What I'm Reading This Week #23

Hello there!  We made it to Friday.  Halleluyer!  Did anyone else get that collection of butt hot days earlier in the week?  No thanks.  Oh yeah, you know what's fun?  When you're watering your plants and you're wondering why mushrooms are starting to grow in planters and you check the bottom and realize the reason you got a great deal is because there are no drainage holes.  😤  So I had to tip the planters and drill one big one not only in the 4 smaller ones, which was hard enough but also the two big 16" ones holding the clematises.  Nothing like drowning your plants for 3 weeks.  I mean for real, who sells those?  I've never in my life bought planters that didn't have drainage holes.  So there's a tip for you to make sure you check your planter bottoms before planting anything.  Oh then yesterday, I went out to water after a super hot day and brought the tape out in case I saw nasties on the leaves.  Well, I'll sp...

Productive Monday

It was a productive Monday for me.  I started working on some Christmas projects.  



Yeah, you read that right.  I have vowed that December is going to be as stress free as possible so I'm getting a jump on stuff and checking them off of my mental to do list.  My goal is to only have to blog the link posts every Friday.  Fingers crossed, I hope you guys like the projects!  Honestly, I was surprised I could lift my arms to craft because Sunday night's paddle really put the smack down on both of us.  

My shoulder definitely popped out of joint and short of going Riggs on it, I'll just have to hope it works itself out.  Our workout was an upper body bicep/tricep strength session.  I am back to pre-vacation dumbbell weights so I'm happy about that.  

I wish I'd done some prep earlier in the day but I didn't so I had to do a goodly amount of work for dinner...spinach stuffed shells.


After dinner, the Mr played some video games and we caught up on some taped HGTV shows while I did some work.

I know...mind blowing read, isn't it?  Sorry.  :-\

Oops and then I forgot to hit post last night so it's late to boot!  LOL

    Stuffed spinach shells sound yummy. After the stress of the last two years, I don't blame you for trying to get as much done early as you can. You guys are crazy busy from November on so being ahead enough that you can enjoy the season can only help.

    I love stuffed shells. Yummy! Glad to hear you're working on Christmas projects now because that's going to totally free up your time as you get closer to Christmas. You won't have that stress hanging over you and can truly enjoy your creations. Considering it feels like Memorial Day was just a couple of weeks ago in my mind, Christmas will be here all too soon!
