What I'm Reading This Week #24
Sup y'all! Welcome to flop sweat season (and Friday!) I hope you had a good week and stayed cool. I had to wave the flag and pull all of the 'impatiens' I grew from seed as that is not the plant I apparently bought. I'm still going round with the people I got them from because dammit, I want a refund. So I had to go to the nursery and get regular impatiens to replace the ones I pulled. It's already nicer to see actual color instead of looking out everyday and wonder WTF they're going to turn into other than some rando plant with a thick, juicy stem. Not that the ones I got look a ton better as they too are leggy. I don't know what the deal is with that. I also grabbed some chives half off to plant with the zinnias to keep the aphids at bay. Who knows if it'll actually work or not, we'll see. Now let's see: 9 Foot Exercises to Try at Home (I've been doing these over the last week and oochie owie for my weak azz feet...
Not too bad of a drive and to be able to leave the country and all that is pretty cool. Now my car is international! I did have a good time and people who are even semi-aware of who Gene Kelly is should definitely check out the show!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you had a fun trip. I wonder about my basement as a tornado shelter too so you're not alone.
ReplyDeleteLast week was spring break. My folks and I took my son to Mesa Verde. We had a good time, saw a lot, learned a lot, and had one really great hike. Unfortunately the ruins themselves are only open for ranger guided tours, and they don't do those year 'round, so we had to look from a distance.
Spring Break was not long enough. Have a good week.
We don't have a basement - my plan is getting into the bathtub in our main bathroom (no windows, middle of the house) and put a mattress over us. That way when the tornado sucks us up, at least we'll have a soft landing??? I love Gene Kelly too! Sounds like you guys had a great weekend. We spent the weekend at the AT&T store with cell phone issues...I hate that you are basically forced to upgrade!
