What I'm Reading This Week #17

Time for Friday which means planning weekend shenanigans should be afoot!  Well, the carpet thing as far as the obscene amount we have left went nowhere.  They gave an excuse which measurement wise makes no sense, swore we weren't charged for it and now we have a friggin' roll left to figure out what the hell to do with it.  Do you know how many times over the past 8 years we have said the phrase "we'll figure it out?"   7,422.   I'M. TIRED. OF. HAVING. TO. FIGURE. IT. OUT!!!!!!  You listening up there, Sir or Madam?  Can we please be done??  The only thing we got was a service call which they were late for to fix the gap which yay but shouldn't have been there in the first place.  Rat bastards.  The worst of it is when you look up the reviews for the place after the fact (because they don't tell you who it is before or you'd never buy through them).  This place gets one star out of like 20 reviews over the years.  Th...

Swamp ass hot and what I'm reading this week

Well, despite it not being summer yet, we have officially gone to swamp ass hot mode.  I hate this time of year.  Nothing but pop up storms so you can't leave your umbrella open or your patio furniture uncovered if you don't have a sunroom like us.  So it's not a season I can particularly enjoy.  
But enough of my weather hatred, let's get to...

Well I'd like to say I have nothing in particular planned for the weekend but since we're having my mom over for dinner for her birthday, the house needs completely overhauled and I ain't doing it alone.  (The Mr shutters with fear as he proofreads that)  So that's how we'll be spending today and tomorrow.

What are y'all into this weekend?

  1. It is getting a bit swamp ass hot out there. I tried taking a walk on my lunch yesterday at work and had to cut my walk in half a bit so I could go to the car and cool off or else it was going to make me look like a completely sweat-drenched ogre.

  2. Since I was down for the count with strep C last weekend, I have to get my butt in gear this weekend to do mom's memory board for her 70th birthday next week. I got a group of her friends (10 total) to do a list of 7 things they like about her, admire her, funny stories, etc. My goal is to have 70 comments total to commemorate this birthday. I think I know which board I want to get from Hobby Lobby and just bought a couple pairs of fun pinking shears from Michael's after work today. So I'll be a busy bee with that while still recovering from this nastiness. Oh yes, and the Stanley Cup Final tomorrow night.
