I know, I woke up this morning and all I could think was WHY. OH WHY !!!!!! At least the sun will be out longer tonight and am looking forward to walking the dogs when it is still light out!
My weekend was so fab. I caught up on Downton Abbey most evenings and H and I started the Walking Dead. Saturday, I met a few friends for coffee and crepes and then H and I went to a few different flea markets to look around for some hidden gems. We grabbed another coffee and lunch and walked the dogs.
Yesterday was a lot of laziness! Coffee, I did some painting yesterday for the first time in ever. H asked me to paint something for above our fire place. It was really nice to be asked that. I did two long skinny paintings and thought a third one in the middle would look nice - I just have to finish that up tonight. H got the garden started and we went on a 4 mile walk with the dogs too.
Weekend was good for the most part. Looked at another house, waiting on the application to be e-mailed to me. Went to an open mic thing at the local zombie mall and had a good time.

Friday night I went home and did laundry and then went to sleep early
Saturday: woke up early, went to Bar class, then wandered aimlessly and then had a massage. Went home and attempted to take a nap but ended up feeling more sluggish than before my nap. Watched like 4 episodes of Girls
Sunday: Slept in, finished watching Girls (didn't watch last night), made a grocery list and packed all my bags (gym, work, nutrisystem) for the week and then watched RHOA and other Bravo shows and went to bed.
Doesn't sound too fun but it was just what I needed.
Friday - came home from work and lounged. I went to bed really early since I was so tired.
Saturday - Cleaned the apartment from top to bottom, went for a long walk, talked to friend on phone, made dinner, caught up on Grey's, ran to CVS for a few things.
Sunday - Tried out a new church, came home and ate lunch, went to Centennial Park to walk and people watch (I loved it). Ran by Marshall's to get some calf-length yoga pants to exercise in. Went to World Market and got some garam marsala and a new mug. I also got cut by a broken mug at WM and bled everywhere! I took a long nap when I got home, ate a late dinner, painted my nails, and took a shower.
Friday I went home and slept. Saturday morning I had breakfast with H and my Dad, then went to a first birthday party. Then went home to sleep. Sunday I did laundry and vegged. I am still fighting a cold so I took advantage of the opportunity to rest
On Saturday, I drove home to visit my folks. We had lunch, went shopping and attended a family member's 70th birthday party. It was a lot of fun!
Sunday, I had brunch with my folks, and my dad decided to wash my car for me before I headed back. (He is adorable about cars, and he's really excited about my new one). Got home and relaxed on the couch watching Lifetime movies. Had Chinese for dinner.

We had an overnight date night at the casino on Friday and it was exactly what we needed.
Saturday I woke up after only 4 hours of sleep to get ready for a bridal shower an hour away for one of FF’s cousins. Thankfully I wasn’t too terribly hungover (surprisingly!) and the shower was really nice. Saturday evening I went with my parents to have dinner with my aunt and uncle who were in town from Colorado. J was the best baby ever at dinner. Just smiley and happy and completely content. Score!
Sunday we had a relaxing day at home until we left to pick up B. We went to dinner afterwards and again, I had the world’s best behaved children. It was actually enjoyable and not stressful!
It was rough getting the boys to bed last night because of DST, but we all survived. I still feel like I’m trying to catch up on sleep from the weekend though!
Friday I had a great time eating pizza and playing bar trivia with chef guy. Saturday I slept in, did some laundry, played a game, and a good friend was stopping through town so we had dinner and drove around potential neighborhoods. She's thinking about moving to the area and I'm excited about that Sunday I went to IKEA with my mom, bought a few apartment things, watched A Few Good Men, lounged around. Good weekend.
And I got about four hours of sleep. It could be dst, but mostly I was just awake. Couldn't fall asleep for the life of me. Soooo tired.
We haven't had power since 2am Friday, so my weekend was spent going from place to place to sleep, shower, etc! I can't even work today because I work from home and can't use my computer! The kids and I spent the night with my parents last night and I am hanging out at BF's house today until they get out of school. Public schools here are closed due to the power outages, but DS1 goes to a charter and DS2 goes to a private preschool.

Friday, FI and I danced for a while, then we went out to dinner. We liked the restaurant, and it's cheap and close to our venue, so we're officially having our rehearsal dinner at a Mexican restaurant. Olé!
Saturday, we went to buy the last two cases of wine for the wedding. The vineyard was in an area we had never been to before, and there were 3 other wineries within 5 miles of it, so we went tasting there, too...just because. We now have all the booze for the wedding--4 cases of hard cider, 9 cases of beer, and 8 cases of wine. For 45 people.
Sunday, we had brunch with the neighbors, danced for a bit, had our dance lesson, then I taught pole, and we had a movie night at a friend's house. Stayed up way too late watching GoT.

We had my son's birthday party Saturday. I tend to be a bit introverted and kind of rigid in how things go (I have an internal timeline and I don't like to deviate from it). My youngest sister and her husband showed up two hours late and then stayed really late and I just wanted people out of my space. Otherwise, that party was fun but I was maxed out on other people!
"This prick is asking for someone here to bring him to task Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him I'll pull the trigger on it, someone load the gun and cock it While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket."
Friday had a really great first date we'll call him the teacher. We grabbed drinks after work and both were so jaded by online dating that we had made plans with friends later that night. We were both bummed we had to cut it short. Later that night I hung out with my bestie.
Saturday I lounged around and decluttered the house all day. Then I had another first date with with we'll call him the architect. I didn't really want to go because I feeling lazy but we also hit it off and had a great time.
Sundy more lounging while the cleaners spiffed up my house. It looks AWESOME. And then architect asked me out for a burger. It was delicious! Then we made out some. Yay!
I'm really tired at work today but I regret nothing!

Friday I had dinner and drinks with 2 girlfriends, Saturday I went to boot camp in the AM then had my nails done. Later on we went to a basketball playoff game, T's high school was playing the rivals that HIS team lost to in the playoffs 20 years ago...and they lost AGAIN. It was in the UMass gym where he also played college basketball so it was cool to see the site of his "glory days" stories haha. And I met his college coach who gave me a big hug.
Yesterday I worked out in the morning then ran some errands, went by T's cousins to see his little cousin who is home on leave from the Navy, before she ships out to Hawaii for the next few years! Later on we went out for Chinese with T's sister and her family for his nephew's bday. Last night relaxed and watched Walking Dead.
Count me among those having trouble sleeping last night. The long nap I took around 4pm probably didn't help.

Saturday was mostly lazy. Sat around and watched tv with the cats. In the evening I went and saw the Lego movie with coworker, followed by amazing sex. Sunday morning I went to tattoo convention and had a few hours of work done on my half sleeve. Made some new friends who run a shop in Atlanta! It was really fun.
Friday I had dinner and drinks with two girlfriends. It was so nice to catch up!
Saturday I slept in and then ran a bunch of errands. Saturday night I stayed in with a bottle of wine and caught up on my DVR.
Sunday I power cleaned. Its so nice to have a clean place! Last night I took the guy I'm dating to dinner for his birthday. I had hoped for some make out time after dinner but we were both totally wiped out so that didn't happen...

Saturday, DS and I lounged at the coffee shop all morning because he made a toddler friend. We looked at an apartment that I will hopefully hear about today - it was very much inspired by seeing mp's new place and thinking, "now THAT is what a good single girl flat looks like."
Sunday was spent at my mother's, suffering through her well-intentioned commentary on my life choices.
