Highs? All of it. It was jam-packed and delightful. I haven't had a weekend that amazing in a long time.
Lows? Having to sit through the drive home from DE on Saturday night when all I wanted, desperately, was to already be in my own bed.
Eat/make anything good? Grilled corn on the cob topped with butter and Old Bay. Yuuuuuuum.
Watch anything good? I caught up on the last 3 episodes of Revenge, and the final two episodes of Hawaii Five-O (5-O? I don't know, whatever).
Read anything good? I finished Deadlocked, the latest in the Sookie Stackhouse series. I'm glad it was better than the previous.
AWs, vents, FFCs, etc? I'm really just bursting with how wonderful this weekend was. Friday I spent time with E and M before I went to pick up my cousin at her brother's house, and while there I got to snuggle with a 2-month old. Saturday we all went to my aunt's wedding and witnessed her finally marrying, in a civil union, her longtime partner - then we partied with family for the rest of the evening. E, M, my cousin, and I took a detour to Rehoboth Beach for an hour or so, played in the sand and the waves in our wedding clothes, and then ate Thrasher's french fries and ice cream on the boardwalk. Sunday we had E's friends over for a cookout, and Monday we had an impromptu party with some of our best friends - crabs, kiddie pool for the little ones, and plans for the rest of our summer weekends. I'm just happy, and I love it.
What are you looking forward to this week? Thursday is the fetal echo that we've been anxiously awaiting - we'll finally have answers as to what's going on with our baby boy's heart.

Highs? Low-key BBQ with friends on Sunday.
Lows? Not finding a couch this weekend. There are plenty of contenders, but we're never going to find one that we want without customizing it at Ethan Allen and that's just expensive!
Eat/make anything good? Lots of BBQ food over the weekend.
Watch anything good? Watched both The Vow and the remake of True Grit over the weekend and both were good.
Read anything good? Nope.
AWs, vents, FFCs, etc? Nope.
What are you looking forward to this week? Heading up to NY this weekend to spend some time with my family and celebrate my grandma's 80th birthday.

I also made a red, white and blue pie and a new chicken skewer recipe. DH made a wonderful dinner last night: flank steak and a new asparagus recipe.
Watch anything good? Saw the Wizard of Oz at Toby's dinner theater and caught up on Girls, Veep and The Killing.
Read anything good? Finished Deadlocked by Charlaine Harris and now I'm reading In the Garden of Beasts by Erik Larson.

Highs? The entire weekend was a lot of fun.
Lows? Potty training yesterday and it's not going well today. I think at daycare she's getting distracted and forgets to pee in the potty.
Eat/make anything good? chicken kabobs we had on Sunday at my Inlaw's. We picked up this triple chocolate cake from Wegmans and it's incredible, bad for my waist, but yummy.
Watch anything good? Finally finished watching all the DVR'ed Once Upon a Time (Can't wait for the second season to start up).
Read anything good? I'm reading the first book of the Hunger Games Series.
AWs, vents, FFCs, etc? We went swimming yesterday with friends and A seem to really enjoy the pool. I even got C in the water too (feet that is). We are really working on potty training this week too. She wants to wear panties and she only had three accidents yesterday total. We actually went to Target and had no accidents, but at daycare she's already had three accident. Gone through all the clothes I brought. Ugh!
What are you looking forward to this week? We have a birthday party to attend and I hope it's nice we can get into the pool again.

AWs, vents, FFCs, etc? I'm super excited for DS's birthday!! I can't believe what a little *person* he is now. Also, we had ILs watch DS yesterday for most of the day. I am seriously amazed at what I can get done around the house when DS is not there (which is almost never).

tspring82 · May 2012

Highs? So many! Finally got to catch up with my west coast brother about his new job, snuggled with babies, went to Frederick for a Keys game and walked around downtown, went to a cookout, and had lots of laughs the whole weekend

Lows? DH and I were both really tired from the heat on Saturday and we were hungry so by the time we got back to Baltimore from Fredrick, we were both cranky with each other and needed timeouts.

Eat/make anything good? I grilled London Broil last night.

Watch anything good? I completely caught up on everything I had DVR'd!

Read anything good? nope

AWs, vents, FFCs, etc? AW: I'm extremely proud of my brother. He left his job at Amazon and is now working for Rhapsody with some ridiculous title and salary but acts like it's no big deal. He's the type of person that has a lot of drive and it has really paid off for him. And I'm really proud of what he has accomplished.

VENT: my boss is now in the office next to me. I don't really care in terms of work load and stuff but he is a "tapper" and constantly is tapping on his desk and it is driving me insane!

What are you looking forward to this week? Although I don't really want to go to this seminar thing on Friday, I'll be out of the office all day and that'll be nice.

EverAfter07 · May 2012

Highs? Had a lot of time with DH, which was nice since I'll be on vacay with my family for 1.5 weeks without him soon!

Eat/make anything good? Grilled burger on Sunday was SO good. My dad makes the best burgers.

Watch anything good? GoT was FANTASTIC.

Read anything good? Nope, saving my new book for vacation.

AWs, vents, FFCs, etc? I'm leaving for vacation on Thursday (cruise with my family), and I am already in that I-don't-care mindset at work. I am so freaking ready for a vacation. DH and I are going to start TTC when I get back, and I am excited and petrified.

What are you looking forward to this week? VACATION!!!!! Thursday morning, here I come.
