Whats everyone up to? Quiet lately :-)
Hello ladies!!! What is everyone up to this weekend/lately??? This board has been quiet the past few days!
Today I plan on doing a CRAP ton of grocery shopping to try to stock up on stuff to make meals and get us through the next few weeks. My list is really long....
DH is working late tonight, so it will just be me... so I'll do the grocery shopping then probably chill on the couch watching a guilty pleasure movie (with some guilty pleasure food too!!)
This weekend we don't really have any plans besides try to get through the list of things that I want to get accomplished before my induction on Monday. General things like cleaning out the cars, dusting and vacuuming, clean bathrooms, and the most important thing on the list - having my DH paint my toenails :-)
Sunday we are going to carve pumpkins with some friends of ours and probably go to Qdoba for dinner, since that seems to be tradition. Oh and of course watch football as much as possible haha!! I am REALLY hoping that we get the Denver Bronco's game, we are big Tim Tebow fans (steaming from our Florida Gators obsession) and we are super excited that he has been bumped up to starting QB!
So all in all we don't have plans to do a whole lot of anything exciting, but I really want to stay as well rested and pain free as possible over the next few days. Maybe you ladies are doing some super exciting stuff, and I can live vicariously though you all :-)
Re: Whats everyone up to? Quiet lately :-)
Today I picked up some groceries, went to World Market and Teavana to get birthday presents for my brother and his GF. I went to a church nearby and picked up some pumpkins, and got scared by a squirrel that had been living in one. (they have the pumpkins on the lawn and have been there for like, 2 weeks) And now I'm making cauliflower soup.
Tomorrow DH and and I are probably going to clean a little bit, but that's it really. On Sunday my parents, my two brothers and their GFs are all coming over for dinner and pumpkin carving.
DH has a friend who lives in Pakistan, who is around this weekend. DH wants to see him, so I think we're going to a party he's throwing tomorrow.
Other than that, no plans. I'll probably clean a little, but mostly watch Netflix. :P

I did the grocery shopping on my was home from work, so that is all done!
I have a hair appt tomorrow morning and was supposed to go to my friend's baby shower in the afternoon, but we have family coming into town now, so that cancelled that plan. DH is working until 4 tomorrow afternoon too.
Other than that, the usual weekend house stuff and I have a tonne of work to get finished for my course - assignment is due Sunday by 11 pm.
I have a lot of marking and prep work to do as well, so if I manage to get my course work done with some time to spare, then that's what I will be doing. Nothing fun at all, that's for sure!
This weekend is supposed to be cool, wet, and windy, so I guess I won't be missing something outside! I hope to get to my "wellness club" (aka gym/spa) at least once this weekend too. And, I would really love to get some sleep! lol
Reading, reading and more reading!
Hinmighty- I can't believe this is your last baby free weekend! Enjoy and good luck Monday!!!!
I haven't been up to much except work. Luckily we have a couple of days off for fall break, so I can relax a little bit. This weekend is a beautiful weekend in NE Ohio. The sun is shining and will probably be the last nice weekend in a while. Last night we went to our favorite chinese restaurant. Today I am going to a Halloween party with my nephews, then I am not sure what else.
We are also dealing with a plumbing issue. Our neighbor (who we share a common wall with ) told us she hears water dripping in her kitchen after we shower. So we are going over there today to do an experiment to determine what shower is leaking.
We are just spending the weekend getting things done and spending some time together.
Last night we went for a hike with the physics club at Hs school. Today we ran some errands, and went to the mall. We finally bought a first outfit for Lucia!
And then tomorrow we're going to work on decorating our apartment. We are mostly done unpacking, and now this place needs to start looking like a home
Today was the last farmers market!
I enjoyed going and spending the day with my mom. But I'm so looking forward to having my weekends back.Tonight I had craft night with a good friend. We made some Halloween stuff, drank spiked apple cider, and spokified(put up lights and spider webs in the windows) my house.
Tomorrow is my productive day. Homework and getting ready for the week ahead.
Aw, I can't believe your baby is coming so soon! How exciting! Good luck on Monday!
This weekend I spent with my friend in her hometown. We went to an awesome pumpkin patch, an Amish bakery (where I picked up some amazing foods), and did some shopping. It was super fun!
Now, I'm just procrastinating from typing up a study guide for my students while watching the Packer game.
Sorry, been busy training for and doing the Virginia Tough Mudder (which was this weekend)!
I can't believe the last 9 months have just flown by!! Good luck with everything this week and in welcoming the newest member of your family to the world!
