Thirsty Thursday!

pinkcow13

It's finally Thursday FI left for his bachelor party this morning. Well, technically last night since he stayed at BM's house, and BM's dad drove them to the airport this morning. So I'm kinda on my own till Monday! Kinda because MOH will actually be staying with me while he's gone. She had an incident with her neighbor (she's okay now, just kinda stressed to go home), and she didn't want to stay there anymore. She is supposed to move in with her bf next month, so he took all her things with him until it's okay for her to move in with him (long story). So I told her she could stay with me for a bit.

Today I'm planning on working on wedding stuff all day. It's kinda slow at work so I'll have some time. The hotel totally screwed up our block, so I have to square that away, and I have to confirm our cupcake tower. And follow up with the venue, and our officiant. Crap, and figure out where we're getting ready, finalize the time line for the photog and figure out our ceremony music. I can't believe we're at less than a month away!!!!

What are you guys up to today?

Just killing time checking the registry and weather every five minutes. Y'know, standard stuff for 8 days out from the wedding. And dreaming of the weekend.

I am getting sick. My throat feels like it is on fire. I am thinking about going home early, but I have SO much stuff to do. =(

My allergies are kicking my ass today. My throat is all swollen. Today is pretty slow. I have my trainer and then am taking spin. And hopefully by the time I get home, most of our bathroom reno will be done.

I start editing my novel today, which I'm terrified of. It's always nerve-wracking to go back to a story and not be sure if you're suddenly going to figure out it's all wrong. Other than that, I have running this afternoon, need to do some laundry, and other than that the world is my oyster. FI is working until 9 tonight. I predict much video-gaming.

I finally got a full night's sleep last night!  I hadn't been able to sleep three nights in a row, and then yesterday my coworkers took a three hour lunch and so it was time for me to go home by the time they got back.  I was Level 10 Hangry.  SO helped me with dinner and made me a margarita.  Today should be much better.  It's SO's sister's birthday, so we'll be celebrating with more margaritas and tacos tonight.

I'm interviewing someone for the assitant position today that I know I won't offer it to. She is a current employee and she wouldn't be a good fit for the job but want to give her the courtesy of an interview.

We just had a meeting with the rehearsal dinner venue and then we're meeting with the wedding venue this afternoon so I'm working from home today. 

Tonight one of my friends is coming over for dinner so I'm making goat cheese ravioli with sweet potatoes and brown butter sage sauce.

I can't believe how close you are!!!! Are you guys completely done with everything?

sarawifenow it's probably this city weather. It's kinda been all over the place. Oh well, at least it's overall warmer!

climbingwife My allergies start flaring around this time.Last spring they weren't too bad so I hope it's the same this year.

flutteringinfl I'm probably gonna get my run in at the gym which I kinda hate, I love running outdoors. But I think maybe I should get my dress for my bridal shower after work today. Then I'll definitely have to do some cleaning at home.

I'm on day 4 of attempting to retrain myself into a morning person. I'm finding the hardest part is just getting out of bed, but once I am then I am good. Which is progress from the grumpus that I usually am. I think it helps having a goal in mind and a reason to get up and get going.

Really need to do some laundry tonight. FI and I are having a date weekend away and I hate coming home to laundry. Need to come home to a clean house after a couple days away otherwise I get irritated.

YUM. This sound SO yummy!

SoontobeMrsKlein I failed miserably this week at getting up early. Tomorrow is my final fitting though, so I hope that's enough motivation for me to get my butt out of bed early! I'm leaving work at 4 to get to my appointment.

I was never a morning person until my mid-twenties, when I started doing this thing where I get up at least half an hour earlier than I need to, always. The extra time to sit down with a coffee and a book before I have to start my day has totally changed me. I'm now one of those people who pretty much bounces of bed and immediately gets moving because I look forward to a few minutes of peacefulness afterwards. I love it.

I took a friend out for a birthday dinner last night and we have another birthday party tomorrow night, so tonight I'm just going to hang out at home, get some laundry done because we want to try to go away this weekend, and make FI a decent dinner for once this week because he's been working late so much.

Last minute decluttering before the cleaners get here. Except that I am currently on the couch with my coffee and screw decluttering!

Thursdays my friend has off, so she usually comes over and we share a bottle of wine. Other than that the only thing on my plate is laundry. There is always laundry...

I'm finding it easier on days where FI works because he leaves for work when I am usually getting out of bed, so now we just get up together. However when he's off (which is more often than not), I find it really hard to leave the warm snuggly coccoon.

However, having a full extra hour more than usual this morning was actually really nice. Usually I am rushing around in a panic trying to get ready. This morning I got up, did my workout, got FI a lunch and coffee made. Had a shower at a leisurely pace. Had to time to whip up some homemade salad dressing to go with lunch. It was so nice to not be frantic.

After work I am meeting FI and my brother at Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner and then we are going to take some stuff over to FSIL's for a garage sale she is having this weekend. Come on, Friday!!
