Good Morning!
Hey everyone, here we are at the start of a new week (well, for those not in the ME)- is it a busy or a quiet one for you?
QOTD: If you could play any sport professionally, which would it be?

Re: Good Morning!
Morning! It is surprisingly gorgeous out today here, so I'm trying to enjoy it while it lasts. This week is insane--just back from a week off with my dad (which was amazing) so now I'll pay for it. Thankfully I'm working from home a few partial days so that will really help.
Also, today is our wedding anniversary, so we'll have a low key celebration tonight.
QOTD: Possibly figure skating (assuming I'd be good). Otherwise, I think tennis looks like a blast.
Good morning! I'm still recovering from jet lag...coming TO europe is so much worse! ugh! But trying to hit the ground running on my thesis project this morning. We'll see how that goes.
ooooh, I'm also having lunch with 2 PFTs on wednesday! I met 2 guys, 1 american and 1 half american half swedish, who are starting at my school! woohoo! I feel like such a loser but I'm SO excited!
QOTD: swimming! I swam competitively for many years and would looooove to swim in the olympics. I was good, but not that good, lol. unfortunately. And unfortunately I was not good enough at ballet to be a professional ballerina either!
Morning! We've got a busy day today. I've got to do some major organizing and I think I might pack up my summer clothes since my wardrobes are overflowing. I'm taking Will to get pictures done later today. I'm not really looking forward to that.
QOTD: Tennis would be fun.
Yes, I did mean for the question to be more like, "what seems like it would be cool/did you find most interesting to watch" more than "what did you actually have a chance at?"
Although for me the answer is the same. I love volleyball and was pretty good in HS, but my college was way too good, so I had no chance to get on the team, and am too short for the position I wanted (I'm only 5'8" and was a hitter in high school, but in college that is short and I'd have to be really good at passing or setting to make the team, which I wasn't).
Good morning!
I'm going running this morning and no plans this afternoon, I can't wait for school to start, I'm bored of being home everyday!
QOTD: figure skating. I love it and miss it.
Morning! Today we have puppy school, this one isn't my favorite...puppy school with a kid tied onto you isn't that easy! This afternoon I have to pick up a few things at the store and I'm going to try making marble brownies.
This evening DH is picking up George so we're also going to have to clean some stuff out of the garage so my car will fit in.
At the moment the rest of the week looks calm but things normally pop up for us throughout the week.
QOTD: I would ride professionally, probably hunters if we moved to the states and Stadium Jumping if we stayed here.
Morning! Ah! The weekend was too short! We had such a lovely weekend! Today is the usual, work and the gym!
QOTD: Tennis looks fun and yoga. I guess I would love to be a yoga guru.
Morning! I'm going shopping this morning, my favorite jewelry store is having a 25% off sale so I'm going to check it out.
QOTD: Beach volleyball or tennis.
Happy Anniversary!
Morning! This is going to be a slow week. DH is on a business trip, leaving me and the baby behind ;-( I have a few things planned, but it still is lonely and boring at home without him.
QOTD: Could laser tag count? I really like it... its kinda sport-ish. Lots of running, teams. Its more of a sport than baseball!
I'm with you soon, H leaves Thursday for 9 days. We also just had a conversation about laser tag this weekend with some friends, my H wants to find a place in London.
Good morning.
This is my third week with no job and I seem to have woken up woken up with a throat infection. Not the best morning,
However the man and I went out to see some fireworks last night and it was great.
QOTD: Hockey (of the ice variety). I love it so much and really miss playing.
Busy day for me. I have a lot of work to finish, and I came in late because I had an eye appointment and went shopping for new glasses. And I really need to go to the gym this afternoon. Oh, and some evening this week I need to cut out of work early and go buy a blonde wig (don't ask).
QOTD: I still have little girl dreams of being a figure skater.
(Just "dreams" because I can barely even skate backwards.)
Honestly, though, I would probably go for the practical side and choose pool or billiards, so that I wouldn't have to worry as much about injuries or aging. Plus, it's a skill that would be useful in a social setting as well.
Thanks! Hope to see you at the 11 Sept g2g?
Morning. The weekend did go too fast! I have to work on our taxes tonight (ugh) and hope to clean the bathroom, though that may be setting my sights too high. Tomorrow I start my prenatal yoga classes, so I'm really excited about that, and I'm setting myself a goal of having our closets cleaned by the end of the week. We'll see how that goes.
QOTD: Gymnast. It was always my favorite sport to watch growing up.
Good morning! It's the last week before I start my new job next Monday, so I am finishing up some organizational projects and getting the house in order to have two people working full time. And Wednesday is DH's birthday, so we are meeting his parents for a celebratory dinner. I have to get his present wrapped before dinner.
QOTD: Like most girls, I wanted to be a gymnast or a figure skater, but I have really always harbored secret dreams of being a luger. But since curling has been an Olympic sport, I have really fallen in love with that. It's my kind of sport, what my Dad calls a "thinking person's game."
Good afternoon!
Today was M's first day of kindergarten! It was only a half day today, tomorrow will be his first full day with lunch and nap at school. He loved it!
My best friend and I are already planning all the things we can do while our boys are at school! Haha!
QOTD: Does SCUBA diver count as a sport? If not then surfer!
The only thing exciting that happened at work today was two hippies were removed from the airport because they refused to put on shoes before they boarded the plane. Such is rural life.
QOTD: Figure Skating because I already did it as a part-time job. I coached for a few years until I broke my ankle. If I had to pick one today, I'd be a professional sailor.
Good morning! Had a good weekend, successfully left the house every day and even socialised a bit. Am pretty exhausted today though.
QODT: I would love to be graceful at all and think being a professional dancer would be amazing - swing dancing is super fun and I'd love to be good at it!
BFP Apr 2012, EDD Dec 19 2012 * twin h/b at 6wk, 9wk scan * Baby A lost at 12wks, Baby B was my rainbow born at 36wks
I have a bunch of laundry to hang up, get the boys' suits ironed and my dress steamed for the wedding tomorrow. Later, we're going out to get DH some new shoes and some new makeup for me.
QOTD: Ice hockey. If I had a choice of teams, it would be for the Detroit Red Wings. I was rocking my Federov jersey yesterday.
Today I have a doctor appointment to get my US perscriptions filled in Spain.
QOTD: probably ice skating or tennis.
