Re: How was your weekend?

    • Highs? DS spent the night at my parents' house on Saturday. While DH and I were killing time waiting for our table at Outback, we ran into our friends who were doing the exact same thing, so we ended up eating with them.
    • Lows? DS is still on a nap strike and while he woke up an hour late yesterday, he woke up an hour early today.
    • Eat/make anything good? Outback nom nom nom.
    • Watch anything good? We watched The Campaign which was kind of funny.
    • Read anything good? No.
    • FFCs, vents, comments, AWs, etc? I don't think the heat is on in my office and I'm freezing. But once they turn it on, it'll be boiling in here.
    • What are you looking forward to this week? Really trying to get the house put back together - it's taking forever. Running some errands tomorrow and making my 4th attempt at trying to score some skinny jeans. (I'm looking forward to succeeding at this, not the actual process!)

    • Highs? Our photo shoot went pretty well yesterday and I got a lot done around the house.
    • Lows? DH blew a ton of leaves in to piles this weekend so on my day off tomorrow I know I have a lot of bagging to do.
    • Eat/make anything good? Sausage Gouda Souffle from Panera and Outback
    • Watch anything good? Rock of Ages was good.
    • Read anything good? Still reading 2nd Harry Potter.
    • FFCs, vents, comments, AWs, etc? FFC: I put up a Christmas tree this weekend and I'm going shopping for a 2nd tree today.
    • What are you looking forward to this week? Having off tomorrow and going to a wine open house at a wedding vendor with my friend later this week.
    • Highs? ugh - nothing really, I was sick all weekend; I did take a 3 hour nap on Saturday - which never happens!
    • Lows? Sick all weekend
    • Eat/make anything good? no
    • Watch anything good? I watched "The Corporation" on Saturday night; Louis CK was pretty funny on SNL
    • FFCs, vents, comments, AWs, etc? I think everybody else's stress and anxiety is starting to stress me out and its annoying.  I need to figure out how to combat it.
    • What are you looking forward to this week? Meals - DH is trying to start working out again and so I meal planned accomodating 2 days of very late homecomings for him and DD - we'll see how it works out.

  • Highs? It was an incredibly packed, fun weekend.  I got to hang out with nesties on Friday and Saturday night and yesterday DH and I had a pretty fun afternoon running errands.  Also had an awesome class session last night teaching Confirmation at church.  After the way last week's class went, this definitely belongs in this section!  

    Lows? barely home

    Eat/make anything good? chicken parm soup Friday night was awesome! 

    Watch anything good? no time for tv this weekend really 

    FFCs, vents, comments, AWs, etc? Work has been stressful lately because there are so many new people on our team and no one knows what they're doing.  Plus our admin girl is NEVER here for a full day of work.  Last Monday/Tuesday we were off but Wedneday she was late because she promised to take treats in to her daughter's daycare, Thursday, she left early for something, Friday she was in court in the morning and this morning she didn't come in until 11 because she had to pay rent.  It's annoying especially because she's so behind in little things like filing and organizing which is why she was hired!  So basically she's getting paid to work part time and do nothing.

    What are you looking forward to this week? My nephew and niece are spending the night tonight (we're closed tomorrow) and Thursday I'm having dinner with a friend I haven't seen in a while.

    • Highs? We bought a new fridge yesterday. It was a spontaneous decision, but we got a great deal, and I love it. 
    • Lows? We attended a funeral on Saturday. Normally, that would be sad, but I thought it was kind of ridiculous that we went to this funeral. It was the wife of a friend of my father-in-law. I had never met her. It was in Delaware, so two hours away for a 30-minute service. We didn't even go to the gathering afterward. We said one word to the widower. I went, did not complain, and didn't say a word to my husband, but I was so irritated all day that I gave up my Saturday to attend it. We could have just sent flowers or a card.
    • Eat/make anything good? I made pumpkin chili last night and an apple butter pumpkin pie. 
    • Watch anything good? We watched "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World" last night. It was OK. 
    • Read anything good? I'm reading "Paris in Love." It's a memoir about a woman who moves to paris. It's taking me a while to get through it, but I'm enjoying it. 
    • FFCs, vents, comments, AWs, etc? See above regarding the funeral. Oh, and along that same line, I am constantly shocked at the way people dress for funerals. Maybe it's because I keep having to go to them in lower Delaware because they're all my husband's side of the family, but there are always a bunch of people wearing jeans. To me, that's so inappropriate. 
    • What are you looking forward to this week? I'm taking on the challenge of starting a traveling troupe at the children's theatre. We're interviewing directors on Thursday, so I'm excited to get the ball rolling. 

    • Highs? Dinner out with friends at Sticky Rice
    • Lows? I got a tad bit drunk on Saturday night and then daylight savings time really screwed everyone up in our house.
    • Eat/make anything good? I made old bay thighs yesterday and a chocolate peanut butter cake.
    • Watch anything good? Nope
    • Read anything good? Nope
    • FFCs, vents, comments, AWs, etc? I'm so ready for this election to be over with. I'm sick of seeing this guy stand on the over pass on Joppa road/95 North with his stupid @ss sign. I'm also sick and tired of the commercials.
    • What are you looking forward to this week? I'm getting a hot stone massage on Saturday. I'm looking forward to relaxing for about an hour.
