Re: AW THURSDAY

  • T is going on his first field trip today to a cider mill in Plymouth. Hopefully it's not too long because my boys are both sick and it's not supposed to be the nicest day and we're going to have to skip a nap :(

    We have to skip a nap because we're CLOSING ON OUR HOUSE TODAY!!!!!!!!!  I'm super excited to get in there.  Let the insanity begin!!! :)

  • Such exciting things for both of you today!!!!  Congrats!

    I can't think of anything to AW about today.

  • I don't really have much to AW this week... I am pretty excited for the weekend because I get to hang out with my mom, which I haven't done for a while, and then see a bunch of my family (including all the super-fun little kids) at a bonfire.  We're going to press cider, too, which I haven't done for a couple of years.  Yay!

  • Wow, so many exciting things going on this week!

    My AW isn't really mine, its DH's: he just scheduled his dissertation defense for mid-Dec!  After 5.5 years of grad school, an end is finally in sight!!!  He has a lot to do between now & then, so it's going to be a rough few months, but I'm excited for him!

  • Our front landscape is FINALLY done, after the initial start of tearing down the trees last summer lol. I wish I would've taken pics at every stage of the process though. It went from a million trees/bushes, which somehow started turning into a million and one weeds and now yay it's all pretty.

    Now I need to figure out what to plant and where to plant it, it's a HUGE flower bed and ummm I can't think of any landscaping ideas Embarrassed.

  • So many great AW's this week!

    I don;t have much - other than DH and I successfully moved into our house this past weekend, and it's been way easier than I anticipated - still have a lot to unpack/go through, but it's been easier than I thought.

    And for the first time in months we have almost nothing going on this weekend - so we picked a ocuple fun things we've been wanting to do, and then we're spending tons of time relaxing!!!!

  • Congrats to everyone on all the great AWs today!

    My AW is that our bonuses post tomorrow.  :)

    My non-AW is that I feel so weird right now.  Slightly nauseous and shaky.  (No...definitely NOT prego.)  :)

  • Over the last several days, I have booked most of the places we are going to be staying during our honeymoon.

    Rome:

    Florence:

    Venice:

    Lisbon, Portugal (for the layover on our way back):

    http://www.residencialvilanova.com/Ingles%20-%20index.htm

     

    The only place left to book is Cinque Terre in Italy.  And I think I'll have that one done in the next day or two.  Reserving all of the rooms is making it all even more real.  Craziness!
