What I'm Reading This Week #29

Happy Friday all!  Finally the weekend...woo hooooooooooooo!!!

Someone please stop me from watching Property Brothers.  They've been playing them non stop and it's been the soundtrack of my life this week.  Today I'm doing some baking/filming of Christmas recipes then trying to find people to dump it all off on this weekend.  We've got some friends closing their business soon and we're going to go visit one last time.  We don't have too much else planned that I know of because it's supposed to be swamp ass hot.  I did see where the Mr replaced the hall lights that the ceiling is showing more and is of course discolored.  *facepalm...adds to list*

What are you getting into this weekend?
