TGIF.  Wishing all a weekend with restful moments!

This week dragged, glad to be here.

Hoping to get some chores done tonight then just a low-key pizza/movie night.  Tomorrow is the kids' district's homecoming, they're not interested in going to the football game (great, me neither, since the marching band, cheerleaders and football players are all high school kids) but do want to decorate their school's float and march a bit.  Happy to go along with that, I'll just have to involve Uber so our car will be right where we step off from the parade. Sunday is the usual mix of mass, kitchen time, and I'd like to decorate in and out for fall too.

Oldest DD's counseling schedule had been tricky this school year so far, but her counselor shared last night that she had a schedule shift and I'm thrilled with DD's new schedule (time and frequency).  We were making the former schedule work, but sometimes things just work out, and that's always a beautiful thing.

Work has been nuts this morning. Partly timing, partly because so many people involved in this particular initiative are going to be out of the office a lot the next few weeks. Usually Friday is chill!

H's grandma (92) fell yesterday and broke her femur for the 2nd time in a few years. It's so sad - mentally she's totally good but really not doing well physically. So kind of mentally preparing for things to go downhill unfortunately. All the vibes and prayers would be welcome. 

Movie night and popcorn tonight. Trying to find a pizza that G likes - it was his favorite lunch at school and i'd love to do pizza fridays - but so far he hasn't loved any that we've tried! Golf lessons and a birthday party tomorrow, chill Sunday.

It's been a week here too. Fridays are usually pretty chill, so I'm trying to catch up on some things that I've been neglecting this week. I'm just not motivated to do it right now. I need a weekend. 

Hopefully a relatively chill one here. I'm keeping my sister's dog this week while they're at the beach, so I guess she'll get dropped off tonight. I might take them both to the brewery for happy hour because they're cute together. We've got a 5k with H's company tomorrow morning and then for the first time in forever I have a Saturday night at home to myself while H goes to neighborhood poker night. Sunday probably a hike and a dog friendly lunch spot. I probably should do some work catching up, but nah.

I am so sorry @Casadena. That is horrible. Sending you guys all of the thoughts and healing vibes. 

On a lighter note, are the kids old enough where you could go to an Italian deli and get pizza dough and toppings and do a family activity where you make the pizzas from scratch? Probably exhausting for you but it might be super fun for the kids and the ownership of making their own pizza might make them like the taste regardless. 

I am glad the week is over. H and I are in an existential crisis about moving out of the country and we have a little life decision paralysis about it too. Otherwise not too much else is happening. I got my labs done this morning. It would be great if they could result instantly because patience is not my middle name. I anticipate they won't be the best, but also won't be the worst. Probably my inflammatory markers will be elevated post COVID. H also got some labs done today. I'm feeling pretty stressed about his labs. He's had some health stuff lately that is making me really concerned because cancer is a realistic differential on the list. It's probably not that, but the fact that it's a real potential lead we have to rule out is making me nauseous. I need his labs to result asap.

Tomorrow I am going to see my grandparents. Sunday is a home day because my conference is next week and I switched my Friday for Monday. I need to remember that Monday I actually have to go to work, ha. It's my Grandma's 92nd birthday today and I'm trying to figure out if I will have time to bake, cool and decorate a cake before tomorrow at 11 am. She loves carrot cake and I have a solid recipe that she would love. It would also make me feel better about not getting her a physical gift. It's hard because at 92 she's trying not to accumulate anything else but it makes me feel weird not to give her anything. Tonight H and I are going to the phone store to hopefully upgrade his phone. His phone is a million years old, so old that some of the apps won't even work on it any more. He's put it off for 5 years, but it's finally time. lol. Hopefully interacting with the sales people doesn't give me my 13th reason.

I hope everyone has a good restful weekend!

Likely won't be restful here but I'm chaperoning a camping overnight which is a full day Saturday and into Sunday.  I love my co chaperone and we have an intimate group this time which is hopefully much easier than last year when we had something like 10 kids between us.  That said, it's daunting to manage a trip, know the rules and be at the mercy of the organizing and meal prep of other people while being unable to leave.

Sunday we get back mid afternoon and then Chiquita and I have to go to church late.  I'm crossing my fingers that Chiquita's wrist starts to heal because I'm hoping I don't need to call ortho next week.  Selfishly I would really love not one more medical appointment but I want to get her healed and back to being able to practice with her team.

Having a hard time getting things done today- really ready for the week to be over. We’ve adopted pizza and movie night (thanks @ei34) and M has been asking everyday if it’s Friday yet 😂. 

Wedding tomorrow and seeing the outsiders on Sunday!

We are having pizza and movie night tomorrow night with some friends! H is making pizza (fixing the dough as I type). We'll watch a Robert Redford movie in honor of his passing - yes we are old.

I had lunch with a friend today. They are going to have to make the decision to have one of their dogs put down. So difficult but they know it is the right thing to do. I feel so bad for her having gone through that several times myself ( as has she) but it never gets easy. 

We have been getting some final information about our trip to France next month. I'm getting excited. I need to read up on the specific places we are visiting. 

Sunday will be church and reading a book I need to finish.

Hi! Today has been busy. My WFH days always are because I’m working and doing house stuff. 

We’re going to a concert tonight. Tomorrow, I have a hair appt, need to make a baby bouquet for DefConn’s date, hoco pics and drop off, and then I’m supposed to go out for a girl’s night with SIL, niece, SIL’s bff, and a few other people. Sunday, I will likely be dead…but will resurrect to make football snacks and dinner. Lol
