Exhausted, what are your plans?
J and I were talking about we've been completely wiped out this week and trying to figure out why. We've worked less hours than we usually does, but we've been dying for the weekend since monday. And then it hit us that is the first weekend where one us doesn't have to work or travel in 6 weeks.
Yep, that would do it.
I think our plans are mainly just to be outside. It's supposed to hit 50 this weekend and be sunny. Usually around this time of year we go to the Botanical garden every weekend and desperately search for signs for spring.
Oh and I guess the Oscars. I'm not too into it, but J likes to watch and I do like pretty dresses. I found a game of Oscar bingo I may print out and play to keep myself entertained.
Re: Exhausted, what are your plans?
To avoid MIL at all costs. Also pray to God this sit down doesn't even happen because I just want a quiet weekend. M has his first day off on Sunday in, like, a month or so, so I really just want the day to be about him and I.
God give me strength.
Apparently some of my time is devoted to help my brother move. Unorganize the unorganized mess to move him in my house and try to find some peace and tranquility in the mean time.
I'd like to get out and at least clean the yard up some. Hopefully finish out storage shed. Finish unpacking......
Maybe squeeze in a margarita night.
We're cleaning out the to-be nursery. It is currently the office/guest room/junk room!
We are also planning on getting the little dogs out of the house and out for a walk b/c the streets & sidewalks aren't as much of an icy mine-field now.
TTC #1 13 cycles, CP 6/09, TTC #2 1 cycle
CDing, EP'd for 13 months for #1, BFing for #2
Pregnancy Hypertension - inductions at 39w, I grow big babies: DD was 9 pounds 1 ounce 22 inches, DS was 11 pounds even 22 inches - both vaginal deliveries
We have to go get supplies tonight for our upcoming event. Then we are roasting coffee like crazy.
Saturday will be more roasting and setting up a mock booth to pratice.
Sunday is our big event. Our 1st event for the company. We're really excited and are hoping it goes well. We'll probably hangout with friends afterward.
I'm hoping we can take a little personal time at some point and go see Alice in Wonderland. If not, then that's definitely something we're doing next week!
TGI MOTHEREFFING F!!!!!!!
Seriously. These past two weeks have been sooooo ridiculously busy that I just want to throw myself on the floor and kick and scream like a 4 year old!
Lets see....today I had to drive 20 miles in the wrong direction, work needed me to pick something up in the GHETTO! So I got to come into work like an hour late. Its going to be insane around here, the boss is having hardwood floors put in his office (explain to me why no one got xmas bonuses again???) THEN tonihgt DH's fam is coming over for dinner. HIs cousin and her fam is in town, should be fun. But that means I need to rush home, clean and make dinner!
Tomorrow I am hanging out withthe fam again, hoping to hit up a craft street fair, then lunch at the Wrigley Mansion, then a bachelortte party.
Sunday if I am not to hung over a GTG with some old knotties, then its ladmo's first day of going BACK to puppy school, since he failed it so badly the first time.
I need a weekend from my weekend
Saturday day Hubby and I are helping his sis and BIL pack up there house this weekend. They are putting it up on the market and need to but a BUNCH of stuff in storage. . .and BIL did something to his back so now he can't help pack at all and they need to finish by this weekend. . .ugh, I hate packing.
Saturday night hubby and I are taking my dad to a hockey game! Woohoo! Go Sharks!
Sunday, no plans. I need to go pick up a book I ordered from a bookstore in another town but other than that. . .nada.
Tonight I am hoping to do a date night with hubs. We haven't had a whole lot of time to connect lately.
Tomorrow I have grad school class
Then home to nap and clean
Sunday probably finish cleaning and laundry and then we are doing dinner with FIL and SMIL
Tonight = Knott's Berry Farm with the school club that N is involved in
Tomorrow = Baby shower in the afternoon, SoCal Novembie BBQ in the evening!
Sunday = catching up on cleaning, starting to pack, dinner and Oscar watching with my little sis.
A fun, but crazy weekend! We took the day off of work yesterday, and spent it at Disneyland with one of my best friends and her 2 little boys. I'm flippin' exhausted, but we had a great time!
Jealous!
Tonight: zzzzzzzzzz
Tomorrow: zzzzzzzzzzz, but an evening Mexican Fiesta with Dana, Patty, Me, Jenny, Katie, Bebe and Scarlett @ Katie's. Margaritas will be involved! I heard rumored Margarita cupcakes, too! I think N is coming, too... Maybe I can convince J. And Dana, if your DH was there, J would have come for sure because he has a million wrestling questions!
Sunday: Supposedly heading to Oceanside to sign some property paperwork with my sisters. Haven't heard back. We were able to sell my dad's land to a neighbor for a good price. They want to prevent anyone from building on the mountaintop, so I'm very happy this has worked out.
I am so jealous of the Mexican Fiesta CA girls! SO jealous!
We have a baby shower tomorrow, then on Sunday my parents are coming up to visit and bring our new Britax carseat...(Hunter's big boy seat)!
Today - took a half day off work. Packing up the office and getting our weekend stuff into my Blazer, picking up the Uhaul, then driving to Denver tonight.
Tomorrow - baby shower from hell. The 20-something other hostess broke up with her live-in boyfriend and it apparently an emotional wreck. Momma to be told me that hostess's mom is coming over to clean the house before the shower. I still need to get baby sock corsages made and re-build the top 3 layers of the diaper cake that my mother destroyed getting it to her house.
Tomorrow night - drive back here. With any luck Redneck and his buddies will have the entire thing packed up by the time we get back. We're staying at a hotel overnight.
Sunday - unpack at the new house and finish cleaning this one. There seriously is not enough time in this weekend.
Saturday we're going to a golf tournament (I bought DH the tix for Christmas).
Sunday DH and my BFF's DH are going to the tournament. BFF and their 2 girls and I are having a girls' afternoon. Yay!
am exhausted NOW...
Went to Phila Flower Show... ALL of my sisters were there-how funny! BUT... the 1 1/2hr ride took 3 hrs to get home... ugh! Then, took SD w me to Lowe's to look at a washer... I'm confused...
Sat-work out. maybe go to HD or Sears. to look... again. Take SD to bday party,,, take all of us to MIL and visit w her, SIL and her family...
Sun-workout. Hopefully, pick a washer if not done already. make Mexican tortilla soup... clean something? Hopefully the workout is OUTSIDE!!! looking forward to the weather!!!
Today - Worked, and now I'm heading over to my mom's to catch dinner and maybe a movie with her. Both of our hubbie's are gone this weekend! : (
Tomorrow - Work and then heading down to Katie's for the SoCal Novembie BBQ! : ) And Aria, I so wish that M was home so he could come with me! For sure the next one and then J can talk to him : )
Sunday - Working and then probably hanging out at my parents, my little bro is gonna be home so I'll be hanging out with him as much as possible before he heads back down to SD.
