It's FINALLY Friday

Jeezy criminy it took forever to get here. What's up for the weekend?

Max has consistently been sleeping past 7.  Last night I geared myself up to get a workout in first thing this am.  M2 woke up at 440, but I was still determined.  I had just started to pump and the little stinker woke up.  Cue a meltdown from him because he was getting drowned in milk.  Then a meltdown from 6let because I dared to get his milk before he woke up.  Then a meltdown from 2 because she wanted a shirt.  I told DH the only workout I'm getting is one in patience.

I'm taking them out for lunch then to the store to get cupcakes for after dinner.  Tonight is her favorite spaghetti and meatballs then presents. 

Tomorrow morning we have pictures.  I'm taking lots of snacks and bribery.  I need one good naked baby shot to go with the ones we have of the other 2 and one decent 2 yo shot.  I hope that's not asking too much.

Sunday is church and hopefully DH will fix the silverware drawer that's been broken for 3 wks.

Today is THE day. Gah.  I don't know when he's scheduled to sit down with his boss.   All signs are pointing to DH being 'the guy', but it means nothing until the offer is made.  

Tonight:  Kiddo is going home with a friend and spending the night.  Our sitter is having a free 'parent's night out'.  We plan on going out for dinner...either to celebrate or drown our sorrows.  

Tomorrow: Suprise bday party for a friend.  It's kid-friendly too.  

Sunday: No idea.

Good luck today!!! 

My funny/sad this morning.  I'd had potato chips as I was nursing Max to sleep.  He had crumbs all through his swaddle this morning.  Ooops.

TheMrsC23

LOL. Poor Max.   Hopefully the chip crumbs weren't too itchy.  

DefConn always ended up with food on him if I held him while I was eating.  I'm just not that coordinated.

Good luck today, conn!

6, I remember the drownings.  The girls would give me the worst looks.

Today is day 2 of having no voice.  I've had a cold, but I don't feel terribly bad.  I woke up yesterday with no voice and it was so bizarre.  I've never lost my voice before.

All 3 kids are going to stay the weekend with the ILs.  DH and I stayed up talking about what we were going to do this weekend and we didn't even settle on anything.  We're excited.  We haven't been alone overnight in almost 6 months.

My stomach is so far off from anxiety that I just gagged when taking the trash out and it wasn't even that smelly.   I need to find my damn zen or something.

I'm all about the giving this morning.  I came into work today to find out my first big job to "manage" is being put off 2 weeks, dang weather.  So here I sit just staring at paper.  And it seems no one understands my inability to use OFFICE right now and how it affects me.  Hello???

Morning.  My mom brought me a canoli filled paczki yesterday so I ate that for breakfast.  It was delicious.  And way too rich and sugary.

We're going to dinner at a Cajun place with the ILs tonight that I love, don't know if I'll be able to handle any of the spices

This weekend, we're spending the weekend working on our friends' basement remodel.  Again.  I'll probably take a couple of naps and not work that hard, because I'm kind of over it.

We just have SSDD chores and a street clean up this weekend.  I'm going to be on the search for a new RSS reader to switch over to and learning website design on Squarespace to see if I want to use it.

I want my tax refund to get here dangit.  I've got some plans I need to pull the trigger on and I can't do that until it's here.

Tomorrow we're going to a children under 3 service at the new synagogue. I'm excited, nervous, and a little terrified. Time to make some local friends... with kids!

Tomorrow evening we're meeting up with one of our friends who is 85% sure he's joining us on the Playa this summer and one of our campmates. We're trying to move that percentage up.

Sunday I want to work on babyshower gifts, and some "thank you" crafting. I also need to finish the necklace I've been working on for my aunt, since we're seeing her for Passover.

I can't believe M2 is 2 already!  Happy Birthday  to her!

I'm looking forward to a lot of ME time this weekend.  I'm going OOT tomorrow to visit a friend for her birthday festivities.  I'm looking forward to 4 hours in the car in PEACE, listening to whatever music I want, or maybe just the sound of silence.   And then I hope to get my party on a little bit tomorrow night.  Maybe do brunch on Sunday and then come back home to the sh!tstorm that is my life right now.

