Good Morning!

How was everyone's weekend?

Friday I stuffed myself so full of sushi I couldn't sit comfortably for hours.  It was amazing.

Saturday was such a glorious day I went out and mowed the law.  It took 2 passes on the front yard to get it looking somewhat respectable, it was getting so tall.  Then Derek and I went out to dinner and to see Thor.  All I can say is yum.  Thor is one hot god of thunder.

Yesterday we did some things around the house, I finally got in a workout, and then took my mom to dinner.  It was lovely.

We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

Re: Good Morning!

  • The weekend was pretty awesome...

    So Friday a friend of mine who works at a school that I interviewed at heard that I may or may not have to worry about interviewing anymore (as in pretty sure you got hired)

    Saturday was really really difficult, it would have been the triplets 6 month birthday. 

    Sunday though was awesome, DH and I went to Great America, and we rode everything within about 1.5hrs. So we went to go eat at Rain Forest Cafe. Then I got my big surprise. Our Daisy Mae, she is a goldendoodle mix with a poodle (fabulous for my allergies) and perfect for Sully to play with. In fact right now they are running around in the back yard like crazy.

    This week I should be finding out either way  if I got a position at a school or not. However right now I kinda feel like I have a little stomach bug, but hopefully that'll go away soon.

  • Good morning!

    Busy busy busy... we had prenatal class all weekend which was actually kind of fun. V got a bit of gardening done, we bought a stroller and carseat (first baby purchases! Well, unless you count the house...) and had dinner with my family for Mother's Day. 

    I'm exhausted. 

    Yippee for beautiful weather today!

  • MO - you'll have to post pics of Daisy Mae!  Sounds like her and Sully are a good mix.  And sending vibes that the job comes through!

    I had a pretty good weekend too.  Went out to dinner with friends on Friday and stuffed ourselves on yummy mexican food and margaritas.  DH flew out to Barcelona for work on Saturday, so I had some quiet time and then dinner with a friend.  Sunday I was supposed to go to pilates, but totally bailed because of a wicked headache.  Luckily that went away later and I had a chance to call and chat with my mom, as well as tidy up around the flat.

    Hi!  We're back from Vermont.  It is simple gorgeous up there.  We had a nice weekend basically disconnected from everything - no t.v. and no cell service.  We had wi-fi at the Inn, but pretty much stayed off. We took huge, long walks and found our first out of state letterbox.  We took a ton of pictures and I'll get them posted so you can see them.

    I have my annual check-up today, so I haven't gone to work yet.  I think I am supposed to have blood work, which means I can't eat anything and I am starving.

  • Good morning! We also had a good weekend. Friday we got everything ready for the farmer's market on Saturday morning. Saturday we got up early and went to the market. The weather was ok. It was nice while we were setting up but then it started pouring rain. After that it cleared up and didn't really rain anymore but was incredibly windy. We spent much of the time holding onto our tent just in case. My mom got into town just before the market was over. After the market, I went to a Kentucky Derby party. Then we took Kyle's mom out to dinner and met up with some friends.

    Sunday I spent the day hanging out with my mom. We went to church together and then my brother and I took her out to lunch. Then we had everyone back to my house to hang out. My brother stuck around until about 7 last night. As much fun as this weekend was, I'm kind of excited to be back at work and to have the evenings to myself. 

  • My weekend was just okay.  I had to work both Saturday and Sunday and was on call both nights.  Work was busy and I got about 4 calls each night which took extensive problem solving

    My reward is today and tomorrow off work!  I'm just getting ready to head out for an 11 miler.  I do have to run in to work at some point to drop off the on call bag.  I also have an eye doctor appointment and massage.  Somewhere in the next few days I need to also get an oil change (WAY over due) and start cleaning my house hardcore.

  • Good morning! My weekend was pretty great too. Phil and I took a huge, long walk around the city on Saturday, which was so nice. Plus I got to do it with bubble tea in hand!

    I love it when bubble tea season starts!

    My IBS flared up quite badly in the wee hours of this morning, so I booked the day off, but it seems to have settled a bit (I'm still glad I booked the day off) so I'm going to go out to the fruit markets and get some berries. I'm thinking of going vegan this week, just to see how my body reacts to it. Hopefully, it won't be a disaster!

