It's the Saturday of Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples Day weekend!
I feel super productive today and I'm hoping to #getshitdone. My cousin is lending me her paper cutter so I'm hoping to get my table numbers done and my invites trimmed.
Tomorrow is my "surprise" shower! I do have to say, FI is a TERRIBLE secret keeper and he's done such a good job of keeping everything a surprise. <3
Oh, now that I have my mom's netflix password, we just opened up a new world of entertainment lol. We already have like 20 series on our Watch List lol.
What's up for your Weekend? Do you get an extra day off?

My company stopped giving us Columbus day off a few years ago because it's a working day for the majority of our clients. I'm not bitter or anything.
I have a bunch of things I want to get done today... But Netflix and the couch are soooo inviting.

I don't get Columbus Day, either, but I'm planning to WFH Monday to work on my tenure paperwork and wrapping up my article. H is working this morning, but later, we're having a strategy meeting for re-launching his website. The goal is the first of the year.

So far today: clean out a cooler, tidy kitchen and wedding stuff, put on a marinara sauce, cut the matting for table numbers and made a mock invite!

We don't have Monday off, but I'm okay with it as I don't think Columbus was the sort of person who should be celebrated.
My organization is participating in a giant hurricane relief fundraiser on campus Monday morning and I also have a midterm for my Roman Empire class that afternoon so I will be busy preparing and studying when I'm not at work this weekend.

I ended up being fairly productive today. I did laundry and groceries, configured a remote for my garage door opener, went to Home Depot, mowed the lawn, made arrangements to return XH's tools, and I have a blackberry cobbler with lemon and thyme in the oven.

I'm feeling well enough to look in my box of craft supplies! This matters because I can't focus on crafts most of the time.

I just got an email that the money I requested from the university for a Halloween Party (and historical costume contest) that my honor society is hosting was approved! It's almost $500 so we can have an awesome party with that money.
