What is on the agenda for today?
QOTD: What do you like about Autumn? Do you have any cool plans for this season?
Re: Good Morning!!
I have another job interview this morning. I have been going on a lot lately and I hope something works out for me soon. However, I usually have the same experience that LadyMadrid had yesterday.
QOTD: I am excited for the weather to get cool and I can start to wear my new clothes. I am also excited to decorate my house this weekend for Halloween even though my DH thinks I am a bit crazy for wanting to do it so early. And I also want to start to do some serious baking.
GL on the interview dulcemaria!
Today I am mildly cranky because I had my bout of insomnia last night and now I have to be awake to go to the anesthesiologist and DH couldn't find his keys this morning. He didn't look very hard because they were in my purse right on top! Oh, well. I'm just a whiner today, don't mind me!
QOTD: I am excited for everything about Fall minus the possibility of rain. The cooler temperatures, breaking out scarves, sleeping with a blanket instead of with the windows open and dying of heat. Yeah, mostly the temperature change I think! I am in need of it this year.
My plans for this season include hanging out with my mom a ton when she gets here, preparing for this baby, giving birth to this baby, and then never sleeping again. :P Oh, there will also be some type of Thanksgiving celebration in there since my parents will both be here. Fun!
Good luck with the interview dulcemaria! Hope something works out soon.
Should be a busy day at work since i have a deliverable tomorrow. Also we have a leaving lunch for a coworker going on maternity, so I'm going to have to put on a smile while everybody talks about babies for a few hours. DH is out of town for a few days, so I'll probably go to the gym and have a late dinner this evening.
QOTD: I love the fall fashions, I just unfortunately don't own the cute clothes or know how to wear them properly! I also love the changing colors and the leaves. I don't really have any cool plans for the fall.
Cecilia arrived 12 October 2012
Morning!
QOTD: I love the changing colours in the trees and that crisp air on sunny days. We're going to Rome for a few days so that's the cool plans part of it. Hopefully we can also get away for a weekend somewhere quiet and nature-y.
Morning!
We've already been swimming today, E managed to sneeze and put her face in the water! She was fine, no crying at all
The rest of the day is going to be dedicated to getting things ready for our vacation, leaving on Sat!!
QOTD: I love the colors. I dont' love the weather though
Morning, I just got done making a batch of pumpkin spice creamer (it's not that great, more pumpkin next time). Seems a bit silly since we are having an Indian Summer but I'm just about ready for fall. Not much else going on today, H and I are going to try out one of the oldest vegetarian restaurant in London.
QOTD: Everything! The colors, football, apples, wearing sweatshirts, boots, caramel apples.... No plans yet, we will probably spend a lot of time in the park near our house, it's beautiful when the leaves change. I think I'm going to the US in November but haven't booked anything yet.
Good morning! Nothing special going on today for me. Just work and then seriously need to clean the apartment a bit this evening.
QOTD: I love fall fashion, especially boots! I moved to the UK in July, and I couldn't carry all of my stuff on the plane, so I left some of my Fall/Winter clothing with my mom. She's coming in 2 weeks with the suitcase and I cannot wait!
ETA: Oh and my plans. My mom is visiting me here for the first time, so we're both very excited. We're going to go shopping for my veil and other bridal attire accessories (I already have my dress) and do some touristy stuff together including my first real Afternoon Tea!
Morning!
Just got home from a run and then coffee with a friend.
Cleaning a bit this afternoon.
QOTD: I hate fall. It's my least favourite season, but I guess it's unavoidable!
This fall I'm looking forward to going away during the G20. We're looking into going to the mountains for a few days.
Morning!
QOTD: I love the changing colours in the trees and that crisp air on sunny days. We're going to Rome for a few days so that's the cool plans part of it. Hopefully we can also get away for a weekend somewhere quiet and nature-y to enjoy all the changing colours & the crisp fresh air.
Hello! We just got back from playgroup and now Georgia is napping and I'm doing a little cleaning. Depending on how long she naps, we'll probably go to the library for a play/music time they have. I am thinking of doing some baking tonight, when it cools off.
QOTD: I love the baking and cooking. Pumpkin, nutmeg, etc. I also love the leaves changing colors. Mmmm....
Hello!
I'm working this evening. I've got some short ribs in the crock pot (I just discovered crock pots and a good butcher!) and DH and I are going to have short ribs with polenta and a salad when I finish work. Thursday is our 'Survivor' night, so we always share a bottle of wine, have a nice dinner, and then watch 'Survivor'.
QOTD: I love the leaves. I really missed fall when I was living in Australia. That and Winter are my favourite seasons. Our plans for this season are a bike ride this weekend and I'm going to Belgium to see New Order. For the bike ride, we are going to leave Frankfurt and head towards Bavaria and see how far we can go in two days and then take the train back. For Belgium, I'm kind of bummed out about that. DH got tickets for New Order (my favourite band) and we were going to do a week away in Belgium. Now he can't go because of work. The tickets are for my b-day. So I'm going to go alone. I feel like a loser, but on the other hand I'm looking forward to going away alone. I think it will be relaxing.
