Saturday - two friends got engaged. It was during the renfaire parade. She said yes. He had a bunch of us help him pull it off.
Sunday - XH dropped A off 3 hours early so we went up to the renfaire again. Nothing too major... until I got home later. Saw a friend got engaged. Great? Not so great. He and I went out on a couple dates about a month or so ago. He never asked me out again after our 2nd date, which I wasn't too broken up over. We stayed friends though. So now I'm wondering if he wasn't actually single when we went out. That doesn't give me a too great feeling.
I worked Friday night, went to the MD wine festival Saturday.
Yesterday, a guy friend from high school came over to watch the Ravens game. It was nice. I'm a little swoony over it. We've got plans for next week. Yay!
Friday - last minute happy hour with a girl from work. We ended up going to a place very near T's house, so afterwards I went over there and hung out.
Saturday - T coaches his son's football team, so I went home when he left to go do that. Did some stuff around the house, then met back up with T and we went couch shopping for me. We went to dinner and hung out. I met one of his friends.
Sunday - had an appt to get the Keratin Brazilian straightener done on my hair. Love it!! Hung out with a childhood friend that moved here the same time I did. Our parents were best friends in high school and Tracy and I went to the same babysitter and were friends as children. She went to a different high school and we lost touch. She moved to ATX the same day I did, so we've been hanging out occasionally. We'd made plans to hang out earlier in the week, then it started raining and I just wanted to stay home. But I went ahead and went over. On my way back I was talking to my mom - I said I was glad I ended up going. There's just something about being around people from "home" and that get you every once in awhile. I loved all the time I got to spend with T this weekend, but there was just something about being at Tracy's.
It was okay....Friday/Saturday I spent most of them in bed watching movies. I had lost the motivation to do much of anything.
Sunday - church and my BFF and her DD drove 1 1/2 hours to do some shopping (that she totally could have done where she lives). We had a lovely time shopping, chatting and planning another friend's bachelorette party.

MCC- congrats on your race!
Friday night I met some friends for some dinner/drinks.
Saturday I went to the farmer's market and then over to a friend's house for a BBQ. Hijinks ensued when a 5 year old accidently ate the pineapple soaked in rum.
Sunday I went to the farmer's market again and then took Nora to the dog park. Met my mom for lunch. Had big plans to make dinner and have a friend over. I ended up getting a migraine which rendered me useless for several hours.
Friday night I partied for my friend's birthday. It was nice to get out and I was happy my boyfriend could join. He is CAO this week so his schedule is unpredictable.
Saturday I cheered my boyfriend on during his 5k and then I went home to hang with my puppy and be lazy. Caught up on America's next top model. I also cleaned up and stuff. I saw a movie with my boyfriend at night.
Sunday I was sooo happy to talk and catch up with my two bestest friends ever. We talked for hours! It made me so happy. I love my friends but they are far away and we have such different schedules so it was good to hear from them. I did laundry and homework and went food shopping and shopping for my friend's birthday.
Sunday night my boyfriend surprised me and stopped by for a few minutes in between his CAO duties. He was in uniform and looking mighty fine. I was so happy to see him and it left me swooning the rest of the night.
Friday and Saturday were super shitty. I'd rather forget those days. But Sunday was . . .
GREAT!!!
Myself, my bff and mom went to dinner in at Maggiano's and then went barhopping. It was so awesome cause we never do anything like that, well we go out to eat but never bar-hop. We decided to do it once a month from now on cause life's too short to sit at home. It was seriously one of the most fun nights I have had in a long long time. My bff and I also planned our 2nd annual gatlinburg trip for the last week in October. So excited we had a fantastic time last year.

Friday night - high school football game. And we won (again!) - this is a huge deal for my town because our previous record was 0-24.
Saturday - took DD to the state fair!! Had a wedding reception in the evening - DD had a blast dancing.
Sunday - was lazy most of the day. We went and rode the combine with my uncle in the afternoon for a little bit, then went grocery shopping and to my parents' house for supper.

Friday night - went out with a girlfriend for a few drinks. Ended up meeting up with M afterwards for a few hours.
Saturday - Got my nails and toes did in the morning. Met a different girlfriend for coffee. Then spent the rest of the day with M.
Sunday - Went with M to his friends house to watch football (apparently this is a big step for him, to have the girl he is with to be around him and his friends as they do boy things and yell at the TV for hours). Then M joined me for Rosh Hashana dinner at my parents house. It was the first time he met my family, and it went really really well. Everyone seemed to like him, and he said he liked them too.

It was good! WE didn't get as much done arounf the house as we'd hoped, but i'm ok with that.
Friday night, the cable guy came, and I watched Lifetime movies and drank beer and was delighted about it.
Saturday afternoon, we hit a friend's party, which was lovely. Apparently, shortly after we left, the hostess' sister's friend started projectile vomiting all over. It wasn't that kind of party, and he showed up wasted, but still. I'm glad we left when we did.
Sunday was Thor's aunt's 60th birthday party. Then we got take out for dinner and watched dumb movies.
Friday I went out to bars for dancing with my friend. So much fun.
Saturday I got a bunch of crap done and then went out with A Saturday night. Got a little too drunk but had a great time. Also had some mind blowing sex lol. I am very very into this guy.
Sunday hung around with A for a few hours and then went climbing with a friend. Then watched football and went out to dinner with my parents.

eh ok...Fri night I went with J to his cousin's hs football game. It was fun and I met some more of his family. All were really nice and friendly. Sat-DD, my mom and I went to the Apple and Wine Festival. came home and just vegged out. Sun-cleaning and attempted some shopping but couldnt find anything I wanted or that I was willing to spend my money on. Contemplating breaking up with J....I love him and could seriously see us together long term but the distance thing is starting to get to me and lately Im feeling like hes a lil distant but that could all just be me being paranoid and having my guard up. So we'll see....

