Weekend Plans?
It's a beautiful weekend here. How's the weather where you are? What are your plans for the weekend?
I'm finishing my dog-/house-sitting assignment for my parents today and tomorrow morning, so I will spend the day at their house and walk the dog later tonight. DH is at a Scottish Games Festival today with some of his family and planning to do some nightfishing tonight with his cousin (he's enjoying the "bachelor life").
Tomorrow, we are planning to go see 22 Jump Street (the matinee, of course, since it's cheaper). Then, I will probably do some laundry and run the vacuum to prepare for the week ahead. I'm on vacation for the month of July, so I have lots of plans for work on my dissertation, beginning this week.

Re: Weekend Plans?
Today we are going house hunting, and I'm completely excited about it, but also nervous. We list our house on the 7th, and houses in our neighborhood have sold in 8 days so if we don't have an idea of where we can move we may be screwed! I'm hoping looking today will help me de-stress about the situation because we will find something that we like.
My mom and I are spending two weeks in Hawaii in July so I spent the morning booking transportation for each of the islands we're visiting. Fortunately, that was on her credit card.
She's taking care of the excursions, food and transportation
while we're there. My responsibilities for the trip were the flights (free
using miles!) and hotel (half free using points, the rest I booked through
Jettsetter for over half-off plus free breakfast). This afternoon we ran some errands and then
grabbed brunch, and tonight I'm going to finish up a work project due by the
EOB on Monday. Tomorrow, drinks with a
former co-worker, and getting ready for the work week and a three-day trip to
Orlando for the long weekend!
Weather is beautiful here. Sunny and 80s. We went on a hike this morning. Got some sun tan and exercise
After the hike, came home to shower and change, and went out to BJ's to get some groceries for the week.
We had dinner at home, and now I feel like I will fall asleep sitting here. But, I am waiting for 'Girl Meets World,' missed it yesterday.
Tomorrow, a co-worker is having a get together at her house. Not sure yet if we will go. I want a lazy Sunday. This month has been busy. Every weekend we had something going on.
P.S. For dinner I made http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/02/cajun-chicken-pasta-on-lighter-side.html , and it was awesome! Highly recommend it!
Came home and started grilling for having guests over tonight.
Tomorrow we may take my son to the pool so he can swim. He really loves the water.
