine it up and make it better.

Love you guys...

OK, so it's been almost a month now since you posted this. Can we get something new up on here? I'm just saying...
