Anything fun and exciting going on today?
How was your evening?
Don't worry about tomorrow. After all, today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. Take each day as it comes...one at a time.

Re: Happy Tuesday! :)
Last night was thrilling! Replaced my windshield wiper blades, washed and dried all of my puppies' blankets because they decided to drag them out in the yard for fun instead of leaving them in their crate and dog house to stay warm, lol. Then I made pizza for dinner, and made some homemade marshmallows- I can't wait to see how they turned out today! I made eggnong flavored and cinnamon roll flavored
Have a great Tuesday!
Last night was girls night and we had dinner at Olive Garden. Dinner was great, but the drama that ensued afterwards is very frustrating. I hate drama!
It appears some have issues with the way it is set up, ie how often we meet and what we do, but won't talk about it. Instead the group is dividing and everyone is talking behind each others backs. Talking to their husbands and then the husbands get into it and start disagreeing.
I get home and called dh who had spent the evening with the husbands and he said he heard there was an "argument" about having girls night 3 weeks in a row. What argument? It was brought up and one or two sentences said and someone purposely changed the topic. Doesn't sound like an argument to me. Just people not wanting discuss what's really on their minds and how they feel!
Sorry, that was my little rant for the morning!
Ugh- I hate drama- sorry stupid stuff happened on a fun evening out!
I can see how 3 weeks in a row would get overwhelming- but seriously- if its too much for you, skip a week or two!
Personally- I would like a girl's night out about once a month- right now its happening like every 4-5 months, if that- well, except for the GTGs with this group
It's hard to keep it going and keep it interesting. We are at the point where some have kids now and others are in school. We are all getting very busy but still want to see each other. We used to meet every week then dropped it down to every other.
Back in Sept, we realized that we weren't really happy with the way things were going. Some of us dreaded going, like myself. We tried to revamp it. We decided to continue with twice a month, but instead of eating at someone's house each time, we changed it to one night a month we go out to dinner and the other night we eat in.
We decided to add in "activities" so we could see each other and hang out but if you didn't feel obligated to go you didn't need too. Well last week we did one of our activities, we went to look at the lights at the Mission Inn. This week was our girls night out. Then because of the holiday we moved forward the dinner in to next week. So it seemed like it was back to stuff. It's not normally ever like that.
It's just come the point where people feel obligated to go every week and every activity we plan. Which I have tried stressing that they shouldn't feel obligated. Come when you can and if you have too much going on, don't feel bad about missing a week.
I'm thinking we should just drop it down to eating out once a month.
morning! yuck on the drama!
did nothing yesterday! stayed in a loved on my girls...today hopefully making a trip to target since its dry out! :-) gotta get all my last outtings done, i go back to work on monday!

Morning!
Last night we spent 2 hrs cleaning in preparation for the appraiser that's coming today for our refi! I'm so excited this day is finally here since it means we're one step closer to saving over $400 a month on our mortgage and the fact that our house has seriously never been this clean before
Today I'm working till noon then heading home to wait for the appraiser. Probably do tacos for dinner and if I have time make our puppy some more homemade dog treats.
Hope it goes well!
Morning. Nothing much over here. Last night just hung out at home with the kids, watched the rain, did some laundry and cleaning.
Today hopefully a trip to target to get something for the gift exchange at work.
My night was okay, but this morning, I woke up sick thanks to hubby
So I didn't get to go out and enjoy this nice dry day. Hopefully tomorrow doesn't rain, because I have a lot to get done before this weekend. Hope everyone has a good night!
