Fabulous Friday Wake-up

Good morning and TGIF!
What's in your cup this AM? Trying to wake up with a cup of black and decaf....
Week just flew by, but glad it's Friday!
What's your weekend going to be?
We have a big running/walking event in town this weekend. My girlfriend and I are going to man the water station at the 7.5 mile for the half-marathon. Had fun doing it last year and got pretty wet.. Hope for no rain... Fun to cheer the runners on.  Bought a new charcoal grill and got to test it this weekend with some burgers or chicken.
Ahhh.weekends.
Have a good Friday!

Good morning Deb and the rest of Michigan

In my cup this AM is coffee with a splash of Torani SF caramel and then a dusting of Cinnamon. If I close my eyes and move my teeth up and down I can pretend that I'm eating a yummy Cinnamon Roll..Ok that was a little far fetched! lol But I have a great imagination. :o)

Yes TGIF for sure, were tearing off our front porch starting tomorrow morning. DH is renting a jack hammer from our local Home Depot. As the porch is brick and cement and is 23 ft long.  We heard its suppose to rain Saturday and Sunday. :o(   So DH and SIL may get wet but its got to get done. We will be grilling out burgers and hot dogs.
Hope you all have a nice week-end.

 Jan,
I hear the morals are popping up. Have you seen any in your area as of yet?
My son lives just north of us and he has a few in his yard already.

Good morning everyone!

Sitting here drinking a mug of regular coffee with SF french vanilla creamer and splenda.  I took the day off work today but was up at 7 and cooked breakfast for my son before he had to be at work.  Then I ran to the tanner, gas station and store.  So much for sleeping in :-)

I am heading to Chelsea this weekend but stopping in Ypsi today to take my daughter out to lunch and drop off all her liquid shakes that came in the mail.  She starts her liquid diet on Sunday!  Her PAT's are next Wednesday.  She went to her nutrition class yesterday at Hurley and they spend some time explaining what will happen in the hospital and how you wake up with the drains and catheter and how they put that tube down your throat once you are asleep.  She said 'now I'm scared sh*tless mom'.  Good thing she only has 2 weeks to think about it 

I don't have any plans for the weekend other than going to a second hand store in Ann Arbor Saturday and just hanging out with Steve.  It's supposed to be rainy all weekend.

Have a good weekend everyone!

I will be getting the lawn mower out for its 2010 debut. lol.
my lawn is pretty shaggy. and I cant put off giving it a hair cut any longer.

double protein coffee for me today too.
I made some polish style city chicken yesterday. And I always make enough for an army when I do make them. So I don't have to cook today. yippee for me

QOTD: describe your secret induldge!


mine is the bathroom. I go in there shut the door and fill the tub and just soa****il the water gets cold.  great place to think.

Mary please tell us about your polish style city chicken..

I'm drinking a decaf sugar-free Swiss Mocha coffee - one of those powdered mixes, I think from International Coffee.  It tastes great!  I am about ready to have a protein smoothie - I might use this Swiss Mocha coffee mix and try something new with my smoothie. 

For this weekend - I need to do some more gardening/weeding in the backyard.  My daughter has to serve at the 8th grade confirmation breakfast on Saturday (she is a 7th grader), and on Friday night I am going to do prep work for the breakfast with some other moms.  But the rest of the weekend is mine!  I hope to get in some nice long walks - we have great trails around here and my dog loves them.  I need the exercise! 

Morning everyone

Just had my toast and catching up on my DVR shows as I organize some coupons for Meijer today and then some pictures for a scrapbooking retreat that I am going to tonight. We are heading out today after DH gets home because we are going to order some windows for our bedroom. Some days I hate being a home owner. ROFL

I am tired today so I am glad that I got to sleep in for a bit. Thank goodness, it seems that I am so exhausted lately.

I am not working tomorrow so we are going to take Big Guy to the zoo and then have a picnic either there or at a local park just to get out and about. A low cost day for us. Then we might go to the movies this weekend just the two of us. We have not had a date in a long time so we need to get out just the two of us to kind of reconnect.

QOTD: My secret desire at the moment is to go to Disney World. I am really wanting some excitement and fun. I am tired of being Ms. Responsible and want to let loose a bit!

Good Morning, going to have a decaff protien coffee in a few minutes once I get my butt up and go to Mc D's to get a cup of decaff coffee (McDonalds is only 2 blocks from my house and one of the only places in our small town) I need to go buy some Biggby decaff to make at home. We've never made cofffee at home but hubby and I are both big fans of coffee these days ever since I started doing my protien drinks for pre op which was a few weeks ago.

QOTD: Well Tonight Alyssa (my step daughter ) has an art show in Novi so we'll head down there her art work is on display she was chosen to be displayed she is pretty excited! We pick her up for the weekend. Sat we have a birthday party for my nephew who turns 2. and Sunday hubby works up in Traverse City so i'll be by myself with the kids which i'm not sure what i'm going to do yet because I can't lift and Alaina is still in a crib she's 20 months old and 28lbs.  I think my dad might come stay with me. I really need to catch up on homework I haven't done it in the past 3 weeks because of surgery and was really busy with all my pre op stuff I need to get it all caught up.

Morning all,

Had my coffee and protein shake already, on to iced tea soon.  I was running so late this AM lunch is cheese and crackers w/ some grapes on the side.  Kinda looking forward to it.

Tomorrow I'm having lunch with a childhood friend that I have not seen in 25 years....yikes, I hope we still get along and have something to talk about.  Besides that I'm laying low for the weekend, the weather will prevent me from working in the garden, so the mulch will have to wait till next week.

Try to stay dry this weekend,

Edie

Good morning.   Drinking my coffee (2nd cup...didn't finish the first).  Eating a toast and ham sandwich.  Dub is napping.  I should be doing many other things, but I'm not.  At least, I am showered, got some laundry going and am having breakfast.  I have SO MANY things to do while he naps, but an hour and a half or so is just not enough time!  But that's ok!  

QOTD:  I'm waiting for the carpet installers to call and schedule our install for next week.  So, we will put all the finishing touches on the basement so it's all ready for carpet (like cleaning up, etc), this weekend.  I was hoping to mow, but with all the rain we're supposed to get, that probably won't happen.  

Have a great day! Enjoy your Friday!
