What I'm Reading This Week #27
Happy Friday everyone! I hope you've got the day off to enjoy. I would really appreciate the weather dialing it back from Satan's taint to dryish heat please. I'm not even asking for much. Like 83 degrees would make me happy at this point but there's no end in sight to the 90's. The Mr and I have both been plagued with migraines this week. He had a two day event and I had an ocular migraine which is just so crappy to deal with since you can't read or do anything until your vision isn't screwed up. I got to wait on hold for an hour Tuesday with the state tax department so I decided to sand and prime the newel post while listening to hold music designed to make you hang up. To quote Bugs Bunny "he don't know me vewy well, do he?" I got that squared away and later went out between pop up storms to deadhead some zinnias which you may have seen in Wednesday's post. Speaking of Wednesday, it was a busy day in the ga...
Some good reading material there. Can't wait to check 'em out! I cannot imagine what Memphis is like during Elvis week. Talk about a crowd! It might be cool to go though as long as we can find a place to park.
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited that you're giving yoga a real try. I know that sounds goofy, but yoga turned out to The One when it comes to exercise (for me). It's the one thing I've stuck with the longest and can really see myself doing even when I'm a shriveled old woman (it will keep me limber so I can chase youths from my porch). It's also been so good for me mentally. No joking, I'm more even tempered and just nicer to be around (and be) than before I got into yoga.
ReplyDeleteYOGA FOR EVERYONE!!!
I have to exercise on a fairly empty stomach. If I try after a meal I just feel sick. Regardless of the time of day, or the research, or the fat burning quality - I'm not going to do something that will leave me feeling ill.
ReplyDeleteI don't use my phone as much as some people, but I certainly do feel off if I forget it. I told hubby the other day that before cell phones we (each of us) could make independent decisions, and neither of us can manage that anymore. A simply shopping trip almost always includes a text or call.
Some of those weight loss products actually look pretty good, whereas some are just plain weird.
The local pool has a dog shelter fund raiser this weekend. The Dog Daze of Summer at the local pool. It's closed to people for the season, so they let people bring their dogs to swim for a donation to the shelter. I may take one of my dogs, but I'm not sure. Then tomorrow afternoon we're off to the county fair. Little boy is going to be so excited.
I need to go to our local farmer's market more often. I'll now put that on my to-do list this weekend! Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteDu mentioned the Iowa State Fair. We need to go visit his dad who lives within an hour of Des Moines, so it would kill two birds with one stone. I've never been to this State Fair of all State Fairs---might be fun. Fried Butter? Hmmm....
ReplyDeleteI opened your post in my email and this is what I read, it made me giggle cause I know its not what you meant but if you did it would be so you...
ReplyDelete"Friday is here baby! Anyone else excited?
It's time to check out"
Yes, it is!
I had to laugh about the electronics comment. I have a cell phone, but I refuse to set up voicemail (no point) and people are insane about that. I've never texted in my life and actually have that option shut off on my phone. I don't do social media at all, and that's another reason I'm not in with the "in crowd". Meh, I'm ok with that. =o)
