My priorities for this weekend are to keep the family going and get my work for the Friday meeting done. The Thursday job will take over soon and that will be the crisis for next week.

3pm DH and DD to concert
3pm Batto class - will probably cancel - not sure if I can sort transport and DS4
5.30pm Collect DD's friends to movie "Malificent" - yay - 97mins! (Does anyone cheer when movies are edited so they're not hugely long?)
Blessings

Good Morning Lovely Ladies
Tossed and turn a lot the last few nights, think I have too much cover on the bed. Too cold without the extra blanket, too hot with it. It is cold this morning so the temps might drop a little lower overnight so leaving the blanket in place. Not feeling rested.
Yesterday was a work day, which went well, then DD's and I went to local shopping center after school pick up for some retail therapy. Girls got some clothes, I got a new cushion to replace flat (can't be refilled) one and some post-it notes to bookmark recipes. Way to shop Shellie  . Don't really need clothes now (not in this size) but I didn't even see anything that I wished I could buy.
Today it is raining and there is washing to catch up on. So it's hanging indoors and socks and jocks through the dryer. I am planning some extra exercise today (to make up for yesterday, no exercise and over on calories). Then DD16 is going to watch StarStruck while I go to a Jewelery Party. Then DD16 has a farewell dinner to go to and I will come home and cook dinner for the menfolk and whoever else turns up (not sure about GF's plans or DD20's plans just now). Then I will be out to pick up DD16. Also want to vac through front half of house. Got the back half vacced 3 times last week (cleaning up packaging messes) but haven't managed the front half in well over a week. Then it's just Daily Routines (which I have started).
Hoping to start reading 'The Fault in Our Stars' this weekend, the movie comes out soon and DD's are busting to see it, so I want to have read it first, otherwise I won't be involved in the conversation "movie V's book" (and the answer is usually 'book better'). So I should be pretty busy and fairly organized if things go to plan.
Ok time to get a move on. Hitting the Elliptical and Treadmill 1st for a quick 30mins, then interval-ling between housework and exercise this morning. DS21 will be here about 11 to be picked up for golf, so I'd like to be able to sit down and talk to him for awhile.
Wishing you all a Super Saturday and a Wonderful Weekend.
Elizabeth, DS21 did soccer for about 7years (if memory serves me correctly), I remember praying for rain often. Me and DD's standing around freezing while he played. Karma has him though, it has been repaid by many years of sitting through DD's dance and drama concerts (sometimes he looks like he's standing in the rain while he watches  ). But he's a good big brother, always tells them how good they were.
Roll on School Holidays and a chance to catch your breath.
Medusa, Rug Up hun, bbrrrrrrrr. It's cold here too, so I feel you. Layers and maybe a thermos of coffee or hot chocolate to help warm you from the inside. I hope it clears for the party.

 Hi Everyone
Elizabeth, i know how you feel. Sometimes even tho activities are fun we are just out too much. Im needing some down time today and Im feeling DH is a bit shirty at me but out or visitors every night for a week is getting to me. I hope your rain dance works!!  Medusa, hope it doesn’t rain at the party. You are always going to parties lol Shellie, its raining and misty here today- just miserable. I have washing to do/dry as well  isn’t it a pain cooking when you just dont know how many are home for dinner?!
We had a really nice night at our DFs last night. They cooked a beautiful 3 course meal and I love roast lamb!!
My house doesn’t seem to be much of a priority this week. My golden retriever dog is molting. Im brushing/vacuuming often but feel the floors are still dirty when i see dog hair  Im also spending a lot of time online to do with our holiday.
Today Im going to a day spa JUST to buy a voucher for DS20DGFs birthday- Maybe I SHOULD stay for the afternoon to see if its any good 
Tonight we are going out to a restaurant in The Dandenongs to have dinner with my DB and DSis and their spouses so that will be fun.
Im thinking about making tomorrows birthday cake today. It should keep fresh if I cover it all in icing shouldn’t it??
Hope you all have a Great Saturday x x |

Judy - feels like I am always going to parties, this is the start of the birthday season with DH's family
It didn't rain & was a really pleasant day, a few puddles here and there but it was a great day. Am really tired now though.

Shellie, I loved The Fault In Our Stars! I've decided to wait until the film comes out on DVD before watching it (less hassle than trying to find a babysitter and an evening when I'm awake enough to enjoy it  but I'm looking forward to it. Trying to get my brain together for the rest of today, so will make a list of what I want to get done: Today specifically: - Repot pear tree my mother bought for us (grrrrr - why did she think I'd like a birthday present that just makes more work? Oh, well, I'm sure it was well meant - but it's damned annoying, especially when there are books I'd have loved to get)
- 15 mins decluttering
- Weights routine
- Cut up chicken for dinner
Over the course of the weekend:
- Get some of my desk jobs done
- Catch up on work stuff
OK, DH is just about to go into the garden to do the pear tree-related heavy lifting, so I'll need to do that now. Happy Sunday to those of you who are twelve hours ahead!
