*Siggy Warning*
Re: Weekly Chat 7/31
What are you looking forward to this week?
Just a normal week for me. I may see if my mom wants to go out to the botanical gardens early one morning. Now that my son is walking more, I think he will finally appreciate the Children's garden there.
What are you dreading?
Just the heat.
Have any goals/things you want to get accomplished this week?
The usual cleaning. Maybe start planning DH'a birthday present/s
Random thoughts?
Is anyone else looking forward to Christmas already?
GTKY: What's your favorite comfort food?
My mom used to make this broccoli rice and cheese casserole. She changed the recipe now that she's eating clean, but I still prefer the original cheese whiz version
What are you looking forward to this week? I have some lunch dates with friends, hair appointment and nail appointment. I am also hoping to squeeze in som chill time inbetween.
What are you dreading? It is my last week of freedom
Have any goals/things you want to get accomplished this week? Just try to enjoy my las week of staying home for a while.
Random thoughts? None yet. I am sure I will have something at some point...
GTKY: What's your favorite comfort food? Depends on what I need comfort for. I love chocolate and ice cream but if I'm not feeling well soup
@lalala2004 - I'm not quite ready for Christmas, but FALL is on my mind!
What are you looking forward to this week?
Baseball game Tuesday with my fiance and his parents!
What are you dreading?
Picking up my wedding dress Friday - I really wanted to lose just a couple more lbs. before then.
Have any goals/things you want to get accomplished this week?
Nothing in particular
Random thoughts?
Everyone wants everything done right away. It bugs me.
GTKY: What's your favorite comfort food?
Candy and ice cream!! But I need to get rid of that habit. so I'm trying to turn it into fruits and veggies!
@glitzandglitter Enjoy your last week of summer! I can't believe it's August tomorrow. The kids here go back to school in two weeks.
@diaphena We're having some cooler temps right now as well, thanks to a tropical storm blowing through. What sort of projects do you guys want to do to the house?
@kimberbeep Have fun at the game!
What are you looking forward to this week? Getting over being sick. We both also play Pokemon Go, and one of the little special creature things is being released into the game tonight or tomorrow, so we're hopefully going to be able to go catch it sometime this week. Oh, and getting the test results from my OBGYN appointment last week.
What are you dreading? I honestly can't think of anything at the moment. DH has a cardiology appointment tomorrow, so that's nerve wracking. He was diagnosed with a heart condition when he was in high school, and certain things have happened lately that when we told his PCP, he wanted him to get checked out. So that's tomorrow.
Have any goals/things you want to get accomplished this week? I want to get the house cleaned up, as always. I also have laundry to put away.
Random thoughts? We've had so many doctor appointments in the last week >.< We also found out that our insurance offers a "virtual doctor visit" for things like pinkeye, bronchitis, and other respiratory stuff, so that's how I got my prescriptions yesterday. It's the same price as seeing our regular clinic, so it's a nice option.
GTKY: What's your favorite comfort food? I like pot roast and mashed potatoes. I also like roast chicken. When I'm sick, I prefer this one specific type of soup that my mom always used to make, but we don't have any right now.

@dreamscapes_ DH's birthday is the 17th and mine is the 28th. We will both be 30 for those 11 days. I wish I knew what to do for him. He doesn't need stuff. I may have cookies delivered to his office and get him an iTunes gift card, because we play Pokemon Go, too! Definitely looking forward to Moltres
@diaphena I'm a big casserole fan, but unfortunately DH is not as much of one, but he does like the BR&C!
@lalala2004 I mean the br&c does sound delicious. My mom makes one that's pretty much a chicken pot pie in casserole form, which I need to learn how to make. So tasty!
@dreamscapes_ Most of what we want to do is replace our old hand me down furniture which is starting to wear out. Plus we have several rooms that are half decorated, or not at all yet. I hope you're feeling better, and that your DH's appointment goes well tomorrow.
@kimberbeep yay wedding dress!! What style of dress is it?
@glitzandglitter - Have fun at your lunch dates! I may have read "chill" time as "chili" time, and was very intrigued at the possibility of devoting time to chili.
@diaphena - We've been in our home for over 2 years as well, and definitely have way more stuff to still get done than we should! Furniture shopping is fun, though!
@kimberbeep - Have fun at the game!
@dreamscapes_ - GL for YH's cardio appt and your test results! I've used Doctors On Demand in the past for UTIs because it cost the same as seeing my PCP, but saves me the gas.
What are you looking forward to this week? Getting out of work early tomorrow.
What are you dreading? Doing more work on our friend's house. We spent the whole weekend there and I was there this morning painting and weed whacking, and I'm ready to be done. There's no electricity, so I'm painting half in the dark (very little natural light), and there's obviously no AC so it's hotter than hades. I open the windows to try and get a breeze, but the trees surrounding the house really kill any breeze that comes through.
Have any goals/things you want to get accomplished this week? Getting caught back up on laundry. I'll be caught up on dishes today, but laundry is the bane of my existence. I can load it, I can switch it, but DSS is the one who folds it (it's his one chore, that he actually asked for!).
Random thoughts? I hate when my glasses get smudged. I see other people who have glasses that are streaked and smudged and I can't stand it.
GTKY: What's your favorite comfort food? When I'm sick, it's chicken noodle soup or tomato soup and grilled cheese! When I'm just in a bad mood, it's usually something chocolate.

