Well, my Friday/weekend just got a whole lot better! DH just called me to tell me he got a promotion at work that came with a 12% pay increase and a higher incentive target! Can't wait to start paying off some debt faster and building up our savings to where it should be.
Softball practice for DD tonight. No other plans this weekend except to pick up a birthday gift for my niece. This will be the last weekend for awhile that there are no plans, so I plan to be a little lazy. My parents are getting ready to move out of our basement and in to their new place. So I'll be helping them move next week.
Was planning football homecoming tonight, but Ds is still not 100%. Still getting back. So Dd is having a friend sleep over. Dh is working this weekend.
Tomorrow, I'm helping a friend set up for a fundraiser for her sister who broke her back and has been off work for several weeks no pay. I am also helping serve and making a better than anything cake for auction. I may stay around and have a drink and watch the band they have playing.
Sunday, DD and I are shopping and out to our favorite pizza place for lunch. This week is picture day and she wants a new top that is not some tshirt, which is her normal attire. Ds is still wavering if he wants to go for the food and on the chance of a new sweatshirt at TJ MAXX.
Heading to the farm to pick peaches Saturday morning and then meeting an old friend for dinner. Sunday my parents are taking DD out for lunch. I'm hoping to do yard work and laundry.

Finished hurricane prep today. My yard has never been more secure. Tomorrow H will go check on our tenants and make sure they're buttoned up and I'll take the little to her first tumbling class, which was not canceled. I may see if the big can drop in on the older tumbling class right after since swim practice was canceled.
After that we will be hanging around the house until after the storm passes.
I'm sitting at open gym for DD. It's mainly team girls with no parents around but DD wants me to help and for me to watch. Not helping as it's obvious parents aren't allowed out like at the little kids open gym. I'm bored! Won't be going again unless she has playmates going with that are from her class.
DH was pissed that he was left to clean the kitchen up. Great way to start the weekend.

Mentally preparing for first day of Kindergarten, which is Monday. Haggling over whether DS will pack lunch or eat cafeteria food.
Did a ton of de-cluttering today, and re-arranged some furniture.
I'm scheduled to work tomorrow, so Sunday is going to be packed with last-minute get ready for school stuff. We were supposed to meet today with another family who might walk/carpool with us, but that has been pushed to Sunday. Other things are piling up to happen Sunday as well. It's going to be a busy weekend.

We're doing the first day of DD's solo gymnastics lessons on Saturday. I wish I was riding a bike outside on a road but I just can't handle it w/everything else going on, so I'm doing my bike trainer.
DS was supposed to have soccer but the season has been pushed way back due to the hurricane. There's some stuff happening at my gym for families so I might take him but I don't know. We'll see.
The weather is gorgeous but I don't appreciate it. All the pretty and nearby nature paths I'd normally run or bike on are destroyed or totally inaccessible b/c of roads under water and crippling traffic. With so much going on around here it's oppressively depressing. And nothing even happened to me directly.
I need a...pumpkin spiced latte or something. Except not that exactly b/c those are actually gross.
