What I'm Reading This Week #25

Hello and happy Friday from the land of the scorching sun.  We are in for absolute Hades conditions the next few days, right on cue for the summer solstice.  You know I'm not happy about that. 😒 Thankfully, my other 50% shade cloth just arrived and is airing out so they can go on in the afternoons.  I have stuff in the big planters that are not fans of scorching heat so I need to be as on it as possible if I don't want it to go to poop for other reasons to add to the current reasons.  (Rain, pests, etc) I'm tryin' y'all!  I just got my little lint rollers to roll aphids/larvae off instead of wasting shipping tape.  I swear to you I have not seen ONE BEE since everything went in.  There was this chubby bumble bee that would hang out when our lilac was in bloom and just zone out levitating so I thought for sure she would be here for it all.  Nope.  The second it bloomed, it was gone.  I haven't seen honeybees at all.  I've checked ...

What I'm Reading This Week #38

Psst.

Guess what.

It's FRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!

Now that I've blinded you with my excitement for the weekend, let's do si do on into...


50 Daily Habits of Naturally Thin People  (I'm taking a cue from a few of these...need to do more.)

If You've Ever Cried About Losing Weight, You Need to Read This Post  (Whose crying?  I'm not crying.  *sniff*)

This Is How Much Cardio You Should Be Doing If You Want to Lose Weight  (Does clean eating include apple donuts?  I'm asking for a friend.)

The Fascinating Link Between Walnuts and Weight Loss  (I don't know about fascinating but a link nonetheless.)

Are You Taking Probiotics the Wrong Way? A Dietitian Weighs In  (I will say this, I took it according to this article and (TMI alert) I thought about Facetiming a doctor after my void to ask if the volume should scare me.)

Can You Really Lose Fat and Gain Muscle Simultaneously?  (Always kind of makes me giggle when someone is nice enough to try to say my scale gain was probably muscle.  I'm benching 50, not 250.)

The 9 Most Toxic Items In Your Kitchen  (I think some are a little over the top but still enough to consider.)

The Negative Effect Binge Watching Has on Your Health  (Pay attention Netflixers!)

Research Shows Eliminating Meat From Your Diet Can Help You Lose Weight Twice as Fast  (Oy, I'm not giving up my cluckers and oinks on occasion but I can throw a few extra meatless meals in there)

Pink's Empowering Message to Her Daughter Is One Everyone Needs to Hear  (So sad she even had to say it in the first place.)

What a Foo Believes: The Sweet Life and Rock & Roll Faith of America's Biggest Band  (Excellent article with Dave Grohl.  Could I love him even more?  Their new album Concrete and Gold  (affiliate link) just dropped last week.  I listened to some samples and it sounds solid.  Mr...download it.)

It’s Electric! Dave Grohl meets Lars Ulrich on Beats 1 [Full Interview] (Apparently yes, I can love him more!  GREAT interview even if you think Lars is a gum flapper...he actually lets Dave talk. NSFW for language)


We were supposed to go apple picking tonight but the gross hot temps have turned us off to that.  So much for the first day of autumn.  Pffft.  We're going next Friday when it's supposed to be much cooler.  In the meantime, I've got to grab a wedding gift for a friend getting married next weekend. Since our own, we've only been to two other weddings.  Are people just not getting married anymore or are we just not invited?  LOL

What are you guys up to this weekend?

  3. Tomorrow the hubs has to work so I am going grocery shopping really early and then will come home and cut the lawn since it's the first time it's needed it in three weeks. I will get one load of laundry done tomorrow as well and then I will be chilling out to watch football and recover (90 minutes of lawn cutting will just about do me in for the day after grocery shopping). We may go out for the hub's birthday for lunch on Sunday if he wants to. I have a baby card to buy and a sympathy card --it's so odd these two things happened at the same time -- one beginning and one ending...sigh, and need to wrap a baby gift.

    Have a super duper weekend and try to stay cool! xo
