Re: Manic Monday

today - work til whenever, take marta to the thrashers game
tomorrow - work at least 8 hours
sunday - work at least 8 hours - hopefully get out in time to make it to my 6pm church service
what i wrote was exactly what i did...except i got to leave work at 4:30 on sunday!
Best - sat out by the pool with DH yesterday, the weather was great.
Worst - baby had a high fever yesterday and it continued through the night, we may have a tooth soon. I woke up with a sore throat today.
Best: Fun nights with friends, winning 3rd place in my mountain bike race yesterday
Worst: Not having enough time to get everything done that I wanted to.
Tonight: Cook out at the house w/friends, run errands, straighten house if there is time
We wound up going to a friend's house to cook out, and I ran errands.
Tomorrow: Volunteer charity activity, bike ride, DVR catch up, grocery shopping, birthday party Pasta Fest for a friend
I wound up not volunteering for the charity activity as they already had enough people. I rode my bike and went to Publix. We went to the bday party, but my DVR is still full.
Sunday: Bike race, DH will be at home working on finishing up some stuff in our "project" bathroom, flopping on couch b/c I'll be exhausted
DH did NOTHING on the bathroom (gggrrr!!!). I went to the bike race.

My Nest Bio and Cycling Advice
best - shopping @ the Famrer's Market was great! we met my parents there and then had lunch with them. Now my mom wants to go back and bring her dogs next time. On Sun A.M. we saw Hanna ($6 tix) - it wasn't bad.
worst - ZOMG the termites flying around the square! They were everywhere! Including down my dress!!! I dropped coffee grounds on the carpet this morning. Figured out one of our wall plugs is dead.
today - lunch with Mom, then DH and I might go see Hanna @ the theater tonight. We're trying really hard to be "good" financially this month. We dined with our friends. NOT cheap.
tomorrow - the Ma Sq market sounds like fun. We could use some decent veggies and whatnot. DH wants to go shopping for a TV. And clothes. And he really does need a new wedding band (damn skinny ass man). However, see above for the lessened spending plan. Does not compute. No wedding band
. He did buy clothes. Running clothes. online. no TV yet! Thankfully...
Sun - nada planned. If its nice we'd like to go hang out by the pool. Nope. No pool time yet. We ate with the ILs and found out their pool is open - depending on how crowded/busy our complex is, we may keep going to their neighborhood pool. I swear we use it more than the people who live there! It was always empty last summer, which is why we always went there.
Call me Kat =^..^=
Friday: Instead of South City we went to Publik draft house, something more low key.
Saturday: I did go shopping, I spent way to much, but I got some great deals. My BIL birthday was fun. We went to an art opening for street art and out to some bars.
Sunday: The bridal shower was fun, the hockey game = sadness
So all in all my plans did work out.
Tonight: Date night going to South city Kitchen. A lot of the restaurants in Midtown are doing a fixed 3 course dinner for 25 dollars per person
Saturday: going shopping in Dawsonville and then celebrating my BIL birthday
Sunday: I have a Bridal shower and going to a Hockey game.Best - hanging out with friends on Sunday afternoon and finishing the last load of laundry last night (all laundry from a week-long trip done in under 24 hrs is an accomplishment!).
Worst - our flight home was rough at first. I'd never felt a plane drop and move side-to-side so suddenly before. I don't like roller coasters, so I hated that feeling! Waking up this morning was rough. I actually said "oh, no way!" when the alarm went off, haha.
best: dinner at Feast...so yummy
worst: DH has been a bit grumpy lately including this past weekend
today: lunch and maybe shopping with my mom in roswell and visiting my grandmother; pizza in the evening with DH
check
Saturday: i might check out the marietta farmer's market; dinner in Decatur I think
we skipped the farmer's market and went to perimeter mall to meet up with a friend. but we did go to dinner at Feast in Decatur
sunday: mall to pick up some stuff; groceries
we went to the mall on saturday. so, we ended up meeting FIL at the avenue at forsyth and then grocery shopping
Adventures of A Girl and Her Apron
I didn't post my plans for the weekend on Friday because they were ever so exciting...
Worst: DH had surgery on his achilles on Friday, so the weekend was all recovery.
Best: Driving with the top down on Sunday and cruising around all by myself listening to my favorite music.
Best: went to my first MLB game and had a really good time
Worst: even though I applied sunscreen I still got burnt
My Wedding Bio
Ooh, I like this new twist, but I forgot to post on Friday.
Best: Braves opening day, Bobby throwing out the first pitch, buying a bike on Sunday
Worst: waiting until 8 on Sunday night to start doing school work
Best: The farmers market was great, and overall had a lot more fun than was originally planned.
Worst: Finding some termites swarming on some older wood near the house. I'm collecting quotes
Friday: Relax at home, probably watch a movie - We ended up going to the Tilted Kilt with a couple we're friends with. I don't really like that place, but we had a good time.
Saturday: Go to the market at Marietta Square, usual Saturday chores
Sunday: church and relax.
Best: The farmers market was great, and overall had a lot more fun than was originally planned.
Worst: Finding some termites swarming on some older wood near the house. I'm collecting quotes for service, and to see if there's any house damage.
Friday: Relax at home, probably watch a movie - We ended up going to the Tilted Kilt with a couple we're friends with. I don't really like that place, but we had a good time.
Saturday: Go to the market at Marietta Square, usual Saturday chores - Yep and yep, and we had chines for dinner
Sunday: church and relax. - We got an invite for an impromtu bbq in the afternoon at the house of the same couple we went to dinner with on Friday. It was fun, except DH's ex-GF was there. She's in the same general social circle so we see her on a semi-regular basis. She's married to someone else and harmless, I just don't like her on principle. We would not be friends if we met under difference cirmcumstances.
**edited becuase the Nest posted before I was done typing**
best: spending sunday at the national...the masters was so fun, and we got to see several players on the holes we sat at/walked around.
worst: IT. WAS. HOT.
tonight: dinner with DH, then probably watching despicable me
tomorrow: DH wants to get his hair cut, and then packing and driving to augusta
sunday: going to the final round of the masters! so so excited, it's so fun...plus, i love checking out all the masters gear in the pro shops.
we didn't watch the movie, and DH didn't make it to great clips. but other than that...right on
