Re: IT'S FRIDAY!!!
Woohoo for today!
Today/Tonight: Finishing up work (!!!), and heading over to DH's farewell party @ the Officer's Club. Home afterwards to relax, since this babe has really started to drop and I am feeling the weight!
Tomorrow: DH is up & early to take the ship over to URI @ 530AM (ugh) for a "day of science" at their docks. I'll probably spend most of the day getting organized and packing for Maine and tying up some loose ends. I think we're planning a quiet night, maybe some take-out and movies
Sunday: Having some friends over for bloodies on the porch and out for a farewell brunch- really looking forward to it! The weather is supposed to be the best of the weekend, so hopefully we can walk down to the restaurant. Probably spend the rest of the day getting ready for the big shift to Maine.
Enjoy your weekend girls!

I'm thankful it's the weekend because I'm beat, but I know this weekend is going to be blah too. We have a million things we have to do, and a bunch of things we want to do. I just wonder if any will actually happen
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
TGIF!!
Today we had a work party/BBQ at lunch and played Minute to Win It. Actually turned out to be kind of fun, whereas our work parties are usually painfully awkward! Tonight Matt and I are having dinner with a few friends.
Tomorrow is yoga, a run and some errands/household stuff. I also want to go shoe shopping at some point and try to find some comfy, flat or low heeled, but cute sandals to wear next weekend to the wedding. Something I can easily dance in without falling over!
Sunday is yoga, a gardening party with my girl friends, and possibly stopping by my friend Shelley's jewelry show.
Tonight : Grocery shopping, picking up pizza for takeout date night.
Tomorrow: Hoping to get to Lowes so that we can start making some concrete choices for our kitchen renovation. I am hoping that the inlaws decide that they do NOT want to come up from PA for the weekend - keep your fingers crossed for me!
Sunday: General cleaning/housework/yard work if the weather cooperates.
Thank freaking God it's friday :-)
Today: I've cleaned like a madwoman to get ready for two fun parties this weekend. Tomorrow's couponing class with yumminess for goodies. The second party is Abby's baptism on Sunday. We've also had some work on our attic space to make it usable for storage! Can I get a "Woot Woot" It looks great! So, I'm cleaning from construction as well.
Tonight: Greek festival for some more yummies and fun!
Tomorrow: Coupon class (let me know if you want to come!) and getting ready for Sunday. Entertaining OOT family for dinner
Sunday: Baptism followed by luncheon and then I'm hoping to go strawberry picking. This week is my LAST week before I go back to work. How in the hell did it go by so fast???
Yeah! Out of work for the weekend! Right now I'm headed over to get Taylor.
Tonight: Taylor free dinner at the Olive Garden with my BFF. T is staying home with Daddy. I just need some kid free fun at the moment.
Tomorrow: nothing in the works....and I'm glad. I'm supposed to work next weekend so I just need some quiet time, and time to clean my filthy house. Maybe get some scrapping in but I think that will end up being OT instead.
Sunday: more nothing! If its nice out, maybe the park but I'd love to take a super long nap. Who knows!
Tonight: Dinner, DVD and lazing about. Going to bed early because I am incrediblyexhausted!!!
Tomorrow: Cleaning/chores and other exciting things in the AM. Then off to camp with a possible side trip to the dog park and then possibly the rail trail. MIL and I may go strawberry picking in the afternoon. DH and I also need to sneak out to go to Lowe's and Target at some point too.
Sunday: Still at camp doing camp stuff...I think it's going to be warmer and a little sunnier on Sunday so hopefully it will be a good day to be on the lake!!
The roundtable is over! Phew! My bosses were effusive in their thanks for my work the last couple of weeks and it was good to see all the people who came to town, but I'm glad it's the weekend!
Tonight: our grocery store is re-opening after a two year closure to tear down the strip mall it was in and rebuild as a high-rise mixed-use building. They're offering wine tastings and tapas tonight. I think the whole neighborhood will be there!
Rest of weekend: pool, relax, project around the house, and work on my promotion application.
Ended up having a family day today since my plans fell through and DH was rained out of landscaping. Just did a bunch of errands and went out to eat, but it was so nice.
Tomorrow- Not sure. DH's skydiving is being postponed due to the weather (woohoo!!) Might go to the Strawberry Festival in S. Berwick with Eli in the morning, then we're on our own for the afternoon and evening since DH is going camping for the night and rafting in the morning.
Sunday- Shopping and lunch with a friend, then no other plans.
Currently...
Sitting in my pjs eating chinese food, watching pawn stars and trying to put together my baby registries..
Hubby is working an overnight so I have the house to myself 
YIPPEE!!!!
And, I have the weekend off!
Tomorrow's going to be filled with chores around the house, 3 loads of laundry piled up in the chair that needs to be folded, dishes that need to be washed things like that... After that finishing and finalizing daily summer plans for my rec department, our 6 week summer program starts on Monday
Sunday some of our friends are coming over to the house then our Summer Softball league starts at 2pm... and I get to be designated book B!tch for the summer... which sucks because softball is my favorite sport and sitting on the sidelines is not my favorite thing to do.
Friday was just awful-- but it's over! DH and I grabbed dinner out and then I'm pretty sure I passed out on the couch.
We've been cleaning this morning and are getting ready for FIL to show up to haul some stuff back up to Maine and then are going to assemble the crib. If that doesn't take too long, I might be able to drag DH to Lowes to get some paint for the room. We have dinner with friends tonight at their house.
Tomorrow- hoping to paint. Dh wanted a lazy day but I'm vetoing that idea. He's traveling the next three weeks so I'd prefer to get some things done!
Yesterday we sat on Waikiki Beach and got nasty sunburns before meeting family for dinner and then enjoying cocktails, music, and hula dancing while watching the sunset.
Today we saw the USS Arizona Memorial and went to a big flea market for souvenier (sp?) shopping- black pearl set for $12! We are currently at the rental, relaxing and watching tv before heading out for some sort of fun. Maybe horseback riding at sunset? Maybe just checking out the surfing town around the North Shore... we'll see.
Tomorrow we'll be up early to go snorkeling and then DH might take a surf lesson... we'll see!
