What I'm Reading This Week #35

Howdy do and happy last Friday of August!  I hope you had a good week and if your weather was like ours, it was FINALLY under 93 degrees.  Don't get me wrong, I know sweater weather isn't here but it was nice to not have the AC working overtime (set to 76) starting at 11am every day!   It was nice to not walk out to water the garden and walk into a wall of humidity so I will take what I can get.    Speaking of which: With this 3" San Marzano , I shall be able to make enough sauce to cover 7.3 spaghetti noodles. 😒 Now let's get to: How to Stock Your Pantry for Quick & Easy Meals in Minutes   (Ooh, I need to crockpot some black beans for some sweet potato black bean burritos.)

Oops!

Today's late post is brought to you by the letter


Could be for "D'oh."

Or it could be for DVR and what happens when you get wrapped up in an American Pickers and Buying Hawaii marathon before falling asleep on the couch.

Oops!

The weekend was okay.  We got more snow that wasn't called for but I needed to get out of the house so we made our way to some antique places and picked up some cute stuff.  It was time to get groceries to refuel for the next two weeks.  We tried to go Saturday evening but Trader Joe's is 12 kinds of insane at that time of night so we left and got up early the next morning.  We had it pretty much to ourselves but I wouldn't have minded sleeping in over schlepping to 3 grocery stores over the next 2 hours.

Feeling a bit puffy this morning so I need to drown myself in water.  I think we have a strength session on tap for today as well as back to intense physical therapy since my Achilles is still hurting and both legs feel like crap.  I've been slacking on my balance training and it's showing so that means a full month before I'm back to "normal."  You'd think I'd learn my lesson by now but nope, all of the upkeep on my legs is just ridiculous and I can't slack on a single aspect or I pay for it.  We've got a vacay coming up in the next few months and I don't have time for a relapse of my own making.  *rolling eyes*

Welp, that's about it on my end.  No real excitement to report.

How was your weekend?

    Weekends go by so fast lately. But at least we got out of the house both days for a change which was very nice.

      They certainly do. Thankfully you're taking the next two days off so we get an extra long one!

    Mine was a good weekend with a meeting Saturday morning, then puttering around the house. Took care of bills and emails and allowed myself a lovely nap each afternoon. Did meal planning (crock pot chicken tacos...yum) and grocery shopping yesterday. Was supposed to go out with the girls tonight for dinner, but the 5+ inches of snow we got today put the kibosh on that.

      Puttering is good on the weekends! 5" of snow will do that...oy. We're getting ice right now, just glad the Mr took tomorrow off so he doesn't have to drive in this schtuff.

    My weekend was interesting - in the Chinese curse kind of way. My folks were in town, the little guy woke up at like 1 am Friday throwing up. By Sunday hubby had the same thing. Then Monday we went and looked at cars to replace mine. I seriously hope the bug I had a couple weeks ago paid my karma debt and I don't catch this one too.
