  I have one more call to get through this afternoon but that's the only "big" thing I have to get through this week.  Company extended summer hours through the end of September, so that's exciting and I'm planning to leave at noon tomorrow.  I need to get through my at-home to do list tomorrow afternoon that i've been putting off all week!
  
  We may finally pull the trigger and go see Hamilton this weekend.  There are still a lot of tix available and they usually discount them 24 hours before the show, so we're just playing it by ear.  
  
  Very excited to have an extra weekend day, our fall is already starting to get crazy busy on weekends so it will be nice to have time to both get a lot done this weekend AND relax

  We're apparently getting new printers at work and it's a shit show. We had no notice. These printers are HUGE and we're now rearranging the offices. So angry. 
  
  Already have holiday weekend brain. We're having a BBQ tomorrow at work so that will be fun.

  It's my FRIDAAAAAYYY!
  
  It's also Prudie day.    
  
  We leave for our annual Labor Day trip tomorrow.  This week has been so hectic that I haven't packed a damn thing for the most part.  I did finally put together DH's cousin's baby shower gift (we missed it, but she's going to be there this weekend) and DH's other cousin's baby's 1st bday gift. 
  
  I've been wanting to do a subscription box for a minute now.  I've heard some complaints about fabfitfun (sounds like supply chain issues), so I tried CauseBox.  It was OK, I got a substitution and found a couple things underwhelming (I'll still use them).  Anyway, I still may give FFF a shot.  
  
  The kiddo moved back here from VA.  He arrived yesterday.  We're happy he's home and he's coming with us this weekend (along with his GF).   He's living at his GF's house for the time-being (because they'll let them live together, we will not). 
  
  We had dinner with DH's aunt and uncle last night, and FIL.  It was fine, but took for-ev-er and I didn't get jack shit done that I needed to.  I also was not mentally prepared for my other draft last night (where I'm league commish...oops).  
  
  I'm glad for 4 days off.  Life has felt very in flux this month and I'm looking forward to the farm and family time.

  I'm going to take a half day tomorrow.  I don't really have the PTO time to spend, I should be banking it, but I need the time off.
  
  One of my friends who has a recent break up posted that she wanted a drunken dance party in the kitchen, only listening to Nicki, Missy, Lizzo, and Kim, while someone lets her borrow their washer and dryer to do her laundry.  I was like, Hey, Hi, hello, I can do these things for you.  So looks like I'm hosting a drunken dance party only listening to Nicki, Missy, Lizzo, and Kim, while doing laundry this weekend. 
  
  Other than that, the new Dark Crystal Netflix series drops tomorrow and I am so incredibly excited, both for the story, but also the puppetry.  I am so tired of CGI, I honestly think it's starting to ruin some of the movie magic for me.

  Can I come?? I’ve been listening to the Lizzo Tiny Desk concert on repeat today!

  That is one of the very best Tiny Desk concerts ever in Tiny Desk history.  She was on fire and dear lord, can she sing!
  
  And yes.  I think I'm going to find a boozy dessert receipe to bake b/c she wants this dance party in the kitchen.  And it's going to be hella gay, fair warning.

  Yesterday I went to tea with my mom and grandma. We tried a new place and it wasn’t very good, although the tea was okay. I’ve always wanted to try it though so now I know what I’m not missing. 
  
  Today I have an appointment and then I’m cleaning the house for the movie party we’re having on Saturday. I get my hair done tomorrow and I’m looking forward to that. We’re doing a staycation with brunch at the local nice hotel for a night with FSIL and her FI for Labor Day. I’m so excited for brunch. I’m trying to be good and work out every day until Sunday. Only three more days left.

  Casenda - We have Hamilton tixs for October!  I'm so excited!  There is some $10 ticket deal for last minute, but not sure how it works.
  
  I have my FF draft today too!  I think I'm all set!  Last year, I autodrafted since I couldn't make the draft.  I put in players that I wanted, not realizing they would be autodrafted first.  So my first round pick was a TE ::face palm::, so you can imagine how terrible my team was!  Some how I ended up in 9th place instead of 10th, but that was just me trying to scrape a decent team together each week through FA.
  
  Last night was nice.  Yoga was good even though we were kicked out of the seminar room and had to make do in the library.  I made some air fryer hash browns with Penzey's Rocky Mountain seasoning and eggs for dinner when I got home.  So amazing!  Then H made a double batch of chocolate chip cookies (some for his office, some for my draft tonight and the rest for us!) and I helped scoop them out (and eat the dough too - LOL).
  
  And today is not my Friday, but it is Prudie day!

  No motivation today but I know I need to get stuff done. Tomorrow is our last short day for summer hours. I've gotten so used to working from home on Fridays and clocking out at 2 it will be a shock next week. 
  
  I haven't paid much attention to the hurricane but my mom was just telling me grandma is worried because they are in the current path. I thought it was going up the east coast and they would be ok inland but I guess I was wrong. I just Amazon Prime'd her a box of nutty bars as a little pick me up treat. I couldn't think of anything else except snack cake type things. 
  
  0 plans for the long weekend. I asked my parents if they wanted to come up one day to see B but somehow we're having trouble agreeing on a time (they're not paying attention to his nap time I told them) so we will see what happens.

  Just getting in from a day of  back to school type stuff at work. Within two minutes of walking in I gathered that the kids were off the wall BSC.  After a summer of here and there "I wish I was the one sitting around doing nothing all day" comments from H , the small part of me that I allow to feel petty feels great right now   
  
  My parents left today and my brother, one of my sisters and BIL leave tomorrow for my cousin's DW in Jamaica.  They're in Hurricane Dorian's path so hoping for smooth travel.  I should actually do some hurricane prep here too...we're close to two bodies of water and sometimes get residual effects, even so far north.
  
  ETA not 1 not 2 but 3 misspellings wtf

  @kvruns, good luck to your grandma!  And @ei34, good luck to your family going to the DW in Jamaica!  Well wishes for FL, the Caribbean and anyone else in Dorian's path.  One of my cousin's lives in Jacksonville.  It's far enough inland I don't think they ever have to evacuate, but they have the potential for lots of rain and some flooding.
