Highs:All in all, it was an awesome weekend. Saturday we went to Sesame Street Live (which I know sounds hellish, but it was cute). We had our good friends over for dinner on Saturday night. Yesterday, I ran, did yard work, and then we went to the lake with our semi-ex-bffs. They are the ones we have drifted apart from since we both had kids. The good news is that it was the most normal it has been in a long time, and it was SO nice to see a glimmer of the friendship we used to have. We are going away with them this weekend so I am hoping things continue on the positive trend.
Lows: Our washing machine is leaking.
Best thing you ate: I made pulled pork in the crock pot, and I am already excited for leftovers tonight.

Highs: Rockets win and advance! Haven't gotten this far since 1997, so the whole city is on a high about it. Went to a reunion party on Friday that was nice, and went out for sushi on Saturday.
Lows: attended the final memorial service for the friend that passed last month.
Best thing to eat: Hot Rock Kobe Beef appetizer at the sushi dinner.

Highs: Got to see a nephew (and his parents) that we haven't seen in six months. I was pleased to discover that his parents aren't nearly as over-protective as we thought they'd be. Browsed around a home store and surprisingly found a few things that I've been looking for for over a year.
Lows: Had to put up with BIL's pretentiousness. I love the guy, but he thinks a little too highly of himself...to the point of putting other people down.
Best thing I ate: Pizza from a 100% homemade pizza joint.
Highs: Had so much fun at Preakness! We went with our college friends and some of their friends from DC and NYC, and I wish they lived closer so we can hang out more! And we managed to stay dry during the torrential downpour.
Lows: I'm not ready for hot, muggy weather. Bleh! Yardwork on Sunday morning was pretty miserable.
Food: G and I used our pasta maker attachment for the Kitchenaid mixer for the first time-- it turned out great! We made linguine with pesto. Can't wait for leftovers tonight.

Highs: got to relax, did a ton of shopping and got amazing deals and we saw Pitch Perfect 2! Love, was very funny.
Lows: still sick and wheezy but breathing is getting easier and my voice is mostly back.
Best thing I ate: probably sushi on Saturday night. I had several amazing rolls, some salmon sashimi and nigiri and finished with green tea cheesecake.

Highs - all of it. Went to see BFF Friday night and we hung ut by a fire with a few other friends. Saturday/Sunday we FINISHED THE BASEMENT! Mostly Saturday night we went out to dinner downtown and Saturday we grilled out and drank beers on the deck.
Lows - Not much, actually.
Food - Smokey Beer can chicken on the grill with grilled asparagus.
Highs: It's over, lol! I woke up early and worked quite a bit this weekend. We had our bff couple over on Saturday night for a bbq and it was pretty fun, except at the end she kept saying how full and tired she was. It was annoying and rude after the 15th time. ^o). I also ran a 5k Sunday and it was great!
Lows: Getting up at 7am both days.
Food: I made angle food cake and used that in a berry trifle. It was beyond delicious.
Highs: Got a lot done around the house and I'm most of the way packed (so I don't have to rush and do it tonight). I'm going to Hilton Head for some golfing with my dad Tues - Sun.
Lows: This stupid cough is still lingering, and seems to mostly act up during meetings and when I'm trying to sleep.
Best thing you ate: A yummy omelette at our favorite breakfast spot Saturday morning.
Highs: Fun night out on Friday with my friend who moved to NJ (and then had a baby, ugh! lol), sleeping in Saturday
Lows: finding out my real boss is in the hospital with blood clots in his lungs and leg. He said he will be fine, but I find this very worrisome. And to top it off, rich boss was supposed to come in to the office today, but he hasn't shown up. Maybe tomorrow.
Best thing I ate: semi-hungover trip to Five Guys for takeout when I finally got out of bed Saturday, lol
