Friday.

plainjane0415

My mood is so blah today for a Friday.  I am so tired, I just want to catch up on sleep, I ate mexican last night, and a big country breakfast this morning, and I have my first dress fitting tomorrow, so I feel guilty about that... Just ugh...

Are you guys having a better Friday?  Big plans for the weekend?

Between my weekend excitement and the vertigo, this is pretty applicable to my life. My brother is getting married at the good old JOP on Saturday (And not having a PPD!) and then Sunday will be a relaxing day and me cursing DLS. But at least the weather will be fantastic, TYVM.

(A little forced;  that last acronym. Aww hell, I was on a roll.)

NowIamMrsKlein

I have to do my taxes this weekend. Wooo.. party....

blabla89

I'm totally distracted at work today. I have an appointment to get my bangs trimmed at lunch time and I'm waffling on whether or not I should go through with it.

Tomorrow I have my makeup trial! Really hoping it goes well. I told FI that I actually want to go out this weekend since I'll be looking all fabulous. I think the plan is to try a restaurant we haven't been to before.



Sunday I'm getting coffee with my coworker who mysteriously quit last month. I have a feeling it will be a little awkward, but I'm trying to be more intentional about staying in touch with people.

Thank goodness it's Friday! Got to wear jeans and Uggs to work today and H is getting us fish fry for dinner tonight. It's going to be a good day.

 

Tomorrow we're going to go to breakfast and go do some wine tasting. Our plan is to hit up a handful of wineries we've never been to because we tend to fall into just going to our favs. Plus we need to restock our wine rack - I need to find some good reds since apparently winter is never going away and white wine doesn't do it for me when it's cold.

 

Sunday we're going to go grocery shopping and H might to go his parents house so I can have a little quiet time. I also want to finish Parenthood. I've been binging hardcore on it for the past two weeks and I'm already in to season 5.

Gurl, I had a bagel for lunch Wednesday, pizza and Rally's fried grilled cheese for dinner while waiting in the ER, bagel for breakfast yesterday on the 100 mile drive BACK to the hospital, Bennigan's carryout appetizer sampler for lunch while waiting for Mom to come out of surgery, Taco Bell for dinner on the way home. I had to unbutton my pants and I'm pretty sure Tidbit was NOT to blame. 

I'm so excited to sleep all day tomorrow. And maybe eat a carrot or something.

We plan on going skiing sometime this weekend.  Other than that just the same ole, same ole.   DH is working, I will do some cleaning, laundry, etc.

Which is all good because next weekend I fly to NOLA for 5 days.  The day after I get back DH has a friend from NY coming in town.  That will be a whole weekend of skiing and going out.  Then a week after he leaves we go out east for a little over a week.

FI is coming home tonight after his short little work trip.  Tomorrow I have an appt for my cat's follow-up at the vet's, then I think we're going with my sisters to see Lazarus Effect or whatever it's called.  Sunday we're going to take my grandma out to a late lunch and then take her shopping to get a dress for the wedding.

plainjane0415 Sorry about your blah mood. I hope your day gets better!

mikenberger I'm jealous you will have nice weather. Also your brother's wedding sounds fun.

SoontobeMrsKlein I'm still waiting on my W4. I hope they send that soon. I want to get my taxes over with too.

blabla89 I think you should trim your bangs. But I have a short bob so I'm biased with hair ha. You should post pictures afterwards. I like seeing people's hairstyles. Saying that reminds me of the buzzfeed video about how some compliments are actually creepy.

cupcait927 The wineries sound like fun. I haven't tried that much wine though so the experience would be wasted on me. I haven't watch a lot of shows since I don't have cable. I've never seen Planned Parenthood or Parks and Recreation. "Ducks at thrown objects".

I'm so happy it's Friday! I've been up since 6:30 because I was suppose to have my therapy session at 8:00. But between the buses not running and the office actually was closed I didn't go. I wish they would have called me, I could have slept in more. 

Oh well! I'm now at work. It's been slow because of all the cancellations for science days so I've been knotting. It's also the last day of classes before spring break so that's exciting! V is going to North Carolina to visit/hang out with one of his friends. His friend is a doctor so he doesn't have a lot of free time. I'm going to be watching my girly shows tonight.

