What to do...

It's gorgeous here in the Triangle and other than wishing it was 5pm already my only problem is that there is WAY too much to do this weekend!!!  Usually there is always stuff going on but rarely so much that I actually care to go... here are my options:
THIS WEEKEND


I should say that there are two other pretty big events this weekend, but due to personal experience I decided we would skip these...

  • Triangle Beach Music Festival
We went to this event last year - it was insane!  INSANE I tell you!  It's basically thousands of twenty-something year olds half naked getting drunk.  Now, I do partake in alcoholic beverages but there is a difference between being stupid and having fun.  On more than one occasion throughout the day I saw people fight, pass out, and get arrested.  One of the biggest disappointments is that each Beach Music band would only play 3-4 songs and then they would blare rap music for the next 45 minutes or so before the next band came on... I understand they have to switch out equipment but at an event such as this one would think that one side of the stage would be where the first band would be and the other side the next band would be sitting up?  I guess I'm just genius, lol.  The worst part is that it is a one lane road getting out of the farm and they had a checkpoint getting out, luckily we were responsible and arranged for a friend to pick us up, only he couldn't get in to pick us up!  We waited there over three hours after the event was over before our ride could get in!  Shew.  
  • Southern Women's Show
I work four home shows a year - the last thing I want to go is go pay to be harassed when walking through a show.  Sorry - I'm sure there is some cute stuff and great ideas.  (I'm allowed to hate them right?)


Now... let me tell you the things we need to do this weekend... (I know I have gotten myself into trouble before by making a list for the weekend - you know sitting yourself up for failure)
  • Remember I started removing wallpaper in the master bathroom?  Yeah.... it's still not all the way done yet
  • Pick up extra paint from Revival
  • Purchase cabinet/drawer liners for the new furniture and put that storage to use!
  • Yard work (mow, weed eat, clean up the pot that the squirrel knocked over, repaint mailbox post)
  • Make it to the gym so I don't gain weight over the weekend, lol
  • Work on reorganizing the third bedroom so Meme (my grandmother) doesn't have a heart attack when she comes to stay next week
  • Oh... since I mentioned Meme coming... I need to deep clean the entire house... she will notice a dog hair on the floor for crying out loud! 


Wish me us luck!  Don't worry, we still plan to enjoy ourselves!  We have a nice relaxing night planned with friends tonight...complete with Indian take out!  I'm sure I'll have one a few of these...
