RockNVoll I hope your DH is able to go with you! That sounds like something DH's company would do. I lost track of the different times he was supposed to go to Germany in the last 2 years and he's only gone once.
Tonight doing some errands and catching up on some of my DVR'd shows.
Tomorrow I'll be doing a long run in my neighborhood with lori19. scm1011 you are welcome to join us. I'm planning on doing 9.5 miles and L is planning on doing 6.2 miles. I'm honestly sick of the lake at this point haha.
Saturday night I'm having 3 of my college girl friends over with their boyfriends/fiances for a nice meal which should be a lot of fun.
Sunday I may get up and go to a 5 mile trail race with my sister and her boyfriend. It will all depend on how many glasses of wine I have Saturday night. If not 5 miles in the neighborhood at some point.
I think H has an event this weekend, so I'm solo with DD. Which is fine, I think we're just going to hang out and have some girl time. My MOMS group is having a working mom's breakfast with the kiddos tomorrow, it should be a good way to start the weekend off right.
I just got the most adorable and amazing package from the little boy and his family who I run for through a running group. It totally made my day.
Whatcha get? How sweet of them (and of you for running for them).
I handprint painting that he did. And a "I Smile 4 Michelle" painting with handprints and foot prints in the word "love" and picture of him smiling. And some candy, some more photos of him, a card, and one of the WillowTree Angels. I'm going to post a collage/thank you on facebook so you should be able to see it shortly.
When I have kids I'm stealing the idea of the hand/foot prints with the word love and a picture for gifts.

I have to work at our open house Saturday morning. Boo.
Then, H will be going up to Vermont with his friends for his annual men's weekend. They go to this wild game supper thing and eat bear and stuff. I plan to make some macaroni and cheese, light a fire, and watch girly movies all night with a glass of wine.
I also need to rake leaves, but I think it might rain on Sunday.
Wow, have fun in China RNV! That must be a long trip from London! ARe you flying east or west?
I have no idea what I'm doing this weekend. We're having dinner at a crappy asian buffet in Alston tonight for my MIL's birthday. She requested it and it has awful reviews online. I hope I can find something I can eat. I think (knocking on wood!!) that my morning sickness is starting to improve. I have been so miserable, I thought I would never enjoy food again. I am longing for the days when I might actually be able to go out for dinner and enjoy it again!
No plans for the rest of the weekend. We play it by ear based on how I feel. Maybe some shopping. Sad thing is we have no food. This is a bad weekend to have to go grocery shopping. I'm excited for the short holiday week coming up!

RockNVoll, you've been crazy busy since the big move!
We're prepping for Thanksgiving. Which for us is friendsgiving since none of us have family in the area. H has to work the day after Thanksgiving. Turns out there's some rule saying banks can't be closed for more than 3 days in a row. Saturday is farmers market where I'll pick up our turkey, then Saturday night I'll probably go out for some much needed drinking with my friend. Sunday swim lessons and friends over most likely.

YES! This rule sucks. I just learned this too because even though I work for a software company, we handle money for our customers and as such we are considered a bank! It blows! I hate that we are open on Friday. I'm on a 2 person team and one of us has to work. My coworker is doing next friday, which means I probably will have to work the Friday after Xmas and maybe New Years. Bummer!!!
It's so freaking cold here! I went out for lunch and had the hood up on my coat while I was in the car.
I took today off as a mental health day and am way too excited about all the cleaning and little house projects I got done. Our closets are organized. All of them! I really wanted to head down to Ikea today, but the house needed attention. I have a 4 day weekend the first week in December so I'll likely do it one of those days. Anyone know if the crowds are worse than normal early in December? Thinking of going on a Thursday.

I don't think there's ever a good day to hit up IKEA, sadly.

Have a great Friendsgiving! That sounds fun!
It's so random, isn't it? Your situation in particular sucks. H has a much bigger team to divide the suckitude up with.

DD and I are driving to MA tomorrow morning. T and I are looking at a few more houses on Sunday and then deciding on the one we want to offer on! Very excited.
We will be in town all week and looking forward to seeing friends and helping prep for Thanksgiving at my Mil's house.
