Re: How was your weekend?
Highs - Did some around the house organizing projects and went to brunch with friends.
Lows - Missed knitting and did not get as much done as I would have liked.
Eat/Make anything good - I had eggs with smoked salmon and dill with creme fraiche, grits and buttermilk biscuits at Victoria Gastro pub on Sunday .
TV - We are watching Misfits on hulu (It's a British show).
Loving the cooler weather, I just wish it were sunny instead of overcast.
Going to Pgh for the Annual Give a Cheer charity event in honor of my BIL who died 3 years ago. It benefits USA Cares.
ETA: DD is now 36 weeks 1 day, so she has spent almost as much time out in the world and she did "in". (She was born at 36w2d).
Happy Anniversary Carrie!
Highs? Got a lot done around the house on Saturday. Picked up a chair from my parents on Sunday and I'm glad to have that.
Lows? DH wasn't feeling well on Saturday and he laid in bed all day. It annoys me when he just lays around all day, even when he has a good reason. I know it's not fair of me to be annoyed. DS was up once on Friday night, once on Saturday night, and pretty much all night last night. No bueno.
Eat/make anything good? Not really
Watch anything good? Not really
Loving or hating the cooler weather? Love it!! But I'm not sure how to dress DS...
What are you looking forward to this week? Nothing really
Any comments, FFCs, vents, boasts, etc? I'm sure there are some, but I'm too tired to think of any.
BFP#1: 01/10, M/C 6w -- BFP#2: 06/10, M/C 5w -- BFP#3: 09/10, DS born June 1, 2011
BFP#4: 07/12, M/C 5w3d -- BFP#5: 12/12, EDD 08/18/13
Decorate This
Lows? I did cardio Saturday night, a short run yesterday, walked around all day yesterday, and now my legs are so sore I can barely move.
Eat/make anything good? I indulged in fried pickles, hush puppies, ribbon fries, and pizza at RennFest. The pickles were to die for. I washed it all down with Beestings - 3/4 hard cider and 1/4 honey mead.
Watch anything good? Some trashy tv - RHONJ and Tough Love Miami lol
Loving or hating the cooler weather? It's a little too cold too quick but I'm ok with it. The end of this week should be nice.
What are you looking forward to this week? A four day work week then going to New Orleans on Saturday!
Any comments, FFCs, vents, boasts, etc? I have made a committment to myself to workout every day this week (Saturday-Saturday). I'm headed to the gym soon so I will be 3/3. I'm determined.
Highs - DH was in a good mood all weekend! I was also pretty productive and got all of our laundry done (6 loads...ummm, yeahhh) plus we cleaned quite a bit and hung/moved some pictures around. Had QT with lots of differnt people over the weekend and it was all grand!
Lows - Our spare room still looks like a bomb went off. Oh, and I wasn't overly pleased with the therapist I saw on Friday. I think I'm going to call the office and switch to one of the other providers there.
Eat/Make anything good - tried a new Italian place out for lunch yesterday and it had great pizza
Watch anything good - Caught up on Jimmy Fallon from last week and The Soup was pretty funny this weekend too
Loving or hating the cooler weather? We've had the windows open since Friday and it's so cold in the house but we both love it!
What are you looking forward to this week? as of now, nothing...but that's a good thing! I haven't had many open days on the calendar lately so I like seeing that there's nothing going on
Any comments, FFCs, vents, boasts, etc? I need to start back at the gym. When DH was diagnosed, I had so many things going on that came with it. I'm still losing weight...but stress related, not workout related.
Highs? I had an awesome weekend! Friday: girly trip to the mall with a friend I hadn't seen in forever, a visit with my cousin and an adults-only double-date night with our friends. Saturday we spent all day at the renfest with old friends I haven't seen in forever. I even got to see MrsRemy and her family! DD was utterly blown away by the experience and got to meet a band that she loves. And Sunday was an awesome lazy day aside from the trip to the gym I forced myself to take. Phenomenal; all of it.
Lows? The rain put a damper on our faire experience. I desperately wanted to stay through Pub Sing but I was wet and freezing and just couldn't do it, so we left around 5:30.
Eat/make anything good? At faire: Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Fried Oreos, Crab Dip and Soup in a Bread Bowl (after the rain hit). I also dug my beef tips burritos at La Tolteca yesterday.
Watch anything good? Last night I watched Dexter and Homeland and enjoyed both!
Loving or hating the cooler weather? I'm generally indifferent, though I was bummed on Saturday.
What are you looking forward to this week? Ugh, nothing. I have a follow-up with my ortho to see if my stupid foot is healed yet and a court date related to the accident back in March.
Any comments, FFCs, vents, boasts, etc? Boast: I am ridiculously proud of a blog post I wrote late last week and the traffic it's brought to my blog has been surprising.
Highs? I had a great weekend and really enjoyed the relaxation time. We did nothing yesterday and it felt great.
Lows? I'm not ready for this cold weather yet. It happened too quickly.
Eat/make anything good? Not really.
Watch anything good? I liked the new show Revenge.
Loving or hating the cooler weather? I'm not happy with it because it's too cold too soon and of course I'm sick of the rain. I think I need to get some new clothes and be a bit more prepared before I'm accepting of it.
What are you looking forward to this week? Having a long weekend with DH.
Any comments, FFCs, vents, boasts, etc? I'm enjoying my time at home. I'm sure I will get bored after awhile but right now not having to do work or have the stress of my boss is great.
