What I'm Reading This Week #24
Sup y'all! Welcome to flop sweat season (and Friday!) I hope you had a good week and stayed cool. I had to wave the flag and pull all of the 'impatiens' I grew from seed as that is not the plant I apparently bought. I'm still going round with the people I got them from because dammit, I want a refund. So I had to go to the nursery and get regular impatiens to replace the ones I pulled. It's already nicer to see actual color instead of looking out everyday and wonder WTF they're going to turn into other than some rando plant with a thick, juicy stem. Not that the ones I got look a ton better as they too are leggy. I don't know what the deal is with that. I also grabbed some chives half off to plant with the zinnias to keep the aphids at bay. Who knows if it'll actually work or not, we'll see. Now let's see: 9 Foot Exercises to Try at Home (I've been doing these over the last week and oochie owie for my weak azz feet...
Today, not much because I work overnights and am at the end of my shifts. Tomorrow: church, breakfast, movies, shopping, psychic reading. :D
ReplyDeleteYay on the weight loss and I'm glad you will have the muscular strength to endure the outlet malls! I have an unscheduled weekend again (two in a row!) and I will spend some of that time doing the busy-work things I was supposed to do last weekend! (The weather isn't as nice this weekend so this should be easier.)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the day!!
Wedding today after work this morning. work tomorrow. someday I will get a real day off. I am sure of it.
ReplyDeleteTaking the little guy to "airport fun day". Fun for him I'm sure, for me? umm....
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on another pound down! I can't begin to tell you how proud I am of in you so many ways! Enjoy your outlet mall shopping (a Torrid just opened up here where the Avenue used to be...no more Avenue in these parts-sigh). I'm getting ready to take the dogs out to the dog park with the hubs before doing the remaining shopping for his birthday and our anniversary next week. It's a chilly day with high winds and 50+ degrees, but I'll take that any time over the 80's and 90's! Toodles Noodles!
ReplyDeleteNice going on the lost pound, but I think I found it. After what I felt like was a pretty good week--I'm up 3 pounds from last weekend! What??? No Aunt Flo in my life anymore so what is the problem?
ReplyDeleteGoing to be doing some cheering today for my Nebraska Husker FB and VB teams. Go Big Red!!
Yay for you down a pound. I think I need a new scale. A digital one. I want exact numbers, not just real close. Although, I feel like I may have given up on my weight loss for a while. Reading your blog and about your success gives me motivation though. Weekend plans: last BBQ of the season!
ReplyDeleteI love getting into a new set of 10's. I call them "decades". :)
ReplyDeleteThose storybook cutting boards you posted on Friday are absolutely wonderful, but I can't get over the price! I can't even justify putting them on my Christmas list. Maybe... someday... when we're rich.
I like that!
DeleteAren't they adorable!? For $78, I will have to win the lottery or have an unknown rich uncle drop dead and leave me money to buy them because Lord knows they never have sales on stuff like that!
Congrats on the pound, fantastic!
ReplyDeleteOmg, I am with you! 100%. I've been 5+/- from the weight I was at in the beginning of the summer. Ohmygoodness, it is so depressing! But, I think I may have kicked myself back into gear. I'll try to make this week one that's worth all the effort I've put into this journey. I've been going about a year and am at 92lbs already off. Holy COW! It's great to see how far I've come but, I know that there's still more to go. I want you to know that you are a true inspiration and... thank you! Really, I mean it. Let's work towards that 2-lb loss this week. We got this!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the loss--woo hoo! I hope you'll get the 2 pounds you're hoping for next week. :)
