Girls weekend update

Ladies...Mom confirmed...we are not leaving Michigan.  No Canada visits.  You ladies can choose again if you'd like.....not all parties have passports.  :-)

Three more days

I work 3 days this week.....and I am so ready for the break!!  I spent 3 of the last 4 weeks covering for someone else....and of course it is the busiest job in the business so there was no spare time to work on my own tasks.  Ugh.  It will be a nutty 3 days back (and I am hoping the gal is back to work on Monday...she has been off - started with a vacation, then she had a sore throat so she called in and then it turned into sleep deprivation?  frustrating!!) but.....on the flip side....2 days off = a 4 day weekend with the girls!! Woot Woot!
I am soooooo ready for a girls weekend.

New cast yesterday....seems much more supportive and definitely the black is less obnoxious!!  My piggies were  COLD yesterday....so I will use the toe warmers a girl gave me from work for the weekend adventures.  She also was lucky enough to have the opportunity to wear a sexy boot about a year ago!!  Thanks Vickie.

Homecoming - we won.  Actually, all 3 teams won this week.....HOORAY!  Now we are on all home games for Freshman/  JV for the remainder of the season!!  Hooray!!

Have an awesome week.  I will be back with news of our travels.  (Taking a laptop along for the updates!!)

Guess!! I need your guess!!

Girl’s Weekend 2010 - Once again we are planning our Girl's Weekend..my mom, aunt, cousin, sister in law and I. My mom is the organizer and is not announcing our destination....she is so much fun....so below are the clues and I would like your guess!! A small gift will be brought back to the winner that guessed correctly and even a phone call from the road!!
(Stephanie and I both have them posted at work and have people guessing from there too!!) C'mon play long!!

Clue #1

Point your pinkie up……

when sipping tea!!! And practice your curtsey!!! We will be
visiting royalty!!! ( you may wear your tiara if you like)

Girls' weekend October 2010


Clue #2

With our ride over and the adventure of the first day complete - we will go (some of us will be hobbling) to our sweet retreat for the evening. Perhaps a drink (not tea with royalty this time - maybe Crown Royal instead) or two before we retire with a good night to all!!

Our second day should give us a good outlook for being leaf peepers and adventurers to be off and discover new lands. Perhaps Boatox will be in our future!! An app't at 11 and a leisurely afternoon. We will hopefully arrive in time to taste some of wares the people are preparing. A Taste of the Green.

Clue #3

We have had a few clues - leaf peeping - coach ride - tiaras (which are polished and ready) - so add
cameras ready for flora, fauna and little people houses

Hiawatha (perhaps the first line)
Shopping with a BRIDGE VIEW
and, A short retreat to our SWEET Retreat.
We are so excited to go and to hear your guesses


ALSO, on our day of departure - each participant will fill out THEIR guess of our destination!!!


NEXT DAY 2

Baget - Boatox - App't @ 10AM - Games - Walk the " Valet Service

Oh Oh Getting excited and ahead of myself!!!!

NOW WHEN YOU MAKE YOUR PREDICTION! YOU MUST COME CLOSEST TO OUR DESTIATION AND IF YOU FIGURE OUT THE FINAL TRIP WE WILL BRING YOU BACK A SOUVENIOR - REMEMBER WE ARE BUDGETED LADIES AND YOUR REWARD MAY NOT BE OF GREAT MONETARY VALUE - JUST A TRINKET FROM THE HOMELAND!!

**Side note…..I asked “Are we truly heading North from the noted meeting place?”

Mom’s reply- “Well, we can't go west or the mice will drown and we will get our regal gowns wet. So yes - kinda - we will be heading north - north easterly direction. South would take us back toward a destination we have already been AND this will be Different”

here we go............

• last week's game was a soggy game and a loss :-(  however, Jake did start as center and played quite a bit and Uncle Tim and Aunt Barb came down to visit Gma Meek and they brought Gpa with them.  an, all made it to the very, very wet football game.
• work for me is just plain crazy!!  They are making all kinds of changes.  Luckily, I am in on the changes but not being removed from the equation.
• my foot...ugh....back in the walking air cast.  Back to the dr on the 13th.  Sure was hoping that it would just heal and be a simple fix.  I do not have time in my crazy life to be slowed down - nor the $$ to be off again.
• did my first mammogram...oh how I love Passages....all digital and it was a breeze.  They called me the same afternoon to tell me that everything looks great!!  
• worked for 3.5 hrs this morning...came home...picked veggies from the garden....made 2 loaves of zucchini bread, a blueberry pie, cooked some black beans for dinner.....steak and black bean burritos.
• tomorrow...taking Jake to the mall to get a few back to school shirts and making salsa maybe
• Monday...Steve has to work all day..I have to go in for a couple of hours to do payroll.
• Tuesday....back to school....1/2 day
