Just another manic Monday
Goooooooooood morning!!!
How are you fine ladies today?
How was your weekend?
Mine was alright. I worked Saturday&Sunday night, which was lame. I did hardly any schoolwork, which was terrible. We finally finished Fringe on Netflix and we are not happy at all with the ending. WTF Fringe, WTF.
They put the latest season of HIMYM on Netflix, sooo obviously that will consume us now.
I have to do my A&P project this week. I'm making a book about the human eye. Like an actual hardcover book. It should be pretty cool if I ever finish it. haha!

Re: Just another manic Monday
On another note my babies are 11 mos old today.... I can't believe I am planning their first birthday party, where did the last year go??
Lastly we are in escrow on a house.... eep! It's a short sale but the bank is promising a 10 day turn around so we could know in like 2 weeks which means we would be packing and moving right through Thanksgiving/Hanukkah/Christmas. Cue, total freakout.

aggie... poor puppy. Hopefully he is back to running with you soon. I know nothing about enthusiastic dogs, Bubba spends 80% of the day sleeping.

Jlq - are you talking about the 8th season of HIMYM? That just came on Canadian Netflix so I'm all over it. Dh is just starting to watch with me but were on season 2. I told him I couldn't wait for him to get caught up but I'll still watch with him.
Aggie- dogs are nuts!! Bauer had a sore on his foot for awhile but he would be so insane and dumb.
Jodi!! Your girls are adorable and so big!! That's exciting about the house but stressful too. Hopefully it works out and is a peaceful experience lol
I did not accomplish much this weekend. I wanted to accomplish some deep cleaning of the house so that from here tell baby it would be maintaining clean...yeah that didn't so much happen. I managed most of one bathroom and I washed the kitchen floor....oh well! Next weekend is thanksgiving for us Canadians so I won't get anything done since we'll be visiting my family.
Today is my first full day with my new daycare girl and so far so good. She's down for her first nap and went down super easy which is awesome. So now it's ds and my other girlie who are just playing quietly till snack time.
Good Morning! I had a good weekend as well. My sister new place is really nice and a block from a private beach. Yea we will be visiting her in the summer. I am still feeling sick. Whatever was is my nose has moved to my throat, great.
Echo: Glad things are going smoothly. Yummy Thanksgiving!
Jodi: Time flies! Congrats on your test.
Aggie: Sounds like an awesome weekend! Hope your puppy is doing better.
JLQ: Not sure why but eyes gross me out. But sounds like a cool project.
Aggie - what kind of soup did you make? Also, poor monster dog
jlq - good luck with your book!
Echo - good luck with your new girl. You'll do fine, I'm sure of it.
Feel better degrea!

E: What book are you reading/listening too? Whre are you going on your trip? I understand the Harry Potter break. I took months off between books. I felt like I ran a marthon after reading them and needed some light fluffy reading that I could get through in a day or two.
Question: My cousin got married a month ago. He just woke up one morning and decided to get married. Main reason is his girlfriend visa is up, but they have been dating a while, like 3 years. Anyhoo I was told this by my mom, who heard the information from my aunt (his mom). My aunt and uncle weren't at the wedding as it is a long drive and was so last minute. My aunt also indicated that they were going to have party in his honor with in the year, most likely next spring. So my sister, parents and I thought that we would give him a gift when they had the party and we all sent at text/email saying congrats. Were we in the wrong? Should we have sent a gift right away?
I make white chicken chili. It's ridiculously easy and pretty darn good.
degrea I think your gift timing makes sense.
Oh another weddiy funny. My cousin- the one who sent and std 6wks before the wedding to my parents for the whole family. Yeah they didn't send invites to the wedding party because they knew they were coming. Except no one in the WP knew the time or location of the wedding. HA!

jlq & degrea - no where exciting, just Ohio (no offense to our Ohioians on the board.) I'm hitting four schools in three days so lots of driving. The audiobook I got is Wedding Night by Sophie Kinsella. Her books are total fluff but that's what I need at the moment.