  • My weekend was good. Even better that it was a 3-day weekend.

    Friday we finally got into the bank to set up a refi. We managed to knock another 5 years off the mortgage, lowered the interest rate, and our payments are actually going to be cheaper than they are now. Bonus! Just hoping all goes well with appraisal so the numbers match up right. We also cleaned the house from top to bottom to prep for a party on Saturday

    Saturday was my bday, so we had people over and then lounged the rest of the night. I went to a bonfire super late at my aunt's house, but it was a post-prom party for my cousin, so I bailed out early. I tried to stay and keep the adults company, but I couldn't handle the teen fest fever. 

    Sunday DH got me a whole bunch of flowers for mother's day and we did brunch with all of my aunts and grandmother. That was fun, not to mention delicious. Last night we hung out at the in-laws so DH could go in the hot tub after painting the ceiling and trim in the baby's room all afternoon. We also squeezed in an impromptu nap yesterday afternoon and I had a nice long chat with my dad. I haven't talked to him in months. 

    Good weekend overall, but I'm still exhausted today. I hate Mondays.

  • Good morning everyone.  B and I got back last night.  Our trip was amazing, and I will try to post some pics later this evening.  Of all the places we visited, Venice was probably my favorite.

    Ciara, congrats on Edmund.  He's adorable.

    Dora, congrats on the new job! 

    Blender, congrats on BFP.

    What else did I miss?

  • Good Morning ladies!

    I had a great weekend.  Friday night DH, the boys and I went to a friends house for a little while.  I think Christian might have a GF. Ha ha.

    DH worked all weekend, so Saturday the boys and I ran errands, played in the grass for a little while, and did some cleaning. Once the boys were in bed, I did a better job of baby proofing around the open stairway and tv area.

    Sunday the boys and I went and visited my dad and Gram, then came home and all napped together. OMG that was so needed and it felt great.

    Have a great day ladies!

  • Good Morning ladies!

    I had a great weekend.

    Friday night was pretty low key since I have been sick.

    Saturday I went shopping with MIL, SIL and my niece for Mother's Day and we had a BBQ complete with bean bag toss.

    Sunday, DH and I had a relaxing day of watching movies and he also got me a beautiful necklace with our birthstones and an October birthstone.

    This morning I woke up to the loudest thunder ever and a very scared dog following me everywhere. 

    Now it's back to work and a hopefully productive week getting some house work done.

  • This weekend was quite delightful. It mostly involved relaxing.

    Saturday DH and I went to the movies and watched Thor. Like Raynes said Thor is one sexy thunder God. Pretty good movie. That evening we went to the IL's and I cooked dinner as my MIL hurt her back recently and I thought that a nice dinner was the least I could do. We also brought some flowers for Mothers Day.

    Yesterday we just chilled most of they day watched a few movies. It was good.

    Sunday me and the kids had lunch with my mom and grandmother.

  • Good morning ladies!

    I had a very exausting weekend. Saturday I spent it cleaning the house and catching up on some other chores. Sunday I had gigs pretty much all weekend for Mother's Day. What made it even worst was that I got sick yesterday. Oh well, on the bright side school is over this week.

  • We didn't do a whole lot this weekend. Saturdy we worked on my truck, he's having issues starting lately, did our errands and went to the greenhouse for some flowers. Sunday we laid around and semi cleaned the house.

    DH and I agreed we should be a little more active, so he's agreed to try jogging after work with me. We'll see how this works out.

  • It was a great but busy weekend here.  We headed up to my parents' hometown.  Ed and I went and saw Thor on Friday night, Saturday night I ended up hanging out with two of my best friends from high school, and Sunday was a family day with my parents...My brother is moving to Montana tomorrow so it was a celebration to celebrate his move, my BFP, and Mother's Day, so we made lobster!  Whoo hoo!

    The only downside was that I did a couple of runs this weekend and my foot started hurting again.  It looks like I'll probably be out for my half in June...boo!  I'm not quite giving up hope...taking yesterday and today off and I'll see how it goes tomorrow...but I am thinking a doctor's visit is in order..
