Friday I took my second spin class and didn't die! My tush also doesn't hurt as much. Then we went to our friend's holiday party at Westchester Burger Co. They serve a burger with grilled cheeses for the bun. I had a bite, and I felt my arteries clog.
Saturday we went shopping and ran lots of errands. Then I cleaned and did laundry like a maniac since MIL is coming. After that I decorated the tree.
Sunday, MIL flew in. We hung out and then we took her out to dinner. Then this morning, she managed to blow like 2 fuses at 5am. I have no idea how she did it, and H couldn't get the lights to work again. Then they mysteriously turned on themselves. WTF?
Re: How was everyone's weekend?
Love your Christmas tree @climbingbrideny!
Our weekend was nice. Friday night I went to happy hour with my coworkers. Came home and just hung out with H the rest of the night. He said something incredibly stupid on his part that led to us sleeping in separate bedrooms but apologized in the morning.
Saturday was spent just lazing around. We went to dinner in the evening and had some awesome food. Went out for a drink after dinner and then home to go to bed.
Yesterday was finally a productive day. I got the house all cleaned and the tree is FINALLY decorated. It's been sitting there with lights on for over a week with no ornaments. Everything was perfect until the dog decided this morning that the tree skirt made an excellent blanket on which to chew his toys...in the middle of the living room. He thinks every blanket is his so until we've got presents under the tree, no tree skirt.
I also got to see my sister's new puppy yesterday! She came over to our house to pick up an extra bed that we have and brought the new little pup. She's an 8 week old Rottweiler and the sweetest, wrinkly little baby. My yorkie looked GIANT next to her but in mere weeks, she'll end up bigger than Fred.
You win prettiest tree!
I went to NYC this weekend. On Saturday, FI and I saw How the Grinch Stole Christmas at MSG, and then we were supposed to go to dinner at the Empire State Building but he got a little too drunk and we had to go home lol (someone call Tarpon, obviously he is a raging alcoholic and needs rehab!!). Yesterday we went to the big tree at Rockefeller, and then went to the Observation Deck at Rockefeller, which I had somehow never done before. All in all, it was really fun!!

Friday was the work holiday lunch, so I may or may not have drunk the equivalent of a bottle and a half of Moscato. I didn't win any prizes, but I've won twice in the past so I'm good. It was nice to hear some new names be called in the drawings! FI and I dropped his daughter off to babysit and went out to dinner after that.
Saturday night I had to shop and take my rings in for their 6-month inspections. Then we went and watched the Nutcracker. Loved it as usual!
Yesterday we did some chores, and I watched FI and FSD hang Xmas lights on the roof. My Xmas shopping is pretty much done, so bring on Xmas day!
Our weekend was okay. Friday night we had an impromtu dinner with my parents since they were in town Christmas shopping (they live about 40 minutes out in the country away from civilization).
Saturday I woke up with a cold so I opted out of the Christmas-themed bridal shower that I've been bitching about for a week, but FI and I got all of our Christmas shopping done. Saturday afternoon/night was spent on the couch drinking wine and watching tv.
Sunday we went to my parents' house so FI could help my dad build a new tree stand, and now FI's cold is back with a vengence and he definitely didn't need to go to work today but he won't listen to me.
Overall, the weekend wasn't long enough and I'm in a grumpy mood today =(
Eh...I've had better.
Friday...well ya'll know my Friday.
Saturday...I volunteered at my shelter and had a lot of fun with the pups and kitties.
Sunday...I moped around all day.
Everyone's weekend sounds fun and actually productive! Mine wasn't so much on the productive side. My weekend was pretty good though
Friday, we did nothing ha. We cleaned a little
Saturday, we had lunch with my mom at a place called Billy's. We have never been but it turned out really good! Afterwards V and I opened the presents my parents got him because he won't be with me during Christmas. Then we relax and kinda clean.
Sunday, we did nothing and sorta clean. We are just in lazy mode since our semester is over. Well except for V, he has been applying to grad schools.
I don't know why but it really upset me, so it kind of ruined my whole Saturday and I was up at 4am Sunday morning feeling sad. Fiance comforted me though, so that was very, very helpful of him. Sunday I was still a bit down, but much better.
We went to his parents' house to visit for a bit, picked out our STDs, and then went home where we had dinner and watch Bridesmaids (his choice as he's never seen it). I also made him 7 layer bars so he was happy about that. We started our Christmas cards too and I think we'll be able to send them out tomorrow.
We were supposed to go to a folk music radio show Sunday night, but since I was still a little bummed and tired from lack of sleep we just went home.
Looking forward to Wednesday since I get to work from home, and I'm off Thursday and Friday. We're going to the Christkindle Market in Chicago on Thursday, and meeting with a potential officiant on Friday.
This weekend (Thursday and Friday) will bw great since I'm taking Wednesday off as well since it is our 10th (dating) anniversary! H booked us tickets to the first available showing of The Hobbit, and we're going out for a nice dinner. The rest of the weekend will be spent lazing about, and going to a coworker's housewarming/game night.
