I want one more day of weekend! BUT only 3 more weeks, I think, until I get a week off!!
My weekend was good. Yesterday I went on a nice long hike with my friend and we even did a little climbing on rocks in and near water. It was a hike to a small waterfall but it's hard to see without climbing on the rocks. I think next time I want to approach from the other side so that we can see it more easily.
I think I am living a weird place. I don't know what day it is. Where I am when I wake up. I did have a great weekend though. My new house is really coming together nicely. I'll post some pictures soon. The main level looks so pretty once it has been painted. My H called me down yesterday just to tell me how awesome of a job I did selecting colors. It made my night.
My weekend was really good. We had an impromptu Just Dance party on Saturday night, with friends and their kids. Sunday was a good date, with a new guy, and a single mom's dinner. Yesterday we went to Ripley's and then to a freak show, where we were the only ones there. It was a lot of fun!
What I hate about 3 day weekends where we're closed on Monday's - Monday is my WFH day. I LOVE starting off the week that way. But when I have off on Monday and my first day of the week really is IN the office... it plays w/ me mentally!
And having to get up, dressed, etc, after a really exhausting weekend is HARD, 'yo.

I am exhausted. DS was up between 5 and 6 am every day this weekend. My body was not used to that. He's become sneaky too. I don't even know he is up until he comes in my room to wake me up and tell me he is up. My annual camp trip is this weekend and it cannot get here fast enough. Camping by a lake with friends, then off to RenFaire all on my birthday weekend sounds amazing.
I have a phone interview this afternoon with an engineering firm. Cross fingers. STILL haven't heard from the internal position. There are possible reasons why, but it's bordering on unprofessional after a certain amount of time has passed after having two interviews.
Relaxing in the living room off the deck after moving on Thursday. I'm still waiting on my outdoor furniture. So Camp chairs it is! My brother was so excited when he learned I had movers. He came to help and then learned he was only moving really fragile stuff. He's the one under the star.
Sunday we painted the kitchen, living room(shown) and dining room. I can't wait to put the shelves in that niche.
You can kind of see the grey ceiling and darker grey walls with white molding in this pic. I absolutely love it.
Thank you. I've always wanted to live with Greys so most of the house is a range of greys. I'll add color with pillows and accessories. I think I'm going to use a purple in the living room the same color as the plant that is on the mantel.

It's so hard to find the right grey, almost as hard as finding the right blue. You did a great job, I can't wait to see pictures when it's all done!

I might hate the new motion sensor lights in this office. I've been at my desk for a while and the lights just went off. I had to flail my arms to turn the lights on. The lighting is so much better, but man this will bother me on Friday when I'm all alone in the office.

Also, another cool thing: I called the old VP of the state (my boss's former boss) as he previously agreed to be a reference for me. Not only did he tell me that he would give me an outstanding reference, he offered me a job in NYC if I wanted to relocate!

I hate those. I feel like i'm pretending to be grover or kermit just to get the lights on.

I liked this because it's true and also made me laugh, not because having to do this is a good thing.

Weekend was good. Sunday we took PF and Pastrami to a farm to meet the baby animals. And yesterday we headed upstate near Woodstock for an arts festival.
We're nailing dates down for the move and I'm anxious but also excited. I keep looking at our apartment and think how tiny it is and how great it'll be to have room and privacy and a yard!
