Good Morning!

Happy Thursday all! 

Holy crap did we ever have a huge storm blow across the province yesterday!  Tornados, severe lightening, torrential rain and winds over 100 km/hr (60mph).  Our area was under tornado warnings so we were advised by the Weather Network to take shelter in the basement, so down we went with our laptops and some blankets.  It would have been nicer if our basement was finished, but at least we were safe!  I don't think we had any tornados touch down near us, but it was pretty intense!

Tonight I'm off to the Jay's game.  Sadly I didn't get a 90's outfit together, although it was fun to think about.  If I was going to the game with a group of friends (and not just my dad) I would have done it for sure.

How is everyone today?

Re: Good Morning!

  • Good morning!

    Enjoy the baseball, raynes.

    Today my BFF is here for a work thing and we are going out for tapas (La Tasca this time).  I am so excited, I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to concentrate on doing any work today.

  • Reba, my book club is going to La Tasca next month--any recs on the best tapas? :D

    Morning, all! Nothing much going on over here; work's abuzz about an aftershock last night, but I didn't feel a thing. And also: Fake Friday! Josh and I are heading down to Florida this weekend. We're getting in early but not letting anyone know so we can have a few moments to ourselves before we have to deal with family. Sad but true.

    Lots of work today, so off to get some done. Hope everyone has a good one!

  • Have fun at the Jays game raynes.  I'm totally jealous.

    Today is my fake Friday and I am so happy for that. I've been exhausted all week and my motivation is so low at work.  Hopefully this four day weekend will help to recharge my batteries - how can I got wrong with wine tasting and pretty chateaus in France?  Lets just hope my rudimentary French skills are enough to get by with.

  • Hey ladies!  I'm just relaxing at home tonight and sorting/editing photos and blogging.  So glad tomorrow's Friday, it's been a crazy week so I'm looking forward to the weekend SO much.

  • Good morning!

    Leo - I love it when you're online in the morning. It's so nice to see you in the room.

    Raynes - the lightning was crazy! Holy moly. We were supposed to have a friend come over for dinner, but he cancelled because there was no way he was driving in for an hour - two with that weather.

    So the dinner we had planned for last night was postponed to tonight, so I have to pick up some stuff for that and tidy up the place. Meh. It's a pretty low key day.

    Have I mentioned that I can't wait to shower tomorrow?Stick out tongue

  • I had a quiet evening last night. I'm still completely exhausted so I spent most of the night reading and relaxing. Tonight I have a committee meeting after work. Then I'm meeting up with a friend for dinner and Top Chef Just Desserts from last night. I'm so happy that some form TC is back on TV again.
  • Raynes - that sucks, glad you guys are ok though, and no tornados.

    Morning ladies.

    Lastnight I went to bed with a migraine,  but woke up feeling refreshed.  I fell asleep pretty early, and woke up at 4:45 am, thats the most sleep I have had in a long time.

    Tonight, I get to finally see DH so I will be spending the evening with him.  I need to talk to him because it appears we might get hit with the Hurricane that is coming up the east coast, so instead of having a "date"day on Saturday, I think we need to get our wood stacked so it doesn't get soaked.  Ugh what a way to ruin plans mother nature.

    Have a great day ladies.

     I am so happy TC is back!

    Tonight is lazy, I'm caught up on everything house wise and want to go for a run and then curl up with DH and relax.

    Aw, thanks!  I'm glad there's at least some overlap in time zones so I can stop in to say hi occasionally.  Soon enough I'll be back in sync!

  • Good morning!

    Last night was uneventful just made Brinner (french toast & bacon) and spent some time uploading the millions of pictures I have on my camera.

    Nothing exciting planned for today just work and yoga. Tonight is my TV night so it should be pretty relaxing,

  • All I have on my agenda for today is some napping. Last night was so hot and sticky that no one in our house slept well. Jackson did a 5 hour stretch this morning, but unfortunately, it was after we already had to be up for the dogs and such. I really wish he'd get with the program of night time sleeping.

    Looks like we'll be getting smacked with the hurricane this weekend as well, so we'll probably try to get some lawn work done tonight and tomorrow so the weekend is cleared up for lounging time. I'm hoping our yard doesn't flood out like it does in big rain storms. There's not a whole lot of grass out there to hold in the water, either. What is up with mother nature this year?

  • Morning Ladies.

    Last night was a low key night at home. We went for a walk, had an easy dinner and then relaxed. I should have done some cleaning but the long walk and snuggle time with DH and pooch was much more fun! Maybe tonight we can get a few things done around the house. 

    Tonight, we have a showing at our condo. Our tenant is moving in early October so we are hoping it goes well.

    Have a great day ladies!

  • Afternoon everyone (except you ladies on the West Coast).  Today has been just nuts.  I'm trying to finish up some contracts before a training seminar this afternoon that will last through the evening and tomorrow.  If I don't have a chance to pop in tomorrow, I hope everyone has a great day and weekend.

  • Good afternoon! I'm having a busy morning at work but it's okay cause it's making the day go by so fast. We're going to an offsite meeting for a bit so by the time I come back it will be after lunch. I just want to go home and lay down for a bit but I'll probably end up doing some laundry. Hope everyone is having a great day!

  • Evening!

    First off, my new mattress is awesome.  I woke up not sore for the first time in weeks this morning.  And then Ed and I broke it in Wink

    Yesterday I got in a 10 mile run in the morning, then met up with my mom for an early birthday lunch.  Then Ed and I went to a minor league baseball game in Manchester, NH.  And had sno-cones AND fried dough...I was pretty excited about that.

    Today I had to work, finishing getting our school action plan done and plan the presentation to the staff.  Then I caught up with some faculty I hadn't seen in awhile, and then Ed met me and we went to Panera for a late lunch.  I was supposed to have the night to myself, so I came home and ran, but Ed's golf night got cancelled because of storms, so he is on the way home.  Not sure what we will do for dinner now....
