What I'm Reading This Week #34
Hello you sassy beast! Ready for another flip flappin' fantastic weekend? Yes indeedy, Ally Sheedy. It's been a week of working ahead for me as I try to work on ideas for holiday posts. I know, no one is ready for Christmas but spit balling stuff is actually getting me excited for the season. I like to try to give myself the month of December off from writing new posts (except updating weekly happenings) so all I have to do is respond if needed. It lets me take a little mental break during the holidays to try to enjoy what I can then hop back into the new year hopefully rested and ready to roll. We did book our 30th anniversary trip, which is the same one we had to cancel this year and of course got travel insurance. It's just nice to have something to hopefully look forward to and it makes you go "where the heck did 4 1/2 years go?" because it seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 25th. Do people even celebrate their 30t...
Yeah, wow, had no idea spa's cost so much. I figured 5-7K max. And they say those are made to last a lifetime yet nearly every hot tub we've ever used on vacation at any given rental home has had problems of some kind so we know that isn't true. Was a good weekend overall but short as always.
ReplyDeleteHoly cow that's expensive. I would have guessed around the same as the Mr. I wonder if the ones without all the bells and whistles are much cheaper? They do have inflatable ones (like the pools) for much less but I can't speak to the quality. I only know that because a friend got one a couple years ago for under $1000. No idea if it's still around and kicking though.
ReplyDeleteNot a lot here this weekend. Lego Club at the library Saturday and the indoor pool on Sunday. Plus all the usual weekend chores. At some point, when I wasn't looking, I got old and boring.
That pooch is so stinking cute!! As for the hot tub, that's what I want to live in at some point. Just put a little roof over me and I'd be all set. lol Glad you got your kinks worked out with the massage therapist and she helped you to feel better!
ReplyDeleteKodiak. I use the high protein box. I add egg whites and scoop of protein powder to further help the macros. Mine rises just fine. It might be the egg whites. I reduce the amount of water to compensate for egg whites. I cook in waffle maker.
ReplyDeleteNo they are not the same as the higher carb/sugar brands. (But I cannot eat something that high in carbs with almost no protein. I would spend the rest of the day trying to catch up my protein.) But husband and I like them on occassion. He eats with blue berries and honey and nuts. I eat with bit of lite butter. To us they are the right amount of good. I actually like that they are not "too" good, do not leave me wanting to finish the box. And very filling.
