Thursday Poll
Stepping in for Amber today - she's super busy at work!
You have 24 hours completely to yourself (no kids, no spouse), what do you do with it?
And the usual, what are your weekend plans?
Re: Thursday Poll
24 HOURS!!!! OHHHHH!
I would sleep alot! I would read alot. I would eat garbage food and be totally and completely lazy. I would probably feel guilty for not doing something productive but I can ignore guilt for 24 hours!
Weekend plans.... I'm hoping to go See Harry Potter sometime, Saturday morning I need to go for a run since the place I run will be packed because of the car show Saturday night. which we might go up to. Sunday who knows!

24 hours to myself?! WOOHOO!!!!!
I would sleep in, catch up on my DVR, catch up on playing around in Photoshop with the hundreds of pictures i have that need editing. I'd probably find a new recipe to try out, then spend too long (and too much money!) in the grocery store. I'd cook this big elaborate meal for myself and enjoy every bite.
In other words, I'd be completely lazy and unhealthy. Hey, it's only for 24 hours, right? Besides...I know it'll never happen
Weekend plans....spending time with FF since B will be with K this weekend. FF has tractor pulls on Saturday and then possibly going out with his cousin and her husband for sushi Saturday night. I get some "me" time on Sunday when FF goes to work in the morning and before B comes home at 4:00. Looking forward to it! I just might do the "new recipe" thing I mentioned above...but I'll share it with B for dinner
You have 24 hours completely to yourself (no kids, no spouse), what do you do with it? Sleep in, watch some shows on the DVR that DH won't watch, hit the gym, get some Thai food, do some shopping, read a book. When I get bank holidays this is my usual day except I don't always get Thai food:)
And the usual, what are your weekend plans? Tomorrow night is a friend's mini-bach party, I think it's just going out for some drinks but won't be a late night. Saturday is the annual Craft Lager Festival in Manitou Springs, I'm super-excited, we look forward to this every year, but have only made it 2 of the past 4 years due to weddings. Sunday- recover from beer festival, maybe pool time, maybe driving to Castle Rock to hit the outlets.
Unless I have unlimited funds, I wouldn't do anything special with just 24 hours. Probably read a lot.
No special plans this weekend. I do need to work in the yard and clean. Maybe go to the state fair to eat. If the nice weather holds, I'd like to spend some time in my hammock, too.

For 24 hours... I'd sleep in and have a big breakfast! Probably if I had the funds I'd like to go to a nice hotel downtown, sleep in and order room service when I woke up. Go to the pool and relax, maybe the spa and read the rest of the time!
This weekend... long walk is planned, and M's 10 year hs reunion. Still kind of shocked that he wanted to go, but we are going! I have a new dress and I am going to get my hair blownout Saturday afternoon, not sure why I am spending this money or who I think I am trying to impress... I just want an excuse to do something for me before we go. Hopefully Sunday we can relax together!
I would completely pamper myself! I would get some SPA treatments, Read, exercise, probably eat crappy food, Work on some organizational things. (I can't seem to get motivated to do it when C and N are around)
Weekend plans, we are doing a BBQ tomorrow night with a neighbor because his favorite team has their first preseason game. Saturday day clean up around the house. Saturday night we have a babysitter and we are going to an adult only BBQ (I am so excited!!). Sunday we have one of Craig's Co-workers over for a mid afternoon BBQ. Maybe N and I will go to the pool in the morning. My nice summer tan is starting to fade
I'd sleep in, watch TV in bed until I was hungry enough to get up and get dressed. If it was summer I'd probably go down to the beach and swim or read for a little while. If it is winter maybe work on a puzzle in front of our new fireplace. I'd definitely go out and go shopping, though often times I don't end up buying anything but I enjoy looking. Maybe get some food at Panera, or ice cream at Kimballs on the way home. And watch more TV. Oh, and I would definitely have the laptop with me to nest.
I think we're going out to dinner Friday night. Saturday I'm going to a friend's place to meet up with a girl we went to HS with and meeting her 6 month old (absolutely adorable) son. We may go kayaking with one of DH's friends and his GF as well. Sunday I'm supposed to be going to a BBQ but the weather doesn't look good so I'm not sure what will happen with that.
24hrs- I'd probably putz around! Read, eat whatever I want (or not all, I tend to not eat much when I am alone), sew. Bake something!
Weekend- Sat will be cleaning the house, maybe some sewing. Sat evening we are driving to my parents (3+ hrs) where we will spend the night, drop Ty off, then Sunday we will drive to Minneapolis area to visit my SIL and nephew until Tuesday/Wed.

24 hours to myself would probably be spent reading, sleeping and doing beadwork. I barely get to touch my bead projects anymore because I don't want a handsy toddler trying to get into them and with my crazy schedule I can't work on them when she sleeps because I have to sleep sometime too.
This weekend we have no plans and I am loving it because the last 6 weekends or so have had something going on and the next 3 after this one we have stuff to so to relax will be awesome!

One word....SLEEP! My 5 month old doesn't do it so well so mommy is very sleep deprived!