Saturday, my mom is coming down. We are celebrating her birthday. So we will be shopping and eating all the yummy foods. V will be back on Saturday night, so we might play a board game or watch a documentary.

Sunday, I'm working a science festival. That will be from 8:00 am to 3ish I think. Afterwards, I'm going to start studying for my exams after break. I'm also going to start writing a paper too. Either Sunday or Monday, V and I will be going to our favorite Mexican restaurant. We are celebrating his admission into competitive grad schools. So it looks like a fun weekend for me!

ETA: Computer did a very weird format.

It's my birthday today. I'm working but we'll grab dinner and run errands tonight. Tomorrow is much more fun-- if all goes well, I'll spend the entire day sleeping then we're going out to my favorite restaurant for dinner tomorrow night.

Also, I got this red lip gloss in a box from a subscription service a while back that I never tried on. I was goofing the other day and found that it looks great on me. I never have excuses to wear bold makeup so I'm kinda excited about it. Also, contemplating getting a manicure.

Super jealous of the jeans and Uggs.  I'm required to wear old lady suits to work.

@buttercup1958 no cable for us either. I had started watching Parenthood way back in the day when it first aired and then fell out of watching it. Seasons 1 through 5 are on Netflix and season 6 is on Hulu so I've been catching up from when I stopped watching. It's a good show. Parks and Rec is next up on my life. My roommate from college was actually an editor on the show for its last two season (I believe) so I definitely need to watch it.

OMG it's incredible. 

PS my boss is getting us all pizza for lunch today. Shoot me. I can't resist free food (and let's be honest, I would have gotten food truck food if not for that cuz I'm too tired to walk to Panera).

Don't you love it when you try something and expect it to not work, and then it totally does?  Especially something like red lipstick/gloss... good for you!  I'm still on the hunt for the perfect red.

Sign me up for some fried grilled cheese as well. My boss got us free pizza for lunch yesterday. And HR had cookies and cupcakes for everyone since it's employee appreciation week here at work. Then I went home and had pulled pork and coleslaw for dinner, followed by beers at the bar. I have zero shame. Plus now I want Panera for lunch.

Tonight I'm going to the gym, and then tomorrow I get to sign for my apartment (renting)! I won't be moving in until the end of this month/the middle of next month, but at least the paperwork will be there. I also started packing for the move, and I realized that I have more shit than I thought.  And I'm trying to be good about paring down what I do own. 

holyguacamole79

@lolo883 .. you were in the ER?  What happened?  Are you okay?

Happy birthday @wandajune6!

H has never had s'mores (I know.  I know.) So we will fire up the grill tonight and pop his s'more cherry.  Tomorrow we're "babysitting" our niece (basically being cool aunt & uncle.  There's a free screening of "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" nearby and we'll take her out for Mexican food and sweets and let her stay  up as late as she wants because we're the coolest.

beethery

I need to clean because my bestie is coming up next weekend for a chill day. And yes, it will take the entire week to clean the house because it is a fucking shitshow.

FI is working, so I will be playing a LOT of video games, and drinking a LOT of redbull and vacuuming every surface in the house. Maybe I'll clean the couch because it smells like dog ass.

Happy birthday @wandajune6!

I need this Friday, BAD.  On Monday I worked from about 9:00-2:30 (that's AM, yes people) and thanks to that I've just been totally out of whack all week.  I am traveling for work next week so I know that's going to be a doozy.  I'm buried in stuff I need to catch up on so I'm crossing my fingers for a quiet day so I can just put my head down and do my own work.

Fi's cousin's Sweet 16 is this Saturday which should be really fun, and I just CANNOT believe she is 16.  I feel so old, but "they grow up so fast!"  When I met this girl she was maybe 3 years old and toddling around the house.

My sister/MOH and FMIL are driving each other crazy about my shower (at least FMIL, is driving K crazy).  I just keep telling K, let her do what she wants but it's on her.  If she wants four different kinds of dessert, she can bring it.  Other than that I'm trying to duck and cover.

We ordered our wedding invitations and are just starting to freak out that it's getting so close.  Fi keeps randomly saying to me, "I'm so excited to marry you!"

I need winter to stop.  Just stop.  Stahp it.  I wanted Dunkin badly enough to wait outside the kiosk on the sidewalk (thanks, Manhattan) and I was like a popsicle by the time I came back inside.  Ick.

