I hate Mondays..oh wait...
Now I hate Tuesdays. I do NOT want to go back to work.
This weekend we didn't really do much. We went out with some friends, saw Hangover 2, hung out with my grandparents and made them dinner and yesterday went to a parade and had a cookout with family.
How was your weekend??
Re: I hate Mondays..oh wait...
This morning was ROUGH! And today and tomorrow are going to be very busy at work..somehow I'm going to tough it out
I didn't get to the beach like I wanted to this weekend, instead me and DH did lots of yardwork and got our backyard ready for summer. We took out the patio set, hosed it down, cleaned off the concrete patio that was all yucky from winter, and did some planting. It was LOTS of FUN in the HEAT!! hahaha
We used our BBQ for the first time this summer, though, which is always good. I made some flank steak on Sun and turkey burgers yesterday. Everything's better on the grill! We saw Hangover 2 also, and we didn't love it. We both felt like it was pretty much the first movie, just in a different location! Kinda lame.
I went to a photograph class with my girlfriends on Saturday, which was awesome! I posted some pics to my FB page if you want to see. I'm curious what our photographer friends around here think of them (jeni, dayzchic)
Don't know if I'll make it today!!!
This past weekend was super crazy busy, from the bachelorette on Friday, Errands and party prep on Saturday, Prepping the yard for the cookout early Sunday and the wedding Sunday night, and finally, the cookout on Monday - in 101 degree heat...phew!
I ate and drank a lot this weekend, and now I need a few days to recover from the weekend - LOL...I can make it through the day...I just have to keep telling myself that :-)
Yeah I am with you on this one. I am just exhausted and so not ready to be here!
We had a nice weekend. Saturday was by BFF's birthday party in NYC, which was insanley fun.
Sunday we went to the local parade and hung out at friends all day drinking and BBQing. It was really nice and relaxing.
Yesterday DH and I did some shopping, went out to breakfast and lounged in the backyard. Last night we went to the drive in movie theater and saw Hangover II and Bridesmaids. We had a great time and it was something different for date night!
My weekend was grand! We went to Omaha Friday night. Although, I was disappointed that when we got to the steakhouse in between us and Omaha that we always hit up on the way there had a 30 minute wait, so we just grabbed some junk in a drive-through instead...sad. Saturday we went to the Old Market (downtown Omaha) to have lunch with my sister at a new brewery. It was awesome. Then Jeff, my sister and I went to Wicked. Get this...he liked it. But he did say that it was like Six Flags...fun, but he's good for a few years now. Haha. I, of course, loved it. I seriously bawl the entire time because I'm so happy/excited! I didn't remember a lot of the storyline from the first time, so it was fun seeing it again. That night my sister's family came out to my grandparents for supper, so I got to hold baby Eve a lot. Then the same on Sunday while Jeff, my BIL and uncles all went golfing. Unfortunately, it was too cloudy and cold to get out on the boat. Then headed home that evening.
Monday I got up at 7 am to start working on the downstairs spare room. For the last year you basically couldn't even walk in there because it was a "storage" room. I am happy to say that I have it all cleaned out, organized (along with the actual storage closet under the stairs), and the new furniture (a super huge, amazing brand new model of an air mattress that is designed to be up all the time, two small little side table/book shelves, then two larger bookcases). It looks so good! I can't wait to get all of the finishing touches on it tonight. Of course, now you can't walk through our hallway because of all the empty boxes that need to be broken down and taken to the recycle bins. : )
We will see how today goes for me. They are announcing to the other offices about my boss. Could be a long day with a lot of questions.
Waking up this morning was ROUGH!!!
My weekend was great!!! We were at the lake with my brother, his gf, my cousin and another friend from Fri-Mon. When we got there Friday it was POURING and the power was out. So we did what anyone would do....started drinking! Let me just say I was in rare form Friday night lol. Saturday we relaxed and enjoyed the weather and went on a happy hour cruise. Sunday we went to the water park where I got FRIED. Monday we packed up and came home.

April Nesties March siggy challenge: Next Vacation, Anguilla!!
Yeah sign me up to join the "I ate and drank too much and slept too little" party. We spent pretty much all day yesterday traveling which always takes it out of me, so I was very pissed at my alarm clock this weekend.
It was soooo worth it though! We went to Ohio for DH's 10 year high school reunion which was a blast. Then on Sunday their town has a huge parade that goes right in front of his parents' house, so we had a party there. Tons of fun. I was sad to leave but ready to get back into the swing of real life.
I worked my a$$ off this weekend so I'm exhausted!! Friday I had off so I ran errand with DH, planted our garden, helped our elderly neighbor put in an air conditioner wall unit, and did a few other things outside.
Saturday, we got up early to go pick up my sister and bring her to my house. My parents and brother also came over. The girls were doing some yardwork while the guys were ripping out carpet and installing a hardwood floor in our exercise room.
Sunday, was a continuation of Saturday.
Monday, I was on my own in cleaning up the mess from the weekend
So not ready to be here!

This weekend was VERY relaxing! I only have 3 days this week until my weekend begins again, so I have A LOT to take care of! Friday we went out for country dance lessons only to find we were the only ones there because of the holiday, so we headed to a local country bar for about an hour or so and watched the old folks show us how it's done! My maternity session on Saturday went well and DH was a few inches away from a hole in one at his golf game - he was so amped when he returned home! Sunday I had an incredible family session and afterwards went to the pool with DH for a little bit to relax. After that we came home and enjoyed dinner and the movie Tangled. Yesterday I spent doing NOTHING...it was great! I laid on the couch and read a book, then crocheted, then ate, then crocheted, then slept, then watched some tv, then ate, then went to bed. It was amazing!

I'm probably the only one who was looking forward to the weekend being over, because I want time to fly by. I didn't do much this weekend because I had to take it easy. On Saturday we met some friends for dinner at Joe's Crab Shack which opened up near us... it was so good, but DH ate so much he was groaning during the car ride home.
Sunday we went to DH's cousins party. It was a joint party for the older one that just graduated college and the younger one that was just confirmed. It was nice but I felt like we were there forever, and it was on Long Island so it took us an hour and 20 minutes to get home.
Yesterday - just caught up on grocery shopping and laundry. We went for a little walk but it was too hot to go far (I'm still supposed to be taking it easy/not exercising).
I'm a little late to the game!
Friday evening was a chill night with DH...dinner in front of the tv.
Saturday...woke up...went for an early lunch then got my hair cut while DH went shopping at Lowes. Then we went shopping for a couple of plants to fill in the gaps that were left by plants that didn't come back this year in our flower bed. Then home to hide from the heat. We were going to look for a new AC unit for our bedroom but luckily ours started to work correctly before we took the plunge!
Sunday DH took me out shopping for clothes. This was for my bday present (my bday was a month ago)....I just kept procrastinating because I am not feeling all that great about clothes shopping right now. Anyways...it was awesome...I got so many fun things for the summer. After all of that...we went to my mom's and helped her with her AC and then went grocery shopping and grilled for dinner.
Monday I went to the parade in my town with a friend and went to her place for a cookout...then home to relax in the AC since I got too much sun during th day!
The common theme of my weekend...AC...I am such a baby when it comes to heat!
