What you up to peeps??
I'm off to a wedding of a very dear friend
I've known him for about 10 years. He met his bride on Match.com!!! And they are both in their 40's!! So, for all you skeptics out there, it's possible! They are very much in love 
There will be lots of people I know and I'm very much looking forward to it. In fact, we've all been looking forward to it all year and its one wedding I dont mind attending on my own, particularly as I know a certain someone will be there :bigsmile:
I've just done HIIT skips, pushups and planks so I dont feel as fat in my dress!!! :laugh:
Have fun :flowerforyou:

Hitting up an outlet mall to get started on my new fall/winter wardrobe. Going from a size 14 to a size 4/6 in a year makes each new season expensive. Good friends 35th Birthday tomorrow night, out for family style Italian. Carb-haters nightmare!
Steelers football on Sunday. Which means early morning workout, errands and plopping on the couch with a beer by 4:30.
Have a great one folks!0 -

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWzer!!!!! Congrats you!!! WTGoooooooooooo!!!! :drinker: :drinker: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
That is one cost that I would happily endure!! :bigsmile:0 -
I have the day off today so I can drive up to Ohio. Feeling a little tired so taking it easy. Thankful it's ONLY a 5.5 hour drive!
Saturday plans include taking my stepdad to the Ohio State vs. Cal game as a belated Father's Day gift. After the game, we're meeting my mom and going to see my aunt in the hospital. Looking forward to plenty of sleep though! And perhaps a little break from all the calorie counting... 20 months have yielded great results from it but is exhausting. Not that I'm planning to eat a whole chocolate cake or anything.... but Jerry's Pizza, the best whole in the wall bar in Chillicothe, OH, has my name all over it!
Sunday will mostly be the drive back to NC.
Hope you all have a great weekend!0 -
Hey, NCTravellingGirl, you are coming into my territory! I live in New Albany...Northeast suburb of Columbus. Enjoy our great town and the pizza sounds tasty! Enjoy the game and GO BUCKEYES!0

Thanks! Yeah, I just got caught up with paying off my summer wardrobe now I get to replace the fall/winter. Fun stuff but very expensive...but unless I want to look like "Frumpy the Clown" it's a must!0 -
I had to work last weekend, so now I am exhausted and plan to lay low the first part of the weekend by catching up on sleep, exercise and errands. Most likely a 3rd date on Sunday, but I'm still not sure how I feel about him yet.
Anna- Have fun at the wedding. Something tells me you'd be a fun time out on the dance floor!
Kristen - Amazing progress. Enjoy your shopping spree!
NC- Have a nice trip!0 -
Well tonight I'm going to a rock concert with Mr. Nice Guy after I drop the kids off at grandmas.
Work tomorrow in the morning then a nap before hitting the bar.
Sunday pick up the kiddies from grandmas then watch the JETS stomp the steelers with the kids(sorry Kristen ) hopefully anyways.
And if all goes to plan watching the avengers with the kids before bed time. Then Mr Nice guy is supossed to come over and watch a movie.0 -

Oh yes... this ^^^^^^^ is fabulous!
I've had a difficult couple of weeks....
Tomorrow I'm sending my youngest back to WA to live with her dad - she flies out tomorrow morning. She's just gotten too much for me to deal with. I have a lot of "failure" feelings about this but I think she'll go back and realize that living with mom is a luxury. My heart is heavy but I know it's the best thing for her.
Tomorrow night... I'm going to go hang out with a friend for a much-needed mental and emotional break from reality. LOL0 -
It's only my Wednesday of the work week. No weekend fun for me. Gym, work, sleep. Rinse and repeat.0

awwwwwwwww honey, that's tough. But you know it's not your fault. Kids/teens go through phases, she'll get over it and be back to adorable soon!! :flowerforyou:
I'll have to tell you about some of my phases as a yougster - in private of course!! :laugh: I'm pleased to say, I turned out ok!0 -
This weekend I am taking it easy this weekend since my next two weekends I will be traveling.

