OMG Finally The WEEKEND!!

Re: OMG Finally The WEEKEND!!

  • @swazzle - Damn, I'm screwed then.  I couldn't do it without a drink before...and I bleed profusely when cut as it is.
  • @beanbot2002 - I think that's what I'm talking about.  it has seams in between the plastic "edging".  one day, we want to rip it out and tile it so it'll be easier to clean, and get a glass swinging door instead of the slide door.

    @buddysmom80 - that sounds like a good idea!!!  I'll try that.  the sponge, when wet, should squeeze in between the cracks and get all the junk.
  • Damn you girls are making me want new ink!

    Tonight I'm getting ice cream with my GF's (one is KU, so happy hour was out, boo) and I'll be officially asking them both to be my BM's. 

    Tomorrow I'm going to visit my 'third' Grandpa in the hospital. He and his W are my parents neighbors, and are like a third set of GP's to my sis and I. H has developed scar tissue on his lungs that is growing much faster than expected and doesn't have much time left.  So FI and I are going to visit and sort of say our goodbyes. I lost all my bio GP's really quickly in my teens, so this one is really hitting me hard...

    After the visit, FI and I are going to my parents for a dinner in my uncle's honor, so that should be fun.

    Sunday I will be working on drafting a few motions while listen to the Browns game (I refuse to give up hours of my life to watching them) and then my cousin, her H and her 2 kids are coming over for dinner.

  • @lennonkdc - I'm really sorry to hear about your grandpa, third or not, you are in my thoughts. It is never easy loosing someone you love...there are no word of advice other than to be honest with your emotions whatever they are rather than trying to be someone else. 

  • Friday and no school!

    @swazzle - $13! that is awesome!
    @buddysmom80 - feel better!
    @lennonkdc - sorry to hear about your third grandpa. It is hard to lose some close to you.

    Not too much planned here :-) I am also in Colorado and my city has basically been cut off from everywhere else at this point! Probably hang out with BF, maybe go take a peak at the raging river, lol! Still trying to figure out if work has been canceled !

    @psychbabe314 - BF and I don't have much planned because of the flooding too. We were going to go camping but there is no way that is happening now.

    I guess we're just going to have a weekend in.

    I'm not sure where you are in Colorado but I hope you aren't anywhere too dangerous! Stay safe!

    @bethsmiles - thanks! sucks that your camping trip is off :-( I am not anywhere extremely dangerous. I am right in the middle of town, so I have not seen a lick of flooding, but the roads out of town are all overflowing and some are coming apart from what I hear! A weekend in is nice though! What are you guys going to do instead?
  • @psychbabe314 - We're not sure what we are going to do yet. We might rent some movies for tonight. It will probably end up being a lazy weekend.


  • @lennonkdc, I'm sorry your third grandfather isn't doing well. Lots of hugs!
  • @lennonkdc So sorry to hear about your 3rd grandfather. Sending virtual hugs your way!!

    Also, thinking of everyone in CO. I've got family in CO Springs, and my best friend lived in Ft. Collins for 4 years. All those fires, and now flooding ... you guys are so cool and awesome, so why does this happen?!!

    Weekend was going to be pretty sucky--Yom Kippur tonight through tomorrow evening. However, I'm desperate to see my best friend, who currently has Fridays and Saturdays off, so I'm going to be a bad Jew for the first time ever and not observe. Tonight, I'm now going to eat dinner with my partner, try to do some laundry, and relax. And tomorrow, my friend will come up and get brunch with us, and then we'll ditch my guy and go get our nails done. We'll then probably watch a movie or something TV together and maybe do an early dinner.

    I am BEYOND anxious about Sunday. It's my paternal grandmother's 80th birthday and my dad and his brothers are all hosting a big party. The problem? I'm estranged from my dad (very acrimonious estrangement on both ends), which makes paternal family events very stressful. And of course, I didn't get my invitation to the party until AFTER my partner and I had planned our engagement date and dinner. Had I known that I was going to have to be around my dad's family this weekend, I would have suggested to my partner that we wait till my birthday (a week later) to get engaged.

    Obviously, I don't know how things will go on Sunday, but I'm very anxious about having people ask us about the wedding, especially asking us if my dad is invited, or assuming that they'll be invited. We actually only plan to invite my paternal grandparents and my godmother (my dad's cousin), and no aunts or uncles or first cousins. We're going to lie our asses off and say that we haven't even started planning, just that we'd like to get married next fall, but beyond that we haven't started anything concrete.

    In reality ... we've picked our venue/catering and are in the process of booking it officially. And we already have our guest list. lolwhooooops.

  • @Phira - Family drama sucks! Telling them you have nothing planned yet sounds like a good idea to me!

    Also AW your venue please?


  • @bethsmiles We're actually split between TWO venues ... but they're owned by the same group--Saphire Event Group. So basically the proposal we got would apply to either location, and it comes down to whichever one we like better (neither one is booked on our date). There's the Estate, which is smaller (only one event room with a small bar area) but has the most beautiful grounds, and the Villa, which has several big rooms and a separate cocktail hour area.

    I prefer the Estate and my partner prefers the Villa. We're going to set up a second tour at the end of the month and bring our parents with us. We hope they'll help us choose (aka make him change his mind and want the Estate).
