How was your weekend?

Well it's Sunday evening again...

How was your weekend?

Do you have a shortened week this week?

Travel for Thanksgiving?

I hope your week goes well ladies!

Our weekend went well, we went to see Jim Gaffigan and then out to our new favorite restaurant last night. Today we have been lazy and haven't even changed out of PJs. It's been nice. :-)

I actually work more days than usual this week, I work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. But I have a 3 day weekend after that. My week will be all messed up because the patients days are off by one this week. (Mon patients were there today, Tuesday tomorrow.. Etc.. That way we all have the holiday off)

We will drive about an hour and a half to my family's neck of the woods on thanksgiving for good food.

Re: How was your weekend?

  • How was your weekend? Great!! Drove to my hometown and spent the weekend with family, cousins, and their kids and had a big Thanksgiving dinner. Talked to my mom and set new goals for TTC as well as a very inspiring and helpful sermon this morning about having faith.

    Do you have a shortened week this week? DH and I both have Thursday off but that's it.

    Travel for Thanksgiving? 1 hour away to his Grandparent's for his big Thanksgiving dinner.
    Hope your week goes good Blue<3

    How was your weekend? My weekend was very chill which was awesome.  I only got out of my pajamas yesterday to shower and then I put them right back on.  Dh and I spent the day playing video games, watching movies and being lazy, it was wonderful.  Today was another lazy day but instead of video games and movies it was cookie baking/decorating and TV.  Dh has a bad cold so although he wasn't feeling great it was nice to have a weekend spent with just us hanging out at home.

    Do you have a shortened week this week? I do indeed, I only have to work Monday-Wednesday, woohoo!

    Travel for Thanksgiving? We'll be spending Thanksgiving with Dh's family who live just over an hour away, so technically we're traveling but not 'traveling traveling'.

  • @xan921 I shower just to put pjs back on a lot too!! I haven't even managed a shower today though. Blah.

    Also, feel free to mail me some of those cookies! I ALMOST made some today and then talked myself out of it! Lol
  • I had a great weekend. I got to shop all the craft fairs with candj428.  Today was bittersweet because my nephews got baptized and I wasn't invited. I just kept myself busy with other things and keep telling myself this isn't about me. I went out to a new restaurant with Jimothy when I got back and since we were within 4 blocks of my recently widowed aunt's house, we stopped in to visit with her for a bit. Now I've been correcting papers and getting ready for the short work week.

    We'll be traveling to my parents house, but it's just a two hour car ride away. We'll go down Wednesday and return on Thursday evening.

  • The weekend was good.  I got my hair cut and highlighted yesterday and then DH and I went to see "About Time".  It was so good.  I can't recall the last time I sobbed like that during a movie.

    Today I went to Watertown, NY with my parents.  I picked up fabric for a lap quilt for my SIL for Christmas and some adorable fabric for a friend's baby quilt.  I also got two super cute blazers from Dress Barn (below).

    And, to top it off, my team (Saskatchewan Roughriders) are currently kicking ass in the Grey Cup.

    We had a good weekend. Friday and Saturday I worked a craft bazaar and we did well...not great but we walked away successful and with a couple orders so overall good. Then Saturday night DH, my mom and I went out to the casino and watched a local band and I tried a drink called voodoo juice. It was yummy! Then we went to a giant local craft bazaar and got a cute penguin Christmas decoration. Had dinner at my parents and came home to a quiet evening. :)

  • How was your weekend? Not too shabby.  We went to a wedding for H's best friend, and H stood up in it.  So I occupied myself at the bar for far too long each night.  Meh, oh well.  It meant I got to see some awesome friends from college, and stock up on wine from Trader Joes.  So I can't complain.

    Do you have a shortened week this week?  Yup.  Off Thursday and Friday. :)

    Travel for Thanksgiving? No.  We are hosting Friendsgiving this year. So everyone is traveling to us.

    My weekend was AWESOME!

    I won tickets at work to see Drew Carey!!! (AAAHHHH!!!) Only downside is, I'm pretty sure my place of employment owns my soul now. OH WELL!!! totes worth it!! :dreamy sigh:

    ETA: I'm going to my mom's for turkey day, and I'm only off Thursday. H is working straight through. Yay, retail! (/sarcasm)
  • Weekend was good. We went to dinner Saturday which was nice. Weekends are just too short!

    We have school until Wednesday. We get out early on Wednesday and then we are off until next Wednesday (thanks hunting season!). There is a big winter storm coming this way so I hope we can get these days in and not har to make them up later!

    The only travel we are doing is going to my parents' house on Friday. I am so ready for Thanksgiving!

  • How was your weekend? Relaxing.  DH and I pretty much hung around the apartment and did some much-needed cleaning and organizing.  We also (finally) saw Thor.   

    Do you have a shortened week this week?  Yes and no.  I'll be working a 12-14 hour day tomorrow and was supposed to have all day Wednesday off, but now it'll probably just be a half day.  I do have Thursday and Friday off, though.

    Travel for Thanksgiving?  Not really.  Both DH and I's families live within an hour of us.  We're going to my parents' for Thanksgiving Day, then spending the day after with his mom, then doing the "traditional" mutton dinner on that Saturday.  (I literally wait all year for mutton day.)

