Weekend Plans
I'm up early with Sam, so I might as well get this party started!
Today: work, pick Sam up from daycare, drop her with my sister so that I can go to my therapy appointment, pick Chris up from work, run to Target, and get in a run/brisk walk before the sun sets.
Saturday: yoga in the morning, dropping Sam off at my mom's, then taking Freya to get her nails done, and while Chris takes Loki to get bathed, I'm bringing Freya to our house so I can give her a bath. Yay puppy time!
Sunday: Absolutely nothing, but rumor has it we might be getting together with some friends to finish Deadwood once and for all.
All in all, a pretty laid back weekend, and I'm perfectly OK with this.
Re: Weekend Plans
I have nothing planned for the next few weekends and it feels fantastic!
I plan on sleeping in as much as possible. Anakin had a rough week and hurt his back which left me up all night with him most of the week. I'm looking forward to making up for some lost time. I'm exhausted!
Today: work and grocery shopping
Sat: Seeing my BFF who is up from NC and is 6 mos pregnant. Possibly going to the beach.
Sunday: Breakfast and a movie
In no particular order:
- finish painting kitchen/entry/hall/closet/living room
- paint trim for all above listed rooms
- pick up and paint/stain new first floor doors
- go grocery shopping
- do my homework
It's certainly going to be a busy couple days.
Happy Friday!!
Today: trudging through work, taking a break to run to a few stores during my lunch break for supplies for tomorrow. A relaxing little cookout with friends tonight on their newly completed patio.
Tomorrow: what started off as having just a couple or two over for a swim at our place has spiraled into a full-on pool party. Currently the invite list is at 15 people
It will be tons of fun, for sure, but there will be quite a bit of rushing around tonight and tomorrow to get everything ready. I guess this is what happens when you have a pool and the weather is going 89 and sunny!
Sunday: cleaning up from the party, then packing a picnic and hopping on our friends boat. Heading over to the Lake Erie Islands for the day, is going to be such a blast.
I will probably be a sun drenched, dehydrated, exhausted mess on Monday, but that's the price I'll pay for the fun ahead!
We have a pretty busy/fun weekend planned.
Tonight- My nephew's 3rd birthday party.
Tomorrow- My BFF's engagement party. I can't wait, it's going to be so fun.
Sunday- a picnic with my family and then relaxing.
:Blog:
Today - Probably cleaning up the house and maybe running a couple errands. We need to go pick out some shrubs and plants for the front yard....we just had people tear everything out yesterday, so it's naked!
Tomorrow - Going to dinner in DC with another couple and then seeing Wicked! I can't believe I've never seen it before. I'm excited!
Sunday - No idea! Maybe a pedicure....it's getting too difficult for me to paint my own toes!

Morning everyone!
Today: working then getting started on finishing the many little projects around the house before August 6th. We are finally having our first cookout at our place so I have a ton of work to do.
Tomorrow: Because of the storms last week, my race was postponed until Saturday, and since the doc gave me the ok to run, I am going to give it my all
Sunday: Might go to the last day of summerfest in Milwaukee but thats about it
Sigh. I dont even know.
My parents invited us to go to the cabin, but Andy's brother is supposed to come finish our electrical work and hopefully I have a kitchen light again.
Tonight: Hopefully BIL comes over and I'll probably get takeout somewhere since I cant see to cook and he's going to putzing around the kitchen anyway.
Saturday: I have no idea what I'm going to do, I'm banished from the house so Andy can paint and my parents are OOT.
Sunday: See above.
Today - Freaking out. Jon got the job that he wanted, negotiated for more money and more vacation time and he's psyched. The offer was way better than he expected and he'll be so much happier. AHHH!!!
Tonight - Going out for drinks for Jon's cousin's birthday
Tomorrow - gym, groceries, house-y stuff and then going to visit friends and their new baby
Sunday - go watch Jon's softball game, then I guess we're going down to Portsmouth where some of his friends are on vacation. That should be fun
OH! So much fun! You'll love it.
Tonight- Friday ritual, grocery shopping and Chipotle, then bathing our dog
Saturday- Sleeping in, lunch date at Cheesecake Factory, then home to watch Harry Potter Movies, fireworks on the waterfront
Sunday- Sleeping in, snugglin my dog, watching more Harry Potter movies and maybe seeing Larry Crowne
Stand up for something you believe in.
Today: Just getting through the work day. I have 4 meetings :::sigh::
Saturday: Full day ( 9-5) Childbirth class. I "was" looking forward to it until we found out that there's a 95% chance we may know another couple that is going and they are people we really don't get along with. Sure, we can keep our distance but I am just going to feel their eyes on us the whole time!
Sunday: Putting together the baby's dresser and finally organizing her clothes.
Dx: Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism After 2 years TTC & failed IUs,we have our IVF baby born 9/24/11
LO#2 aka 'Miracle Baby' Orig. EDD= 9/28 EDD moved to 10/3/13

I loved loved Wicked when I saw it on Broadway. Even Patrick enjoyed it and he's not usually one to enjoy that kind of stuff.
I don't have a set schedule but here are things that I'll be doing: making a box pillow for Olive, starting to run again, deep cleaning my house, and watching Horrible Bosses.
Today: I feel awful today, I've already fallen *and* spilled my coffee (separate events). But soon I will head down to CT to practice the carillon to prepare for a concert I'm playing in on the 28th (that I completely forgot about until Wednesday, oops) and grab a bunch of things I left at my parents' house. No plans for the evening yet, but I think Clint wants to go to the drive-in some time this weekend.
Saturday: no plans whatsoever! Most of our friends are away this weekend too. We may head over to my college for their carillon concert series.
Sunday: I'm thinking church. And no other plans again. Maybe if I'm feeling better (likely) we'll take a day trip- Sturbridge or Newport or something.
Today: enjoying my last judge free day before chaos ensues in my courtroom next week. Tonight, my mom and stepdad are coming in so we'll have dinner and ten I'm going with my mom to set up for my cousin's bridal shower.
Saturday: helping mom with shower stuff and going to said shower at 1:30 and then we have a birthday party downtown at night so it's going to be busy but fun day.
Sunday: hopefully relax a little bit and we'll probably hang out with the bff's and grill in the afternoon/evening.
At some point this weekend I'm supposed to do the mountain of laundry that is flowing from my hamper and bake cupcakes but I don't know if wither of those things will happen.
Another busy weekend..blah
Today: I have to have a physical in order for the Dr to give me my mingraine meds and then we have couples game night
Tomorrow: if its nice we want to hit up the pool for a little while and then we are having dinner and going to the drive in for H's brothers bday
Sunday: H is having work done on his car and I am going to try and go to the outlets and to lunch with a friend I haven't sen in awhile.
Tonight - dinner at BBW, then home. Guy is super tired today because he kept getting calls about work dramz last night when he was trying to sleep.
Tomorrow - deep cleaning my house, moving out old dryer to make room for the new one being delivered on Tuesday. Then dinner with a friend and going to see Guys and Dolls, which I'm super excited about because it's my favorite musical ever.
Sunday - nada.
Today: working from home, quiet night.
Tomorrow: CT for a wedding, what my friends and I are now calling the "big fat italian wedding". There are going to be 350 people there....this is one of my friends I grew up with, and I'm so happy for her, but the wedding has gotten out of control. Should be entertaining.
Sunday: hopefully getting back at a reasonable hour to relax and prepare for my first full week of work next week in I don't know how long.
