FRIDAY chatter!
Morning ladies and happy Friday!
My mom is driving up later today and going to look at houses with H and me. We're going to show her the blue house that we love and I'm hoping to see a couple other houses as well. Our realtor is a friend of @GoldenPenguin and I'm really excited to finally meet her!
My mom's staying over and I'm going to take her to breakfast at my favorite local diner and then we're going to my aunt's house for the day. H will pick me up there when he gets off work.
SUNDAY IS FOOTBALL!!!!!! I am SO pumped for the season to start. I'll be leaving my house at 11:30am and getting to the bar at noon for the Eagles game. I go to the same bar every Sunday throughout the season so I'm excited to get back there and see everyone. Go birds!

Re: FRIDAY chatter!
@southernpeach89, I can't believe @LaPeanut1018's bachorlette party is next weekend... I know y'all will have a great time!
I am SO GLAD it's Friday. this is how I feel:
today I'm off at 2. it's supposed to be rainy this weekend and cool... YES!!! a high in the 70s tomorrow, and then next weekend we'll have another front with highs starting to get into the 60s. this is BIG NEWS in my part of the country!!
I'm going to pick up some things at alterations this afternoon and JUST IN TIME. I had to get a jacket taken in (@Swazzle, it's the green jacket from Old Navy, I tried it on again and this time an XS fit my arms, just had to bring the cuffs up, so FYI in case you were still looking at it) and I totally plan on wearing the heck out of it this fall. we're going to do our weekly grocery shop (it's actually fun, we love Sprouts) and have dinner at our favorite Mexican place on campus and then coffee and dessert at our favorite bakery. I think I'm going to get a hot drink tonight instead of my summer iced latte. FALL is coming!
Saturday is my first PMP class, so we'll get up early for that. H is going to drop me off at class and then go to the farmer's market to get a few things. I think he'll also go to the gym at his work (it's not far from my class) and work out. he plans on going with me most weeks, so he can go work out and do whatever. I am so glad, I like being chauffeured!
football season started here a week or two ago, but in this area it's all about college football. my mom and grandma are huge fans, so we have to plan family events around the OU game schedule. I like football season but I don't necessarily like football...
Tomorrow, FI and FBIL are going to pick up their suits - they came in. We're just hoping they were ordered correctly.
Sunday - Football day.
@Swazzle - Good luck with the house hunting! I hope the blue house stays in the running
@CocoBellaF - I hope your first class goes well! I'm still waiting to hear if my work is going to pay for my next PMP class...classes start next week so I really need to know if I can register.
Today's it's all overcast and crazy humid here and we're supposed to get thunderstorms later. I have a lovely day of email email email lined up...wooooooooooooooooooo.
In addition to work email, I will continue to obsessively refresh my personal email, because we STILL don't have our engagement pictures! I'm starting to get really annoyed. Based on a message from the photographer it sounded like they were uploading through the day yesterday...but then he found out that he didn't start doing that until last night, so who knows when they'll actually be available. This is the first bump that we've had with him, and I'm really disappointed. I think it's a bit ridiculous that we waited patiently for these, we didn't complain when he said it would take longer than usual because he was so booked up, and he's still waited until the very last minute to deal with making them available for us. Blah.
Have a nice weekend lined up though: FI and I are going to a wedding show this evening, and then we have tickets for a Leafs pre-season fan thing tomorrow. FI is super excited that hockey season is starting soon, he's very cute.
Conveniently, our photograph has a booth at the wedding show tonight...if we don't get our pictures today at least I know where to find him!

Morning, ladies. I didn't realize all of you were such big football fans! I watched the game yesterday through half time but got upset that the Packers were doing poorly so I went to bed early.
@swazzle, have fun at the bar! I feel like half the reason I gave up on the game yesterday was lack of wine....sad, I know.
@CocoBellaF - I'm like you, I like football season but don't watch the games that close.
@Southernpeach89 - What do you guys have planned for @LaPeanut1018 b-party? Just kidding, I'm guessing you can't tell.
--------------------------------------------------------
Today I'm working...busy day. Tonight H and I will watch some X-Files and a few other shows (we are getting back into watching the X-Files...which I love since Mulder reminds me so much of H).