  • My weekend was good up until I found out that I would be seeing people that I really don't want to see on Thanksgiving this year. It's a long, complicated story, but put it to you this way - I'd rather stick a fork in my eye than spend Thanksgiving with them. (probably have secured my spot in hell for that comment, btw)

    Other than that though, weekend was good. Had an early birthday celebration Saturday that consisted of dinner at this banging Colombian Bistro. No alcohol, as I'm in the 2WW and trying a different approach by abstaining from drinking, but they made these alcohol free mojitos that were so delicious, you didn't even miss the rum.

    I work until Wednesday, but office is closing early then I'm off until next Tuesday so will decorate and bake Christmas cookies then :)

    Happy Thanksgiving, ladies :)
  • Happy Monday, ladies!

    How was your weekend? Saturday was good. DH and I did a little shopping and then went out to eat.  That was before his sister asked us if we wanted to meet at her friend's for pizza.  So we went there for dessert.  It was really nice.


    Do you have a shortened week this week? Really short week. Today I'm working til 3 because DH and and I have our home inspection, working all day tomorrow and off the rest of the week. 

    Travel for Thanksgiving? We'll be driving down to my sister's in VA (about 10 hours), so we're leaving at the ass crack of dawn on Wednesday morning so we can be there in time to celebrate the first night of Chanukah.

  • My weekend was pretty good.  Had to do a little work Sat morning for about an hour.  Then we went and checked on the progress of our house.  They haven't done much more.  I think they are doing the electrical this week.  Then we saw Catching Fire on Sunday. 

    We were supposed to get a lot of ice and I am disappointed we didn't because I wanted to work from home today! :-(

    I have Thurs and Fri off, so at least I get a four day weekend this week.  Then we are going to Oklahoma to visit SIL on Fri.

    Don't I know it!  It's supposed to start snowing here (MA) on Wednesday, so hopefully 5 am is early enough to miss both storms headed this way!

  • Happy Monday!  I'm actually happy that it's Monday for once 1) because it's a short work week and 2) because I finally have my HSG tomorrow and I can hopefully stop stressing!

    How was your weekend?  Weekend was awesome!  H let me sleep in both days and got up with my stepdaughters.  We pretty much hung out at the house all weekend except Saturday night when we went to my grandma's 80th birthday.  We put up our tree yesterday and watched football.


    Do you have a shortened week this week?  Yes, thank you Jesus!!  We work today and tomorrow and til 11am on Wednesday.

    Travel for Thanksgiving?  Yup, leaving from work on Wednesday to Galveston (about 3 hours from Austin) to have Thanksgiving by the beach :)  My family rented out two beach houses and there will be around 35-40 of us there.  We'll be there from Wednesday til Sunday morning.

  • Happy Monday ladies.  My weekend was pretty good.  Went Friday night out with my ILs for my FIL's bday.  Fun, yummy, love Claim Jumper.  Then home and chilled out.  Saturday, we got up and went to the swap meet, had a few drinks.  Then went out and bar hopped a little and had way way too much to drink..  Went home and I basically crashed out.  So then Sunday comes, I got up, stayed in my pjs ALLL Day, but I did get up to take a shower.  Lol But then right back to the couch.  Football all day. 

    Work we are closed Thursday so I will be going to Hs family for a few hours then over to my family's for the remaining of the evening.  We travel about 15 minutes from each house.  So not much traveling goin on. 

    @sparklingdiamond So how was Catching Fire???

  • How was your weekend? It was great but went waaaayyy to fast! My mom as grandfather came in town, and we did some shopping and a lot of eating. I was so sad to see them go this morning. At least we will be home in a month for Christmas!

    Do you have a shortened week this week? Yep! Three days of work and then off for the rest of the week. This week will also not be very productive since I am telling my clients that they are getting a new therapist since I was offered the children's job on Friday!!!

    Travel for Thanksgiving? Nope. DH and I spend this holiday by ourselves. We do a full thanksgiving dinner, but never get out of our pajamas. I actually get really excited just thinking about it!

  • My weekend was bittersweet. We had visitation for my grandma on Friday night and the funeral was on Saturday morning. We also had a bottle share party at our house Saturday night. Sunday our dog started having a series of seizures that wouldn't stop so we had to take him to the emergency vet (he's ok now) and Sunday night we had another family get together with everyone who had come in for the funeral before they all fly back. 

    All in all, it was a very, very emotional weekend. It was really good to see family that I hadn't seen in years due to distance but the reason for it was exceptionally shitty.

  • Well it's Sunday evening again...
    How was your weekend? Went to visit the In-laws. Was supposed to be my SIL's baby shower, however, due to some family health issues they canceled.  My MIL is dramatic and cried a lot of the weekend and my FIL is angry a lot so it was EXHAUSTING.  We were both happy to come home, take hot showers, and cuddle up in sweats last night.
    Do you have a shortened week this week? I do! I was actually off Monday because of our travel weekend (see above), and we're in the middle of a snow storm so I probably will work from home tomorrow.  Off Thursday and Friday.  AND I have a short week next week because we leave for Disney on Thursday morning! :) YAY
     
    Travel for Thanksgiving? Traveling the long distance of 30 minutes to my parents house.  My brother and SIL and twin 3 (almost 4) yr old nephews are in town so there will be plenty of train and car playing, as well as taking them out in the snow!
