Midweek Check In
Happy Hump Day to you and yours! Anyone else having a case of the "short week feels longer than a regular week" yet or does that hit tomorrow? Unfortunately, Monday afternoon the tweens/teens found the pool not too far from the abode so we got to listen to the hootings of young, insecure males attempting to show off for both girls and their fellow brethren. I'm really hoping this is just some cousins visiting or something for the weekend because I know of only one teen boy here and he's a loner. Is pool season over yet? It always starts strong like this and then typically dies down within a month but what an irritating month it is until then. We did some more work out on the patio Monday. It was going to be the last sunny day before two days of forecasted rain...again. I made sure to get the new picket painted and hung to cover this delightful sight: When the picket was off, I could see how bad the support 2x4's looked on the fence. ...

I had a great time paddling with you. It was a little choppy and windy at times but overall a great workout and I'll take what we can get this late in the season. I never thought we'd be at the point where we're listening to Christmas music on the radio on our way to a paddle.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice that you were able to get out and paddle yesterday. I know the season is soon over so every outing counts.
ReplyDeleteIt's stuffing to me too, even if it never goes near the bird. I hear people say dressing and there is always a mental lag time for me to catch up to what they mean.
I've got no advice to offer on skin care, sorry. A dermatologist would shake their head and sigh (or lecture me) - soap and water followed by sunscreen lotion. I should probably do more, but I don't know where to start.
What are you trying to achieve with the skin care? Moisturization? Protection??
ReplyDeleteGot those covered. Looking to reduce forehead wrinkles. I want to stop them going from cracks to crevices.
DeleteI'm 58 yrs old. I find that a good washing / moisturizing routine, morning and night, does very well with the wrinkles. Sorry....can't recommend any Retinol-type products.
ReplyDeleteStuffing all the way. And it has to go in the bird. I don't even eat it but if thanksgiving is prepared by me, it's in the bird (extra can be made sans bird cavity). My family has done it that way for generations and never had an illness outbreak as a result, so we know what we're doing and can handle the challenge of properly cooking true "from the butt" stuffing.
ReplyDeleteI'm all about "stuffing". I never actually understood the term dressing when I was a kid because to me dressing is for the outside of the bird, not the inside. Just like the term "bed clothes" -- oddest term I've read and actually had to look it up! I thought it was a specific blanket or something! LOL Out of all the different foods for Thanksgiving, the stuffing has always been my favorite and it's the one thing I go for with leftovers first. There's something about the onions and celery that I just love.
