Happy Friday!

Thank goodness its finally HERE! I do not want to go to work today though, my puppers and being super cuddly and I just want to stay home and rest and clean.  N and I are going shopping tonight. I have to pick up my bridesmaids dress and N needs to buy a dress for a weeding in a few weeks that will still fit her growing belly. Tomorrow I have to drive over to SR and go bridesmaids dress shopping with FSIL. Its going to be a weekend of spending money on dresses. 

What are your plans for the weekend.

Re: Happy Friday!

  • I'm having lunch today with 2 girls that I know from TK.  Other than that I have no big weekend plans.  H is in port so we've been able to talk a lot but that's it.  I need to go to Lowe's after lunch to get some shelves for the house and more blinds and stuff, so that will give me something to do too.

  • Longest.week.ever.

    I have to let our marketing lady go today and I'm nervous. I hate this part of the job.

    Other than that I'm driving up to see H tonight after work. Google says it's going to take 7  hours! Indifferent Bleh!

  • I'm at work right now. We were supposed to get this super big snow storm so everyone was hoping for a snow day, but I know better than that. I have to cover our front desk after lunch for the rest of the day and I'm not really looking forward to that.

    We have no plans for the weekend. None. Well, except Sunday. A wants to go watch the game at his friend's house but I just don't feel like it. The all day sickness sucks, I'm fighting off a cold, I'm exhausted, and watching the Superbowl is still really hard for me to do since it was something I always did with my dad. I just want to stay home and wallow in my pregnant, sick, missing my dad self pity.

  • Yay Friday!

    I am going to yoga with a new yoga buddy tomorrow morning. Then we might be going to Indian food tomorrow with a guy from DH's work/class and his wife. Then a super bowl party Sunday. Thats this week right? I think so.

  • Working right now.  We don't have much planned for the weekend.  Our next door neighbors are having people over for Super Bowl but that's about it.

  • I'm playing on M's "new" iPad right now. I say "new" because he was issued it for his class but doesn't need it today. Apparently it's part of a pilot program to see if  tablets are useful in this class. It's useful for me today!

    We were suppose to go zip lining tomorrow but the lady called me because she wouldn't feel right letting us come and pay full price when they will be releasing a Groupon on Monday. So we cancelled and are going to buy the groupon and reschedule. I'm so shocked that she did this and will now be inviting friends to join to us when we reschedule. 

    Sunday we're going to a friends to watch the game but I'm more interested in the food than football.  

  • I don't want to be at work today either. Work has been really slow this week and it just keeps dragging. I'm done. DH has to work all weekend so we don't really have anything planned. I'm going to sit my butt on the couch tonight and watch the HP 5 movie. Tomorrow I'm going shopping for a new pair of running shoes and some work pants and then dragging my butt to the gym. It's going to be a pretty boring weekend.

  • For some oddball reason; this has truly been a long week and I'm so very glad that it is Friday. I had completely forgotten that Superbowl is this Sunday; K is working night shift this weekend and that's what I'm thinking about is the only reason I can come up with for forgetting that it is SB w/e.

    Tomorrow, my parents are planning on coming over early to help me start revamping L's bedroom. She is getting a daybed to replace her current bed and we're rearranging the room to something that is hopefully a lot more cohesive. I want to steam clean the carpet while we do this it'll be a few weeks before this project is completed, not to mention we're painting an accent wall in her room to cover up the Disney castle that I painted on there when we moved in 3.5 years ago. She has declared that, at 8, she is officially over Disney princesses.  Crying When did she decide that she is so grown up?!?

    It'll be okay.  I have my fingers crossed for you that she doesn't develop an obsession with Justin Beiber.

    Too late. It was a firm "N-O" from me when she was eye-balling JB stuff at Claire's. Ugh.

  • I'm not feeling so hot but I have a half day today. Going to the chiro then headed up to Chicago for the weekend. I have a friend's going away party(she's deploying) tomorrow night and then Sunday probably lunch with some friends and heading back down south to watch the Superbowl. K comes home next weekend(for drill) and I'm very excited.

  • I've been cleaning all morning, the baby has been napping in the swing and DD has been running around behind me making a new mess :)

    My washer has been acting up again. Ugh. I think it's time to just let it go and get a new one. It only works on one size setting, the knob doesn't turn correctly, and it occasionally has pieces of rust fall off into the load. 

    In other news, my elliptical is being delivered in a few hours and I'm SO excited!! I hope its not a beast to put together because I really want to use it tonight.

    Not much going on this weekend. Superbowl on Sunday=lounging around and making chicken pesto pizza on foccacia later on.

    I'm trying to plan a surprise date for Tuesday evening. I have a babysitter lined up, but I'm still nervous. I don't know what to do! I want to do something fun and not the typical boring dinner and movie.

  • Tomorrow we're going to a spin class.  We started doing spin about three weeks ago and are having a lot of fun doing it together.  J also wants to see Man on a Ledge, so I think we may go to a matinee of that.

    I still need to figure out what we're making for the Superbowl since we're hosting it.  J's coworkers keep calling and adding additional people they're bringing, so the amount of food we need just keeps climbing. We don't really have any emotional attachment to either teams, we just are going to have fun getting together.

    I say go for a big crock pot of chili, big bowl of dip and chips, and a veggie tray.

    Yeah we were planning on making chili for Frito Chili Pies.  J is wanting to make wings, so he is in charge of those.  I think chips and dip is a great idea, and veggies.  Thanks!

  • I am looking forward to a weekend with lots and lots of sleep in it!

    I arrived home from a long business trip last Sunday, and have barely had time to catch my breath (or deal with the major jetlag that should be hitting me).  It's been a crazy busy few weeks, between the trip, and this week of insanity.  (dang, I haven't had a weekend off since Jan. 7&8...  working, or travelling for work since)

    We plan on watching the Superbowl on Sunday, but it'll be low-key.  DH has an FX that starts Monday morning, so no parties for us.  That's all OK.  :)

     

    Oh, and I plan on buying a toothbrush.  Yes, weird.  I know.  My dentist highly recommended that I get an electric toothbrush, and Costco has a great deal on a Sonicare toothbrush right now...

     

    But, before the weekend, there is today for work, this afternoon for car care, and tonight for a Hail and Farewell...  I'm thinking of insisting DH drive, so I can drink.  I think I deserve it.

    I was thinking wings too? but trying to make it easier. LoL  Glad to see you're delegating! I'm the nutbag that would try to do it all by myself.

    Oh I do try to do everything, usually.  And I usually get super mad at him by the end of the day.  He's just been talking about them and changing his mind about the flavor too much that I've decided that he gets to make those.

  • Blah. I'm heading to the doctor to get meds for mastisis which I just can't kick. We were going to celebrate our anni while a friend watched O, but I feel like ass & can't kick this fever. I'll say again BLAH!

  • I am here and STARVING! (Okay maybe it's not that bad) But with all the party talk below, I really want a hotdog with mustard and a coke. OMG. 

    Other than that, I am going to see a play in Philly tonight with a friend. It should be fun. Sunday we are hanging out with some friends to see the Super Bowl.

    Boo!! I hope the meds help you kick the mastisis for good; that is one of my biggest fears/concerns after E gets here.
