What I'm Reading This Week #25

Hello and happy Friday from the land of the scorching sun.  We are in for absolute Hades conditions the next few days, right on cue for the summer solstice.  You know I'm not happy about that. 😒 Thankfully, my other 50% shade cloth just arrived and is airing out so they can go on in the afternoons.  I have stuff in the big planters that are not fans of scorching heat so I need to be as on it as possible if I don't want it to go to poop for other reasons to add to the current reasons.  (Rain, pests, etc) I'm tryin' y'all!  I just got my little lint rollers to roll aphids/larvae off instead of wasting shipping tape.  I swear to you I have not seen ONE BEE since everything went in.  There was this chubby bumble bee that would hang out when our lilac was in bloom and just zone out levitating so I thought for sure she would be here for it all.  Nope.  The second it bloomed, it was gone.  I haven't seen honeybees at all.  I've checked ...

What I'm Reading This Week

It's finally Friday!   Yeee hooo!!  This week was a bit too draggy for my taste.

It was quite nice settling in and watching Sleepy Hollow last night.  I had to be very vigilant about not reading any spoiler posts from related websites.  I hate how they give away waaaay too much these days before a season even starts.  I'm hopeful this season will be a good one and if its not, at least I get to stare at Tom Mison for 42 minutes each week.

But enough about my "free pass", let's get to...

This weekend we're doing an early birthday lunch for the Mr with my mom.  We've got plans for his birthday weekend so I figured if we could do it early, it wouldn't get overlooked.  Somehow he seems to get lost in the shuffle some years so I try to make his birthdays exciting.  (He hasn't been in town for his birthday since he turned 39.)

Anything on tap for the weekend?

    Woohoo,hope there's only 1 Dawn in your followers :).
    This weekend should be fun, heading outta state for Hubster's Aunt and Uncle's 60th anniversary bash. It's pretty cool his family keeps me included even though he has been gone over 4 years! Bonus that I have my Mom here with me and can take her along. She is looking very "Maxine" with her post cataract surgery.
    Have an awesome weekend!

    The credit/debit article was interesting. A friend of mine had her checking account cleared out over the summer (everything was returned to her, thank goodness - the bank/insurance made good) and she was told never to use her debit card at a restaurant where they take the card from the table and bring back the receipt. I guess I'll just have to start using cash everywhere, or go back to writing checks, The gas station thing is bothersome too, because sometimes I just don't have time to go inside and wait in line to prepay.

    Have a great weekend.

    Congrats Dawn!

    Happy early birthday to the Mr!! Hope it's an excellent weekend for you guys. Not much on tap this weekend other than cleaning (I've been gone the whole week so my household chores are waaaaay behind), transferring scripts, paying bills, and watching some football. I'm giving my body a break today from exercise because of all that I'm doing at mom's house -- I haven't sweated like that in a long time! My lower back is quite sore and out of the blue my monthly friend came so I've got some serious low back cramps going on. Grrrr.... It's going to be cool this weekend (love it) so I plan on snuggling down with a book at some point too. Have a great weekend!!
