We made it? Hoping everyone has something fun and/or restful planned!
Re: Fri-yay
Sunday is looking quiet and hoping it stays that way.
Soccer is now OVER for Chiquito and Chiquita has one more practice. Chiquito's team lost last night but it was a solid effort against an undefeated team.
Weekend is HOPEFULLY a haircut for Chiquita tomorrow followed by GS Sunday while I cantor. Another mom is helping with the drive so I can do the church thing. It's going to be a busy day and we still need to figure out what we're doing for her birthday which is a month from today when she turns the big 13.
We did get tickets to see the Radio City Christmas Show Spectacular next month which I'm really excited about. I need to make meal reservations somewhere close as the next order of business. Thinking either Carmine's or Tony's DiNapoli as close walks offering the food my picky eater will consume.
Learning to cook turkey outside seems like fun. Though I am not really a turkey fan .... can these skills be applied to chicken as well?
I have DnD tomorrow, I sing in church on Sunday, and there are rumours about MIL needing my help to move a chair ... other than that, taking it easy before the inevitable shitshow that is work next week. Big project launching that our client did not prepare for. And someone was handling my job for me while I was away with my cousin, and the stress of it caused her to immediately quit, lol. Meanwhile, none of my superiors are checking in on me all "wow, didn't realize you did so much". Okay .... that's smart. But at the same time, I've been doing this role for 4 years, and there are times in which it does get to be too much but I also am aware there are times when I do enjoy it immensely. So I have that hindsight. Regardless, the writing is on the wall and I'm going to start looking for other positions elsewhere I think.
Tomorrow, IL's are babysitting all day and H and I are going to watch our alma mater play football at Wrigley Field (where the Chicago Cubs play). The game will be terrible bc both teams suck, but it will be a super fun experience! And we're planning to meet up with a bunch of friends before and then go out to dinner after, i'm really excited!
I'm sure i'll take the boys out for a few hours on Sunday, H has hi final exam on Monday night and will want some time to prep.
DS2's Boy Scout troop always does a Trash Can Turkey camping weekend in November. It was his and H's favorite camping trip. Some of the graduated scouts would often come back.
I have altar guild this weekend so will be setting up tomorrow and cleaning up on Sunday. Other than that not much going on. It is suppose to be a little warmer this weekend than it has been the last couple of days.
@banana468 we’re twins! The turkey will be cooked in a (new) metal trash can. And we’re going to Radio City next month too! My parents had been talking about bringing the older grandkids for a while, so middle sis and I purchased tickets for them, the kids and the two of us back in June, as a 40th anniversary gift. We’re going to a 9am show (I will only see the tree before 8am on a weekend!) and I’ve made lunch reservations at Carmines and Serendipity 3. I think the latter would be more fun bc we have Italian all the time, but Carmine’s is a lot closer. Everyone’s #1 pick is actually John’s pizza but they don’t take reservations. We’ll probably pop into John’s to see what the wait is like, and if it’s bad we’ll go to Carmines since they’re near each other.
edit- it’s posting weird and everyone’s tagged names are doubled, hope I corrected it
