You should have asked last weekend, when we were visiting the kids/FDILs! We visiting the site of S/FDIL1ās wedding next spring and ate in the place where the rehearsal dinner will be.
This weekend, not so fun. H is going to the big city - hopefully with a friend - to a toy/comic show. That will allow me to clean the house well, nap, and happily watch football in peace. If the friend doesnāt go, then I get to go and none of the above will happenā¦
Meeting D1 for lunch today (baby girl is due in 11 days!) and some shopping. Going to the movies with H and D2 tomorrow to see One Battle After Another. Going to see my Mom on Sunday and take her to lunch. Will stop by my Dadās grave on the way home to put some flowers on it.
A busy weekend for me. I think lunch today at a brewery with good smash burgers. Birthday get together tonight with local family. A wedding of longtime friends tomorrow. Sunday is a drive to look at a boat we arenāt buying. My husband wants to see it for the future lol. Maybe we will stop and see my brother who I havenāt seen in a long time.
After spending the previous two days staining 30 12ā pine boards, I will be spending hours this weekend (im)patiently holding a broom handle up against each in support while DH dovetails them into a ceiling for the new bedroom on the lower level of the cabin. We leave to return to AZ on the 23rd, and the weather is forecasted to be warm and glorious this weekend, so weāre planning to knock off work early each day to enjoy some of our dwindling time by the lake and have dinner at a couple of our favorite waterfront restaurants. Unfortunately, all of the creameries around the lake closed after Labor Day, so no more ice cream for me. May have to order a Mudslide for dessert, thoughā¦
Aww Iām not ready for you to head west yet! Seems like you just settled in east. The cabin always sounds so cozy and in nature that must be hard to leave (winter thoā¦)
Our city ( and its ātwinā ) is hosting a big marathon this weekend. SILās brother is running it so he along with their parents are arriving today. SIL and his parents are running the 5k tomorrow morning and I hear GD might be running the ā toddler trotā. We will watch SILās brother run on Sunday from a spot near the lake about a mile or so from my house.
In addition, Hās sisters are driving up here and should arrive tomorrow afternoon ( they will stay with me). They are coming to see us and meet the new GS. This was the only weekend that worked for them and itās a quick trip. I look forward to seeing them.
Trying to pack 2 small bags for a 3 week fall trip in Europe - fun and not fun! Second guessing myself all over the place on what I just rolled and stuck in a packing cubeā¦thinking I may be able to get more in the suitcases if I do not use cubes but cubes are so much easier if I have to swap boats in middle of trip. Will finish it up this weekend and do not plan to cook after Sunday night - leave for the airport on Wednesday. Kidoās staying most nights at my house with the cats so no need for boarding or stopping mail. Getting excited but a little concerned about security lines but our ride will pick us up quite early so should be okay.
We are in Europe this weekend, but @threeofthree, my packing never seems to involve small bags. My bag did weigh 5 lbs less than husbandās this trip, so yay me. We did a 5 mile hike up a mountain today. Tomorrow it may rain, so weāre not sure what we will do. It would be awesome if weather changed and we made it up Mt. Blanc, but itās not looking promising. We start the cycling part of our trip Sunday.
Iām flying with DS1 to London tomorrow. He starts work Monday and I will test out any and all pubs in whatever area he is considering an apartment. Having a beer in Grand Central terminal right now. The weather in NYC has been great for 10 to 15 miles of walking each day.
Headed to a wedding in the city tonight, should be beautiful and fun. Tomorrow is a neighbors party and watching football. Hopefully playing golf on Sunday.
I hope the weather clears for you. Wish I was in shape enough to hike and cycle - Iām just worried about climbing up castle stairs! Iām guessing you are not flying Lufthansa either direction. This return trip on Lufthansa and bag sizes has me flumoxed!
I just check Amsterdam weather - thatās where we start and it shows mostly rain and cloudy until we get there and then like sunny and sixties for our duration - but we will be heading south from there so who knowsā¦.and of course, that is still 6 days away so it all may change!!!
Weāre celebrating a big birthday with our D. Sheās an amazing daughter and we feel very blessed to be her parents. We celebrated with a special family dinner last night.
On Saturday evening, her H is hosting a big gathering for family and friends. Itās going to be fun!