Sunday - meeting my running partner at 8am and then have softball followed by football watching in the afternoon.0 -
Nothing...yet again
Sunday my son's dad is coming over to buy him a bike for his birthday.0 -

Hi Hrshygrl00 - not seen you around. Welcome to the peeps! :bigsmile:0 -
I have the new guy stopping by on his way to a meeting in my town tonight, so will see him briefly. Then I am going to start bringing my nieces to gymnastics....they are both 3 and it starts tomorrow--special auntie/niece time and I am looking forward to it. After that, I am going sailing with my friend, and then possible fireworks show with new guy. Sunday is new guys beach house, and possible meet his daughter. Even though it is VERY early, she is a teenager and VERY excited to meet me so he is good with it, and fine with me
Hope everyone has a great weekend!!! Sounds like lots of fun will be had all around0 -
I read something about eating a whole chocolate cake. That sounds SO yummy.0

Work, work, work... And a graffiti course on Sunday!0

Huge congrats Kristen!! Amazing accomplishment!! :flowerforyou:
Busy weekend for me. High school peeps in town for a 5K Walk to raise funds for Domestic Abuse programs. One of our friends is very personally involved with the organization sponsoring the walk. Have to skip the winery trip with the girls to attend a friend's father's 80th bday party, then will reconnect with the ladies for dinner.
Hopefully Sunday will be a little less busy, but will still have some friends staying at my house. Watching the Redskins game is on top of the priority list! The new rookie quarterback looks to be a great addition to the team so far. Fingers, toes and eyes crossed that it stays that way.
Have a great weekend everyone!!0 -

CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN the house.....simply because it needs it.
Then maybe go visit one of the kids friends (I work with her mom) and chill in the great outdoors.0 -

WOW! Good for you! Would love to get your tips and see pics!
Didn't know you were a Steelers fan!!!! Woot woot! Me too! Janie is too! So I will be on that sofa with you .. in New York .. lol. I am not happy about all the injuries so early in the season. Read yesterday that Ben's knee was wrapped, Harrison isn't playing and Troy may not play. Grrrrrrr. Why doesn't our whole first string just sit out. That would be great.

Definitely!!!
to the one whose daughter is going to live with dad .. it is always a fear of mine, but don't feel like a failure .. I think that divorce or separate households just breeds that kind of behavior. If you were living together as a family, she would have no where to run and would have to work out her issues .. it isn't your fault. Things will work out.
Have a great weekend all! I am going to clean forever and a day and then watch football. So glad it is football season again!!!
Go Steelers!!!!0 -

Uh yeh .. I want to do this too .. lol0 -

Good plan! Good luck with that special someone at the wedding!0 -
Same old same old for me. Taking care of Celena, and hanging out with Steve as much as I can.
I'm also going to a wedding tomorrow, Auntie!
Today is day 11 of 30 of my Whole30 challenge.. the weekends are the hardest! It's going to be hard to resist the wedding cake.0 -
Tonight was errands and relaxing after a tough week... drink in hand now! I have been socializing with friends on FB for about an hour now, so I figure it's social drinking
Tomorrow is Weird Movie Night at my friend's house (her invention). It's pot luck and the new guy is possibly coming - I'll find out in the morning. I don't blame him if he wants to skip though since it will be the fourth time we've seen each other and he'll be thrown in with a couple of my friends (and a few people I don't even know). I have lots of cleaning to do tomorrow before fun time and I need to get a good workout in.
Sunday will be a pretty full workday for me, but I can at least work from home and get another workout in again.
All in all, not a very exciting weekend.
Good luck at the wedding, Anna.Personally, I'd have no problem avoiding the wedding cake, buffcupcake - especially if it's a fruitcake one. Gross!
Happy shopping, Kristen! You have done amazing! That's inspirational!

Babysitting, doing math homework, studying for my math exam, writing an essay about the media and it's effect on women's self-esteem; SUPER fun stuff... I have no social life. All my friends have moved away and there are no men for me to date. I get most of my enjoyment nowadays by watching reruns of American Dad at 3 am. Welcome to my life.0

I'm disappointed Laura. :frown: This is not college as it was meant to be. Have a little fun! I'm not saying that college should be like Animal House, but there should be a social component, and it does not necessarily need to be all about excess alcohol consumption. Perhaps find an exercise group amongst peers. That could be a good social opportunity.
I find it very difficult to believe that there are no men for you to date. You live in a populous urban area. Perhaps you need to re-frame your perspective.
I am sure the essay on media and women's self esteem will be interesting. I took two mass media studies classes in undergrad.0
