What I'm Reading This Week #26

Well you made it to Friday!  I don't know where y'all are but unless you were near Glacier National Park that got snow this week, you were probably boiling in your own pudding to quote Charles Dickens.  I do not dig 90 degrees by noon and it feels like everything is frying left and right including us.  Most of the week I had the 50% shade cloths on the veggies to attempt to save as much as I can.  I need to get the next batch of lettuce in the shade planter to see if I can successfully grow there over the summer since it never gets direct sun.  I told the Mr the other day I feel like nothing is in the right place back there.  I have a lot of containers and I don't know if I need to put some of them on a little ledge since the 5 gallon buckets take up so much room or not.  The zinnias being in a long planter on the fence were a mistake but they were only put there because I had so many extras and didn't want to chuck them.  I have a few struggling...

  2. Great articles! The before/after one was quite cool. I heard on the radio this week of another woman who did a before/after and it was the complete opposite of what we'd expect. She used to be a work-out fanatic and was super cut and had to maintain such a strict lifestyle that she hated her life. She finally said screw this and actually gained some wait and stopped obsessing with having this super defined body and she looks amazing- and it so much happier. It was really cool.

    I've already been to the burbs and back this morning to drop off the tax stuff (phew!). Now it's taking the pooches for a drive in the (frigid) sunshine. Have a meeting tomorrow then lunch with a friend of mom's in the burbs. And somewhere along the way I need to get some serious loads of laundry done. Riveting stuff I tell ya. lol
