Canadian Thanksgiving weekend randoms

[awick14]

What's going on this weekend?

DH went out last night for a night away hunting with my dad. (Because he missed the big trip) DH text me this morning already and he got a deer. He is very happy.

When he gets home this afternoon we are going to the ILs for dinner.

[katespade]

Well that was quick! How awesome for your H!
We're hoping to go out hunting tomorrow morning, since I need to spend today getting homework done.

Working all weekend, E is home with DH.

I had a short little shift this morning at 5. I walked 3 miles home. Now just relaxing. I need to do some dishes today and maybe go to the gym later. I am also going to take a bath with oils and Epsom salts then give myself a pedicure I feel this will cure my annoyance with a coworker I had to deal with today!

[awick14]

travelbug- I'm thinking a bath and a pedicure are a great idea right now. Maybe I'll do that before DH comes home.

I was having a bad day yesterday so after I got G to bed early I got in a bubble bath with Epsom salt while DH picked up dinner for us.

I've been in a funk but feeling a bit better.

[HoneySpider]

Football, more football, and baseball!

[awick14]

I'm glad your feeling better bk1.

[luv2rn4fun]

Glad you're feeling better bk1!

Enjoy your relaxing bath travelbug!

awick14- Glad your DH is having a great time hunting and that he got a deer!

We went out for a quick lunch at a local coffee shop we've been wanting to go to. Picked up a movie and ice cream (to go with our apple pie) for later tonight once C is in bed. Also, we have someone coming to looking at our house tomorrow...really hope our showing goes well- it's been really slow and no offers. So I guess we'll be spending some time tomorrow getting the place 100% perfect!

Just got home from the football game! I underestimated how warm it would be and ended up getting sunburned. Oh well, it was a great game!

[MrsMB]

Getting some gifts for people at target and saw this. I've been laughing since I left!

[awick14]

MrsMB, lol

I did some damage to our bank account today lol. We had a nice lunch with my bff then I went to Old Navy. Which by the way I fit in a size 14 jeans! I haven't worn a 14 since our wedding. Then we hit bed bath and beyond then Christmas tree Shoppe.

The rest of the night we are relaxing I have a Guinness Sheppard's pie innthe oven for dinner and the house smells delicious right now.

A groundhog moved in under my neighbor's deck, and now it likes to hang out in my yard. My dog goes crazy every time she sees it. It's a very big groundhog, like the size of a fat cat!

[amaranth]

Dumb question, but what do Epsom salts in a bath do? I have some that I've never used. How much do you poor in?

[awick14]

amaranth- it makes your skin soft. I haven't done it in so long I can't remember how long to do it for.

@moonbeam- make sure your pup doesn't get to close, groundhogs can be mean if they feel threatened.

[ewall]

Way to go, @emtmissy!

I never got my margarita, but I'm fully loaded on wine. Oops.

[bk1]

amaranth My chiropractor suggests using them. It helps sore muscles. I take an epsom salt bath every time my back starts hurting.

We're at my parents house. We went to an event in my home town and got E a pumpkin! We actually ran into my elementary school best friend there! We've kept up through FB and I've been meaning to stop by (she lives in my parents neighborhood). It was awesome to see her again! Then we walked around a garden at a community college around here, stopped over at my grandparents, then went shopping for a costume for E. It's been a long day! And my stupid cheap pedometer I'm using until I find/fix my Fitbit says I only did just over 3k steps. My sister's Fitbit says she did 6k and she hasn't done anything more than us! Grr.

[awick14]

Way to go @emtmissy! It's always a great feeling when you fit into a smaller size.

estrellita- if you walked the same distance as SIL I would totally use the steps she got instead of yours. Lol

[estrellita]

awick14 for some reason the pedometer on my phone got turned on and that even says over 6k. And I don't always have my phone on me. Pretty sure this pedometer sucks!

[awick14]

Use the 6k number then for sure, and hopefully you can get your fitbit fixed soon.

We were supposed to have a showing between 11-1 today. No show, called our realtor and she got a text from the agent saying they decided to buy new but she thought it was after they had seen our house. So we basically wasted this weekend between cleaning yesterday and sitting around for 2 hrs today. C is napping now and once he's awake I think I will take him grocery shopping while DH does his laundry.

In other news (semi related)...apparently our neighbors think they should be all open about their mechanic shop business (for the new potential buyers) because ever since we put the sign in our yard he has been doing non-stop work on other people's cars. It's so annoying! But, I have managed to get some pictures and have an email ready to give to code enforcement tomorrow. I hope they are able to do something...all the neighbors are pretty fed up with him.

[estrellita]

luv2rn4fun Ugh, I hope they do something about your neighbor! That's ridiculous. I'm thankful every day we didn't buy the house with the crazy neighbors, lol. So far ours seem good. I hope your future neighbors will be way better!

We went to the zoo today! It was so hot for an October day in MN!

[MrsMB]

luv2rn4fun your neighbor is impossible......

Sorry about the no show. I hated no shows with the house

I've done so much organizing today while DH has a seminar. I feel great. He needs to unwind a little so I will tackle the last room on my list.

H and I woke up super early to go hunting and ended up having a really great morning. We came back empty handed, but the weather was gorgeous, we got to watch the sunrise, and we spent a few hours walking through the woods. It was just really nice quality time together.