What are you looking forward to this week?
I'm still in the middle of my daycare providers three weeks off so I have today, tomorrow, and Wednesday off with DH. We're bringing DD to the zoo tomorrow, and DD and SD to the beach Wednesday.
What are you dreading?
DH is going away Wednesday night until Sunday.
Have any goals/things you want to get accomplished this week?
I want to get this shelf thingy out of our bathroom to make room for a potty for DD. This requires some major organization since it's full of junk.
Random thoughts?
I'm getting pedicure right now and my butt fell asleep
GTKY: What's your favorite comfort food?
@diaphena That makes sense! We want to replace our couch when we move, but we'll see if that actually happens.
@kimberbeep Your dress sounds pretty!
@izza2 Yeah, our virtual thing is also open when our clinic isn't, so that's a perk of it. We'll see how the appt tomorrow goes! I think everyone here hates laundry. It seems like it's a universal annoyance. I hope the painting goes well!
@KFrob Good luck with the organization! I hope you guys have fun at the zoo and beach

What are you looking forward to this week?
I have a haircut on Wednesday. And DH is going to come have lunch with me at work one more time before he has to go back to school next week.
What are you dreading?
I thought I had one of these, but now I'm drawing a blank.
Have any goals/things you want to get accomplished this week?
Get a guest list for my almost-SIL's bachelorette party. But that's actually on her, not me.
Random thoughts?
I had a dream last night that my coworkers were all congratulating me on being pregnant, and when I told them I'm not, they all just said "Ah, right" *wink wink*. I woke up really irritated and frustrated.
Also, our power just came back on after being out for 2 hours. Luckily, it came on just as it was getting really dark outside.
GTKY: What's your favorite comfort food?
I love macaroni and cheese. And chocolate. Always chocolate.
Sometimes I think about hiring a housekeeper to come in like twice a week and help us, but, I'm not only too poor, I also get a little weirded out thinking of someone coming in my house while I'm not there.
It's one of the reasons I thought about hiring a dog walker when I was still working 12 hour shifts at the hospital, but decided against it.

@kimberbeep - Your dress sounds beautiful! When is the big day? Also, I don't think I would go to a virtual doctor for major things but something like pink eye? Heck yeah! So much easier...
@dreamscapes_ glad you are starting to feel better. GL to your DH today with his appointment! I love the idea of a virtual dr.
@izza2 - you win the friend of the year award! How much longer until you are finished?
@KFrob - I hope you enjoy your time off/family time! I love Thanksgiving food too - YUM!!
@secretstapler - That is awesome that you have nothing to dread this week. I hope you have a great week!
@KFrob - Thanksgiving is probably my favorite holiday simply because of the food! Sweet potato casserole and green bean casserole are my top two favorites though!
@kimberbeep I don't know about other virtual doctor services, but ours is mainly for minor things like pinkeye, bronchitis, the flu, etc. Things that can be easily diagnosed without lab tests or much examination, so not like a broken bone or seizures or something else more serious. But yeah, I get being weirded out by it.
@glitzandglitter Thanks! We're hoping the new developments aren't anything too serious, but we'll see what happens.

@izza2 and @glitzandglitter YEP, the one thing I've learned so far from this home ownership thing is that the projects really never stop. We get one thing done and then notice 3 more things that need doing
@Secretstapler That dream does sound frustrating!
@kimberbeep I bet your dress is gorgeous. Just over a month to go! Woohoo!
Im mobile so trying to tag everyone is near impossible sorry ladies. But I hope everyone is doing well and some of these comfort foods sound awesome!!!
Not sure when I'll be able to check in much, but just wanted to pop in and tell you ladies I've been thinking about you!! And hi to all the newbies!
Looking forward to: not much this week honestly. Very busy week and weekend!
Dreading: I'm off work Wed-Fri and I don't actually get a break or to sleep in
Goals: have a good experience at my first vendor event as a consultant!! I've been having a terrible time with getting sales, and this was supposed to be a way to make more money for my family
GTKY: I love Panera tomato soup with a bread bowl.
