TGIFriday Randoms & Weekend Plans

[emoflamingo]

Random: My H used my car (a smaller SUV) to try and transport something. What he FAILED to do is remove my organizer from the back row and he ripped the elastic off. Fixed the washer and ruined my car organizer. He's 1-1 this week. Dryer is DEFINITELY not going to be brought up lol.

Weekend plans: We have a houseguest coming to visit and I need to go through all the boys' outgrown summer stuff and tag for the consignment sale that starts... in 4 days. Whoops! I haven't even started. I have until Monday to get it all input and then until Tuesday night to get the tags on, the clothes on hangers and everything dropped off.

I should be working on homework right now, but I'm so uninspired.

Also, I'm trying to pull the trigger on buying this beautiful dress, but I feel guilty buying it. Even after I said it's a gift for me that I deserve, I'm struggling. I need more enabling.

I had today off and spent it running some errands, catching up with a friend, and getting my hair done. Tomorrow I'm putting in 9 hours of OT. Sunday will be for more errands and getting ready for the week.

munkii that dress is beautiful and I fully support the purchase! (may I ask where it's from?)

It's from Nordstrom, and they only have 22 and 24 left. It also, supposedly, runs large. So, a trip the tailor will probably also be in order.

I was off yesterday. My favorite local quilt shop moved buildings so I went and checked out. Then I went to gap because I had a coupon and didn't find anything for me. I did get a great deal on some shirts for my friends son.
DH took off at noon and we went to town to look at washers. Nothing exciting but it was really nice.

That is a stunning dress! You will look beautiful in it and get tons of compliments! You should have it!!!

munkii, that dress is my favorite color so I say buy it.

I have input 93 items into my consignment sale tagging system (I have to have clothes all in by Monday because they don't let us do clothes for restocking), finished assembling the dresser drawers and got them in the dresser base, got the boys' room rearranged to accommodate said dresser (H and his cousin did all the hard work of moving things around for me), put all the clothes from the kitchen table in dresser as well as what was in their old dressers. I went and ran some errands while W napped and C was at a playdate and came home with a bag full of clothes from the Salvation Army for under $11 (and 4 Gymboree items in there) and started laundry.

I am going to cut the shapes for their dresser drawers with my vinyl machine, I have 2 loads of laundry to fold and then I'm going to put my feet up for awhile.

Because everyone is dying to know (I just know you are.), I bought the dress.

This weekend is a total clusterF for me.
Friday, I had to go to Ohio for my Aunt's funeral. I usually have the girls at home on Friday, so my ILs were going to watch them. So my DD2 started throwing up at 9am. My DH was on his first week of his new job, so he felt weird about taking off. His dad came and got the girls, but I still fell horrible that I let him. (He's on meds to "maintain" his prostate cancer and his immune system isn't 100%) DD1 was sick Wednesday, but recovered in an amazing 3 hrs, I was hoping DD2's sickness would be the same.
Funeral sucked in a lot of ways.

Saturday was DD1's 5th birthday party. We thought DD2 was better, but she was not. She napped through almost the whole party, but woke at the end and got a fever. I was supposed to go back to Ohio last night for a baby shower Sunday, but stayed back with DD2.

Now it's Sunday. Poor little girl woke me up at 6am saying "Eat! Eat pls!" She's feeling a little better I think. So now I have to drive to Ohio to get DD1 and go to the shower.

Added annoying things:
-Drama in my family about my sisters DDs coming to party.
-Drama with my landlord's mail. He didn't get our rent check and annoyed me all weekend trying to coordinate picking it up.
-Drama with work because our braille translator made a mistake on an important piece and that article about the Spanish company got picked up by the NYT with no mention of us. But it does mention this one artist we work with (and I did her website.) Annoying.
- my stupid car warning light came on and it was making me nervous. I took it in and it was just the service light for my spark plugs. I told them to change them. They tried to charge me $460. It's insane. I still have to work that out with them. Grrrrrr.
