DH is traveling for work this weekend so I'm hanging out by myself :-(
I'm working all week.
Tonight I am headed out to downtown Ann Arbor for a birthday dinner for one of my neighbors!
Tomorrow-Thursday i'm finishing getting all of our crap out of our apartment so that we can finally turn in the keys and be done with it! I'm also hoping to finish up a quilt for a friend of a friend.
Friday- "Dinner Club" at a neighbors house
Saturday- A half birthday party at another friends house.
It's looking like it's going to be a busy week!
Serendipity3, South Beach, Miami, FL 2012
pretty standard week here- trying to keep up with housework, try to do some fun things with the boys, blah blah blah
I tried my hand at making pickles last night- trying them tonight to see if they worked. I'm hoping to make some strawberry jam today and freezing a ton of strawberries too.
Stalking our cacoons to try to see our butterflies emerge.
Wishing I was closer to home this week since it's my neices 2nd birthday and I miss her. And one of my bffs twins are turning one next week and their party is this weekend- I really wanted to go but it just doesn't work out for me to go, unless I fly and that's just not in the bank!
Getting back to it- my diet and exercise blog
Losing it...Without Losing it
Today is our 2-year anniversary! I don't think we're doing anything until the weekend though. Other than trying to clean up from my nieces' visit this weekend:
Today is yoga and then I have to make a meal plan. Tues I have to go grocery shopping. I think that's it.
ANOTHER eye appointment today - I hope this one turns out OK and they stop making me worry about my vision.
Our cat turns 6 on Wednesday -
My first Zumba class on Thursday!
Hopefully the dealership will call at some point this week and tell me to bring my car in so they can fix it. I HATE not having a radio!
Sorry if I missed this, but what is going on? What are they saying? I hope everything works out well!
Standard week for me: work, gym, repeat
My mom's in town & statying at my brothers in white lake so i anticipate several trips out that way for hang out for the night.

What is this all about?? Are you going somewhere for it or do you have a DVD at home? I would LOVE something like this.
*also -- I hope you're not waiting too much longer!**
I'm also curious about this. Rob&Jenn, I have the NYC Ballet Workout DVD and I love it. It has beginner and advanced discs in the set.

Which dress? I bought a maxi dress at the outlet last weekend. It is the first one I have ever purchased. I don't know why, but I tend to feel silly in them when I try them on. I bought this one anyway to see if I could get over it. The price was good and it was comfy.
I got it on Amazon, there's a link and review in my blog post.

That's the one Jess found for me and the one I want, but I want it in the green flowered print that they don't have online anymore. I'm praying they have it in the store.
