Highs? Had a pretty relaxing weekend around the house. Lows? Nothing really - just sick of heat and wish it would rain more. Also slept like crap last night b/c of the thunderstorm. Eat/make anything good? Made homemade chipwiches and they were delicious. Watch anything good? We watched the 2nd Sherlock Holmes movie and I was disappointed. Mostly caught up on all the shows I missed during the power outage. Read anything good? Didn't read much. I'm still on Nora Roberts' Angels Fall. FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? AW: I've gone to exercise classes every day this month so far. What are you looking forward to this week? FIL putting up trim and baseboards in our foyer.

Lows? My commute from hell Friday night - the metro train derailed and I had to walk in the 100+ heat to find a cab.
Eat/make anything good? Crab grilled cheese for dinner last night!
Watch anything good? nah - I tried to watch Mirror, Mirror 2x but fell asleep.
Read anything good? no
FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? DD is in a weird stage where she's sassy/rude. I'm having a hard time figuring out whether to ignore it mostly or correct it.

Highs? Pretty relaxing, we didn't have any plans.
Lows? We didn't get as much done around the house as we had hoped we would.
Eat/make anything good? Crispy chicken tacos at Chili's - I love them. And Rita's x2
Watch anything good? Not really.
Read anything good? No.
FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? The rest of this month is going to be stressful. This week DH has a work thing so we had to switch daycare duties and now I'm doing pick up every day. I do like working earlier and getting home earlier (necessary to pick up DS on time) but we are leaving for the beach on Saturday and I kind of needed to run some errands after work and now I can't. Looking forward to the beach for sure, but the day after we come home, DH is leaving for a week-long business trip. I'm stressing about that too, and somehow, family's offers to help don't seem like they would actually help me.
What are you looking forward to this week? Saturday when we leave for the beach!!!! First vacation in 3 years and first week long trip to the beach as a family!

Highs? Took the girls to the Air and Space Museum in Chantilly (the one near Dullas Airport), Okay this was more for DH then DD.
Lows? A is being a pain lately, lots of yelling and being upset when she doesn't get her way.
Eat/make anything good? MIL made this shrimp and dill cold pasta salad for the 4th.
Watch anything good? I caught the tail end of the girl with the dragon tattoo yesterday morning (while feeding C).
Read anything good? Still reading my book and one on making baby food.
FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? I'm ready for another day off of work. I don't have another full day planned off until September.
What are you looking forward to this week? C turns 4 months old on Thursday. HOW THE HECK DID THAT HAPPEN???

LoveLossHopeRepeat · July 2012

Highs? Getting all out stupid errands taken care of and getting a lot of the housework done.
Lows? Nothing really *fun*, but we needed the productivity, so it was better that way, I guess.
Eat/make anything good? Delicious pizza on Friday night and Rita's on Saturday. I cannot get enough Italian Ice right now.
Watch anything good? True Blood, and a bunch of DVRed episodes of Rizzoli & Isles.
Read anything good? Finally finished The Golden Lily and read Most Talkative. I enjoyed both.
FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? I know I just vented about E and laundry last week, but I sincerely could have smacked him on the head with a frying pan last night. I'd done all of the cleaning all weekend, so while I was giving M her bath, I asked him to please bring up the clean clothes and take down the dirty stuff that had accumulated. I told him that he could throw the sheets into the washer, since they didn't need to separated. Later I asked him if he'd thrown the sheets in and he said no, he'd thrown in the clothes since I said they didn't need to be separated. And I KNOW that load contained two pairs of dark wash jeans (which bleed on everything) and a skirt of M's that is white with colored stripes. I had to do breathing exercises to keep from losing it.
What are you looking forward to this week? It being over.

mrsbobcat · July 2012

Highs? Bought a new couch for the living room and curtains for our master bedroom from Z Gallerie.

Lows? Felt like absolute death after finishing up a 10 mile run on Saturday morning. I don't think I would have finished if it wasn't for being in a group run, so it's a good thing I joined a group. My pace was so slow and I just felt so heavy. I know it's only week 1 of marathon training and the heat definitely played a factor, but it was just a miserable time.

Eat/make anything good? I made shrimp scampi last night and it was pretty good.

Watch anything good? We went over to a friends house to watch the UFC fight Saturday night. The main event wasn't amazing, but the time with friends was fun.

Read anything good? Nope.

FFCs, vents, AWs, comments, etc? Dear DH: your birthday is Wednesday. Pick a gift already!*

*We're kind of odd, but we usually pick out our own gifts. DH wants a smoker for his birthday and let's be honest that's just one of those things I should not pick out for him! Same thing when I want camera equipment. It's just safer to pick it out.

summer08bride · July 2012

Highs? Hanging out my parents pool all weekend.

Lows? We somehow got ants and they were all over our living room, so H bombed the house on Sunday and Harley and I went back to my parents house. It's been a long weekend of driving around the beltway

Eat/make anything good?We had filet wrapped in bacon, with mashed potatoes and peas on Sat.

Watch anything good? Nope. It was a Harry Potter weekend on ABC family though

Read anything good? Nope.

Vent #1
My summer 1 course ended on Fri and my summer 2 course starts today and I feel so overwhelmed! I'm super busy at work and this class is going to require a ton of work. I just need a break! Even when I go on vacation, I will be doing school work.

Vent #2-
I hate H's mom, if you all didn't already know that....

FFC
I want to move back into my house now and not wait until January. I know this isn't financially possible, or realistically possible, I just want to be home.

What are you looking forward to this week? I'm going to see Jason Aldean on Sunday!!
