What are you up to?
Today I am about to leave for Pilates and hot yoga classes, then hit up the nutrition mart for some gluten free baking items, then shop around the mall for a bit. Then groceries. Later will relax and watch movies.
Re: Plans today?
LO slept horrible, which means I slept horrible. DH wasn't much better off, and was up at 3am to bring my Mom to the airport. So a nap is somewhere in the day!
Were going to go to local hotel swimming, then lunch and a big old nap for everyone I hope. Tonight we are going to my Grandparents for dinner with the family and have to stop somewhere to get a few things.

Sounds like nobody got a good night's sleep! I was up at 5 for no reason whatsoever. Ugh.
Frank and Bella just left for dance class, then they're going out to breakfast and running a few errands. I am relaxing!
Later this afternoon B will be leaving for a sleepover...Frank and I are going out tonight for my birthday.

We're getting about 6 inches of snow today. Jonathan woke up with a nasty cough, so he'll spend the day taking it easy watching movies, while I clean the house, meal plan for next week.
I also want to bake a batch of muffins or two of muffins for the work week. Aside from that it's just going to be your typical weekend.
I also have to spend some time writing a few blog entries for this month, and if time permits, I would like to start my what's baking roundup as I've already gotten a few submission.
Got up and skipped my workout - a rest day is necessary and I just felt tired - DH and I made breakfast instead. I made some pecan praline sauce for tonight, we are having friends over for dinner and games to celebrate DH's birthday (tomorrow) and plan to have waffle brownies w/butterscotch ice cream and praline sauce for dessert.
I still need to shower and then we have a couple of errands to run, them back home to get ready for dinner tonight.
Up early this morning as I have a very important meeting this am (not trying to be secretive, just worried about it leaking out there...you never know who reads this!).
Then DH and I will get lunch, hit-up Costco, come home to clean, prep and organize for brunch tomorrow.
Tonight - I am going to a friends for her bday celebration - I am bringing Black Bean & Butternut Squash Eggrolls.
Gotta clean up the house a bit, make 7-layer dip and assemble all the other food and buy paint for a painting party this afternoon. We're painting the living room, and friends offered to help. I graciously offered them Mexican food and margaritas!
Tonight, nothing. Staring at our new, lighter, living room walls, probably.

I ran 26.2 miles this morning in honor of a woman who was murdered while running. I was planning on running 23 anyway so it wasn't too big of a deal to make it a marathon.
Now I'm enjoying a kale and egg burrito.
Tonight we're either going to have a bon fire at home or go to a local church for their Valentine's Day dinner + movie.

I was out late (past midnight, lol) so I slept in a little today, then after we had some hanging out/play time, we got started on some little jobs around the house we need to do to get the house ready to sell- paint touch ups, cleaning out some closets and cupboards, repairing trim around the attic opening, stuff like that. I've also been working off and on on DD's class valentines. DH has been to Home Depot twice, lol.
