What I'm Reading This Week #37

Good mid(ish)- September Friday to you.  I hope your week felt short and your flop sweat was minimal.  We never seem to be rewarded with two cool weeks in a row so it was back to poopie temps and we'll be tipping 90 this weekend which I am none too pleased about.  Once you throw me two 70's days in a row, it's time to retire the summer temps.  Dems da rules. I got a few things done this week like steaming the curtains which made them drop about 1/2" but thankfully not drag the floor.  I finally got the dead flat I ordered from some chick on Etsy after she sent me the wrong thing initially and it took two weeks to get the right thing.  I don't know about you but if I sent someone the wrong thing initially and made them have to drive to the post office to return my mistake, I'd be refunding some money or expediting their shipping on the right box.  So I've got my two coats on the newel post after doing a little touch up on a spot I didn't see originally....

Low key start to the week

Happy Birthday first guy who broke my heart.  Why are there dates that I just can't eject from my brain?  Not needed thank you.

Yesterday was a pretty low key day.  I think it was much needed after a weekend on the water.  I had good intentions of getting the board and yak all washed down with soapy water but the cleaner I used overwhelmed me and I had to stop after getting one side of each done.  I tried all day to wash that stuff off of my hand and it would not come off.  Finally the only thing that did it was some peppermint scrub I had.  Thank the Lord because that stuff was ridiculous!

I perused Fitness Blender to pick out our form of strength torture for the night.  It was a shoulders and lats combo that I didn't particularly care for.  The last exercise was awkward and I burned half of what the top listed amount was and I'm always in line with that so I don't know what the deal was.  I think if I would've went heavier that I would've injured myself so I probably won't throw that one into rotation for a while.

Dinner was the whole wheat/zucchini hybrid spaghetti with chicken for extra protein.


I got sucked into an episode of Cake Wars when they mentioned it would be Hello Kitty themed.  Pretty interesting cakes and of course I can never seem to predict the winners of these things.

I needed to unwind mentally so I threw on KCSM in San Francisco and listened to the Jazz Oasis and brewed a cup of our Charleston tea.

I told you it was a boring day.  They can't all be adventures!

It's supposed to be 90 today.  Less than 60 days til Fall.

How do you get stinky chemical stuff off of your hands?

  1. Low key was fine with me. It was good to have a slow day. It was fairly slow at work as well and I am not complaining. It's good to have some down time certain days.

    1. Heck yeah. We need to get back into the jazz habit at night. That was a nice relaxing evening and perfect way to unwind and not have the laptops all up in our biz minutes before trying to go to bed.

  3. I've had a couple pretty low key days here too. In fact a little too low key. I've got to get my butt in gear and finish up my summer projects. The summer is coming too quickly to an end. I had a headache that lasted from Sunday morning all through until I took a nap today and I finally feel better. Now I just feel behind because everything I was going to do still isn't done.