I'm borrowing my dad's car for the weekend for the trip, so tonight I have to hurry around to pick up DH and DD, go to my dad's house, pick up the car, blah, blah, blah.   I cannot wait to get into the car tomorrow morning and have some peace.

Thank god it is finally the weekend. 

Good thoughts all around for everyone! Conn, how soon should youhear something? Taw, I've had that happen, fine one day, no voice the next, but you feel better, just weird. 6, I am a wee bit jealous M3 is STTN. We had a weekend 2 weeks ago where Bean went for 6 hours, it was all a ruse to remind us how much we like sleep. Dixie, hope you make all sorts of new friends tomorrow!

Baby girl and I are sick this week, again. Best way to spend maternity leave, remodeling my kitchen and fighting off 2 rocking head colds and for me at least the subsequent bronchitis. Baby is handling things better, congested and coughing but managing well. My goal is to rest up today, which was the goal yesterday, but we had to run between my grandmother's now old nusing facility to the new, in home one she is now in. I dont think I mentioned it here, but we admitted her to hospice at the beginning of the month. And the care she was getting at the bigger place was becoming horrendous. Now she is one of 6 patients with live in care for about half the monthly cost. All around good things.

I want AF's weekend. 

Jojo- I have been seriously blessed with good sleepers.  They may wake up early, but they have always gone down easy and sttn early.  I hope you both feel better soon.

IDK what's up for this weekend. Maybe shopping, weeding, take DD to the zoo, clean house, sleep in. A little bit of all the above

We are bringing the boys to the Arch tomorrow! 

We pass it on the way to the ILs, where we went on Tuesday aftenoon. Dex said, "I want to drive THROUGH it!" Well, of course you can't drive through it, but I figured they were old enough now that they would actually enjoy a trip. We could go over there, let them run on the giant field underneath, and even take the 60s-version-of-futuristic pods up to the top. They will dig it. AND we can take the train over there. Huge win for the preschool set. 

Sunday, I'll probably have to work. Somehow, I ended up WAY overcommitted to too many projects. I mean, I'm kindof past "gah! deadlines" to "Well, there's not 20 hours between now and 5:00, so I might as well just get on the treadmill and watch Jon Stewart." 

At least the weather is getting nice here. It's supposed to get up to 69 this afternoon (though weather.com has the temp going up 10 degrees in 2 hours. Not sure if that'll really happen). If it's not too windy, I'll actually go walk in the park!

<div>Uh-oh. I have a mild cold, too - mostly just a sore throat - and I can't lose my voice. Can't. It's a week before Holy Week. I've been eating Cold-Eez like they're candy. </div><div>

Conn, how soon should you hear something? 

I'm hoping before lunch.  DH found out on good authority that two other candidates were slotted for their follow-up at 9:30am and 10am.  DH was not slotted, just had verbal confirmation from his boss that his follow up was also going to include his review.    It's 10:40am now...So we'll see.  

He did call at 8:15 this morning...But it was asking about this surprise party we're going to tomorrow.  Made my heart leap.  Jerk.

DG, I thought the museum in the arch was really cool too.  I was a bit clausterphobic going up in it, but I thought it was super fun

**O-Face**

I never actually said my weekend plans.  Heading north to spend time with my college friends.
Should be a rip-roaring time given that last year my friend threw a tantrum over a board game.  LOL.

It was "special".

Oh no!  ::voice vibes::

6 - I drive by your 'hood on my way out of town.  I'll swing by and pick you up!

Tonight DH has to work late and DS was in a mood this morning so I have no idea what we'll be doing. Tomorrow DH works again, so it'll be chore day. Sunday DH mentioned going out to a bar for St. Patrick's day and a friends birthday. I wouldn't be drinking and quite honestly, I don't know anyone there so I'm not really inclined to say yes. I would rather go shopping by myself.
