It's Friday!

I could really get used to these 2-day work weeks!

Any thrilling plans for the first weekend of 2014?

nfp147 · January 2014

Nothing on the schedule for tonight. Our truck is in the shop and we don't know for sure if we'll get it back today. I'm happy to go home, put on my pjs and stay warm.

Tomorrow I have some errands to run and I want to get Christmas out of the house. I also want to paint the spare room that would have been a nursery but will now be my craft room. The paint is bought, I just have to get at it.

Sunday is curling and grocery shopping.

sparklingdiamond · January 2014

Not much going on here. We are having lunch with DH's family tomorrow for a late Christmas get-together. I really need to go grocery shopping. Other than that, no plans really!

@nfp147 What color are you going to paint it?

DH has lots of plans this weekend...me not so much!

Tonight: DH is doing a guy's night and going to the movies. I am staying at home and cuddling with the furbabies.

Tomorrow: Hopefully going shopping while DH is playing cards with some friends during the day. Archiver's is closing and while I'm really sad about it, I would love to get some good deals on craft supplies. Also, starting to look and see about working on another table for my craft room. We are going a date night tomorrow night, and I am trying to decide if I want sushi for dinner or go to an organic restaurant.

Sunday: Putting away Christmas, and doing some reading for work. I really need to start going through my old boxes from grad school and seeing what would be good to use since I have moved over to kids.

Not really...tomorrow will be cleaning/grocery shopping/being lazy around the apartment day.

Sunday evening I'm meeting with some college friends/sorority sisters in DC for dinner. Girls' Night Out!!!

brij2006 · January 2014

Absolutely nothing! I'm really excited about it, but I'm not used to having 2 weekends in a row with nothing to do.

Contemplating doing some deep cleaning, but I just did that to the kitchen last weekend and washed all of the curtains. Maybe I'll do some Murphys oil on the woodwork.

Tonight, prepping for tomorrow!

Tomorrow, we have about 50-60 people (minimum) coming over for our Happy Holidays/Merry New Year party. Family around 2, friends around 7:30. I'm anticipating being unsober!

Tonight/tomorrow, I'm making 2 trays of each from stratch: vegetarian lasagne, swedish meatballs, french onion soup casserole, and roasted parmesan butternut squash. We'll also have hot queso dip, chips, fresh bread and a variety of compound butters, and a homemade hot chocolate bar with all the fixin's (marshmallows, candy canes, egg nog spiral cookies, peppermint mocha Kahlua, normal Kahlua, vanilla rum, rum chatta, spiced rum, frangelico, amaretto, baileys). Oh and 7 different cookies! - I think that's all I'm making. I think.

Sunday is groceries and relaxing I hope!

@islandmonkey8 I'm coming over. All of that sounds amazing.

And what time should I be there??? That sound delicious!

Looks like a lot of us are crashing island's party!

mrshall1027 · January 2014

Good luck prepping for your party @islandmonkey8! It sounds like it's going to be amazing!!

We have a lot of cleaning up, organizing, and house work to do. I'm hoping to at least get our garage cleaned up and finish our laundry room remodel. It was supposed to be done before Thanksgiving, so just a tad behind.

I was going to be starting injections tomorrow, but I kinda want to get the initial one over with and since I got the meds today, I called my RE and they said I can do it tonight. I'm really freaking myself out. I am so scared of needles, so this is totally beyond my comfort zone. I know it probably won't be that big of a deal, but the anticipation is getting to me.

@nfp147 What color are you going to paint it?

I cannot remember the name of the colour, but it's very much like the grey here:

I didn't get mine either!

islandmonkey8 · January 2014

You're all welcome! I'm in Jersey, feel free to stop by!

rccola1981 · January 2014

@islandmonkey8, sorry I'm not driving any further east than Harrisburg for a few days ;-) I'm curious about the French onion soup casserole though.

LuckyAngel07 · January 2014

@islandmonkey8, don't offer unless you're ready for the crashing. You know I'm only a couple of hours away! Hahaha!

@nfp147, I looooove that color!! I want to do a gray similar to that in our bedroom.

Ditto. That all sounds amazing.

lindsayandjamie · January 2014

nfp147 That is practically the same colour we painted our living room before Christmas. Ours is by Behr and called Silver Fox. I never remember colours, but this one had a pretty memorable name. I absolutely love it.

This weekend I am having some friends over for brunch, I'm deep cleaning the bathrooms, and I'm reupolstering a chair. Exciting times in my life!

poppies717 · January 2014

@islandmonkey8 - My invite must be in the mail, too. See you soon! Everything sounds delicious!

@nfp147 - I know I've told you this before, but I am super jealous of your curling hobby. I wish there was a closer place to me that didn't cost $$$.

Tonight: Hoping DH will take me out to dinner. I should probably put something other than pajamas on. We may head down the street to go sledding/tubing and then have a few drinks. DH: "The bad news...Poppies can drink. The good news...Poppies can drink!"

Tomorrow: Take down Christmas stuff. We'll head over to my friend's house early to help her set up for her party. She has major anxiety and almost cancelled the whole thing. I'm hoping I can kick people out kindly when she is ready for them all to leave!

Sunday: DH is flying out for work, so I will spend my day with the pups and pretending to grade papers. Just kidding. I might get the editing done; that's my favorite part!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! You so deserve it for putting up with me! xoxoxo

mrsvedo · January 2014

Tonight: Working till midnight.

Tomorrow: Not a damn thing.

Sunday: Book club.

Should be a very nice relaxing weekend!

Xan921 · January 2014

I ran all of our errands today so now we don't have anything that we have to do this weekend, woohoo! Ideally I'd like to finish painting our bedroom and go to the gym on both Saturday and Sunday so hopefully I don't decide to just be lazy instead (although I'm pretty ok with that too).

simsk3887 · January 2014

Tonight: Pizza night at home before the hubby goes to work from 11p-7a.

Tomorrow: Saturdays are normally a bust around this house because of hubby's Friday night schedule. He gets home and wants to cuddle to sleep and I want to get up and get stuff done. He typically holds me back from getting anything done until 10:30/11a and then I try to sneak away. He's normally up by 12:30p but doesn't really want to do anything so we end up being lazy and getting nothing accomplished.

Sunday: Church in the am, then who knows what. I need to get some groceries and do some make up work for work since the roads sucked here this morning and I didn't make it there until 10a. Boo work on Sundays.

It's Friday!