Saturday H and I are shopping for the house and otherwise taking it easy. We gave up on doing our wood floors (they were turning out bad because of the stupid Home Depot equipment...it really isn't good to do your floors as many flooring people have now told us). Floor guy will come on Wednesday to start the job and *fingers crossed* H and I will be moved in in a few weeks!!!!
Sunday will be football watching for H and my mom. I'll probably cook and get a long walk in.
Going to be a nice weekend.
I just got a call from the vet, our cat had a high glucose level so they want to do additional tests it might be diabetes. Tonight we don't have anything exciting planned, we're making pizza for dinner and will probably just relax, maybe play some video games.
We have no plans for the weekend, the flooring was supposed to be here and H was going to do that but it's not here yet. So we may just relax do a few small things around the house and clean. We may also go down by H's parents house down the shore, it's pirates day this weekend. No real plans on Sunday, relax, watch some football. I have to be at the theater Sunday night, since the show I'm co-producing opens next Friday. I'd rather not, but oh well. I'm looking forward to getting more sleep too.
@SouthernPeach89 - That sounds like a BLAST! You gals will have so much fun!
@Peaseblossom55 - Hugs, sorry to hear about your kitty. Fingers crossed it isn't diabetes.
@minskat30 I hope not too.
@southernpeach89 sounds like such a fun time!!!
Wheeeeee.
@GoldenPenguin Why are you so pretty!! I'm jealous your dress is hanging in your closet and mine isn't in mine!!!
@severmilli12 OMG YOU ARE GETTING MARRIED TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel like most of my weekend is pretty much a non-event.
Tonight FI and I will go to the gym to work out and then go home and figure something out for dinner. We didn't get our hotdogs from Costco last night. Instead we bought some tilapia and made some super yummy fish tacos!
Tomorrow I'm going shopping with @southernpeach89 and our mom to hopefully find her a MOB dress. She's super petite and hard to shop for so I hope we find something as easily as we did last year for southern's wedding!
Sunday I don't have any plans. I should probably focus on organizing our laundry room and basement office since the weekends before the wedding are starting to fill up with things to do
@Peaseblossom55 - Aw, I hope your kitty is okay!
@Swazzle - Thanks. I've just hit my patience threshold, and don't like that our photog is frustrating us right now. We really like him, and I don't want to be annoyed with him!
@eilis1228 - I like both of those invites, but I think I like the purple ones better; it's so rich and pretty!
@GoldenPenguin - You have a dress! A pretty pretty dress! I would want to wear it around all the time...it's probably for the best that my dress is at my mom's.
@severmilli12 - YOUR WEDDING IS TOMORROW!!!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@Southernpeach89 - Good luck dress shopping and with your dress alterations!
@minskat30 - I'm not a huge football fan, FI is even though every season is a huge let down for us. I watch games with FI just to spend time with him (I might skip this one to try and clean up my house, we will see).
@Peaseblossom55 - Vibes for you kitty.
@Ollie08 - For some reason your post just reminded me of a bumper sticker I saw, it said 'My favorite 2 college football teams are Ohio State and anybody that is playing against Michigan'.
@eilis1228 - Since only 10-12 people are coming to my wedding, I didn't do invites. I thought about doing pocket invites for a time (just to not feel cheated out of invites). If you have older guests coming, online RSVPs probably aren't the best thing to do. So far all wedding printing I've done has been through VistaPrint - I was able to get groupons (they do them quite often).
@severmilli12 - Tomorrow!! Can't wait for pics!!!
Dress fitting went really well - it was way less than I expected and budgeted for (I thought it was going to be $300-350, it was $160!!). I'm just hoping she does an excellent job, she has really good reviews and was really helpful.
@Livleighton yea I've been looking a bit online about cats with diabetes and the possibility of that. I really hope it's not for her sake and because it doesn't sound like fun to deal with but we'll see
@lmcooper86 & @minskat30 thank you I should know the status by Monday at the latest
@severmilli12 Enjoy tomorrow I can't wait for pictures I'm sure it will be amazing!
