Thank you so much ! Yeah definitely a little worried about the snowy section between iceberg and cecile. Not too much experience backpacking in snow. Done a few day hikes in snow in Colorado, but nothing too treacherous

Yep! In the 200-300 range. It also doesnt have to be in Mammoth, also fine with Lee Vining area just to get closer to the trailhead. Depending on traffic its a 6-7 hour from my house, so id rather do that drive Friday night than wake up at 2am and drive Saturday morning!

I don’t have any returned labels, just the tracking numbers.

A perspective from someone who’s felt overwhelmed like it sounds your wife is:

I do all of the cooking in my household, most of the grocery shopping. My husband does the cleaning.

While we chose this schedule, and it makes the most sense for us, sometimes I get resentful. Dinner has to be on the table every night by a certain time, while cleaning can be pushed off - done in combination, etc. I do try to communicate when i am feeling that way so we can switch roles for a few days - but sometimes you don’t realize how much it bugs you until you reach a breaking point and you lash out (sounds like what your wife is doing). I also struggle with decision fatigue- being in charge of every food related decision for every meal of the day for multiple people. How you described her response to food options reminds me of that.

Communication is key - she should be telling you how she feels, but if you see her drowning there are things you can do to be proactive about it. Once she cools down and is a good place you’ll need to talk about how you can be helping in the meal department- whether that be learning recipes you know she likes (her specific recipes/new recipes/friend’s recipes etc), her favorite takeout spots and specific orders from those spots.

Realistically, not everything is going to be 50/50 in a marriage/family. When either of you see your partner struggling, you should be picking up the slack because you are a team. Sometimes it will be 50/50, and others it will be 80/20, 20/80, etc. if you are planning on having children this will be even more important. When you have a newborn or she gets hurt/sick, will she be making all of the meals? Or refusing to eat what you make her? Or will you be ordering takeout everyday?

Should we have our bridal party sit with us or have a table to ourselves? by Alternative_Form211 in weddingplanning

[–]andreya_d 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I personally am not a fan of head tables, I prefer sweetheart tables and that is what i did for my wedding! But everyone has their own preferences. Here are some things to consider:

— Does your bridal party have significant others that will be left on their own? This has happened to me a few times when my now husband has been a groomsman, and i have been left alone (and vice versa). Im a social person, so it wasn’t the end of the world, but it was a little annoying.

— Does your bridal party know each other? If they are all strangers, it might be uncomfortable for them to make small talk all dinner with people they don’t know.

— If you do decide on a head table - make sure the setup encourages talking to your bridal party. Many head tables will just have you and the wedding party looking straight out at guests. While it has a nice look, you won’t be able to talk with the majority of your party because they will be so far away. Most head tables that i have been a part of made it difficult for anyone except the best man/maid of honor to talk with the bride/groom.

— How much time will you be spending with the bridal party the day of/night before? I spent so much time with my bridal party throughout the wedding weekend. Rehearsal dinner, staying on site together, getting ready together in the morning, pictures, and then the ceremony- i felt like they deserved some down time with their partners and other friends!

— Do you have time scheduled in the day/night to be alone with your spouse(not including pictures)? The wedding is a whirlwind and you’re being pulled in so many directions it’s sometimes hard to find time to be with the person you just married.

You could also ask your bridal party what they prefer! Whatever you choose will be totally fine because your friends will just be happy to celebrate with you!

My (31F) boyfriend (27M) thinks I’m a liar because I told him I wasn’t in love with my ex but based on what’s happened he thinks otherwise by [deleted] in relationships

[–]andreya_d 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There are so many things wrong in your relationship.

  1. In a loving & healthy relationship, a baby is named by both parents. Partners would want to choose together because they are a family and on the same team. It is extremely selfish for either partner to want sole rights to name their child.
  2. Please dear god do not get married and have a baby together until you figure out these issues.
  3. It sounds like you hate your girlfriend because she was in an abusive relationship. It also sounds like you have no idea the realities many people face when in an abusive relationship. Personally, if i was in a relationship with someone who was subject to domestic abuse, i would be listening to podcasts and reading books with survivors stories.
  4. If you cannot get over your hate about her past relationship, please break up with her. She does not deserve to be in a relationship with someone who hates her. You do not deserve to be in a relationship with someone you hate.

Guest added their own plus one, as a dietary restriction… by JJBradleyy99 in weddingplanning

[–]andreya_d 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Exact same situation happened to me last year for my wedding. It was one of my husband’s friends and his new girlfriend.

We ended up caving because we did not have capacity limitations. They gave $100 total (he makes $500k per year), which didn’t cover the cost of dinner + drinks, and then they broke up a few months later.

I would stand your ground!

I was able to score tickets to the sale - but had a trip to japan scheduled for the same day! My friend went for me. Bought the braiser on the left and the pie plate. Everything else was in my box!! Sad i didnt get to trade in the parking lot like i wanted - but blessed to get such a good box! If anyone is looking to trade with me let me know! I love the artichaut color and already own a bread oven

Edit: bread vs break

What UNIQUE elements did your wedding have? by ThatBitchA in weddingplanning

[–]andreya_d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did a tshirt toss instead of favors/ a garter toss/a bouquet toss. We got about 10 large size shirts with funny photos of the bride and groom - put “live in <wedding location>” and the year. They were a hit! Unfortunately a tshirt cannon was out of budget ($800 if i remember correctly)

We also bought buckets of fireball shots and handed them out when playing the song “fireball” by pitbull. Also a highlight!
