What's everyone up to? Will you be impacted by the storm?
Re: NMMR Weekend Plans
Saturday: I'm signed up for a "winter wildlife tour" of Boston Harbor with some friends. The storm isn't supposed to arrive until the afternoon now, so they haven't cancelled it. The weather actually could push a lot of birds of north, so it could be neat. If it's freezing and miserable, this boat has an indoor area with a bar
Sunday: Yoga if weather allows and then watch the Pats at home. They're only predicting a couple of inches here now.
Sunday- H is going out to watch football with his friends and I might drive into the city to spend some time with my uncles and my cousin.
A pretty chill weekend; really I'm just happy to not have to work tomorrow, so I'll take it : )
We are supposed to get coating-4", but it's still up in the air, they are having a hard time predicting the amount for this storm...but it's going to start sometimes Saturday late morning to afternoon.
Friday- Homemade pizza night, gym
Saturday- Supposed to have a friend over for dinner, but not sure pending weather. Otherwise, decorating the man-cave as the furniture came. Work on painting the bathroom
Sunday- Setting up our game systems, laundry/cleaning, more bathroom painting. H is having a friend over to watch a football game.

We might go to a bread making class and out to church. Otherwise, probably staying in and watching movies and getting stuff done around the house.
We are supposed to get 1-3" If we do get snow the most disappointing thing for me will not being able to go outside and play in it (I hope I'm never too old to go sledding!) since I'm still sick.
No major plans, like @csuave I still have some remaining vestiges from my super bad cold. Going on 3 weeks now! Meh!
I want to get some reading done. Educational/self help instead of fluff...for once, lol. Now that I am feeling better, I also need to get back to my organizing/purging of belongings.
I'm way too far south for the storm, though our temperatures are dropping 10-20 degrees over the next few days from what they have been. I'm assuming that is related. I would complain about the lows being in the super chilly mid 30s, but I don't expect any sympathy
.
For those of you in the path of bad weather, hunker down! May your power stay on and your hot cocoa stay warm.
Today we are finishing moving the toys to the upstairs play area so we can reclaim our living room. Dh also needs to do some painting in the laundry room so we are ready for the cabinet install.
Saturday dh and my dad will hopefully install cabinets in my laundry room. I'm so excited about this. We got an amazing deal at the restore store in downtown Houston. They carry brand new cabinets that are wood, and were actually cheaper than the box stores. Plus the $ went to a good cause!
Sunday I have no idea what is going on. Finishing cabinets of they didn't get them done Saturday.
Sat: errands, girls day with some of my girlfriends - lunch and painting! Not sure what the rest of the day will be.
Sun: our niece's birthday party and ???
Edit: for once the snow storm isn't headed in my direction!
Friday--I actually left work early because I feel like I'm coming down with a cold. I'm going to try to head it off by resting all day.
Saturday--No plans; if I'm feeling sick I'll just be lazy all day probably. I have a bunch of stuff that we are getting rid of during our de-cluttering challenge to take to my mom's house and to donate. H is going somewhere bird hunting.
Sunday--Regular chores such as laundry, buy groceries, etc. College classes start on Monday so I'll enjoy my last homework free weekend.
In an unusual twist of fate, not impacted by the current storm. In fact, I just looked at our 5-day forecast and it is supposed to be clear and unseasonably warm--like high 30's/low 40's. If it makes you feel any better, there's still plenty of snow on the ground from the last couple of storms we got.
Ugh, I know, totally learned our lesson! We also use our couch a ton, we were sleeping on it for the first few months when DD was born and the filling in the cushions is all broke down and the springs are super pokey. My DH cares nothing about decor and even he is embarrassed by it lol. For now we're buying used but someday definitely looking for something better quality!