Mine was good. Friday night, I hung out and watched Breaking Bad and picked up J from work. We had some discussions about moving in together again, and I think I'm going to do it in October. Eee. Today is our 6 month a versary.
Saturday I worked my DSW job, came home, went to make a return with J, and we had a movie/date night. We talked a lot and a lot came out of both of our feelings and we really are on the same page
Sunday I didn't go to work, instead I helped J work on some fixups in his house. It was fun. My parent's came over and helped, and we all hung out and bullshitted. They really like him a lot. I also might be getting a pug. A friend of mine let me know someone she knew was getting rid of a 3 year old male pug, and since I've had pugs in the past, I said I would talk to her. I really want a dog of my own again and I miss my babies. I just feel really good.

I'm gonna be a dick here....don't get a dog when you're struggling to feed yourself. I'd also like to say that I think moving in with J is still a bad idea. You were just lusting after another man...I get you're talking about lots of stuff and feeling good about things, but it's too soon and you're not ready.

Dogs are expensive. Between the food and the vet bills it is crazy. I think it is awesome that you want to do a good thing, but you can barely feed yourself. There are always dogs to rescue so I would wait until you are more financially secure.
And moving in with J? Bad, bad, bad idea. Given that in the past 2 weeks or so you are getting drunk and flirting with another man, you aren't ready to move in together. Don't disrupt your stability right now. There is no rush on any of this.

Very busy!
Friday night dinner out with the besties to continue the CFP celebration.
Saturday I got my hair done and then spent the entire afternoon cleaning out crap from my room and DS' room that I don't use anymore.
Was supposed to go out to dinner with a guy friend of mine Sat. night. He's been trying to get me to consider taking things out of the "friend" zone and consider dating him. Uhhhh, but then he stood me up. He told me he wanted to break things off with a girl he's been seeing first, to have a clean slate with me. Ummm, wouldn't you have thought about that BEFORE the morning of the date. It seemed fishy to me and I'm over it. We'll just remain friends. I may post about it in a separate post, just to get other opinions but I'm pretty set on not letting him "make it up to me" as he says he's going to. ::insert eye roll::
Saturday night, ended up going out for dinner and wine with two girlfriends and we had a blast. We found the best bottle of sauvignon blanc. We are officially in wine love with it.
Sunday went to breakfast with another friend and then to the river with one of the besties. P was away with XH so he got home in the early evening and we had dinner with my mom. He was absolutely exhausted!
Oh and I joined match.com again on a whim. I was reading a trashy magazine at the river and my horoscope said to give online dating a try. I figured why not?
Friday night-got my hair done then chilled Saturday-cleaned, laundry, lunch/booze, sunset paddle, dinner with a coworker Sunday-rode my beach cruiser 16 miles (that seems far on a beach cruiser!) for Sunday football with friends
I am not liking Monday right now. Total weekend blues!!!!

Weekend was great. Friday night me and T just went to early dinner and to bed pretty early since I had an 8 mile training run on Sat.
Sat. woke up and did my run, then got my hair done which I needed BADLY. I am still riding the freshly bleached hair wave and haven't washed it since -so lazy! Sat. night we went to dinner again since I was STAHVING from my run.
Yesterday we got up and went to the gym, then to breakfast (yes it was a weekend of large meals) then to my nephew's christening. It was a really great family day. They all love T and he loves them and I think he got asked about a dozen times when we are getting engaged - my extended family has no shame! But, he wants it to happen very soon so he was more than ok telling them that. I also told my dad that I'll be moving in with T in November. I only really needed to give him the heads up since I rent from him and I want him to be able to rent out the apartment again soon. I was a little nervous just because I moved out of said apartment 5 years ago with my ex-bf, and had to ask him if I could move back just 5 months later. He seemed happy about the news though.

Friday- Hiked Mt St Helens
Saturday- Went to dinner and a concert with CFG.
Sunday- Went to a Seahawks game with some friends from CF
I am so exhausted!!! I have not been hiking at all lately so it took a lot out of me. I didn't get to sleep in at ALL the whole weekend. Saturday we walked around Seattle a lot and my feet got kinda tore up from my shoes, and Sunday there was even more walking around Seattle. I fell asleep literally 15 minutes after I got home. Just passed out on the couch, didn't wake up for three hours. Then I just went to bed cuz it was bed time haha.

It was nice. I had a couple of "a-ha" moments where I realized how happy I am to be single. One was in the parking lot of the grocery store where this guy was putting groceries in his car and he was pissed off. Like woah pissed. And throwing stuff in there and then I realized... he was arguing with some woman in the car. It was funny in a sad I'm so glad I am single kind of way!
