Snarky Brides

Tuesday Morning!!

Happy Tuesday everyone!  How was your night last night?  What's on the agenda for today?  Last night we had some friends over for dinner - our one friend is an amazing cook and he made macaroni and cheese.  Except...it was like the most incredible mac n cheese ever.  He didn't have any milk so he used BEER and then he used all these wild cheeses...it was SO GOOD.  FI and I talked about it all night hahaha.

Tonight we have dance lessons and I'm making waffles!  Pretty excited.  I also have to get in 4 miles since I skipped yesterday :)

Re: Tuesday Morning!!

  • There is a big conference in town with lots of FI friends from grad school attending so we went out to dinner with on of them last night. On the way I stopped by a potential rehearsal dinner place and I am excited about it. I have a job interview tomorrow and am trying to keep my expectations low.

    Good luck tlc!

    I didn't feel very good yesterday evening, so it was early to bed for me. I'm usually a very light sleeper, but I must of been really feeling awful because I slept right through FI coming home from work late and the dog going nutso. 

    Today I have a midafternoon class to teach at county probation followed by a late meeting at the local community college. I'm annoyed I forgot about the meeting because now I'll miss spinning tonight and I overslept and skipped the gym this morning. I get cranky when I miss my workouts during the week.

  • Good morning.  I haven't shown my face on this board in while... time to fix that.

    Beer mac and cheese sounds amazing.  Must try.

    cnf - what kind of class are you teaching?

    [QUOTE]Edie, it totally sucks, too, when you leave work at 5 and it's already dark.  No wonder bears hibernate. I need to send my H to the grocery store.  Meal planning sucks this week b/c he's going OOT for a job interview on Thursday and won't get home until late Friday night.  Balls. alois, dance lessons?  <strong>for the wedding?</strong>

    Yes maam! His parents gifted us with some lessons for Christmas so we've been taking them for the last month.  We're not doing anything super coreographed...just learning some basic steps so we don't end up doing the high school sway lol (not that there's anything wrong with that!).  I'm excited to see how it turns out, and it's nice to have something to focus on.

    And I agree...this darkness is just horrible.  I used to wake up at 5am and run in the sunlight but now it's still dark when I'm on my way to work at 7:30am!!

  • Elle, your siggy picture is so cute!

    I teach substance abuse prevention. For probation though we do life skills. Today is decision making involving their favorite topic of discussion, marijuana. They loooove to argue me on it.

    [QUOTE]alois, we did that, too.  Groupon actually had a thing for buy 1, get 1 free and we bought 2 of them for 4 lessons.  We probably still looked silly but whatever.  It was fun.  Wow, less than a month out for you! 
    Posted by jcbsjr[/QUOTE]

    Yeah I know we won't look suave or anything but it's SO much fun and my FI absolutely loves it (so do I).  I feel like it's brought us even closer!  We have a blast practicing at home and just figuring it out, I highly recommend it for everyone :)  What song did you dance to?

    And I can't believe how fast time is flying by! 25 days today...18 work days!!  So excited to get the heck out of this office for a few weeks.  My last day is Nov. 8 and I don't go back until Nov. 27....GLORIOUS.

  • Morning ladies!

    I'm late to the party, I've been getting caught up on work since I was off yesterday. I cleaned most my house and went to the grocery store. We did a fend for ourselves night last night, H ended up with sushi and I had a sandwich and tomato soup.

    I got a summons for jury duty, I can NOT be off work right now, so the boss may be writing me a letter, plus who the hell can afford to be off for 2 weeks with no pay? I have to send in a questionere, and one of the questions is if I or anyone I'm related to has been convicted of a crime, lucky me I have felons for family members. :)

    Oh and it's Petit court which will be a snore fest.

    Al-have fun at your lessons!

    I pick up my wedding dress today, Super Excited!!!!

    [QUOTE]kd I thought if one got jury duty you still got paid?
    Posted by Edie Bee[/QUOTE]

    No, unless you have personal time to take. You get paid about 6 dollars a day from the state. But you cant get in trouble from your employer, they have to let you off. But if I get called in, it will be for 2 weeks. I cant do that at this time of year. We are a small office and we have someone out for cancer treatments. And no one can do my job.

    Sorry JCB, went to lunch.

    Petit is just for small lawsuits, usually involving insurance companies.

    if you were in FL maybe you'd be on the jury for the staged accident that some woman planned and now she's suing me. because my insurance wouldn't give her my policy limits- AND she's out of pocket nothing!

  • They were involved, I couldn't prove it. She stopped at a GREEN LIGHT very quickly. and I couldn't stop in time. As soon as she opened the car door she was moaning about how much pain she was in, I was goign about 15 when I hit her. It's been almost 3 years now. and She's just now filed a law suit- it's been with the insurance this long.

  • It's 5 years I think?

  • perhaps- my insurance company says it'll settle, we have a "mediation" but not til February. blah-
