Happy Friday Everyone!

It's another gorgeous day here in Toronto - little humidity and 28º. LOVE it!

We're in the process of narrowing down what we want to do for our 4 hours on Oahu the first day of our trip. I'm not really big into Waikiki, so we're thinking of wandering around Chinatown or going to Ala Moana mall and hitting up the Japanese department store there.

How I miss Japanese department stores!

Our big plans for the weekend include a deep clean of the apartment (I just finished waxing the bathroom and kitchen floors) and counting the change in our honeymoon jar. We started collecting loose change and bills a year before the wedding and then used the money from that to fund a few special nights out on our wedding trip. Immediately after the wedding we started putting change back in and started from scratch again. The jar is one of those Costco sized coffee canisters and it's filled to the brim (extra exciting when you consider that Canadian money has 1$ and 2$ coins)! So, we're looking forward to counting all that up. I'm hoping for a good 700-800$ in change.

What's going on this weekend with you? Anything exciting?

    Haha!  We're the same way.  Well, I can be careless about leaving my change around everywhere so a few years back DH decided to collect everything he found & put it in a tin can.  No bill bigger than $5 but in his first weekend of collecting, he found $180.
    Surprised  Apparently I am absolutely terrible with cash.  I wonder how much is in there now...

    I fly to China tomorrow.  Lots of packing tonight!

    Kaesha, I wish we could collect the change but we always end up using it for pool. 

    We are a full house with kids. My BF's son is on a pre-college road trip and in town. BF and I were pregers together, wow 18 years ago, so my daughter and him are hanging out.  She invited 4 of her closest friends to stay the night and meet him.  Good kids, just a lot of them.  FH is so great he just finished bbq for all of them.  Sat. more OT for FH and I will clean, of course after the kids leave.  Sunday, we need time together, I don't care what we do I just told him I need attention. LOL
