Highs? It was awesome! It was a weekend that I definitely needed. I went to see one of my bff's. I haven't seen her since July! It was a great day! Lows? Not seeing my other bff since we seem to see each other a lot, so I missed seeing her Watch anything good? just caught up on some dvr Read anything good? no Eat anything good? not really Vents, confessions, AWs? I purchased the items to make some christmas gifts. I am very excited about making the few items. I started my cutting last evening. I also was able to finish all the kids gifts for bdays/christmas. I was starting to get nervous not having time to shop since most weekends are booked from now until Christmas. I still have a ton left to purchase but it was a good start and a nice dent out of the list.

Highs? Family pictures on Saturday morning went great which is nothing short of a miracle since we had to wait 45 minutes and DS had only a cat nap and got his bottle almost 2 hours late.
Lows? As usual, I didn't get as much done around the house as I would have liked.
Watch anything good? Resumed our catching up on Dexter.
Read anything good? No.
Eat anything good? Erm, not especially.
Vents, confessions, AWs?
Vent: I had a horrible morning. No one thing in particular, just a bunch of little things adding up to frustration. I hate how messy my house is. And I feel so guilty when DH politely asks if there's anything he can do to help me get things together. But it's all my stuff so there's not much he can help with.
Confession: I don't like pumpkin spice coffees. And it's really weird because I love coffee, pumpkin, and those spices, just not all together I guess.

Highs? Hung out with my friend from college yesterday and brought our dogs along for a really long walk at the park and took them shopping downtown. Got my pooch a cute monkey sweater.
Lows? The place I've been going to for years for spray tans, massages and wraps went out of business after 10 years. I even got my Mom a gift certificate there last Christmas that she hadn't used yet.
Watch anything good? Saw the new Harold & Kumar movie. It was pretty funny and the 3-D effects were good. Now I wish Waffle Bots were real though.
Read anything good? Haflway through The Help.
Eat anything good? Delicious peach praline pie and everything we had at the Melting Pot.
Vents, confessions, AWs?

AW: I'm almost done my Christmas shopping!

Confession: I think I'm going to get out the Christmas decorations this weekend.

Highs - Must have been family picture weekend. Pictures on Saturday afternoon - they were running AT LEAST 20 minutes late, but DD was ok, too. SFIL & MIL came down and finished our windows, fixed our roof, rehung/hung new gutters and put up some Fascia around our house. Great seeing IL's

Lows - Co-hosted a Pampered Chef party with a friend. She brought some apps, but I ended up buying the wine, drinks, more apps, most of the ingredients for the demo app, and having to do all the pre-cleaning , set-up and clean up AND I don't really want anything more from PC. Plus, LO was off-schedule and overstimulated most of the weekend.

Watch anything good? Nope

Eat anything good - not really. The PC woman made some apple tart thing with caramel sauce, but it was WAY TOO Sweet and kind of gross. I think it made me sick Ick!

AW - DD is really starting to cruise. She is a crawling maniac. I can't leave her for a second or she tries to crawl onto dog 1 or near to dog 2.

My vents are above.

Confession: I'm glad to have so many activities, but this weekend was SO BUSY. I need a break/nap.

Highs? Relaxing last night with DH in a quiet house after a long week.

Lows? Not getting enough done around the house.

Watch anything good? We caught up on our shows RH of BH and ATL, Sister Wives, and Tough Love.

Read anything good? No

Eat anything good? I made crab dip for DH, which he loved! I also made a Tropical Bundt Cake for FIL's bday. The family raved about it but it wasn't sweet enough for me. MIL made a sweet and spicy tofu dish that was awesome.

Vents, confessions, AWs? My parents just left and they are coming back for Thanksgiving. They've been up every month since May with the exception of August. I know I b!tch about it a lot but it's so frustrating. There's no room for them at my sister's (they have 4 people in a two bedroom condo) and we feel bad telling them to stay in a hotel. I love my parents but I don't like them staying with us. Especially when Mom cranks the heat up to 75!

Highs? The Steelers beating the Bengals and the Ravens losing to the Seahawks
Lows? Not enough time to relax... too much work
Watch anything good? Other than football I didn't watch anything
Read anything good? I finished the worst book I've ever read and actually finished: Girls in White Dresses
Eat anything good? Lots of good food! Italian food at Toninos in Reisterstown Friday night, Pei Wei in Towson on Saturday night, Sushi @ San Sushi Too on Sunday night
Vents, confessions, AWs? Not that I can think of

Highs? Spent the day with my aunt on Saturday and had a great time at dinner with my friends family last night.
Lows? Not being able to sleep on Saturday night.
Watch anything good? Tried to catch up on the DVR, but that was a big fail.
Read anything good? Nope
Eat anything good? High Tea at Tea by Two.
Vents, confessions, AWs? I don't really have anything.

