Weekend Chatter (4/22-4/23)

JessDG

A few of us discussed starting a thread for weekend people earlier in the week.  

What are you guys up to this weekend:?

yasandson

Today i have to cook 2 meals and clean. Ive been awake for 2 hours and all i felt like doing was eat my cinnamon cereals (with milk, yes im one of those lol) while catching up on the bump. Now headed towards the couch and remote control that has a huge red Netflix button on it lol. 
H invited his sister's boyfriend over tomorrow (they we friends before his sister and him got together), and another friend (woman, friend from school... Not really my type of people but she was just brutally dumped after a 5yrs relationship so i felt pity and agreed to invite her). 
I just hate that i managed to avoid cooking(elaborate meals) and cleaning lately (H has been very understanding and helpful) but that i have no way out today because of people coming over tomorrow lol. 
 
Edited cause huge not huga. Pretty sure i missed a few other mistakes. My bad

I'm currently in cloth diaper stuffing hell. Between DS having fifths disease and SO and I having (what I hope are) terrible colds, we've managed to wash the diapers, but not stuff and fold them. Now, I'm staring at a mountain of diapers and I don't wanna do it. 

The weather here is supposed to be not great, so I imagine we won't be doing much. 

yasandson

@shan24 my love tit is in support. Hope both your men feel better soon !

I'm planning to visit my cousin and her new baby next weekend so this weekend I was going to do some crafting so I can make mother's day cards for my 2 cousins, aunt, and my momma and bring them with me since I probably won't see them for the actual day. Hubby just asked if we can go on a lunch date so I'm really excited to spend some time with him today. How will I fit cleaning in there? Who knows!

shan24

@yasandson thanks!  We're all starting to feel better. Now, it's just to catch up on all the housework we skipped this week!

Hey, thanks for starting this  

My "weekend" will be pretty lame. We tend to do more stuff on Monday and Tuesdays when DH is off work and I've grown to hate crowds anywhere we go on Saturdays and Sundays lol. I have a mountain of laundry to make a dent in, and I'm toying with cleaning the shower. Slow down, I know, it's just too exciting. This is why I need to bump on the weekends. The weather is nice here, so we will be outside a bunch I'm sure.

i did stay up til 1am last night watching 13 reasons why. I've got 2 episodes left. I really want to know how it ends but I'm sure I'll be disappointed. No spoilers please! 

we do have to FaceTime MIL at some point. We are going on a family trip to Disneyland in 3ish weeks so we need to do some planning with her. I'm kind of a planning freak. I already have spreadsheets dedicated to the trip. I can't deal with the unknown and they are more of "go with the flow" people.

jesssssr

This weekend im hoping to catch-up on laundry and housework. 
Hopefully H takes DD later to the library so i can finish cleaning. 

JessDG

@shan24. Weather here looks terrible too.  I am going out to lunch today but will probably spend the rest of the weekend in.  I am technically still on modifies bed rest anyways.

jessafishy

We hadn't a crazy busy week so today will be catching up on cleaning and maybe going for a walk to the park.

shan24

@JessDG boo to crappy weather!  It was so nice here two weeks ago that I thought we had turned the corner to spring. I was wrong

nbcarlson

I work all weekend. Luckily I am off pretty early, but I am still so exhausted so waking up at 4:30 this morning really killed me. I need to go to Costco when I get off but I am dreading it. I am going to make DH make dinner so I can nap. Wild weekend for sure! 

JNAthanassious

DH and I are heading to the zoo with DD. We're starting potty training on Monday, so we thought we'd take a fun trip and have some fun since we probably won't be going on any long car rides any time soon. We also have birthday parties and other fun activities this weekend. Have a great weekend ladies! 

OliveOyl2014

We have a birthday party today for my nephew, then I have to work later. Hopefully going to look at a new car tomorrow! 

monstera13

Ooh I like this new thread!

We actually have a fun weekend planned. Currently driving up to the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Going to meet an old friend for lunch, see a Rangers baseball game tonight, and then stay in a hotel. Looking forward to it! 

feeislove

I work today and then I get to go home and do laundry, clean the kitchen and the guest bathroom. I'm having an all-day house guest thrust upon me tomorrow (which I have already griped about) and I'll have to do more cleaning with them there Super excited about it. 

In case it wasn't obvious I mean very sarcastically. 

TallMomma29

We were supposed to go to a camel farm today, but the high is 92 so no thank you.  Trying to think of a backup plan!

VLillyV

@TallMomma29 um! No way?! That sounds so fun... but heat? No way

DH and I are home so we need to get it together. We tend to plan on the day off. So far we might try some new food spots (think greasy) and shop around aimlessly. It's cold too so I'd rather be indoors. Womp.

Had to return some maternity jeans to Target today that I ended up hating after I tried them on at home. How is it that I can be fine with clothes at the store but hate them once I get home?

