Re: Sunday Funday

  • We're just hanging around the house, doing some laundry and cleaning, and waiting for football to start.  We're pretty sure the Redskins are going to lose today against the Packers but have a small glimmer of hope.

    Mmm I think we're going to get Papa Murphys for lunch so I'm pretty excited about that.

  • @ecinereb, I'm so jealous that you get to go see Zac Brown Band!

    I'm getting ready to start doing a few chores. R is out hunting.

    I'm not sure what the rest of the day holds, probably not too much of anything.
  • I need to do laundry, and maybe prep for teaching this week and/or get some math done. Maybe. Later I'm babysitting for a new family that seems pretty great, so I'm looking forward to that. :)

    @ecinereb, have fun tonight!!

    @ecinereb Have fun! That sounds like a cool concert.

    @poppies717 How about a chicken pot pie?

    I just finished some grocery shopping, now I'm cleaning, meal planning for the week, and just trying to get the apartment in order. I'm trying to figure out if we have a good pick-your-own farm anywhere nearby, for next weekend.

  • @ecinereb, totally jealous for seeing Zac Brown!!

    Got up late this morning after getting home from promo events around 1a.m. Hanging on the couch and finishing up some coffee with pumpkin spice creamer. Got most of my cleaning done yesterday, so other than a trip to Target, it should be a pretty relaxing day while DH is over at the ILs watching football

  • I'm going to have lunch with my mom, then we'll do some yard work at her house. I have to do lesson plans and some grading, and laundry for the week. I can't wait for some fresh television to start because everything we used to watch on Sundays is between seasons.
  • I slept in until 9 (haven't done that in so long) and then went to Target and Yankee Candle. Buy 1 Get 1 Free!! They let me do double coupons, too, so I bought 2 and got 2 freeee!! Now I am cleaning so I can earn lighting the new fall scents. It's pathetic what brings me sheer enjoyment. lol.

    We're just hanging and watching football. Might make some turkey chili for dinner. Yum,

    It's a gloomy rainy Sunday here, and I would be perfectly content with some coffee and my Kindle for the day.

  • We went to BJs and then ran all over creation to find the strips for my fertility monitor. I ordered them last week and still haven't gotten them. Since tomorrow is day 6, I'm pretty sure it's going to ask me for a strip and I didn't wanna confuse the machine by not putting one in lol. We finally found them and I reluctantly paid double what I paid online for peace of mind. H is cooking dinner now and we decided to pull a stick from our date night jar, so it looks like we'll be trading massages later! :-)

  • @PandPMeant2B I love the date night jar! Where do you get your ideas from, just brainstorm or do you have an online source for ideas?

    So you wanted to win pig more than win big? ;). Sorry no piggy nor (+) money.

    @BeeLu - it was okay. I added another quarter cup of milk and it was still too thick! ETA: I put Bisquick dumplings on top instead of the crescent rolls. So yummy!

    I mostly brainstormed and googled when I was out of ideas.  We have three categories; free or inexpensive (like massages, movie nights, driving to nowhere, going to the dollar store and picking out gifts for each other), some money (like going out to dinner and a movie - his choice or mine, picnic in the park, museums), and expensive/requires planning (like skydiving or going away for the weekend).  I love it because we're both pretty indecisive, so whatever we pick, we have to do (I just hope we don't pick skydiving anytime soon! - WTF was I thinking when I made that one???).