@lolo883 totally missed the ER part in your post!  Now I feel like a jerk.  Are you ok?

@holyguacamole79 My FMIL had never had smore's until New Years Eve last year.  We had a bonfire with FI niece and nephews, and that was her first time trying them.  I was like, whatttttt?!

@holyguacamole79 and @plainjane0415 not me, my mom. She fell at the bank and broke her hip...and in what seems to be a trend lately, refused the manager's offer to call an ambulance, and instead let him drive her home where she continued to try to walk on it. Common sense prevailed and the ambulance was called, which proceeded to get stuck in her driveway. PEOPLE. CALL AMBULANCES RIGHT AWAY. Fire department came and plowed the ambulance out, so she finally made it to the ER 4.5 hours after falling (I beat her there, it took them so long and she lives so far in the middle of nowhere). Finally got diagnosed with a broken femoral head a few hours after that, admitted to the ortho floor a few hours after THAT, and into surgery for a partial hip replacement about 4:30 the next afternoon (despite being told pre-op at noon and OR at 2). They couldn't repair the femur with pins, which would have been the ideal route for someone her age, because she impacted the bone too much by trying to walk.

It's been a LONG couple of days. She's doing well now.

ETA the bank is paying for evvvvvvvvvvverything. The manager has been super awesome about it all, even offered to go pick up my stepdad's birthday cheesecake that my mom was so worried about (it was his birthday when she fell), gave her the liability insurance info before she left the bank, and has called a few times to check in on her.

H is upstate snowmobiling this weekend. And I had big plans! Drinks with my best friends, celebrating my brother's birthday, shopping. But I've come down with a cold, so I'm currently in bed.

Happy Friday!

I reserved Mockinjay: Part 1 at the Redbox so DH and I can watch it tonight. I haven't seen it yet so I'm esxcited.

Tomorrow is devoted to cleaning, as usual. We're also cleaning the cars, inside and out tomorrow. The truck has been driven through an ton of crap with the snow and salt on the roads. And the car has a ridiculous amount of salt on it. 

Then we're going out for wings for a friends birthday and drinking Christmas wine after while the men watching hunting videos.

Sunday, I'll go to church while DH is at work. Then we will go see our parents during the day.

Sunday night, finally WALKING DEADDD!

Cake tasting with my MOH tomorrow, then she's supposed to come back to my house so we can finish the save the dates.  She volunteered to make them, but that was about 3 weeks ago, so I need her to get on it if she's going to do it, or tell me she can't so I can just order some.  I'm hoping by inviting her over and helping her, we'll be able to get it done this weekend so I can mail next week since we'll be right at the 6 month mark.

Yup, 9/12/15.  Nerdy FI realized it's 9+3+3.  And I know, seriously!  Six months, ack!  Everyone is telling me I'm in good shape (I have dress ordered, venue reserved, photographer booked, florist booked (it's my aunt so that was easy haha) and have narrowed down caterers) but I'm pretty much freaking out thinking about how much I still have left to do.  We got engaged Feb 4th.  

holyguacamole79

@lolo883, the cheesecake is important!  I'm glad your mom is better. 

JennyColada

Date night!

DH made reservations for here: http://farmshopca.com/santa-monica/menus/dinner/

Yumyumyumyum

Aside from that fun-ness, I have to call about some investments, schedule a massage (my Groupon is expiring soon!), work (and I work tomorrow, boo!), and I'd like to get my nails done.

tcnoble

Nothing exciting happening, which is okay because wedding in 22 days means I will have fewer and fewer "nothing to do" moments.

It's NASCAR weekend here in Vegas... so FI is wrapped up in that - he gets to drive one of the parade trucks for a driver after drive introductions, which is pretty cool. He's crossing fingers toes and eyes that he gets Jimmie Johnson on Sunday. I'm tagging along Sunday because we get VIP credentials. I'll still be bored after ten minutes.

I have 90 writing prompts to grade this weekend, and 90 animal research packets.

I'm going to my parents tonight because I miss them and want a hug. And to squeeze my little dog.

Mostly I just want to sleep. And damn Daylight Savings on Sunday for stealing an hour of precious sleep...
