Re: Whatever Friday

  • Hope your day is great Leslie!
  • Hope you have a great day and trip! Happy birthday!

    I get Monday off!! I need 4:30 to get here as quickly as possible.

  • Happy Birthday, Leslie! I can't wait to hear all about Vegas!

    I feel like I should do something big and exciting on 11-11-11. I have no idea what, but it seems like a day where I should do something momentous.

  • Oh, I didn't even realize that today was 11-11-11! Fun! :)

    Ok, so... my abs hurt when I sneeze.  Badly.   I would also like to add that no one should ever have to do the Macarena dance while in plank position.   It is cruel and unusual punishment.  

    Boot Camp is totally kicking my butt, but I love it so far!

  • I have not been so happy its a Friday in a long time.

    We are doing a secret pal gift exchange (kind of like secret santa but just for the heck of it no holiday association) and my pal got lucky last night. I was going to get a $10.00 barnes and noble card but at the register was told it had to be $25 or more, and the line was super long so I just did the $25.

    I cant even picture that.  I am so sad I couldnt make it last night between being sick and stupid car issues.  I am kind of jealous that you went and I missed out :(

  • BL- I feel the same way!  I am jealous and feel like I missed out last night :-(

    I am trying to convince DH to let me get my tattoo tonight, but no luck so far :-P

    It was ugly. For sure.  You actually had to do the actual dance, one arm at a time..and then shift 1/4 turn and do it again, and again, and again.

    Don't feel bad guys, just come Saturday!  If it makes you feel any better the class was less than half the size it was on Tuesday.

    That sounds like the kind of thing my trainer would come up with. She has us try to sing when we're in plank, and keep rhythm by lifting and bouncing our toes. These people are EVIL.

    I know there are a couple of moms on the board, so my Flame will make sense to them...

    POTTY TRAINING.

    That. Is. All.

  • Happy Birthday Leslie. :)

  • I have baby back ribs from pinterest in the crock pot and I am SO excited to wake up and eat dinner later! And me & Daniel finally have a day off together so I got some movies and candy for an at-home date. So flippin' excited! :)

    Do y'all have any date plans for this weekend?

    PS I also have 2 meetings with prospective adoptive families for my little girl foster doggie tonight! Fingers crossed please!

  • Happy birthday Leslie!

    Chelsea, potty training is the worse.  SD wasn't potty trained when DH and I started dating and it was a PITA because it took forever since there wasn't consistency between the 2 houses so SD was a little over 4 before she was potty trained and then she still had frequent accidents up until age 5.  I'm not looking forward to it with this one but I'm hoping that since it will all be done at one house it will make it a million times easier.

    Not a lot going on this weekend.  I'm either going Christmas shopping for DH tomorrow or SD and I are taking one of the dogs to a rescue group reunion.

    I think we are going on a double date tonight for Sushi!

    I was thinking that DH and I haven't been out of town together since we got married. We use to do it about every other month during our dating years to just get time together and now nothing. I know it's because he works every other weekend and we have a lot of family and friend stuff, but has this happened to anyone else?

     Tiffany I can't even picture what you are talking about, but my abs hurt trying to figure it out.

  • Happy Bday Leslie, hope you have a great time in Vegas.

    I am jealous of you ladies that are doing the boot camp/ getting exercise.

    I can't wait until I get the go ahead from doctor to start exercising after the baby is here.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend!

  • I am wearing boots and a new leopard print top today, so I feel super cute.  I got here early, I'm having a good hair day (despite washing & not drying it last night).  I am going to try to get my hair cut today instead of tomorrow, and I might even get my nails painted.  It's Friday.  It's a great day!!!  Smile
  • Happy Friday!  Our I-phones are supposed to arrive today.  I will be so happy to join the rest of you already in the 21st century.

    Our 10-year anniversary party at work is tomorrow--I hope it's fun.  It's a casino night which I don't really get into.  I told Ben he may just have to sit with me while I drink. 

    Sunday we are meeting his parents to pick up the afghan his mom made us for our wedding anniversary.  I'm excited to see it.

  • DH and I were planning on having a movie day, but he went and bought MW3 a little bit ago. I know he'll be playing it all.day. Kind of a bummer, but poor guy has been looking forward to getting it since it came out.

    DHs work took us out to Papadeauxs yesterday for lunch. I'm now addicted to that place. I had a dream about it last night. I cant get over their Alaskan King Crab hubby let me try. It sounds so good right now. :)

    I cant get that song by Rascal Flatts and Natasha Bedingfield out of my head. I think its called Easy. Not for sure, but its a great song.

  • We will be packing this weekend.  Fun times.
  • Date plans!

     

    Haha, I was the wife that stood in line at midnight last night for my husband to get the new Elder Scrolls SkyRim xbox game. soooo, we are having a weekend in, him on the xbox, and me on the sewing machine, making his sisters' xmas presents. :p

     Tonight we are going to MarriedLife at our church, it's just this cool little get together to eat and hang and chat with other married couples. excited about that!

  • DH is applying for a job tomorrow - it's an in-person deal, so any ju-ju & T&Ps would be greatly appreciated.  If he were to get hired, he could be on the payroll even though he's still in school, and that would be pretty much amazing.

    Lacey - when do you move again?  Soon, right?

    Hahaha. My hubby said when he went to GameStop this morning, there were 10-15 people in line getting that game! He was in there for about 30 minutes, because they had to manually type in the credit/debit card numbers because their systems were down.

    What church do you go to? DH and I are trying to find someplace to hang out with other married couples, and he would love that!

    Thats awesome that you sew. I couldnt sew if my life depended on it. LOL.

    Hee, Ben was at Gamestop at midnight too!  Up until 3 am and is already back at it.  I won't see him for a month.  My daughter sews and is making alot of Christmas presents this year too--she already has the sewing machine out on the dining room table!

    Lots of T&P your way!  That would be awesome.

    We are moving next weekend.  I am excited about already being there and being unpacked.  :)

    I wish I knew how to sew.  :)

  • Angie, good luck to your DH!

    Lacey, did you buy or are you still renting?

    Tonight we're babysitting SIL's kiddos while they're at a wedding (11/11/11!). Tomorrow night is DH's birthday potluck gathering at our house. Other than that, I'm just going to be getting ready for my phone interview for the music librarian position at UNT on Tuesday!!

    I watched him play the first 10 minutes of it, last night, and it looked super cool. then i crashed. haha.

     We go to Heartland Church, in Carrollton, Tx. It's basically right off of 35E and 121.  It's our little haven.  There are tons of young people, and a lot of really open minds, which is nice, especially since we've both been judged before at other churches for having visible tattoos.   We go on Monday nights (The Net group is 18-30 college and careers) then volunteer and go to special events stuff :)

     And sewing is not something I thought I'd be good at, as patterns are so confusing looking to me.  But, without a pattern, I made my halloween costume and realized I'm pretty nifty with a sewing machine!
