Re: How was your weekend?

    • Highs? DS took an awesome nap on Saturday. Dinner and games with some friends Saturday night. Trying out DS's pool on Sunday even though he wasn't much of a fan.
    • Lows? I think I'm getting a cold.
    • Eat/make anything good? I made cupcakes for my neighbor.
    • Watch anything good? Not really.
    • Read anything good? No.
    • FFCs, vents, AW's, etc? 
    • I am really messy. It's weird for someone who likes to be organized as much as I do, but I am a mess. My side of our bedroom looks like my teenage bedroom did Embarrassed I wish I could get it together, and I do try, but I never seem to be able to get ahead of it.
    • I want to get highlights in my hair but I know I won't maintain them so it will be a waste. I also want to get a mani/pedi, but I feel like it's a waste of money since I can do it at home, but I never get around to it.
    • What are you looking forward to this week? I think we are having DH's family over on Sunday for Father's Day. I am looking forward to actually using our deck/grill since we haven't in about 2 years.

  • Highs? Spent A LOT of time with my family since my brother was in town.  We went out for drinks/dinner on Friday night and to the O's game Saturday.  Both days were super fun.

    Lows? went to my ILs yesterday afternoon and didn't accomplish anything at home

    Eat/make anything good? I had an awesome salmon BLT on Friday night at dinner, crabs Saturday night, and grilled lemon pepper chicken yesterday which turned out great!

    Watch anything good? Caught up on some Jimmy Fallon from last week but that's about it

    Read anything good? No.

    FFCs, vents, AW's, etc?  Sorta AW...I now have dark hair again (no more greys showing!) but am getting highlights hopefully by this weekend so I'll only be brunette for a few days.

    Vent...I hate when people come in to my office to ask a question that is going to take 2 seconds and they sit down as if they're ready to have a full on conversation/meeting with me.  I don't have time for your crap.  Get out of my office.

    What are you looking forward to this week? keeping up the gym bit and having my niece and nephew with us for the weekend

    • Highs? Picked fruit, read a lot and got some little house projects done.
    • Lows? Heat makes me grumpy and lethargic. I hate it.
    • Eat/make anything good? Didn't cook much this weekend but I picked cherries, strawberries and black raspberries. Also had some delicious cherry vanilla ice cream.
    • Watch anything good? We watched The Zookeeper on tv and thought it was cute. Watched Nurse Jackie and Girls this morning. I will probably watch True Blood tonight.
    • Read anything good? I just finished Perfect Match by Jodi Picoult and I'm listening to April in Paris in the car and just started reading Handle with Care by Jodi Picoult.
    • FFCs, vents, AW's, etc? Nothing really except I would like to reiterate that I hate heat. We're having a cookout next weekend and I really hope it cools down.
    • What are you looking forward to this week? Going to the zoo.
    • Highs? Spent some time by the pool; saw "Sisters of Swing" in Annapolis, which was amazing. My husband finally finished tiling our kitchen floor, thank goodness. 
    • Lows? I can't really think of anything. Is it strange I already can't remember what I did on Friday night? 
    • Eat/make anything good? I made a mushroom and sausage cream sauce to go over pasta on Saturday night. It was yummy! 
    • Watch anything good? We watched a few episodes each of "Hollywood Treasure" and "The League" on Netflix.
    • Read anything good? I'm halfway reading about 3 books right now. Can you tell none of them are grabbing me? 
    • FFCs, vents, AW's, etc? AW: I think one of my photos is going to be on the cover of our Eastern Shore magazine! I wrote a story about oysters for the August issue and took my own photos. I don't consider myself a photographer, but I'm learning and getting better...but the managing editor pulled out one of the photos for a potential cover and everyone loves the mock-up! 
    • What are you looking forward to this week? we're going out in Annapolis for a friend's birthday on Friday and then beach on Saturday.

    • Highs? Most of my weekend was a high. I saw lots of good friends and attended 3 cookouts, thus eating 3 cheeseburgers from the grill which were all delicious. DD had a great weekend seeing her little friends too, plus she loved swimming yesterday and even jumped in several times (with me there to catch her).

    • Lows? Nothing really! The weekend was too short, as usual. 

    • Eat/make anything good? The cheeseburgers mentioned above were all really good. 

    • Watch anything good? No

    • Read anything good? No

    • FFCs, vents, AW's, etc? We are going on vacation next week and I am just so excited to have a week off work and away from the responsibilities of home.
