Friday Five

Happy Friday! We’ve got a big weekend coming up and I’m so freakin’ excited. Today is a half day at work for me because I’m taking the afternoon off to take Barley for her post-op check up and when I get home I’m hoping to get in a killer nap.

1 – Tonight we’re going to see Brothers Osborne at a local bar and while I’m excited, I’m also not super looking forward to being out so late. I usually go to bed around 9 (8:15 last night) and this concert doesn’t even start until 11 so I’ll be that old grumpy person surrounded by youths wondering how in the world I ever stayed up to party in college.

2 – We find out today whether Barley gets her cone off! Her incision is still healing so I’m not sure but I really hope it can come off. She’s gotten so much better with it but now she likes to use it as a battering ram so our legs and knees currently live in fear. She hasn’t let us put a diaper on her since Monday and I think she’s just kind of over the whole situation.

3 – I really need to get back into running but I haven’t felt motivated at all. I’ve only gone on a couple of runs since the half we ran in September and I know the longer I wait the worse the first several runs will be but I just haven’t wanted to. I think I need to find a race to sign up for so I have something to work toward. I just got an email about registration for the Disney Food and Wine race weekend but I don’t know that I want to spend that much on a race.

4 – We got a pretty decent snow last weekend. We measured 7 inches in our yard which is a lot for this area. It was really pretty but we ended up having to sell our tickets to see Old Dominion because we didn’t want to risk driving once the roads refroze that night. The snow stuck around until Wednesday morning when we got a warm rain that helped the melting along. Oh and hey, it’s supposed to be 75 today #welcometothesouth

5 – We’re starting our bedroom project this weekend! I’m planning on doing a whole post on the overall plan this weekend or next week so be on the lookout for that. I’m hoping we can get demo and all the patch work done tomorrow so we can paint on Sunday. There are still a few things to figure out and we’ve added a couple of things to the original plan but I’m excited for it to all come together! Hopefully it looks as nice in real life as it does in my head.
