So how was everyone's weekened?

Mine started out great with friday night went to a social for the meet up group I am in. I met NCTravelinggirl who introduced me to an awesome french bakery that is open 24/7.

Saturday I played flag football which my team played at 11 but one of our 10 oclock teams was short a girl so I subbed in. Well I sprained my ankle in the first game first half and decided to keep playing. I was only going to sub into my teams game at 11 but then one of the other girls cleats unglued and she went head over tail and hit her head which made it so I had to play. My ankle felt good until about 15 mins left in the last game.
The rest of saturday and all of sunday I spent on the couch with my ankle on a pillow, either being iced or wrapped up. I am hoping it is just a minor sprain since I have softball and football this upcoming weekend and I really need to be training for my 1/2 marathon.

    I hope your ankle is okay. I think I would have titled the post F-U 10 am flag football.

    It started out slow...
    Dropped my kiddos off came home went fishing, fish weren't biting, so I went home, cried cause I wanted to go do something, then went to bed.
    Saturday, I went to go try on my bridesmaids dress for my friends wedding, and of course as I predicted, it didn't fit well. I argued with that lady and cried all the way home.
    Then figured out that the races I was going to go to were cancelled because of rain. I avoided going home, stopping to talk to anyone and everyone that would talk to me, and finally decided to go home and went to bed.
    Sunday, I went to a coffee shop watched a little YouTube, then went to the races that were cancelled the day before, and had a blast, sat next to a co-worker and felt like I finally "belonged".

    That 4 hours at the race made my whole weekend.

    Ugh, I'm horrible.

    Fri. night was mellow, just stopped at my parents house for awhile. Then Saturday picked up my almost 2 yr old niece and met a friend with her 7 kids at the beach. We had a great time and I only get to see her once a year as she lives in MD. My niece had a great time as well--we weren't even in the car 3 minutes and she was asleep. Usualy, if you move her from carseat she wakes up--had to move her 3 times, and she woke up then fall back asleep---fast asleep-so cute! Then, we had my dad's bday celebration, and while there my date for that night called and cancelled because his son was sick and had just started vomiting. I wasn't sure if it was just a blow off or not, but he reschedule for possible Sunday.....Sunday I did some cleaning, some shoppint and watched a movie with my cousin. Date called, and said son still sick, but could he come down my way on Monday? His son will be back with his mom tonight, so we have plans for dinner tonight, and see how that goes..............

    Worked, cleaned out my car, worked in the yard, and got a drink with one of my buddies. Pretty mellow weekend.

    quiet. worked, got most of my needed passes for SDCC 2013, walked and jogged a little. I wanted to lift but I got lazy and didn't go to the gym. Sleeping during the mid afternoon for work at night sucked! it has been way warm here. I think it hit mid 80's to lower 90's in my area.

    However it being Monday my actual weekend off work starts in 1 hr. and I don't go back to work until Wed. night. I plan to hit the lake and go for a dip, weights at the YMCA tomorrow, maybe catch a movie.

    Went to a wedding Friday night, had a great time. Tried to rest the remainder of the weekend as I have a cold and have a trip coming up on Wednesday I've been looking forward to for 2 years but my niece was around which meant I spent most of the rest of the weekend chasing after her.

    Hugs I have been in your shoes before. Since you have co-workers who you feel you belong with have you thought about having some of them out for a cookout/BBQ at your place? Maybe this will open it up to be able to hang out with some of them outside of work which I know I find to be a hard transition. I think most people at work assume that the other people they work with are busy all the time they aren't at work so don't set up doing anything outside of work.

    Changed the oil in my car, cut the front and back yard grass, cleaned up the driveway (stupid @ss pine tags), got mosquito bites on my calf and ankle. Drank some Wild Blue blueberry beer. Watched UFC live on Fox. Played Need For Speed-The Run on the PC.

    Its a holiday here and I'm on vacation this week yippi!
    But I went to visit my BFF, she has an 8 yo son and 5 and 2 yo daughters and is preggers and single parenting as her husband has to work away. So I hung out and was fun Auntie Kerry for the weekend..we were pretty laid back which was nice for once..and I got a big snuggle from her oldest who doesn't give out the hugs easily like he used to so that was great.
    Now I'm home and knitting up a storm..boring maybe but its raining out :( I'm hoping to get some kayaking in this week.

    If one has a job they dislike, and/or is completely unsatisfying and unrewarding, I can see why someone would have a F-U feeling towards the alarm clock on Monday morning after a peaceful weekend.

    I think most Western countries have problems of having too many people in jobs that they are ill suited for and are totally unrewarding.

  • I said FU to my alarm clock this morning too, just because I COULD NOT sleep last night and hated getting up. Could have stayed snuggled up in my sheets forever.

    My weekend.... pretty Eh. Grocery shopped, school shopped, fixed my garage doors, helped my dad fix my firefighter friend's truck and had two good workouts Saturday and Sunday. A little depressed this weekend too so I cried a little and tried to get all the pent up anxiety and stress out. LOL Overall a semi-productive weekend! :laugh:

    I say F-U alarm clock because I have to get up at 5am and usually only get about 5-6 hours of sleep on sunday/monday.

