Good morning, lovelies! I'm sitting here with my coffee looking out at the lake... looks like a storm is coming today, but blue sky is fighting its way through the clouds. I couldn't help thinking of all of you and how that's what we're looking for, too. A break in the storm clouds and blue skies ahead.
What's everybody up to this weekend? In the US, it's Labor Day & a 3-day weekend. I'm hoping to set up our projector and watch a movie outside on our lawn sometime this weekend and invite some neighbors over.
Have fun watching a movie outside! I've thought about getting a screen/projector to do that at some point too.
I'm so glad it's a long weekend. We've only been in school for 5 days, but I'm exhausted already! The school year is going well so far, but by the end of the day yesterday, I was ready to see my students go home.
I don't really have any plans this weekend, but I'm ok with that.
TTC since July 2012 BFP 5/22/13. Lap. to remove ectopic and dx with endo. 6/16/13

As for us, we got home from the football game (Go MSU!!!) around 2am , so still recovering from that...it was so much fun though! Later today there's a food, music and art festival around us (Third Eye Blind is playing -how funny is that?). It's usually super crowded but really fun.
Have a lovely weekend ladies!!

@bethkate2 I hope you can relax this weekend! Crack open some wine
@Amybunny30 yessss! Kitchen time!! Let me know what you guys decide on!
@CFearsy have fun with your MIL. It's nice that you can go do stuff with her and not want to kill her. That's how my MIL is too
@MSU_Girl1202 fuck yes third eye blind! Lol their self titled album is one of my all time favorites!! Have fun
AFM- I literally have zero plans. Right now DH and I are laying in bed (just woke up at 9--sleeping in! Woo!) and I'm bumping and he's reading about guitars. We're being lazy. Maybe well go get breakfast but I doubt it. He works today so I'll probably just clean the house and watch chick flicks!
@bookishmama what a brilliant idea! Our neighborhood just did an outdoor movie night watching Mrs. Doubtfire on a huge inflated screen. It was a blast!
@Amybunny30 - aren't new appliances unbelievably satisfying? We just got a new washing machine and we were surprised at how exciting it was!
I'm performing outside all weekend at a county fair and probably eating WAY too much junk food (but I just LOVE kettle korn!). Hoping the rain holds off.
@bookishmama Your morning sounds so peaceful! Hope the weather holds out for your movie plans! @BethKate2 Hope you have a relaxing 3-day weekend! @Amybunny30 Have fun kitchen shopping! @CFearsy Hope you have a good day with the in-laws! @MSU_Girl1202 Have fun at the festival! I'm still recovering from the football game (U of Minnesota) we went to Thursday night, so I feel your pain! @rslh10 Enjoy your lazy morning! @shanaUW Hope the weather holds out for you!
AFM, I'm planning to go for a long run in a bit and then later today we're heading to my brother's house for dinner. The rest of weekend will be spent relaxing before I have to fly to Texas for work on Tuesday.
@EurydiceNymph hope the weekend goes well! Enjoy your quiet couples time!
@MrsKush1014 good for you running! I have been so lazy it's really bad.
AFM, I'm sitting here waiting for mh to get his butt in gear. After all my brainstorming all week and everyone's great suggestions today we are....going to the outlets. Pathetic. But I do need some pants that actually fit and the sales are good. Tomorrow my mom is coming over to hopefully help me sort out some iPhone issues. Monday still has no plans.

For myself, today is recovery day from the food poisoning. My friends are going to the Renn Fest and I really want to go, but I know if I do it will probably be too much. And right now I'm eating my first thing other than crackers since Thursday! So far so good... I do have cabin fever though, so I might go out and get a present for my husband's birthday. And tomorrow I'm planning to make pie. Either apple or cherry or both to have for his birthday on Monday. He's working on Monday, so plans for his birthday are pretty tame.
We met in middle school. We got married 15 years later in a February blizzard of 2010.

Beautiful picture! I love the analogy - so true!! DH is off this weekend and we have plans to go buy blinds for the front of our house. We just moved in about a month ago and the back of our house faces woods, but the front faces out toward other houses. So we doing window treatments from the front back as we can afford them.
Other than that, just hanging out and enjoying this rainy day!
