So this week at work has been a fun and crazy mess in preparation for my department's move up to the 8th Floor. I am scheduled to be moved at 9 am tomorrow morning, so I packed up the last of my things today. When I come in tomorrow I'll be going to the new office and getting everything situated!
I haven't posted since my trip to Omaha. It was a great success! BF finally got to meet my family. I think he made a really good impression as I've heard nothing but raves from various relatives since getting back home. He may not be the over the top charmer of my past guys, but he is much more real and he did such a good job getting to know the various relatives. My mom loved him and was so glad to finally meet him, and I definitely feel like a puzzle piece that was missing is in place now. :-)
I enjoyed getting to show him the city where I was born and raised, and pointing out my schools and various other locations of interest as we moved around the city. The family reunion weekend entailed a lot of eating, as well as the fabulous Henry Doorly Zoo. We spent some lower key time with my brother and his wife, and it was all just really lovely!
I'm very much looking forward to the long holiday weekend. We don't have a ton of definite plans, though we do intend to get to a Washington Nationals game on Saturday with my friend, A. BF hasn't been to a Nats game before (!!!) and so I'm excited to share that experience with him. We're hoping to get my Firm's tickets as they are awesome (and free!), but we're going either way. Weather is currently predicted to be pretty nice, seventies and sunny! Beyond that I predict erranding, maybe a movie, and definitely some grilling!
J isn't coming this weekend. She's got negative interest in sports and this would have been her half weekend, anyway. We'll miss her, but we'll get her the full weekend the following weekend! I admit to selfishly looking forward to a full long weekend at home with BF, just the two of us. :-) I just love that extra time, with nice weather, and nothing to do but whatever we want!
Tonight I'm considering running some solo errands to a) avoid Memorial Day weekend crowds and b) enjoy my own leisurely pace of shopping without feeling like I'm dragging BF along with me. :-D I need to re-up on super exciting things like a nude-colored bra and also new underwear. I'm also on the hunt for some workout shorts that are fitted, but not insanely short or obscenely tight. In other words...a unicorn! I also feel like some Target wandering time would not be out of the question! We'll see how motivated I feel once I wrap up this work day and get my commute knocked out, though.
I hope everyone is having a really lovely week! Anyone have any fun weekend plans on tap?

What a relief that the family visit went so well! After reading so much about BF though, I'm not surprised everyone loved him. I'm with J on the negative interest in sports, haha.
ReplyDeleteYes, it was definitely a relief. :-) Just felt like a big build up because we were together for so long before they finally met!
DeleteBF is definitely a HUGE sports nut. I'm a huge football fan, and I like baseball in person, but he will watch all of the sports LOL.
I'm so glad the family visit went well, it's a nerve-wracking thing! Sounds like a great trip!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It was a bit nerve-inducing, but I'm so glad we finally got to do that!
DeleteSo glad the family visit went well. I am sure your family was thrilled to meet him!
ReplyDeleteAnd yayee for a Nats game! They will always have a special place in my heart :)
Thank you! They really were happy to finally meet him.
DeleteI have no doubt that Nats games will always be special to you now! :-) Congrats again!
Thank you! And PS - I can't respond to your comments when you leave them on my blog! Your address is no reply blogger, but I always want to! Maybe I will just start leaving my responses on your blog :)
DeleteGlad the family meeting went well! I'm in the same boat next weekend and slightly terrified :) Old Navy has some workout top styles that I like - they're loose in the middle but fitted at the bottom, so they breathe but won't ride up if you're stretching or doing other seated activities.
