    I need some help from you ladies here.

    While I am pretty computer savvy being in IT and computer instructor I am at a loss at some of the abbreviations used here.  Is there a list of them somewhere {like the emoticons list) that will get me up to snuff.

    I was trying to muddle my way through and figure them out as I went along but when I read about about "Sharing your STD's"....I KNEW I better ask because I just could not see how that could possibly be a good thing....and especially in public! I need to get with the times in more ways than one I see. LOL

     If there is NOT a list maybe we can start a post sharing them?

    Thanks for any help you can give this "newbie"!

    @LovingMom- LOL. . . . .i laughed so hard when i read your post. . . i'll admit "Sharing your STD's" sounds dirty, hahha. STD stands for Save The Date, i know there is a post around here somewhere that says what the abbreviations stand for but i cant seem to find it at the moment

    Sara,

    Thank you for helping in my enlightenment.

    I knew when I read about Do it yourself STD's the time had come to take action!

    I am glad to be able to bring a smile to your face.abbreviations used here - HELP! :  wedding Icon Biggrin

    I feel so sorry for the girls here under so much stress.  it should be such a wonderful , happy time of their lives and they are psending it stressing.

    I wonder how much of it has to do with all the reality shows on monster Brides, perfect weddings, etc.  Maybe because the Internet gives us a chance to see what other brides are stressing about so we think.."OMG I should be stressing because I did not know there was So muchg to stress about!"

    I would be a  basket case. LOL

    I just hope all of you have beautiful wonderful weddings and look back  years later and laugh at the things that were problems today.

    lovingMom... you are so sweet! If you are a "MOB" feel free to ask your questions too, I know my mom is full of them!

    Also, I'm glad some of you posted that link, I kept wondering why everyone was typing FI not FH as they do on some other boards and was too timid to ask, now I am in the loop!
