Re: Week in Review and Weekend Plans
Highlight of your week?
3 days off - and my super duper massage/body scrub combo thing-y! Awesome, awesome, awesome! I still took E to daycare everyday - but we had some nice mellow mornings (she watched Saved By the Bell w/ me!) and I picked her up early every day - so we got to play! And, I got to go shopping for my living room and take my time and really look at things.
Lowlight of your week?
Back to work yesterday and not getting home until 6:30. I like picking up DD @ 5 so much better - she's so much happier and fun!
Weekend plans? Tomorrow - decorate Easter Eggs w/ MIL and nieces, then birthday dinner w/ my parents and sister. Sunday - church and lunch w/ ILs for Easter.
I need to get a few more things for DH's Easter basket - hopefully do that tonight/today.
I also need to meal plan and shop for the week. .. no idea when that will happen.
Highlight of your week? seeing Water for Elephants last night - it was fabulous!
Lowlight of your week? Um getting up early this morning. Blah.
Weekend plans? I'm heading down to St. Michaels today to spend the weekend at my parents - hang out, bug my mom, see their in-progress dock, let doggies test the water, that kind of thing. Then we'll go to church on sunday and have Easter dinner. H is running some trail race in PA tomorrow so he'll come down after that, so I'm on my own with the doggies in the car today (Jackson is a PITA in the car, he gets so anxious, poor guy.)
Highlight--going back to the gym...sounds cheesy, but it was WONDERFUL
Lowlight--not being completely healed yet after the delivery, even though it has been 6 weeks...I guess I was expecting to be ok by now. That and some family members are driving me CRAZY to the point where I don't even want to associate with them anymore.
Weekend Plans:
Friday--nothing...cleaning maybe
Saturday--gym, clothes shopping, getting Colby easter basket stuff, more cleaning
Sunday--going to my parents house and to DH's cousin's house.
Highlight: Passover Seder at my aunt's. Always one of the most special nights of the year.
Lowlight: Tie between dealing with a particularly difficult partner early in the week and the diaper I changed this morning. If we're friends on FB, you might have read about the latter already....
Weekend plans:
Tonight - Hopefully decompressing a little.
Tomorrow - Meeting with a financial planner and then DH is working a little on our built in bookshelves with the master carpenter neighbor who's agreed to make them for us!!
Sunday - Easter at another aunt's with my dad's side of the family.

BFP#2 1/12/12 ~ Missed M/C 8w2d
Highlight: Like 30 minutes ago! I read on TB that Target had a swing priced for well below the regular price and I got one. Feeling a little guilty but that will pass..ha ha If anyone is looking for a swing, let me know and I will share!
Lowlight: Dealing with my drama with my father
Weekend plans:
Tonight - some laundry, cleaning
Tomorrow - We are supposed to meet family at the Zoo in the morning for their Easter thing--hopeing the rain holds off. Then putting Ava down for a nap and I'm going to the mall...ALONE!! Dying eggs at night.
Sunday - Church, nap and then my mom and step-dad are coming over for dinner. I just heard it's supposed to be nice weather which is great!
Highlight: Getting new carpet yesterday!! I LOVE it!!
Lowlight: Developing sciatic pain. This is NOT fun at all, but now that I know what it is, I am finding ways to manage it.
Weekend Plans
Today: Work, then dinner at our friends' house with them and their kids
Saturday: Ikea with my parents to buy a dresser for the baby's room, cleaning/organizing at home
