Soooo....whatcha doooooin??

Even though we got to stay home this weekend, I HAVE BEEN SO FARKING BUSY.

You name it, I did it. Ok, maybe not THAT drastic, but PRETTY MUCH. I'm tired.

What are you guys doing?

Re: Soooo....whatcha doooooin??

  • procrastinating cleaning my 2nd bathroom.  I skyped with the parents, and with my brother and SIL who are in Germany for a few months - so that was cool.  FI has been at work all day.  :(
  • Yeah, Scott's working today, too. I just got off the driving range and my arms are SHOT.

    What are they doing in Germany? i haven't seen you around for awhile, Loops! Good to see you!

  • I lurk a lot, but don't have time to post and stick around to converse so I don't usually bother.
    My brother got transferred there for 6 months for some training.  Got married July 3, moved to Germany July 6.  They're coming back for a few days for my wedding, and should be back for good in January.
  • Well, that was kind of a busy week for them now, wasn't it!?? Holy smokes!

  • PS good to see you too.  Between my full time and part time jobs I have been working a bunch, then wedding planning, and training for the Komen 3-day which is next weekend.  I wish I had more time to Knot :).
  • Yeah, but so far they are having fun.  SIL is a little frustruated at the language barrier.  She is keeping a blog which is fun to read.  She posted about being homesick on Friday and mentioned Cliffs bars so I may put together a care package for her.  Not sure what else to include besides Cliffs bars.
  • Aww!! Good for you for doing the 3 day! Scoetto is doing it, too! woot!

    Wow, your wedding is coming up super fast. Holy smokes.

  • Tell me about it.  I mailed invites on Wednesday.   I have a few DIY things to finish up for centerpieces and the card box, programs, and later escort cards, but I'm trying to be realistic about what I can really accomplish in 9 weeks :).
  • Pooh!! Where have YOU been young lady?

  • Right now? Having a chai tea and trying to wake up. Will shower shortly, and then write a selection criteria for a job I'm applying for. 

     

    My weekend was also spent busy at home. I decided to tackle the 'study'... which is looking remarkably more study-like now. 

  • Sun!  Hello - good morning to you :).
  • Morning! 

    How is the weekend treating you girls? 

  • It goes by so quickly... too fast.
  • where have I been? trying to find a damn job. and when I'm not trying to find a job, I'm reading a book I checked out from the library that is super long and kicking my butt. and when I'm not doing that, my H takes me out on dates. :)

    morning Sun!

  • Morning Pooh! Any luck on the job front?
  • Waiting for my lovely FI to get home so we can go out for Margaritas- and tomorrow he's taken the day off, and we're going to a local(ish) casino for a few hours. Yay!
  • *sigh* some. I got 2 phone calls last week, which is 100% better than the previous 3 months have been. one person has possible job openings, the other has not replied to my reply. at this point, I'm mostly putting it in God's hands. He'll have me where He wants me.

  • Totallly watching LOTR as well.  Just relaxing with the computer, the movie, and the puppy.  She's curled up next to me, and I'm indulging her.  Oh who am I kidding; I love petting her!
  • Knitti - that sounds like fun!  I could go for a margarita right now.  
  • Well, my fingers are crossed for one of those phone calls leading somewhere for you, then!

    What happened to your previous job? I am obviously out of the loop.

  • Oh, I can't WAIT! It's my 'shot' night, so I try to drink up beforehand, not that it hurts less, but it makes it easier. Oh! And when we get home, we'll probably watch the new True Blood. - stellar night for me, all 'round. Apart from the evil shot.

    I quit it last winter so I could finish school and plan the wedding without the added stress of a 4-hour-per-week job. it was an ER tech position, which is basically a nurses' aide but in the ER. it was a student job. now that I am all gradumacated and licensed and shite, I can't find an actual grown-up nurse job. go figure.

  • hi everyone!
    I just got back from picking up/escorting Dh home from work. We had a crazy destructive wind/rain storm sweep through the area so I didn't want him coming home on the mountain on his Ninja without me. Tomorrow I get to call tree removal people to come deal with the downed trees in my yard and go help my dad with his garage. He's hoping he can fix it without tapping into insurance but we'll have to see.
  • doing some cleaning up the yard after the crazy storm we got today. one of our trees fell on the neighbor's fence and i don't know if my tomato plants are gonna recover.
  • Sounds like storms are going around.  We've had a seriously windy day, with the sustained wind at 22 mph, with gusts up around 40.  It's stopped now though, so that's good. 

    Other than that, I took a long ass nap earlier. 
  • It's been BEAUTIFUL here. Seriously. Just beautiful. 80 degrees and sunny. Maybe a little hotter. Just like I like it.

  • we had 70+ mph gusts today. i was seriously freaked. just watching everything going crazy outside, seeing the tree go down, just feeling helpless and scared. usually i enjoy storms but this one was way crazy. and it rained so hard it was coming out of the gutters like waterfalls.
  • we had a crazy ass storm last night similar to what the DC area had today. very violent and over very quickly. our power was going on and off.

  • Storms are all fine and dandy, but it's that darn wind. I HATE THE WIND.