So now I'm on the hunt for maternity jeans, hopefully I can make it to the mall today, but I doubt it. We have a birthday party to go to in an hour and a half and the only pants I have are baggy and ugly and 9 years old 

I need to catch up on laundry and cleaning this weekend. Maybe, just maybe, I'll start on organizing my office since it's a giant disaster of fabric and papers  who am I kidding, I've been talking about organizing for over 4 years. 

I also need to take pictures for our fb announcement and get around to finally posting one lol

soprano19

@TallMomma29 a camel farm? This is a thing? I must know more.

+1 for cleaning this weekend. H cleaned our shower this morning and we have laundry going, which seemed like enough to reward ourselves with watching Fixer Upper.

Boobopgirl

Well,my in-laws stole the kids again, so probably spending some "quality time" with hubs, cooking some food thats too spicy for the kids, and yes...cleaning, folding laundry and pulling together homeschool stuff for next week (push to the finish).

Recital is tonight for my violin student.  We have a bunch of music teachers at our church so we go in together on recitals and its always a fun time.  Trying to figure out how to dress my blump for that...

feeislove

Idea: Why don't we start a birthday thread? Like with a spreadsheet and everything. OR we can just add our birthdays to the October 2017 Spreadsheet. I think this would be a nice way to remember each other's birthdays and maybe have a "Happy Birthday ______" thread that day. Thoughts?

JessDG

@feeislove.  I like that!  

yasandson

Cant remember which mom that was but its someones bday tomorrow, almost sure lol. 

Edited cause ive just remembered its @curlyq423  

soprano19

@sjohns08 I'm the same way with clothes in the store vs. at home. It's especially bad if I'm shopping with someone else and they talk me into buying something I'm on the fence about.

@Boobopgirl music teachers unite!

yasandson

Adding bdays to spreasheet would add so much work for @jessafishy i feel like her approval of @feeislove 's idea is mandatory lol

TallMomma29

@VLillyV @soprano19 there is a camel dairy farm here that only opens once per month to the public and there is a show, petting zoo, and camel rides!  They also have a gift shop where you can buy random things like camel milk soap.  So random that it seems so awesome!  We might try tomorrow when the high is only supposed to be 79.

feeislove

@yasandson Very good point. What are your thoughts @jessafishy ?

I'm in need of new bras so I looked up Motherhood Maternity since there's one close and it looks like they've got a good sale going till tonite. Leggings and yoga pants are BOGO 50% off and all sale is an extra 40% off. I don't trust sizing with online shopping but if you have one close then you can go exchange. Bras are buy 3 get one free so I think I'm getting 4 bras today!

jessafishy

I'm fine with adding birthdays. We should just do a separate sheet for those probably and I'll just add anyone who wants added.

Ohhhh heyyyy! I'm in DFW and a friend is coming up to see me for lunch too. I'm texting her now because if we're BMBuddies I need to know haha

curlyq423

@yasandson Yep, it is. Good memory

Went to a kid's sale with my mom last night and she got us some baby stuff (the playmate with piano attached and the fisher price sit me up seat), they were only $15 each and in great condition. 

Today my husband and I went to a different sale and it was half price day. Scored a bouncy seat for $9 and it's also in good condition without any stains! 

We then then went to lunch and came home. That's when I freaked out when I went to the bathroom and saw blood on my underwear. It seemed to have stopped and other than puking up my breakfast before we left this morning, I've felt fine. Now I'm taking it easy the rest of the weekend trying not to freak out.

yasandson

@curlyq423 dont freak out, just try to take it easy for the weekend like u said.  If it was a little blood im sure its nothing.Do you have an apointment scheduled soon? Or if you're worried maybe just give your Dr a call and ask, so that you re reassured quickly! 

curlyq423

@yasandson maybe the size of a quarter or two and nothing since. My next appointment isn't for another 2.5 weeks. I'll keep an eye on it and call if it happens again or more often! Thanks for the encouraging words!

joforyoga

Well we had a super busy week and now I'm at my in laws for the weekend. They live a few hours away and it's really hard to see them because my hubby works 7 days a week right now. I'm doing my daughter in law duty by coming alone with my son:) they were dying to see him!

JessDG

@curlyq423. Was it bright red?  I've unfortunately had my fair share of bleeding.  If nothing else happens this weekend, you may want to call and let your doc know just so they have it on record.  Hope that was it for you though.  

ksf13

We aren't doing much. We did go eat tacos at an awesome authentic Mexican place nearby, then we let DD spend her $10 that she got from my grandparents for Easter lol. Now we are at home being lazy and watching Octonauts. 
Tomorrow, we have church, then I have no idea. The weather got warm for a week or so, now it's cold and rainy again. :P 

soprano19

@curlyq423 I hope everything is fine!

curlyq423

@JessDG I think it may have been? By the time I saw it, it was dried up and looked a little dark, so I don't know. It happened in the 2-3 hours we weren't home and I didn't use the bathroom when we were out. Thank you! 

curlyq423

@soprano19 Thank you! 

nbcarlson

I'm sure everything is okay @curlyq423, but sending lots of good vibes anyway!
