Weekend wrapup

[HoneySpider]

How is the weekend almost over already?

I had some bananas that needed to be used so I made banana bread, it just came out of the oven and smells so good! I haven't made a banana bread in forever.

[MrsMB]

Went to the fair with my Dad yesterday morning. We had a blast! It's a huge fair!! Lat night, we had our anniversary dinner. That was really nice. Today, I am sick....probably sinus infection. I'm seriously getting a full physical soon just to make sure I'm ok after being so sick this year.

I wanted something chocolate last night so I made a double batch of chocolate chip pancakes and put half in the freezer. G approved.

I've been cleaning and sorting through stuff most of the day. I'm feeling the push to get things knocked off our to do list.

Mmm... Banana bread.

MrsMB I like everything but the sick part! Feel better!

I ran/walked a 5k this morning. The girl who was going to do it with me backed out so I did it by myself with no training. We've been at our town's fair all weekend. Currently I'm making dinner for the crew there. Taco Sunday! Later I'm working the fireworks with DH.

I have to work tomorrow I haven't worked a full Monday in years! At least I get a 5 day weekend next weekend out of it. H has to do laundry all by himself tomorrow. Let's see how he does. I already separated it for him so it shouldn't be too hard, right.

I'm home. Just woke up from a nap a bit ago. H and I have been civil but haven't done much talking. He showed me his shredded credit cards and told me he put in an application at the grocery store in town. He should hopefully get some info about counseling this week. He found some that work with the EAP so that's good. He also found at least one that is open weekends. I hope we can get in ASAP. I just want to lay here and sleep but I should really do some laundry and maybe do something productive.

estrellita ((hugs)) do whatcha gotta do even if that is nothing!

H and I started watching stranger things. It is creepy but good. H got tired so we had to take a break while he rests. I am watching RENT.

Tonight is the final episode of the night of....I am excited and nervous.

Other than an obscene amount of watching tv I am doing laundry so that I dont drown in it....literally.

[amaranth]

Coming home from my parents earlier than expected which is awesome. I'll actually be able to get some stuff done going into this super busy week. I can't believe how busy we accidentally got. My H and I each have like three evening commitments per week.


estrellita I know you're still upset but his actions seem to show true remorse and intention to improve. I have hope for you guys <3 good luck!

@emtmissy if he can't do some pre sorted laundry then.... It makes me think of that video going around where the husband's are in awe of the magic table that just cleans up and does their laundry. Have you seen it? I can find the link of you haven't. It's very funny.

HoneySpider baking bread, grading papers? I thought you just had a baby!!! You're rocking it

[Deleted]

We're going to take a walk soon. I hope the dog cooperates and doesn't pull and bark much. For dinner we had breaded chicken drumettes and sauteed green beans with garlic. I'm stuffed!

[awick14]

I'm glad he is showing you he has started to take the steps he needs to get things rolling. estrellita.

Yummy banana bread HoneySpider! And I agree with amaranth, you've done a lot lately, I only hope I have enough energy to do stuff when I am pp like that.

MrsMB- I'm sorry your feeling sick again.

Work today is going slow, which is nice and relaxing but I'm already anxious to get home. I only work one more day then I drive home Tuesday.

[HoneySpider]

amaranth awick14 Thanks ladies...the first week was SO HARD for me physically and emotionally so it's been really nice these last 4-5 days to start getting back to normal (or at least figuring out a new normal) It makes me feel better to be somewhat productive. I'm still catching up on a lot of stuff!

[ewall]

I ate two pieces of pie today. Key lime. Getting back on the healthy bandwagon tomorrow.

DH and I both woke up not wanting to do anything. I did a puzzle and we laid around the house all day with the exception of swim class. Thankfully we had enough food that we didn't have to grocery shop today.

[estrellita]

I want to start working out again. I think it would really help with my anxiety/depression, plus I want to look good in my bridesmaid's dress And for once, I want to do something for myself. I'm just scared and don't know where to start. I used to work out with a trainer at my work's gym but that trainer is gone. My coworkers that work out with the trainers there now always say they are so hard on them. I get it and it's not a bad thing, but I want my old trainer! She was the perfect combo of pushing me but also understanding when it was too much for me. I'm horrible at doing things myself. I thought about starting to jog/run because I like the idea of it but I'm not sure if it's realistic. I get horrible heat headaches and I have a bad knee, so I'm not sure how well it would go. I've also tried getting up in the morning to work out but that doesn't work and we don't really have a good space to use in the evening for a home workout. Any tips?

[pooh8402]

estrellita, I agree with the others that his actions show remorse. Hang in there!

HoneySpider, yum!

MrsMB, glad yall had fun! Hope you don't get too sick!

Ok that's all I can remember. :/



My mom, sisters and I got matching tattoos! E came with me, and he was great today! I surprised DH and he was not happy about being surprised, oops.

[tacocat]

estrellita, I'm glad he seems to be taking some responsibility. Hopefully y'all get in to see someone soon!

pooh8402, those look great! My little sister would love it if we did something like that, but she's the only one brave enough to do it.

The weekend went by really fast. We slept in yesterday, which was really nice. Got some house stuff done this weekend that we needed to get done.

[luv2rn4fun]

Feel better MrsMB!

HoneySpider- you are a rockstar! You just had a baby and a c/s...it took me awhile to be productive past main necessities.

estrellita- looks like your DH is taking the necessary steps. Praying you guys can work through this. As for working out, you can definitely start with run/walking...anything is better than nothing. Just start out easy and shorter distances and slowly work your way to a goal! Good luck! I always feel better when I am running.

We had a great weekend! Zoo on Friday, went to the lake yesterday morning, church today, and spent the rest of the time working on the house and getting chores done.

[bk1]

I'm so impressed with everything you are doing HoneySpider! I didn't bake anything for weeks afterwards and we lived off of take out. You are doing awesome!

estrellita Big hugs. It sounds like he is really working in the right direction. I hope you can find a therapist that can get you in soon.

pooh8402 They turned out great! 

Feel better MrsMB! You need a break!

[MrsMB]

HoneySpider you are doing amazing PP! I wasn't NEAR where you are at!
