Re: How was your weekend?

    • Highs? Had a lot of free time and we wore the dogs out which meant I got to sleep past 4:30a.m. both days. Awesome.
    • Lows? Can't think of anything.
    • Make/eat anything good? Didn't make anything but we had a great meal at Lewnes' (steak, greek salad with the potatoes, lyonnaise potatoes, onion rings and mushrooms).
    • Read anything good? I finished Between You and Me by Nicola Kraus & Emma McLaughlin and now I'm reading The Other Boleyn Girl.
    • Watch anything good? I'm almost all caught up on Downton Abbey except for last night's episode. I also watched last week's episode of The Following.
    • FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? Aside from Saturday's dinner splurge, I've been very good about watching what I eat, having a protein shake every morning and I went to exercise class 5 days last week. I'm hoping I can keep up the momentum.
    • What are you looking forward to this week? Nothing except it being over.
    • Highs? Dinner at Melting Pot on Saturday.
    • Lows? DS woke up early on Saturday and was possibly sick?
    • Make/eat anything good? Melting Pot :) I could seriously just go for the cheese course!
    • Read anything good? No
    • Watch anything good? Just catching up on Bones.
    • FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? DS came home from daycare on Friday with a bright red cheek and may possibly have had Fifths Disease? We aren't sure and he had no fever so that is suspect to me. And I just read that pregnant women should avoid exposure to it. Like I can avoid my own kid. Also, DS is being a total Daddy's boy lately and pushes me away.
    • What are you looking forward to this week? DH is going out of town this Fri-Sun which I am not looking forward to, but maybe some alone time in the evenings will be nice.

    Lows? Not really having a weekend.  I worked every day. 

    Make/eat anything good? Lots of yummy Korean food at the ILs yesterday for New Year's.

    Read anything good? No

    Watch anything good? We watched Flight.  Watching airplane crash scenes is not easy for me but the movie was pretty good.  We also finished House of Cards.  The last few episodes were great!

    FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? I'm really tired, between work and family drama, a break.   

    What are you looking forward to this week? A full two day weekend with nothing planned!

    Read anything good? No - I finished "The Thornbirds" need to find a new book

    Watch anything good? 2 hour Downton Abbey last night!

    FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? Vents - I think DD's recent nastiness has been partially attributed to her being sick, but part of it is just her being a stinker 4 yo.  Its getting old. ... AW - Thank God for my patient, creative husband.  I was about to lose it w/ DD not taking her medicine yesterday but he managed to get her take it.  There is a reason you need 2 parents!!

    What are you looking forward to this week? Leaving for our first cruise (with my family!) on Sunday!!

  • Highs? Watching my girl have an awesome weekend. She went to a Sweethearts' Dance with DH on Friday night, had drama on Saturday morning, and had a playdate on Sunday morning.

    Lows? DD got up late Friday night and puked in the upstairs hallway. DH and I had a rough weekend, relationship-wise.

    Make/eat anything good? Nothing comes to mind.

    Read anything good? Nope

    Watch anything good? Just catching up on DVRed TV. I liked last week's Vampire Diaries.

    FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? Things are just really rough lately for DH and I. We'll sort it out, but it's hard.

    What are you looking forward to this week? I took Friday off to take DS in for shots in the AM and I'm going to enjoy some alone-time in the afternoon.

    • Highs? It was mostly low key, which was nice.
    • Lows? I caught my finger in the blade of a hand blender yesterday and now have 8 stitches on my left index finger, it was (and still is) really painful.
