...here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
I carry your heart(I carry it in my heart)

Any big plans for the weekend?
Thought Id ask so that I can live through you all. LMAO!
I have two huge exams on Saturday, so I'll be studying (again) all night tonight and tomorrow. Saturday Im in school from 10am - 3:30pm.
Sunday is my "cook big or go home" day (though its always like that at my house. lol) - I do a huge meal, and some kind of baked goodness.
*Im obsessed with cooking and baking, by the way.
So glad Fall is here so that I can turn the oven on again! Im hoping to go apple picking next weekend so I can crank out my pies, turnovers, breads, apple sauce, apple butter, etc.

Re: Any big plans for the weekend?
Oh how I miss my "cook big or go home" weekends!! I'm lucky if I get an hour to cook something, and baking as been sadly missed.
We are leaving bright and early tomorrow morning for a wedding in Rochester, NY. Its our first flight with Freddie, so hopefully it goes well! Our weekend is going to be full of wedding activities and birthday parties! I'm excited and hopefully we'll get to relax a little at some point!
I'm really excited to get dressed up. I got an awesome dress and am getting my hair done! woo hoo! Plus, we're going to give Freddie his first hair cut! oh my.
Alisha, good luck on your exam. And Liz, have fun!
We're going to Ikea again on Saturday (though I'll probably just have DH go with his dad since they have a bigger car anyway). Then hopefully finish hanging up our new blinds, it's taken us a long time to get around to it; maybe put together DH's new dresser. Maybe.
Sunday morning is wide open, so I'm trying to convince DH to go apple picking on LI. Sunday afternoon is my sister and her FI's surprise engagement party at my parents' house (it seemed easier than a restaurant), for which I'm super excited. We told them we're getting together to celebrate my parents' wedding anniversary, which was yesterday.
Have a great weekend!

I find that cooking and baking really helps me to relieve stress. So, sometimes - when it has gotten really stressful, I've baked banana breads and various things at like 3am. LOL. I hope I always find the time to do it, so much fun.
Have a great time at the wedding!
Thank you! IKEA eh? That place can be addictive. I try not to go unless I really have to, otherwise I walk out of there with a million things I dont even really need.
Lucky you, you get to go apple picking. Ive never gone out in LI though, I always go upstate. I had no idea there were orchards out east.
Have fun at the engagement party. sounds like its going to be a great time.
It's a 3 day weekend for me!
Friday, I'll probably relax. I've been getting tired and have been told not to drink caffeine.
Saturday, My bathroom is finally getting renovated! I'll put up a picture.
Sunday, I hope we can do something, but we usually wait to see if we're invited anywhere. Otherwise a movie and out to eat.
Monday, I'm going to try to make a lunch date.

Nothing terribly exciting happening this weekend over here. =/
Tomorrow night I have my bi-weekly "baby" check up (this I am excited about...I get to see my peanut on screen) and then straight from there I am going to a Pokeno party at Joey's cousin's house.
Sat, Sun and Mon (off for Columbus day) we have absolutely nothing planned, so I guess we will just wing it.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
Sounds like some good stuff ladies! Tomorrow night we're both working late, we had to give up tickets to a play.
So we'll probably just grab dinner and head home.
Saturday morning H has to go to the DMV to get his motorcycle license (woe is me). Then we head to Secaucus for contract signing of our new townhouse if we can agree on a contract. Then maybe heading to JC/Hoboken to visit friends for dinner.
Sunday H has to work on a big freelance project, so I'll probably just hang and do some of my own work.
Monday we have off and I am so excited to see my best friend who will be in town for the day. woohoo!
Saturday I have class and then I will go home and do some school work. At night I am having dinner with friends.
Sunday I am going apple picking (yay!) Then I will do school work at night.
Monday is laundry, more work, a meeting and then the Jets game.
Nothing too big planned, as I cracked a bone in my foot when I stumbled last Saturday while I was in Orldando with my sister. I am trying to stay off of it as much as possible, but I can never sit still for too long.
Tonight is our usual take-out and DVD night.
Tomorrow DH works, so I will do as little as possible and sit in my yard soaking up a bit of that glorious sunshine that's predicted.
Sunday, I will probably go over my son's house to see the kids. Have all sorts of goodies for them from Universal Studios.
Monday, it's back to work as the NYSE is open. But DH is off (union job). I just might let the alarm ring just a bitt longer in the morning...hee hee....
Enjoy your week-end ladies!
OMG, that sounds painful. I hope you get better soon.
My husband is also in a union job and is off on Monday too. Im so jealous. I plan on making tons of noise while getting ready for work! LOLOL
