TGI (long weekend) Friday!
Good morning ladies! What is everyone up to this weekend?
I have a bunch of errands to run this afternoon because the office is closing early, but then it's vacation for a week! We have a music festival thing on Sunday and might take the little dude to Story Land on Monday.
Happy Friday! 
Re: TGI (long weekend) Friday!
I think it's going to be a quiet day in the office. I have some big paperwork out for review, so that could change.
Tonight: date night at home, I hope. MH has been at happy hours the last couple of Fridays that have lasted until 9:00 or 10:00 and I would like a Friday night with him again!
Tomorrow: Errands and then it's time for a little budget forensics. I've got to figure out whether we spent more than expected this summer because Matt was out of school and we had time to spend with friends again or if we're being too undisciplined. Ugh. Then spending the night at my aunt's house to check in on the cats and use the grill.
Sunday: Keeping myself entertained while MH studies. I'll probably go shopping and then do my norm activities of bake, work out, read, etc.
Monday: breakfast with friends. Not sure after that - all depends on MH's workload.
Not too much craziness planned for this weekend.
Saturday- DH is helping my sister move (he's a saint) and I'm going shopping with a friend. Saturday night, DH and I have an anniversary date in the North End.
Sunday & Monday- nothing officially planned... my parents want to swing by at some point but that's about it.
Sounds like peeps have some fun activities-- including relaxing!-- going on this weekend.
I went to the gym this morning and ran some errands. I am hopefully going to Richard's Restaurant in Brunswick tonight with MH and my 2nd husband (our little joke, since the three of us spend so much time hanging out). Then maybe a driveway fire at our neighbour's for a couple hours.
I have to to work 12 hour shifts tomorrow and Sunday (strangely, I don't mind working this weekend-- either my job is so new or I just like it enough). But Monday will be a fun day to just relax with some folks who work the M-F gig. I don't work again until Wednesday...
Guess that's it! What a beautiful day it is today!
Happy Friday everyone!
MH is off until Wednesday! He has been traveling alot for work lately so it is nice to have some extra time with him!
Today - We are getting new tires for our truck (Yikes! expensive much?!) then taking DD swimming, or atleast to put her feet in and take pictures of her in the water!
Saturday - Going to MIL house for a cookout. It is usually an ok time, plus she doesn't see DD all that often so I know she really looks forward to us visiting.
Sunday & Monday - no plans made yet. Maybe getting together with friends for a cookout.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
YAY Weekend!
This afternoon - Meeting with the lowes guys to get the final things situated so we can order our cabinets & get moving on our kitchen renovation!
Tomorrow - My mom and her husband will be in Bangor so we are going up there to have dinner with them.
Sunday - Meeting with one of my sorority sisters that I haven't seen in a long time. Get together with one of my HS friends that will be up from Mass.
Monday - House project or two, starting to clear out our kitchen to prep for demo!
Tonight: Snuggles with Abe and doing laundry so I don't have to do it later.
Tomorrow: My sister and Cate are coming to visit! Catie starts kindergarten next Tuesday...crazy.
Sunday: Birthday party for my brother in the afternoon. Maybe a photoshoot in the evening if the weather cooperates.
Monday: A whole lotta nothing!
Mmm, we love Richards! My favorite is jagerschnitzel with red cabbage and spaetzle. Das gefallt mir sehr!
We don't have much planned this weekend. I'd like to get a swim day in if it's warm enough. Maybe a play date tomorrow morning. Dinner with mom and nana tonight...not sure where we'll go yet. Mostly just relaxing and doing some stuff around the house.
Hoping my weekend goes better than it's started. I got in a fender bender this morning
I was behind an old guy who started pulling out and then he decided to go in reverse "because I changed my mind" WTF? No matter what though it's my fault. No real damage, just a little cosmetic on my behalf and his bumper dropped and only need to be pinned back up but UGH! My day was going awesome too. Luckily, DD wasn't in the car.
Tonight - think a boat ride and dinner at the marina. DH gets home early so may run up to Shaw's and get shopping done.
Tomorrow- Some things around the house in the am and then in the afternoon we're going out for some serious fishing :P
Sunday - Lazy day. Going up to Shaw's Ridge with the IL's for some ice cream.
