Re: Weekend Plans

  • Tonight - lounging and doing squat

    Tomorrow - heading to te dump. We cleaned out or garage and have a ton to drop off. Then we have to deliver stuff to my mums that we have been holding in our garage. I also want to soak the pnps in the bathtub for a few hours. They got super messy and I am going to be using them in a few weeks with the boys going to my ILs during the birth and then with baby here. After I will go to my Mum's house with te boys while DH gets some work done.

    Sunday - we are going to head to the zoo I think. Weather depending!

  • Tonight: Working but get out early because I stayed 3 extra hours Monday night. Then DH and I are going to Bonefish for a late dinner because I NEED Bang Bang Shrimp.

    Tomorrow: Chilling during the day and then we're going to dinner and a comedy show.

    Sunday: Corned beef & cabbage in the crockpot and maybe a movie. I should probably do some of the homework I've neglected over spring break but if I'm honest with myself, that'll get done Monday before work since it's not due till Tuesday.

  • Tonight - it's H's birthday so I'm making him crab cakes, garlic mashed potatoes and yeast rolls for dinner. Last night I made him key lie pie, carrot cake with a pineapple filling and cream cheese frosting, and carrot cake cupcakes all to bring to work to share.

    Tomorrow - H will be going with my brother and a friend to drink beer at the barleywine festival while SIL, friend and I take all our kids to the zoo.

    Sun - MIL may be coming down and we may do a pizza and scotch night with some friends.

  • Today we are headed to a friends house. And so begins the attempt to keep things under wraps. Also known as 'let's find out how much of a lush my friends think I am! '

    Tomorrow we will be doing house stuff. Both new house and old house. Joy.

    Sunday we have a baptism- for my goddaughter :) i am ridiculously excited for that. Corned beef and cabbage will be in the crock pot all day for the devouring on Sunday night. I think we will also try to do a hangout with my brother, his wife, and my nephew, and we will probably tell them the news.

    We have told each of our parents (they were aware of our upcoming treatments, etc) and we were planning on keeping it at that for a bit more, but MIL and FIL were at H's sisters house, and she emailed us today that she was about to burst and isn't sure she can make it all weekend without saying something, so it looks like we may add siblings in sooner than expected.

  • Tonight - K and I will be driving out to my parents to attend a funeral visitation.  DH can't get off work in time so I'm hoping when he gets home  he will do some cleaning.

    Tomorrow - K has swim classes and then we are doing some house stuff.  We close 2 weeks from today --- YAY!!!

    Sunday - Nothing planned.  Maybe will try to pack some more and chill out.

  • tonight: yoga, painting doors

    tomorrow: toning and zumba, meeting with the daycare lady, house stuff, cleaning, dinner with friends

    sunday: house stuff, birthday brunch for my BIL, house stuff....but i'm sure by that point instead of house stuff i'll want to take a nap.

     

    i'm tired. i'm ready for the house to be put back together. i'm over painting and moving furniture and the endless cleaning needed while ripping your house apart and putting it back together. so i'll push through so that once its done I can do nothing.

  • @mrsvedo mmmmmmmmm bang bang shrimp.

  • Tonight - DH and I were supposed to meet a friend for dinner, but neither of us slept at all last night and DH has been stuck in Albany all day for work, so who knows when he'll be home.  Normally I would suck it up for a dinner out but this guy is one of those friends who requires extra energy, so I'm not sure I'm up for it. 

    Tomorrow - formulate the email to our realtor explaining that we're going to go ahead and buy the house, despite the fact that the sellers aren't willing to negotiate AT ALL with the $16k worth of repairs that came up on the home inspection.  The good news is none of them are absolute emergencies so we can do them little by little (and I'll just have to put off renovating my kitchen and bathroom for a bit). I'm more annoyed at the fact that they "countered" our proposal with the original agreement (meaning, no compromise) and two options that happen to be illegal and immoral, rather than saying, "We really cant afford any concessions." and leaving it at that. Sending an email sounds like a quick task, but it will literally take me hours to formulate everything I want to say the way I want to say it. I wanted to get the email out tonight but DH said we should calm down first. We're both annoyed, but ultimately, we want and can afford the house. 

    Sunday - No clue.  Relaxing, hopefully.

  • Tonight - chilling out as usual. 

    Saturday - H is working. I'll be doing chores, hoping to get in a quick run, maybe get a hike/trail walk in there too. And giving the dog his bi-weekly bath so he's not too stinky when we visit my family next weekend.

    Sunday - Church and relaxing. This weekend really isn't full of plans!

  • Tonight: Burger King for dinner, then grocery shopping. Hoping to do some cleaning, but I know that won't happen.

    Tomorrow: I need to clean in the morning, take DH out for his birthday lunch with a few friends at UMI's Japanese Steakhouse, coming back with said friends to play CAH, then relaxing the rest of the night with my possibly drunk H.

    Sunday: Hopefully nothing but laundry.

  • @pandpmeant2b my husband and I did what you're doing. we purchased our house knowing that the sellers wouldn't pay to have repairs done and every time we fix something it angers me so much!!

    and the amount it would have taken to fix our stuff was a lot less than $16K.

  • @amccul20- I know I'm gonna get angry too! But if we walked away from this it would be cutting off our noses to spite our face, ya know? So frustrating!
