What I'm Reading This Week #23
Hello there! We made it to Friday. Halleluyer! Did anyone else get that collection of butt hot days earlier in the week? No thanks. Oh yeah, you know what's fun? When you're watering your plants and you're wondering why mushrooms are starting to grow in planters and you check the bottom and realize the reason you got a great deal is because there are no drainage holes. 😤 So I had to tip the planters and drill one big one not only in the 4 smaller ones, which was hard enough but also the two big 16" ones holding the clematises. Nothing like drowning your plants for 3 weeks. I mean for real, who sells those? I've never in my life bought planters that didn't have drainage holes. So there's a tip for you to make sure you check your planter bottoms before planting anything.

Those birds were about to pop out some little birdies from the looks of it (hard to tell in the pic, but I saw them up close). It is weird seeing the living room without the tree now, funny how quickly you can get used to having it there.

It's a good thing I have the rubber booties for the dogs because that sloppy mud is the main reason I bought them, even more than the snow.
The hubs had a bad scare Monday morning going to work with his coworker where they hit black ice on the interstate and went across all lanes of traffic and would have ended up in oncoming traffic if they hadn't hit the ditch first. He said he's not sure how they didn't flip over but they didn't -- thank God! Needless to say they got off the interstate where they could see a bunch of more accidents up ahead of them and took the lesser traveled roads to get to work. He said it was very quiet in the car after that. Eek.
