Whatcha up to, ladies?! :wub:
I have been running around like a crazy person today to get ready for my ILs' 50th anniversary party tomorrow + taking care of a bored sick kid.

Last weekend before Thanksgiving means... frantically cleaning the house! :D
Hubby's sister is getting married tomorrow, so we'll be spending most of the day with his family. Sunday should be relatively relaxing . . . a few hours of church and then just a quiet day at home. We're taking the kids to get Dole Whips tonight and then we're having an at-home movie night.
I'm actually looking forward to this weekend. I love when we're not overscheduled.

So far all I've managed to do is spend money like it's going out of fashion - so far this week I've bought a printer for my mum (it's actually her christmas present), antivirus software, headset for a computer, scrapbook album & refills & today I bought clothes - a dress, 2 items of shape wear, 2 pairs of knee high stockings for $90 instead of $210. Looks like Black Friday SSD shopping will be very minimal to make up for the big spend this week.
Anyway the rest of my weekend involves: Cleaning my desk off, 'studying' for my job interview, deciding what to wear & making sure I can find it, getting a hair cut, returning library books & if my mum cleans off her desk I might install her printer, anti virus plus our new modem that's been on my to do list forever (has to be done before Wednesday as I have a skype interview and I don't want my connection dying on me). However, what I really want to do is sort out how i'm going to tackle this scrappy gift
I'm doing a 6x8 semi hybrid pocket page album of probably 20 or so pages for my grandma about my graduation in the next 4 weeks (also known as its a christmas present). I have the album and pocket page protectors (2 packs of these)

So far I know I want to do a 6x8 title page, probably have one of my official portraits, capping photo and a copy of my degree as 6x8 then I have about 35-40 photos from the faculty morning tea, the ceremony, official family photo & more casual outdoor photos after the ceremony and maybe a bit about the dinner we all shared but took no photos of...oops. I am not a fast scrapper so probably have max of about 20 hours of scrappy time over the 4 weeks especially if I end up working next month but have no idea past editing and printing the photos how i'm going to tackle it.

It's Thanksgiving Break for the kids!! YAY!!!!! We all need this break SO bad!
We have a kind of busy weekend... I've just taken the boys to the library/shops, this afternoon we're going to a bingo fundraising thingy, and tomorrow the boys are going to the zoo all day with their Cub Scout pack. Parents can go too so I'm trying to decide whether I should go - I don't really want to (I've been enough times already) but I kind of feel as though I should...

Absolutely NOTHING after the past 5 WEEKENDS of installing hardwood throughout our 3 bedroom 2 bath home! We is tired! So glad is done before Thanksgiving!
Also hunting down a hotel for our going out of town last minute decision for Thanksgiving in one of the most popular places for Black Friday shopping and might I say, it makes me so infuriated that they have hiked up the prices for hotels just for these few days! :cursing: :mad:

I was home doing laundry and housework today. Right now Dan is home with the kids because I went to a wine tasting thing at a friend's (a consultant runs the tasting and takes orders). Tomorrow we'll be home for a playdate then off to the library. We're leaving on Tuesday morning to visit family for Thanksgiving, so we'll also start packing and getting ready.
