Manic Monday
best and worst parts...go!
Re: Manic Monday
Best: deep sea fishin with the hubs- he was SO excited to catch something edible (even though we didn't eat it b/c I am a fish snob)
Worst: Working a majority of the weekend. AND going back out on Sunday to the gulfstream to try and bring home some Dolphin only to get 5 miles off shore and have our neighbor tell us he has to be back home in a hour...uh, dude, it takes atleast 30 min to get back to the inlet and then another 20 or so to our canal...WTF. Hubs was SO dissapointed that he really didn't even get a chance to fish yesterday.
best: Gave Dad Avatar and Wall-E on BR and then we went to see Toy Story 3 yesterday evening. It was great! And DH got his Peachtree # in too! He's in the top 7000!
worst: DH and I visited FIL this weekend - he's back home at his own house but he can no longer be left "unattended" at all and his family down there decided DH was fit enough to watch him solo this weekend (FIL usually has a night nurse and a daily handler with him at all times). He's just bad. DH and I are thinking he exhibits more ALS symptoms than his diagnosis, but WTF do we know, right? We're just the over-educated city slickers.
Call me Kat =^..^=
Best- Spending time with my dad whom I don't get to see as often as I would like.
Worst- nothing stands out.
Best - Umm... it was a weekend? I'd say the highlight was spending time with friends Saturday afternoon.
Worst - having a terrible migraine that caused me to leave work early on Friday in tears. How embarrassing! Of course it would hit me just days after giving my neurologist a glowing report. However, I might be closer to figuring out a trigger. It just might be allergies as I had run out of OTC Zyrtec, which I had been taking daily since early this spring. Plus, I don't think I was taking the it yet the last time I had a migraine. Hmm... It was weird though that I seem to always get them on Friday afternoons. Maybe it's allergies + a week of eye strain. Who knows!
Best: Not really a standout weekend. I watched a lot of movies on the new TV with the new huge cable package. Got a lot of organizing done in the bedroom on Saturday.
Worst: Mother Nature starting her visit early Sunday morning, and making all day Sunday suck. (today so far too)
best - brunch of sat for father's day, spending time at the pool, dh winning his hockey game against his old team
worst - my face looks like a lobster =( and feeling like i may be getting a sinus infection.
Best - spending time with BF's family all weekend. BF's brother brought his baby son with him, so we all got to spend time with him. We all gave his parents gifts for their birthdays, plus their anniversary and Father's Day. Then they all surprised me by getting together to buy me a birthday/housewarming gift - a Samsung Blu Ray player! I was so surprised and grateful, it was such an awesome present.
Worst - AF showing up and making me miserable.
Best: Had an amazing dinner yesterday and got to spend some good, quality time with BF before the chaos of moving sets in!
Worst: Father's Day....I lost my Dad unexpectedly in Feb., so it was a rather rough day not being able to talk to him.
awww,

Martinilove I'm sorry about your Dad.
Best: Silversun Pickups show Saturday night! Followed by my homemade bbq and fresh berry pie sunday
Worst: Nothing really stands out. It was a good weekend.
Best: Beautiful wedding on Saturday and very happy clients at the end of the day.
Worst: There was an awful, awful accident on Peachtree Street right in front of the church while the ceremony was going on. My assistants heard tires squeeling, then heard a crash, and a woman screaming. They ran outside and a lady driving a 4Runner had slammed into the back of a woman riding a scooter. She was laying in the road and her husband was standing there sobbing as the EMTs did CPR. It was a horrible scene and the woman died. I can't get over the irony of the situation. My couple was in the church - happiest day of their lives, getting married. This other couple was right outside the church - worst day of their lives, whole world turned upside down. I am just so sad about it.
Best: Having a good bike race yesterday and getting to hang out with my teammates all day. Having Clemson ice cream; best ice cream in the world!
Worst: Having a headache on Friday and part of Sat. My MRI is Wed.

How terrible.
Martinilove, so sorry about your dad, I can't imagine.
OMG that is just horrific!
Martini, I'm sorry about your Dad!
How terrible. So tragic.
Martinlove, I'm sorry about your dad.
Best: All weekend was really great. We laid at home Friday. Went to the rodeo Saturday. Spent yesterday with family in the pool. It was a fun weekend.
Worst: My lovely, spastastic colon flared up at the IL's house. My stomach was hurting really badly so I barely ate any lunch. But my meds work pretty quickly.
Martinlove, I'm so sorry for your loss.
Amy, wow. That is so sad. Did the couple know about it?
P&R - It's very nice of them to get you a blu-ray layer. I'm sorry, I had to LOL since you were just telling me the other day that you didn't own any DVD's. At least DH has movies you can watch.
Best: Brunch at South City Kitchen with DH, SIL, LO, and my parents.
Worst: Not getting our car. We had better get it this week!
Yes, BF told them what to get me, and I'm not 100% sure there wasn't a little bit of self interest in his gift selection.
The minute we got home he immediately took it out of the box and hooked it up and put Star Wars in. It looked SO purty on my high def tv in blu ray.
Martinilove - I'm so sorry about your dad (((hugs)))
Amy - ugh that makes me almost sick to my stomach to think about. I can't imagine what that family must be going through
Best: finally fencing in our garden so that the rabbits will stop eating our squash blossoms (yeah, my weekend was *that* good)
Worst: nothing really bad happened, it was a so-so kinda weekend.

OMG, that's horrible! I can't even imagine and to try and carry out your wedding knowing that just happened, must've been hard for the couple too. So sad....
Thanks for the hugs ladies...I appreciate it and am having a better day today!
The accident was pretty well cleaned up and they had taken the woman away by ambulance by the time my clients were exiting the church after photos. They were aware that there was an accident, but at the time we did not give them any details. They may know now what happened, but I don't think they did on Saturday, unless someone else told them.
Best: The Hubs and I played Wii pretty much all day together on Sunday. We rarely have days like that.
Worst: Our A/C is still out, but we are in the waiting line for a new one.
Oh hell naw.
Best: DH was off Friday and Saturday. We got to do normal things for once, go out to dinner with friends, went to a Braves game.
Worst: Finding out on Friday night that DH is going to Mississippi for a week starting on Sunday for class.
best: shopping with an old friend and meeting a new one, getting indian food, and pool time
worst: getting hit on at the pool again b/c i was alone, getting sunburned
