Tonight, DH is working late for an event so I'll probably just be working and hanging out. Nothing exciting at all.
Tomorrow we're going to the Smithsonian to check out the Innovation Festival. It's supposed to rain but I really hope not because we'd like to walk there & back. But if it does there is a bus we can take. I just prefer to walk! We're also planning on going out for dinner.
Sunday DH has to work an event so it will probably be a work/laundry/random stuff kind of day for me. We are going to make a run to Trader Joe's in the morning.
I have my first baby shower tomorrow and I'm so excited!
Vent: I did get a little irritated with H because he is never firm with his parents. After last time we stayed at my ILs, he promised me he would never make me stay there again. It's small and super cluttered, the dog pees and poops on puppy pads throughout the house (like in the middle of walkways where you have to watch and step over it), the room we stayed in smelled like dog urine, and the front door has an iron gate-type door on the outside that locks by key. The only way to get OUT of the house is with a key which I obviously don't have. I had several panic attacks when we stayed there a couple years ago.
So I gently discussed getting a hotel for Saturday night so we could get a king sized bed because we have the two dogs plus my giant preggo pillow. We won't all fit on a full bed. He was completely agreeable and said he would talk to his parents. Well that night he said he talked to his dad who said it was a queen so H was like oh okay!! ..........Wtf H??? We came to an agreement and yet again couldn't stick to a decision with his parents. When we went to Dallas we had TWO queen beds for all of the aforementioned. Now when he tells them we're getting a hotel they'll know its because of me. Thanks a lot H.
Tonight we are hanging w my parents. Tomorrow we are going to my inlaws. H will be going to a football game w fil and I will be hanging w mil and SIL. Sunday: football, lol!
Today I worked 9 hours already and now just relaxing. I am so sore from work so I hope i'll be able to move in a little bit to do some more dishes. H and I are going to do something tonight, not sure what other then get frozen yogurt. They gave me a coupon so even better. Saturday: Just working, Sunday: Work and then we are taking my MIL and FIL out to dinner to have a discussion about my SIL... Looking forward to the food and nervous about the actual talking portion. That's it for us this weekend! Low Key!
Ugh MrsAggie that sounds like my IL's place. I won't ever stay there again either. I just can't get comfortable to sleep. I hope it doesn't turn into a huge ordeal for you. I agree though make your H be the one to have it be his suggestion so it's not on you to get the hotel room. That might soften the discussion. Good luck!
MrsAggie I also agree with awick14. I would be upset too!
Tonight I am helping my mom hand out candy. I plan on enjoying the pumpkin hard cider I bought a few weeks ago. My mom is making me dinner and I bought a assorted cheesecake from a school fundraiser so I am bring 2 pieces of that to enjoy. I am also borrowing her washer and dryer and washing our bedding. I planned on doing on Monday but figured, what the heck.
Saturday is a busy day. Since my BIL changed his schedule he is picking my niece up from the airport since she missed her flight last week. Yay! In the morning DH and I have a training class. I'm not looking forward to pushing myself out of a window headfirst, in the rain. If I want to keep my interior firefighter status I have to do it. That afternoon we have our other niece's first birthday/SIL birthday/Halloween party. SIL invited my mom to come so she is excited.
Sunday we have another training class for helicopter landing zones in the morning. In the afternoon we are driving out to see my oldest niece. We haven't seen her in 2 years so we are excited.
We went OOT to a concert yesterday. We decided to stay at a nice hotel rather than drive back home last night, and when we checked in they gave us a complimentary upgrade to a suite. It was such a nice room! We went to the concert (which was awesome), then wandered around the city for most of the day before driving back home. Our dog was not pleased that we left him with someone else overnight, so he's been pouting around the house glaring at us all evening.
H is currently making spaetzle for dinner.
No certain plans for tomorrow. We're thinking about a marathon of movies we're embarrassed that we love. If we bother to leave the house, we might go pick up some paint samples for the bedroom.
I've been a bit MIA this week since I'm at my parents. This weekend was a scrap booking retreat and I was pretty productive. Which is great since I am SO behind.
