Probably the usual. Cook out, maybe swim if the pool and the weather are warm enough.

I'm so jealous! It finally got up to 46 degrees (Fahrenheit) here!!! Ugh! It's supposed to be 70s... the beaches open this weekend... Who wants to go to the beach when it is in the 40s? And it's windy! wind advisories are up. High surf. Coastal flooding. Ugh.

So, Friday I get to go into downtown Boston for a job interview. Wish me luck--I need the job. But it also means that I'll have a 4-hour trip back (should take 1.5 hours) because I'll be in holiday traffic!!! And I've got company coming to my house! Sigh... They will be here before me, I think.

Our forecast is for more wind/rain/cold so I'm not at all sure what we will do this weekend. Rent videos?

Timeshare, beachfront Ocean City...can't go too far away - I've got "Nextel duty." Back in the office Wednesday - I really need the break. My 4-year-old daughter is pointing out that some of my hair is turning grey @ 29!!

Got airline tickets from JAX to BWI and a second unit for my parents...since my dad's a veteran. Seems like the thing to do in this day and age.

Well, it hasn't rained in a million years but it's supposed to rain this weekend. If it doesn't, I'll be going to a Memorial Day picnic-type thing on Sunday, playing volleyball and softball and eating lots of good food! We always honor our veterans as well.

Monday, I'll be grilling and hanging out at the pool with friends and family.

We will probaly grill some hamburgers or chicken . Being at the beach is out of the question for us due to my husband's burns. The new skin has grown in but is still very tender and will burn very easily from UV rays without protection. So we may drive up to VA and see our son and new grandson in a few weeks.

Our neighborhood street will have a meet, greet, and eat block party here in our new townhouses area on Sunday afternoon! :D

Will probably catch some military movies on AMC, etc., too in honor of Memorial Day weekend. :flag:

Going to Atlantic City to shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Gamble and, like Alice, I'll drink a little Gin and maybe just a touch of Chardonnay. I don't gamble so it should take most of the weekend to figure out the games!!!

Um......Holiday weekend? Must be a soccer tournament. Will be watching 6 games on Saturday and 6 games on Sunday. Wind, rain, cold.....doesn't matter, only lightning will get us out of this! I don't mind really, the kids love it so much.

I am sooooo jealous of those of you whose weather really corresponds to the start of summer holiday! Finding it hard to believe we are actually going to have a summer this year.