Monday - may go up to cousins camp or just go boating again. Mostly just enjoying the last little bit of Summer!
Today- I am working. Attempting to send off my research proposal to the IRB for approval in the next two weeks. I waiting for three things from my Co-PI and she's on the West Coast. I hate waiting.
We are off to Boston tonight with some friends. Spending the weekend there. Not sure what we have planned- because everything is up in the air which is okay by me.
Monday- catch up on house work. Sew my crib skirt and attempt to clean out the closet in the baby's room.
This week Kailey and Brooke headed back to school, so Lily and I have had a few really fun "Mummy Lily Days" Today we both went for haircuts, and ran errands. Trying to squeeze it all in before she starts Pre-K on Tuesday. Working tonight, and Brookie's first soccer practice.
Tomorrow Kailey and I head back to the salon so she can have feather extensions put in. Then we're going to Mom and Dads for the day and visiting with my nephew, I can't wait to see my little man!!
Working both Sunday and Monday, then all three girls head to school on Tuesday.....and I'm sure I'll be a wreck seeing my baby get on the school bus!!
ahh, the weekend! I actually had today off and am working tomorrow. Very much enjoyed running around without a kiddo in tow!
Tomorrow: MH's friend is coming into town tonight, so they'll be hanging with Abby while I work. Out to the buzz cafe for dinner.
Sunday: BBQ at our house hopefully before it rains!
Monday: no plans yet, maybe some shopping!??!!
Monday I have to work. Which is nice when I have to use one less vacation day at the end of the month but not so nice now.
So glad for Friday!!
Tonight I'm going to take T and head down the street to hang out with a friend for a bit. Then Daddy will bring Subway home for dinner
Tomorrow I'm taking T to Bangor to visit my parents and I want to get a visit in with Komett (our horse, which I'm excited for T to play with him too!). My dad is home and doesn't get to see T often so it will be nice. Trying to get in touch with my BFF. I feel so out of her loop, like I don't know what is going on her life. Hoping to see her tomorrow.
Sunday--getting groceries and cleaning. laying low...or might take T to Great Pond. that sounds like way more fun.
Monday--if I dont get things done sunday, I'll be doing them Monday
No official plans...worked today, but my boss is in a bit of a funk since his new long-distance boyfriend just left to go home to Chicago, so he took us for mid-day manicures and pedicures, so that was a nice unexpected treat! Hoping to do something tonight, since I'm working Sunday and Monday...
Tomorrow DH and I are going to a beer festival, which should be good...otherwise, I'm planning on doing some relaxing since we have had non-stop visitors this summer.
Hope everyone enjoys the beautiful weather and long weekend, if you get one
Tomorrow and Sunday: Six Flags New England YAY!! Just DH and I and my best friend/MOH/boys' godmother Casey... I can't wait!
Monday: not sure what doing something with the boys outside of the house to give the ILs a chance to relax since they are watching them all weekend.
Today we went to York's Wild Kingdom with a friend and her daughter. Then I had a much overdue hair appointment and went grocery shopping. Eli's only nap was the 40 min ride home from York and he was a terror in the store. Gah!
Tomorrow my best friend and her BF are coming to visit for the weekend. Not sure what will do, maybe go to OOB or just hang out at home. Tomorrow night a friend from college and her DH are coming over too, so it will be fun for everyone to hang out.
No plans Monday. DH is working, but Eli and I will find some fun!
I got out early yesterday from work. I went to Browne Trading to pick up a small thing of caviar for DH. He's been wanting to try it and because he never picked a time to celebrate Fathers Day AND he's been extra good about having daddy-duty while I've had so many dance rehearsals, I treated him to it. James got picked up and after some fingerpainting, I proceeded to try to fall asleep while PBS babysat my child.
Today I've got the grocery store and lots of house cleaning to do. The place is el shithole. Don't know if we'll get out to do anything else, which is too bad since today is the money day of the weekend.
Tomorrow I might do a local bellydance workshop and/or a cookout at a local friends' house.
DH wants to fit gym time in there too... not sure how that's all going to get scheduled. I need to work on costumes for the show and you know, spend some time with my little one.
Monday I've got another rehearsal with my duet partner at 11 downtown. Otherwise, it's another mellow day! Maybe I'll see if I can convince DH to let me sleep in on of the days.