    I don't say F-U alarm, because I hardly ever have to wake up to one. :smile:

    What about going to sleep earlier on Sunday nights?

    I'm sooooo tired... Weekend was great, saw loads of people (family and friends travelling over to see me), didn't sleep much.
    Was great fun, we had good weather overall.

    I think I've got more coffee than blood in my veins now, so I too say FU alarm clock!

    Okay I am sorry I tried to be a little creative with the topic instead of "How was your weekend?" I could have said "Are you having a case of the mondays?" would that have been better for you?

    My parents decided on thursday they were coming for a visit so I spent friday night and saturday morning cleaning. My dad helped me construct a retaining wall in my front yard saturday afternoon and we went out to eat saturday night.
    Sunday my mom made a nice homecooked meal, which was so much better than any of the garbage that I cook.

    In between that I landed a 2nd date with a girl I met online who actually took the initiative and picked the day/location. I've never had that happen before and it's kind of awesome. Later the same night my buddy texted me about his cousin he's been trying to set me up with for the past 3 months. Our schedules never coincided and once again they won't.... he is hosting a dinner party the same night I made plans with the other girl.

    I can't sleep most Sunday nights. I think it's a slight anxiety thing about getting back into the week. Always makes Mondays extra sucky!

    Me too Shel, Saturday at least...

    Friday was a lot of fun meeting MissingMinnesota and her meetup group. I then became a bad MFP peep and took her to a bakery of all places, haha.. My favorite and worth every calorie of that salted caramel brownie.

    Saturday I hit a wall. I didn't get up for Zumba and wanted to lie around. Not sure why, not sure where it came from, but that feeling sucked. I wouldn't say I cried much or anything, just totally unmotivated and exhausted. Of course, that could be because I normally go 90 miles an hour so eventually my body says enough. I did manage to get the oil changed and a few minor errands run, but that's it...

    Sunday I kicked my own @ss into gear for being a slouch Saturday. Did all the normal things like laundry, groceries, etc.. then I went shopping (Tax Free weekend in NC!!). I ate at my favorite restaurant by myself on the patio, and I made the biggest splurge of my shopping career (non-electronics anyway and from a consignment store so not attrocious)... I invited a new man into my life. His name is Louis Vuitton. He's what I'll call an investment and worth a lot of money, haha.... did I just substitute shopping for sex? OMG! Maybe I better get back online... haha :laugh:

    It so was an FU Monday - Ended my Friday on a hellish note. Stressed, ready to lay the smack down on someone (did not matter the person). Found out Friday I have shingles, explains the pain, itching and the funky lil rash that has been driving me bat crap crazy. Ate what I wanted and did absolutely nothing really since I cant work out, so walking is the work out of the week. Sunday was my birthday, was to go out to dinner with the bf, but he was still in Santa Cruz with his son. Guess his son is going to camp there for a week and the camp was feeding the families and the kids. So spent my birthday alone with my fur babies burning and itching from shingles.:sad: :grumble:

    Came to work to the same heap load of issues I left Friday, but they were finally resolved by COB today - thanks to a nice gentleman at HQ!!! :flowerforyou:

    Friday after work I had a hair appointment. Went home and caught up on Big Brother. Saturday I woke up and enjoyed a walk with Daisy (my dog). Had lunch with my non-boyfriend boyfriend. That night I worked a beer booth at X-Fest (a big outdoor concert). That ended up being fun - people watching is always fun. Yesterday I did the walk thing again..........was slightly lazy after that..........spend an hour or so with the non-boyfriend boyfriend before he had to work and then went to visit my Grandma. All in all it was a decent weekend.

    My weekend was fabulous. Thursday night I went out with my BFF and had a blast. Then Friday I hung out with Hulk and we went out with my cousin, her hub and another cousin. We went to dinner, to a pub then met up with another couple at a karaoke bar. Everyone talked, laughed, drank, had a great time.
    I stayed at Hulks that night and next day he wanted me to join him at the car show with his friends. I met the rest of the bunch along with girlfriends. Then one of them invited us over for grilled burgers and we had a fun time. His friends all seem great. Then we went to Starbucks, Barnes and nobles and did some shopping around.
    He then wanted to see some UFC so we went to Wild Wings. After that we bought some wine and rented a movie and had a good time. I came home and he left Sunday am. I then hung out with the family the rest of the day.

    I'm having a really good time with this guy. There's no talk about crazy things but we do tell each other we like each other. We seem to be compatible in many ways. He laughs at my jokes, compliments me all the time, played volleyball with me in Old Navy, makes funny voices along with me... :) Heck, we even spent one day at his drinking Irish Car Bombs he made.. We laughed and talked so much.

    Didn't really do anything this weekend because had to work and by the time work was over I just felt like being a lazy bum around the house so I put on my comfy pants and shirt and read and worked on my journal.

    Monday wasn't really an FU for me had a job interview and keeping my fingers crossed for an offer. Off today - Tuesday and then work the rest of the week.
