Good morning!

Happy Thanksgiving to the Canadian ladies!

On Friday after work I finally went to a doctor since this cold just won't go away. I found out that I have a sinus infection, strep throat, and "severe" allergies. I'm now on some prescriptions and will hopefully be back to normal in no time.

Saturday we had the farmer's market in the morning. It was a gorgeous day so I enjoyed sitting outside. After the market I took it easy. Yesterday I was feeling a bit better and tackled cleaning the house. I got quite a bit of cleaning done, as well as 4 loads of laundry. Then I made some butternut squash soup. Yum!

How is everyone else?

Re: Good morning!

  • Good morning!

    abarber- Get some good rest and hope you start feeling better in no time.

    This weekend was a bit crazy! Saturday was our friends wedding and everything went well. We succesfully delivered their cake with some very minor issues which was my main concern. The only only thing that happened was that when we were placing the cake on the table it got a small smudge on a corner, but we were able to fix it. The wedding was really nice and everyone had a good time.

    Yesterday we just stayed home and caught up with some homework and house chores.

  • Dora, I'm glad to hear the wedding went well (and the cake delivery!).

    Amie, feel better soon!

    Very low key weekend over here. On Saturday I did some clutter control in our bedroom for the new bed's arrival today, hit the gym, and made some cookie dough. Sunday I ran with my running group, baked the cookies, and then just relaxed for the day. I took a two hour nap in the afternoon and it was awesome.

    Now I'm just getting some reading done for a work assignment. Have a great one, ladies!

  • Good morning, ladies.

    Today is my daughter's 21st birthday!!  Happy Birthday, Catie.

    No holiday here - we don't get Columbus Day.  Just another Monday, and still closing the books for September and third quarter.

    Have a great day, everyone!

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    Saturday I got out for my long run (8.25 miles) and it felt great but yesterday I was too exhausted to do anything.  After work we went to DH's grandma's for dinner.  She always does a candy hunt for the grandchildren (the youngest is in their 20's) and I walked away (ran away) with 31 snack size candies like peanut butter cups and caramilk.  Yeah, I'm 33 and I run around the backyard yelling 'candy, candy, candy!'  Too much running too soon after dinner almost led to a puking, though.  But now I have candy!

    Today I'm going to get out for a run and then for for a walk with my friend and her dog and enjoy the weather.  Making tuna cakes for dinner and then going to our friend's house to watch the season finale of Breaking Bad.

    Abarber - feel better.

    My weekend was great.  I got to do some shopping by myself, which was very relaxing. Nothing like a little retail therapy.  I then did a power clean in the kitchen while the boys napped and DH started stacking wood.

    Sunday was a lazy day. I stayed in pj's all day, hung with the boys, and ended up with a migraine at the end of the day. I was in bed pretty early.

    Today lots of work to do, and then heading to Sam's Club for a diaper run.

    Have a great day!

  • Morning everyone.

    Amie, glad you got some medication, and hopefully you'll be feeling better in no time.

     This weekend was kinda blah.  Friday to Saturday was Yom Kippur, and we went to SIL's for break the fast dinner.  Going to her house is like extra BC, as her kids are just bratty beyond belief.  There's nothing like trying to eat while a toddler and kindergartner climb all over the pace, scream, and refuse to eat.  Yesterday was better, as I got to have lunch with my grandpa.  Aside from that, I worked a bunch this weekend.  Hopefully, things will calm down a bit this week at work and I can enjoy next weekend.

  • Hello ladies.  We took Friday off and went to Berlin for a long weekend.  My brother and his wife are there for a year, so we spent most of the time sightseeing with them (they've only been there a month).  It was out first time there as well and we had a great time.  So much history, and so much to see that we barely touched the surface although we packed as much as possible into three days.  We got back last night and now back to work today.  I feel like we need another day off to just relax, but instead this is a crazy busy day at work.

    Hope you feel better soon, abarber.

  • Good morning! Saturday, DH and I got hair cuts and spent the rest of the day relaxing. We watched The Green Mile and played Boggle. We figured since it could possibly be our last weekend sans baby, we should just relax and spend time together. Sunday we went to my mom's for a birthday lunch for my sister and then came home and watched football and did some laundry.

    Today has already been an annoying day at work. I am trying to get my work done, so that I don't leave a lot for people to do once I'm gone and my boss keeps giving me projects. I just keep reminding myself that I'm going to go into labor soon and whatever is done is done and whatever isn't, isn't.

  • Morning ladies!

    We had a wonderful relaxing weekend and then all of a sudden DH got really sick last night. I felt so helpless. Thankfully he didn't argue when I said he needed to stay home and rest. Other than with doctors notes from major issues, he's never called in sick to work.

    Today is a going away lunch for two of our engineers that are leaving in the next two weeks...part of me is super jealous!

  • Good morning ladies. We had a busy but fun weekend. We just hired a new person in our department and I'll be training with him for the next few weeks so I may not be around much. Hope you all have a wonderful day.

    Happy Thanksgiving to the Canadian ladies!

  • Good Morning! We had a fairly busy weekend. All day Saturday was spent demoing the basement/family room. Sunday we ran some errands and watched football.

    I have off today, and have been mostly lounging around. I did manage to get a load of laundry done. I am hoping this week goes quickly, because my cousin's wedding is on Saturday, and if all goes well at my first doctor appointment on Thursday, we will be telling my parents/grandparents and brother the big news.

    Hope you ladies have a great week!
