Belated Weekend Recap

Hola peeps and happy Tuesday.  Anyone else get engulfed by the wildfire smoke over the weekend?  Three days straight for us with lots of air quality alerts.  I hope my Canadian friends are doing okay. It was a bit of a lazy weekend to start until it wasn't.  (Thanks to me, I'm sure the Mr is mumbling under his breath.). I have been throwing myself into projects this month to keep myself from spiraling over Mom's birthday this week.  Not to mention constantly fighting every aspect of gardening and I swear I typed that sentence before that last time I tried in 2020.  I have fungus gnats in the elevated planters because of all of the damn rain we've been getting and the soil can't dry out for them to die off.  So I got some mosquito dunks that can be cut into 1/8's and put into a gallon of water overnight and then water the area to kill the larvae then dry the soil to kill the adults.  This is apparently common with organic gardening but frustrating...

  2. Those were pretty interesting. Maybe I should've read the snow shoveling one last week. One day it took me two and a half hours to dig out. Boo.

    On the other hand, 2.5 hours x 279 calories per 30 minutes (based on my age/weight/height) = SCORE!

    Next time I hit the squat machine thing at Curves I'll definitely be more aware of my form too. The author it right, it's far too easy to get sloppy.