Highs? Went to the MD Irish Festival on Friday night with some friends we rarely get to see. It was fun and we want to go next year when we can stay longer. Also went out Saturday night for a friend's birthday. It was great to get out, have some drinks and let loose for a while. Saw my good friends from NJ and NY in this past week so all in all it was great.
Lows? Not really - great weekend.
Watch anything good? My new favorite show is Property Brothers. I love seeing how they take a craptacular house and turn it into something amazing.
Read anything good? Nope.
Eat anything good? We went to Tapas Adela in Fells on Saturday night and everything was delicious.
Vents, confessions, AWs? I am anxiously awaiting to hear from Towson on whether I got into their Masters in Education program and it's driving me crazy. I am stalking the mailbox like I'm a Senior in high school again. My patience is at zero and I am terrified I'll get a rejection letter.

Oh this is me, too. I know he is just trying to help but I get really defensive and take it personally. I know he doesn't mean it like that but I *really* don't have any idea of what to do with the stuff. I feel like a hoarder sometimes!

mrsbobcat · November 2011

Highs? - Solid weekend overall. Had a nice 10 mile run yesterday and ran very even 9:30 miles which was great because I never run consistent paces!
Lows? - Did not do any of the work I brought home on Friday.
Watch anything good? - Certainly not the Giants game yesterday!
Read anything good? - Nope!
Eat anything good? - Nothing out of the ordinary. Drank two pony beers on Sunday, which was out of the ordinary for me. I hardly ever drink alcohol.
Vents, confessions, AWs? - Really productive weekend on the house front. Primed and painted our guest bedroom. Primed the mancave. Things are starting to get very colorful in our house!

jadebaby · November 2011

Highs? Was off on Friday and so was DH (that's rare that we are off together). Had my SIL take a few maternity pics of me and DH.
Lows?
Watch anything good? Just a few old movies on tv. Nothing new.
Read anything good? Started the Sookie Stackhouse series again. Just finished book #1 last night.
Eat anything good? Nothing has been tasting really good lately.
Vents, confessions, AWs? I like the pictures SIL took (she used our camera and I directed her) but I really wish I had worn my contacts and makeup. I hate how you can see how tired I am! Oh and I just realized that I have been wasting my Thursday nights at 9:00 on Secret Circle when BONES is back on! OH EM GEE I am so mad I missed the last two episodes!

Highs? Lots of family time with DH & DD on both Saturday and Sunday.

Lows? DD refused to nap and, as such, was driving me insane. I was ready to list her on CraigsList and stick her on the curb on Saturday night.

Watch anything good? I caught up on all of my TV that I missed last week. I couldn't pick a favorite, but man was I bummed that Revenge wasn't on. I LOVE that show.

Read anything good? I finished Beautiful Days, the second in the Bright Young Things trilogy by Anna Godbersen, but it was only okay. I started Destined, the ninth in the House of Night series by P.C. & Kristin Cast. So far it's good, but I'm only halfway through, so I'm reserving judgment.

Eat anything good? A fruit tart from Wegman's on Saturday night. Those things are awesome.

Vents, confessions, AWs? I got nothin'.

Check OnDemand and/or Hulu for the Bones episodes. I've been pleasantly surprised by how many shows I can watch via those two venues!

linzee · November 2011

Highs? 7 year wedding anniversary on Sunday, last soccer game of the season for Kira's team that I coach (we won) Lows? traffic in Delaware along I-95 Watch anything good? Pretty sure that I did not watch any TV this weekend. Read anything good? Magic Lake by Kristen ?? Eat anything good? too much, had the waterfront buffet at harrah's and they had this brisket that was too die for. Vents, confessions, AWs? I've survived 7 years of marriage. I outlasted my parents first marriage, and my dad's second marriage if we are keeping score.

KathrynMD · November 2011

Highs? fun night out w/ friends on Saturday

Lows? This annoying cold was almost gone and then came back w/ a vengence on Sunday. I'd really like to be in bed still, but there are workers at my house today, so no point staying there.

Watch anything good? Not really

Read anything good? I'm taking a little reading vacation, so no

Eat anything good? Awesome steak dinner w/ parmesan risotto on Saturday at Stanford Grill

Vents, confessions, AWs? I'll be very happy when the stupid kitchen reno is done. DH has zero patience while its going on and its getting very old trying to remind him to calm down all the time. Also - the two adult women that work for me need to learn to chill the f* out and remember this is just work, not an episode of Dynasty.

summer08bride · November 2011

Highs? I was in Jacksonville from Thurs-Sun and it was amazing!! The weather was great, and it was good to see all of my friends. I also went to a wedding on the water on Fri night and it was beautiful!

Lows? not feeling well after getting back to MD

Watch anything good? Not really, was out taking in the 75 degrees and sun!

Read anything good? Not really

Eat anything good? The food at the wedding was good, and then I went to some of my fav places down there

Vents, confessions, AWs? I hate my job, well, I think it goes beyond hate, I loathe, detest it! I really didn't want to come back to MD knowing I had to come back to this job.
