It's Friday!

I'm being a spoiled baby because I had all last week off and Monday was a holiday because of Thanksgiving, but this week was SO long.  And, to top it off, my flat iron died this morning.  So I look and feel like shit.

Anywho... What are you up to this weekend?

Tonight: I guess I'm going out the buy a flat iron.  And then we're going dig out the Halloween decor and see what we have/need.

Tomorrow: Brunch with friends and then dinner with other friends.  Our cups really do runeth over in the friends department :)

Sunday: A quick trip to Ogdensburg, NY with my parents to look at fabric.  My mom's going to help me recover our patio chair cushions.

Re: It's Friday!

  • @nfp147 RIP to the flat iron. Tragic! LOL... I'd feel that way if my blow dryer went out! Like seriously, I'd cry lol.

    Tonight: taking the mini-me to dinner with the future DH.

    Tomorrow: CAKE TASTING!!! We already know what flavors of cake we want, but it's a free tasting, and who says no to cake???
    Then LSU plays Ole Miss, so we will be watching that game. Go to hell, Ole Miss!!!

    Sunday: Our engagement party!!! Woop!!!!

  • Sorry about your flat iron nfp! That's the worst!

    I have a ridiculously long day ahead of me, with work and then heading straight from my train to 5 1/2 hours of promoting Malibu (yippee). I'm not getting home until about midnight.

    The rest of the weekend is entirely up in the air. DH bought a couple of jigsaw puzzles last week. He's almost finished with his WWII aircraft puzzle, so maybe we'll start on the 2000-piece one! Yipes!

  • My flat iron is like my morning coffee! I am so sorry yours died!

    Last night DH started putting in our california closets so tonight I will be organizing my new closet.
    Tomorrow: We have a contractor at the house again doing the siding and some little things inside. I might run out and do a little shoe shopping, all of my shoes SUCK and are like 6+ years old.
    Sunday: We are going to my home town for a huge festival in the town. My sister and nephew are coming down from ME to NY for it and we go every year. I'm super excited for all the live music, fried dough, carnival rides, and shopping!

  • Tonight: date night with DH
    Tomorrow: working out in the morning, and football all day. At night, we have a church meeting. DH doesn't want to go because it's really about a candidate that they are interviewing for the children's minister, and "we don't have kids." I want to go because I'm nosey, and we will hopefully have kids soon.
    Sunday: start packing for Hawaii, and running last minute errands. I'm hoping all my shorts fit since they were tight a few weeks ago.

  • Sorry to hear about your flat iron.

    This weekend is absolutely nothing!!! H heads to Vegas this afternoon, so I have the entire house to myself.

    I'm thinking tonight I will stop at an estate sale on my way home from work, and then stop out at the farm to ride in the combine with my brother.

    Tomorrow I'm hoping to do some lesson planning for Sunday school, then possibly organize my office and move things out of our spare bedroom.

    Hopefully that doesn't take me too long, because I want to scrapbook and watch some Harry Potter movies, but that can wait till Sunday.

    edited October 2013

    This morning I had my 'lack of menses evaluation' which was quick but the ultrasound actually was really uncomfortable which I was surprised about, I've never had that issue before.  They couldn't get a good picture of my ovaries so there was all kinds of hard pressing and pressure going on.

    I only work a half day on Fridays so once I get off at 1 I am meeting a friend and her 20 month old for lunch, then I have the afternoon/evening free so I'll probably do a little shopping and I'm thinking about stopping by my friends bar to hang out and have a couple of drinks with her later tonight.

    As for the rest of the weekend we have zero plans which I'm excited about.  We might go to the pumpkin patch and we might hang out with my Dad, but nothing is set in stone.

  • @nfp147sorry about your flat iron; what a shitty way to start your day!

    @katieg520 - enjoy your tasting and, more importantly, your engagement party!!!

    Tonight DH, SS, and I will be driving to NJ. Tomorrow is my best friend's baby shower. Most of you know how I feel about this already.  I'm a giant mix of emotions about it. Sunday we'll all be walking with my mom at the ACS breast cancer walk. Her company is a corporate sponsor and her team alone has raised almost $5,000, which is half of what the entire company has raised so far. I'm so proud of her and her creative fundraising ideas!

    Also, DH and I will have to find some time to DTD at my parents' house (nothing I haven't done before, but now I'm a guest so it feels wrong lol)... According to my monitor, I started O'ing this morning (or sometime after yesterday morning). It's only CD 10, which is way early for me. Tuesday (CD 14) would've been way more convenient... thanks, body!

    We're probably going to do groceries and some cleaning this weekend, and then on Sunday we both work for a bit. Maybe I'll add some wine to the grocery list so I can entertain myself one of these nights.

    We already know we are doing red velvet on two layers bc that is my absolute favorite. The other two layers will be Jesse's favorite - white almond wedding cake. So it's pretty much a cake tasting just to get free cake, lol. We are tasting some kind of strawberry something and some other grand marnier liquor one.... Along with red velvet and white wedding cake, lol.
