It's Friday! AW your weekend plans!

Re: It's Friday! AW your weekend plans!
Yay for Friday! Tonight I'll be doing a little celebrating with friends... HGTV just contacted me and they are going to use a photo of our sunroom on the main page of HGTV.com! Woo hoo!
Tomorrow we have Cinco de Mayo party... and relaxing for the rest of the week.
Tonight - Drinks with a friend for his bday
Tomorrow: Chores and lots of yard work.
Sunday: Early showing of Avengers to hopefully avoid the crowds!
Jenna Sue CONGRATS! That's awesome!
Tonight just relaxing with the baby probably.
Tomorrow cleaning the house. Whoopie....
Sunday visiting family with the baby (same thing we always do).
Nothing interesting...tonight or the rest of the weekend.
Today/tonight- Grocery shopping this afternoon. DH doesn't get home until late on Fridays, so it's usually dinner and TV. Maybe we will sit in the spa.
Tomorrow- cleaning and organizing. I am hoping to get stuff that doesn't belong in our bedroom out and ready to be given away this week. We need to fit a pen or something that will contain the dogs in there, but that's another post all on its own.
Sunday- if we don't meet my daughter, son in law and grandsons at Disneyland, I want DH to take some stuff to our storage unit.
Today: Skipped out early with the intention of working on the house. So far, I've loaded the dishwasher.
Saturday: Farmer's Market. Taking DS with so it should be fun. H will be working on the house.
Sunday: Working on the house.
I have 2 paying projects I need to finish, so I hope to get some of that done, but I haven't made plans to do that.
I also decided to quit my part-time Tuesday-Thursday position. I'm feeling terribly undervalued as an employee and the person who is supposed to work below me got a little.. intimidating this week when she (finally) got me alone in the office. And then she spent the next hour after we left work trying to find a way to get my cell phone number (presumably to attempt to do it without a paper trail) so I'm done. It's nice getting paid $10/hour to sit there for 4 hours in the afternoons, but I pay $15/day to send my kid to his aunt's for daycare and I could be spending that time with him and/or working on my house and keeping it clean for when we get it listed to sell. So I'm done. T-minus 6 days until I'm done.
ETA: Woohoo Jenna! That's awesome!
TTC Baby #2 - BFP on 12/14/11 @ 10DPO - CP confirmed 12/18/11
BFP #2 on 1/13/12
Our patio pour was pushed off another week. The finisher's baby brother passed away. So it may be 2+ weeks of a mud pit for a backyard. We haven't spoke with him in the past few days, but I told DH to tell him that if he needs to spend mother's day Saturday with his mom to not worry about us. Concrete can wait.
We moved DS bday party to my parents because of said mud pit, so I will be helping her get the house ready and making the food for the party.
Tonight, dinner at home w/ wine, some laundry and catching up on DVR (already went to the gym).
Tomorrow, gym, cleaning, grocery shopping, Target run, church and grilling out for dinner.
Sunday, work.
One night we'll probably go for water ice.
Tonight: Poker night/Dinner at friends house
Tomorrow: Shop for tile for bathroom renovation. Go to new house to clean up construction debris from DH and the contractor. Possibly do some yardwork at the new house. Clean the old house (we have 2 homes now until we close on our old house at the end of May) {See link below}
Sunday: Hopefully enjoy the sunshine. Shop for bathroom vanity for new home.

Yesterday was our anniversary so we spent the whole evening together - watching movies, talking, no computers open.
Today, we are starting our morning with pancakes as soon as the husband gets up. Then we are going to a plant sale to start our very first planter garden and to tour a few houses as a part of an "Ultimate Hope House" event in our city.
Tomorrow, I have church and breakfast with my aunt and uncle. After breakfast, I am shopping with a friend for the play we are directing at the middle school where we teach. I will probably spend the evening sewing elastic for tutus.
