Re: Wake up people!

  • I don't really have anything specific I'm looking forward to about this week.  This weekend we are heading to GR on Saturday to run some errands and get new running shoes for me. 
  • ::chugs coffee::

    I'm on and off, but here for the moment!  And excited for some nice weather, we have outside projects to do at the house and may finally get some nice weather for them :)

    I'm looking forward to getting the house cleaned up with the windows open this week!  Nick should also have the walls up in the shower and ready for tile this weekend.  I can't wait to have my bathroom back!  I might finally get some impatiens in my window boxes and some planters in my front yard too. I've really been slacking this year on curb appeal.

    Oh!  I hope to have our new king size bed set up this week/end too.  I'm really excited to see what the bedding looks like all put together.

    I'm going to Gleek Retreat, a conference for West Michigan bloggers. I'm so excited! I hear the swag bags are going to be amazing.
  • I'm looking forward to Friday!  We are headed up to Mackinac Island!  I have mapped out the bike route we will take, the times I want to take the ferry and where I want to eat. 

    Saturday is my HS reunion.  My husband is looking forward to this...I'm not sure why.

    I'm happy that the weather is going to be nice...it would be a bit of a bummer to be on the island while it was raining.

    Can you post a review of this next week?  I was thinking of going, but it didn't work out for now.

  • Friday I'm picking up and planing my flowers for the front of the house and window boxes.   TH has a race in Angola, IN on Sat, I'll probably drive down there and hang out with them for the afternoon/evening.  Then back to working on the deck Sunday.  Man, that deck is going to be so nice but thinking maybe we didn't anticipate just how huge it was going to be. Katie and I fell in love with an awesome patio set last Sat.....hoping the price comes down a bit in the next month or so, never realized how expensive those things could be. Indifferent
  • We've been wanting to buy a deck set since we moved into our house.  I just haven't found one that I loved for the price.

    Me too - I think we will sit on cheesy camp chairs until they go on clearance at the end of summer.  We're classy like that lol

  • I am looking forward to hearing back about the house soon.

    We finally got some news that there is a BPO scheduled on the house for today at 1:00.  That hopefully means the process is rolling and we should hear something shortly (fingers crossed.)

    My chunky monkey turned 4 months last week and had his 4 month check up yesterday.  He weighs an ounce shy of 17 lbs and is almost 26" long.  Big Smile

  • I'm looking forward to trying out a new brewery this week and also getting a tour of Founders brewery from the owner - with some beer discounts too on Saturday. 

    And if the weather is nice, I'm looking forward to enjoying it!

    Will do! I meet with the planners as part of our West Michigan blogger group (shameless plug: see our FaceBook page http://www.facebook.com/#!/wmiblogs ) and they were saying that the swag bags as of last week are officially worth more than the registration cost. Some of these ladies are amazing, making serious dough. And just fun to hang out with.

    Not entirely sure yet. My b-day is Saturday and another friends is Sunday so we usually combine the two. I think we might just grill out, drink up and lay low. I'm not sure if DH is thinking of anything for me? We shall see. 

    Any idea's on how one should spend 30th + 1 Birthday?

    Happy early birthday!  I think your plans sound really nice.  I love just chilling with friends like that.

    I'm looking forward to a road trip! Wedding in North Carolina over the weekend, followed by visiting friends in Virginia later in the week. Yahoo! Even though it means tons of stress at work this week, trying to work ahead on some deadline stuff, I'm excited to be going somewhere.

    Yay!  I love trips.  We'll be doing that next weekend.
