Good Morning!

Morning all!  Derek and I had the house to ourselves last night and it was nice.  It's funny how you have to do things differently when you've got other people in the house (just things like peeing with the bathroom door open, or not having to close the door when you're changing).

I did not, however, get any of the things done yesterday that I'd wanted to.  My foot got sore through the day, likely from the running at baseball on Tuesday, so running was out, and then I was lazy.  No laziness tonight!

How is everyone today?

Re: Good Morning!

  • Good Morning!

    Last night me and DH cooked a yummy breakfast supper and Preston ate a few bites of pancakes. He loved them. I love breakfast supper but we always make a mess so I to give my kitchen a good scrub last night. My BFF let me borrow her shark steam mom to try out I used it in the kitchen and one bathroom. I like it, but I am not sure I would buy one. I also started on a diaper cake for a friend of mine whose shower is the 1st weekend in June. I feel ahead which is great.

    Tonight Is my catch up on laundry night. I have a load of clothes to put up and one load to wash. I am hoping to get caught up on some tv since I have missed everything this week.

  • Good afternoon all.  Had a good start to the day, as I finally managed to force myself out of bed for a morning workout.  DH comes home today after being in Barcelona all week, so looking forward to that.  A friend of ours from school is also arriving today, so just plan on cooking some penna alla vodka for dinner and catching up with him.

  • Morning ladies!

    Taking a quick break from work.  Lastnight, I put together a shoe rack.  Our laundry room was out of control with shoes everywhere. Score, it fits exactly the number of shoes we had in there. I also cooked chicken on the grill. I usually am not the cook, but BBQ was yummy if I must say so myself.

    Today, I am skipping my WW weigh in, I have yet to get back on track but need to badly.  I am starting tracking today in hopes for good results next week.

    Tonight I will do a couple loads of laundry before (hopefully) hitting the sack early.

  • Morning everyone.  Last night, I went out for dinner and drinks with some gfs.  This particular group is all the wives of one of B's close group of friends.  I love that we all get along so well and get together without the guys.  It's been awhile since we got together, so it was great to catch up.  

    Today, is just the usual stuff at work, and then tonight, B and I are going to tackle the large pile of mail we got while we were on vacation.

    Hope everyone has a great day!

  • Good morning! As predicted last night was much like Tuesday night. I watched the Cubs, got in a workout and took it easy. Apparently I was quite exhausted because I fell asleep on the couch watching the Cubs game at around 9. Tonight Kyle is going to a movie. I haven't decided yet if I want to go with or stay at home and take it easy.
  • Good Morning Ladies.

    Last night DH and I watched The Voice from Tuesday and I started the task of looking at every name in the baby name book and writing down my favorites. This is really hard! 

    Tonight, we are going to SIL's house.  BIL is going to replace my brakes and I will get some snuggle time with my niece.

    Have a great day ladies!

    Good morning!  I woke up this morning craving a fruit salad, so it must be almost summer.  This happens to me a lot in the summer months.  So I stopped at Cosi and got one for breakfast and a Break Bar.  I don't know if you have Cosi's where you are, but this thing is freaking awesome - oats, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, pistachios and dried cranberries held together with honey.  Yum!!

    Not much going on today.  The broker who found our new office space is coming by today to see how the remodel went and take me and a co-worker out to lunch, so that will be a fun break.  I love free lunch.

  • I am so looking forward to the weekend, the past few days have been crazy busy and tonight isn't going to be an exception. Yesterday I got home late (@ 5) cleaned the house then had the girl I tutor arrive, went over math for a few hours drove her home and by the time I got home it was almost 10. 

    Today I have to find time to go to the gym. These past few days have been exhausting.

  • Good morning! I woke up this morning to 5-6 inches of wet heavy snow, yuck! I had to go out and shake down all my trees that were laying flat on the ground from the weight of the snow. Is it summer yet??

    Tonight we have J's cousin's rehearsal dinner. The wedding is tomorrow evening, so hopefully the weather will improve soon.

  • Good morning!  I got off to a late start this morning because we were up so late last night.  After work, I went to yoga then stopped by CostCo and CVS on the way home for a few things (H had luckily taken care of the regular grocery shopping earlier in the day - which was hilariously annoying; I had to keep texting him photos of what we needed from work, like our preferred brand of curry paste - maybe it's easier to just go myself!)

    By the time we got home, it was past 9, and then I still had to cook dinner for us, and an extra meal to send to the ILs since FIL is coming home from the hospital today after shoulder replacement surgery.  I made Smitten Kitchen's Mac 'n Cheese and it was soooo ridiculously good.  I also made homemade brownies, but luckily sent almost all of those away to the ILs so I won't be tempted by having them around the house!  When all was said and done, we didn't eat until 11, and we stayed up well past midnight catching up on the Celtics-Miami game on DVR.  H imposed a ban on internet/FB during this time so we wouldn't know who won, lol. Unfortunately, the Celts lost and our post-season is over.  SAD!

    Tonight is gym again, and hopefully home by 8.  Dinner before 9 would be such a luxury!

    Dinner before 9 would be such a luxury!

    That is always a challenge for us as well!

    I'm going to try to pretend to work as much as possible today. Tonight DH and I are going to a Poker Tournament fundraiser for the marketing society I'm a member of. I've got my eye on the prize of 3 bottles of wine and a gift card to a wine bar!

    DH and I use to run a poker night for a bar several years ago. I'm interested to see if I still have any game!

  • Hey guys! We had a talent show this morning that I performed in... I've got social justic club after school today... I cannot wait for it to be Friday. Like. Seriously. I'm definitely running on empty now. I don't think my energy level has been so stretched to this limit in a really long time.
