Let's get this party started...what's everyone up to?? Currently beating my kids into submission (aka bedtime!). Sitting on the couch watching Comedy Central and waiting for one of you bitches to entertain me!!

Plans for the weekend?? I'm kid-free all weekend and plan to run errands, clean the house and maybe catch a movie. I'm meeting my BFF to grab some of her stuff to take to the wedding next weekend and to hang out, at some point. I was supposed to have two dates this weekend....but both dudes have fallen off the face of the earth....whatevs!

What new wardrobe staples did you get/do you plan to get for fall/winter? I bought riding boots...and I don't even ride

Halloween plans? Fuck you....oh, I'm sorry, I mean, I can't participate this year (even though it's my faaaavvvvooorrriittteeee holiday EVA). I will be taking the kids out on Halloween to get some treats!

Thanksgiving plans? I don't ever do anything for Thanksgiving....that's not true, I do a 2 mile run with one of my BFFs and DS and then I spend the day alone. Last year I laid on the couch watching Elf, texting my BFF about the movie since we were both watching it at the same time!

what's everyone up to?? Sitting on my butt right now playing Words with Friends and trying to get the motivation to go bathe my younger son and get him in bed.

Plans for the weekend??
I was supposed to have a date tomorrow night, but his dad passed away, so he had to cancel. Instead, I am going to dinner with my FWB and then hang with him and watch a movie. My younger son is going to his dad's for the weekend and older son will be at a haunted house for the evening. Yay!

Then Saturday morning, I am heading down to the farmer's market where my son's art school is doing an event to raise money for scholarships. They'll be busking and doing a flash mob and selling raffle tickets, so I am helping with that.

What new wardrobe staples did you get/do you plan to get for fall/winter? Just lots of jeans
Halloween plans? Just taking little guy trick-or-treating while older son passes out candy at home
Thanksgiving plans? Going to Mexico to lay on the beach with a friend. Very non-traditional, I know. I have both my kids for Christmas so it's their dads' year for Thanksgiving.

Just have to say...I'm totally jealous of your trip to Mexico plans!

Thanks blueyes. I've been on MM more lately but mostly just not on GBCN because I've been trying to prepare for everything, get stuff set up at work for being out, etc.

In theory, I should only be out for a long weekend at this point. When they figure out what the heck is going on, I'll figure out the next step.
The issue was that there are a few significant issues on going right now with major dealdlines tomorrow and early next week. So I needed to get some things done and some other people up to speed before heading out. I'm the only one who was really up to date with those issues. Thankfully that's no longer the case.

Plans for the weekend?? Renfaire, renfaire, and more renfaire. It's final weekend so this is goodbye weekend
What new wardrobe staples did you get/do you plan to get for fall/winter? Some new camis to go under my low cut shirts so I can wear them to work

What new wardrobe staples did you get/do you plan to get for fall/winter?
Meh...not much. Trying not to spend so much. Possibly some nice long-sleeved shirts and/or a couple new sweaters. Just got a new suit jacket, blouse, and slacks from a friend who was cleaning out her closet--score!

Halloween plans?
My parents will be in town for my birthday next weekend, so celebrating with them. Nothing crazy. On actual Halloween, I'll go out for drinks and apps with friends at our usual Wednesday night bar.

Thanksgiving plans?
Meeting my parents and my sister in Florida to spend Thanksgiving with my dad's family. Should be fun!
