Happy Friday!
Woo Friday!
I drove my new car in for the first time today and so far I love it. We got a bit of snow last night, so it was different to have to brush off a much taller car (and might get tough as this belly gets bigger) but the heated seats were ah-mazing.
Derek super-duper cleaned up the house yesterday and omg is looks amazing. It's funny, because when he's in clean/tidy mode, he generally gets angry. Oh well, at least the house is clean?
Tonight I think we're going to go to a movie. So far the front runners are Hugo, Immortals and The Muppets. We haven't been out to a movie since HP7, so it will be nice.
Tomorrow we're off to go tree picking with Tim and Shannon and the girls and then are going to a party a Tim's sisters for the UFC fight. We've spent a lot of time with Tim's family, so it will be nice to see them!
What does everyone else have on the go this weekend?
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
Re: Happy Friday!
Happy Friday! Last night was a lot of fun--the good-bye happy hour with my co-workers was great. I confess I've been feeling kind of out of place at work, so it was nice to just sit down and chat with everyone for a while.
Today I have to walk over to a packet pickup for a race I'm doing on Sunday. Tomorrow I'm having my hair cut, so I'm really looking forward to that. I've been trying to work with my waves instead of straightening all the time, so I need the cut to start off with healthier hair. Monday's my flex day, so I made plans to have lunch with my favorite former co-workers from my old job. Somewhere in there I'll be writing a book review, doing some reading and trying to figure out the rest of the Christmas gifts I need to get.
Have a great weekend everyone. Let's hope 5pm gets here soon!
Yay for Friday!
Last night was horrible. Seriously, I don't know how to get this cold out of my house, and Zach was miserable. I was up 1/2 the night with him, and at moments I felt like a bad mommy. It's so frustrating and heart breaking at the same time.
On a brighter note, it is Friday and work this week has been crazy, but inspiring. I am currently mentoring a manager on better communicating with her team, and her team has mentioned to me that they are already seeing a difference. It makes me feel good since this manager is someone that I semi report to sometimes.
This weekend, we are doing DH's Thanksgiving (yes late but because we were away) with his family Sunday. If the boys feel better, maybe a trip to see Santa and a little Christmas shopping.
Have a great weekend ladies!
I took the day off and plan on enjoying it since it's my birthday. DH surprised me with a half day at the spa this afternoon, and I'm trying to get some shopping done this morning before I head over for some pampering. Then dinner with friends.
Tomorrow will be family day and we're taking our nieces ice skating in central park. We fly back to London on Sunday.

Happy birthday, sushi!
Last night I had a fun TC/wine night. Afterwards I put up a few more Christmas decorations. I think that pinterest is really finally starting to take its toll on my house. I can't say that I'm upset by it though because it is looking very festive.
This weekend I really need to work on cleaning up my house. I'm hoping to do a lot of that tomorrow because Sunday I'm planning on going out to brunch with some girlfriends. Then we're going to see New Year's Eve. Then I'll head home and watch some football with Kyle. My Broncos and his Bears play each other this weekend so it's bound to be a fun day in our house.
Have a great weekend!
Hooray for Friday! Today is the last day for one of my favorite co-workers, so we'll be eating all day. We have danish Kringles this morning, will have cake later this afternoon and then are going out for happy hour.
Tomorrow, I want to go to the gym, I have to finish shopping for my Salvation Army angels since it needs to be back at church on Sunday. I also have an outing planned for Saturday for Jim's countdown calendar, so I definitely want to do that.
Somewhere in all that, we need to get groceries, go to the warehouse store, clean the house and do laundry. I'd also like to get started on the holiday baking. No wonder I never feel like I had an actual weekend.

Sushi Happy Birthday! Hope you have a great one
Last night was fantastic. I came home to find Flowers and that Dh made dinner for me to celebrate my passing the exams. We then got dressed up a bit nicer and went to see a play. I have not laughed so hard in ages. It was hilarious. My stomach hurt from laughing.
Tonight is dinner with a friend at some new burger place and the rest of my weekend is wide open. I do want to get a run in and pick up my packet for my race next weekend. Maybe a few last minute Christmas gifts who knows. I'm free!
eeeeva - I remember feeling so amazing after a crazy exam. Make sure to overdose on vitamins in the next week or so, though, because it's really easy to get sick after being so stressed out.
I'm praying we get the rest of the lights done outside and my blow-up Snoopy put up. We also need to clean out the guest room for my brother next week, which means the basement will need to get reorganized so we can throw all the stuff from the guest room in there. It's a constant rotation in our house of crap from one room to the next. Some day we'll have some better storage solutions, but not any time soon, I'm sure.
Tonight I'm headed out for hibachi and drinks with some ladies I don't really see that often and are sort of new friends. It should be interesting, but I'm hoping it's not too painful. How do you go wrong with a sushi night. mmmm. Hungry just thinking about it.
Sunday will probably be some general cleaning and figuring out the rest of the Christmas gifts we need to buy. Still trying to figure out what to do for Jackson this year. He won't really know what's going on, but I don't want to look back and be the bad parent who didn't give him at least one gift to open Christmas morning.
Yay for Friday!
It is a busy day at work today, but I am hoping to sneak out 10 or 15 minutes early. Me and my sister and the boys are giong to run to target tonight and finish up christmas shopping for my mom . I am hoping to finish up completly after my shopping trip on Monday with my grandmother.
Saturday me and my BFF are going down to the house one last time before the contractor comes on sunday. We want to make sure we have everything on our list that needs to be for him to look at it.
Sunday we are going to the house for the walk thru with the contractor. I am super nervous about what he has to say about the house and the repairs that need to be done.
Yay Friday! I have a PA today and it's "self directed", meaning I didn't have to get up this morning.
I'm going to head out Christmas shopping soon, and pick up the ingredients I need to make dinner for tomorrow. We're having some friends over with their 3 month old, and I'm excited to see him for the first time.

I am soooo happy it's Friday! This week has really dragged on. Work is starting to get stressful as everyone gears up for year end. I'm definitely going to have to work this weekend, but I am looking forward to doing so in my pjs at home. Other than working, I hope to meet up with my mom at some point, as I haven't spent quality time with her in ages. Other than that, Saturday night, we're getting together with some friends who are in from out of town.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.
Morning!
I wasn't feeling well last night so I ate what I could and laid on the couch and watched bad TV. I couldn't want our usual shows because DH and I have a deal to watch them together, so I found myself watching the Alaska State Troopers show. I couldn't stop laughing or shaking my head. It really makes us Alaskans look bad.
DH gets home tonight and I think we're just going to lay low. He sounds a bit rough this morning, after staying out all night at Christmas party.
This weekend should be errands and relaxing. I need to finish buying for the family we adopted, but I think I'm down to the final 2 gifts.
I'm feeling pretty 'meh' today. I just tried to go to the gym and my bladder was hurting too much and my clothes just feel too tight so I was only there for 30 mins and came home.
We're going to hang out with some friends at their place tonight. Tomorrow I want to do some shopping (for clothes for myself) and then after church we are going to go to a friends to watch UFC. Sunday is up for grabs. Hoping to get some good workouts in this weekend.
