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.

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.
