Manic Monday

Best and Worst of your weekend! Go!

Re: Manic Monday

  • Best: We got a lot accomplished this weekend and made a little more headway in the garage. Finally saw Avatar, which was pretty good but not mind blowing. DH helped me make a fabulous meal on Sunday.

    Worst: While replacing a window screen yesterday, we discovered that the large neglected planter we had to move to get to the screen held a beehive.  Fortunately the bees were sleepy and not prone to fighting, so it wasn't a panic situation, although I did get stung once.  I took an antihistimine right off and put a chamomile tea bag on it as a compress, so it's not too bad. It still hurts a bit today though. Sad

  • Best: Getting a lot of Christmas shopping done. Fun bike race on Sunday.

    Worst: Barely seeing DH all weekend, the officials running our race way too short on Sunday. We only raced for 30 minutes, and it should have been 45 minutes. 

  • Best: 2 great client meetings yesterday, sleeping in both days.

    Worst: lots of snafus with Saturday's wedding. They were all out of my control, and I landed on my feet with all of them, but the whole event just had a weird vibe. 

  • Best: My Georgia Southern Eagles beating #1 undefeated Appalacian State and breaking their 26 conference game winning streak. Seeing lots of great friends and being in GEORGIA all weekend :)

    Worst: Going back to Florida on Sunday, being VERY tired today.

  • Best - we got a lot accomplished this weekend. I got some PJ's, a new coat (both desperately needed), Toy Story 3, and some stuff for the house. We got a start on our Christmas shopping and have MIL taken care of.

    Worst - I cleaned out all the clothes that are too big from the bedroom closet and pulled what I could from the upstairs closet. I know that's a good thing, but it's kind of depressing because I hardly have any casual clothes left and we're broke for a while. I've already spent $250 on clothes this month. :( Having to buy new clothes (and I buy cheap stuff on sale, no designer anything!) is really taking a toll on our bank account. It's only going to get worse as I have less and less old stuff to fall back on. Everyone says it's such a great problem, but it's very frustrating when we're already running lean and gearing up for the holidays and vacation.
  •  best - we were SO productive this weekend! I got my 30k tune up and then we ran a brazillion errands on Sat, went to DHs b-day dinner (with Fam) on Fri then a friend's B-day dinner on Sat and we saw MegaMind. Very funny.

    worst - my BR looks like a clothing bomb went off. I foresee a no-fun Mon evening of hanging up clothes + cleaning out the bathroom. We need new rugs. Ick!

  • best: reclaiming our upstairs living room, after getting storage shelves for the man cave so we could put the stuff down there. also spent saturday night breaking out our fire pit, and roasting marshmallows with 2 of our friends....SUCH a great time just hanging out and talking.

    worst: getting all the cleaning done meant no work on the bathroom renovation...and DH got poo on our roof, from his shoe when he got up there to change a floodlight.

     melissa, do you have friends who might have clothes your size they don't wear?

  • I had all good things this weekend. I hung out with friends on Friday. Saturday got some much needed organization done. Sunday was the best though. DH and I bought a much needed sectional sofa, It's our Christmas gift to each other, then we went to see Mumford and Sons. It was fantastic. I'm still excited from the concert.

    *sigh* Nope. I'm the biggest of my friends and am still in the plus sizes. I just watch for the sales and buy only items I need.

    gotcha. maybe with black friday and the holidays coming, there will be some good sales! i know target had a lot of cute plus-sized stuff in the clearance section last week!

  • best: delicious meal at one midtown kitchen on friday nite, going to see Due Date on saturday night

    worst: trying to find a winery on saturday (that we've been to multiple times) and getting lost and not finding it while we had people following our car to get there

  • Best:  our race in Indy!! We had a blast.

    Worst:  my knee aching on Sunday, but it's feeling better now

  • Best: decided to become members of a church on Sunday, then went to Marietta to visit some friends. Returned some stuff at Target Saturday and got an ironing board and containers to organize the linen closet.

    Worst: so much back pain this weekend... had to break out my old back brace on Sunday :( And the ER only gave me 5 days of Darvacet... I stretched it out to 9 days, but am all out now. I really don't want to go to the doctor, especially with my stupid insurance and $50 copay.
