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.  Oh then yesterday, I went out to water after a super hot day and brought the tape out in case I saw nasties on the leaves.  Well, I'll sp...

What I'm Reading This Week #2

It's finally Friday!  Woo hoo!

I think we're supposed to get some snow this weekend after having had crappy rain to wash away any Christmas base that formed.  I'm really hoping to get enough to snowshoe but that never seems to happen anymore.  Might have to head north.  (Nervous laughter from the Mr as he proofreads that.)

Let's blaze a trail with...


How to Find Your Motivation   (Yike!  So much for the "21 days to make a habit" adage!)

6 Best Everyday Foods That Can Help Lower Your Blood Pressure Naturally  (Sorry beets, it ain't happenin')

Here's What a Doctor Has to Say About All That Protein You're Eating  (If you're over 160 lbs, use this link under where it says 'how to calculate your protein needs.')

10-Minute Vegan Dinners to Sneak In More Plants This Year  (Meatless Mondays...or Thursday.  Whatever.)

7 Clever Tricks to Make Your New Year's Resolution Stick  (Word.)

7 Weight-Loss Secrets Doctors Tell Their Friends  (Good reminders)

40 Weight Loss 'Secrets' That Don’t Work  (In case you need more info to make coming up with a plan that works for you a little more maddening.)

6 Mood-Boosting Foods to Help Soothe SAD This Winter  (For those who suffer)

40 Ways Your Body Changes After 40  (Well, this is depressing.  Hello wrinkles and baggy cooter)

Is It OK to Use the Pill to Skip a Period?  (Sure is and I wish I'd known that before planning my wedding two years out around my period.  Boy, the gynie got a laugh out of that one when I told her!)

I Smiled at Total Strangers For a Month, and It Drastically Improved My Mood  (Definitely worth a try.  Imagine how nice the world could be to each other!)

Not a whole lot planned until we wake up and see if the weatherman was right or not.  It seems with all of the technology we have these days, they can't seem to predict weather within 2-3 hours.  So I'm hoping to return Monday with pics of us dashing through the snow.

What do you have planned for the weekend?

  2. Boy, is it blustery here today! Brrrr!!! Tomorrow I lead a meeting, then head out to the burbs to see a friend who's in town from NC. Sunday will be grocery shopping and laundry and getting rid of one box or bag (my goal is to do this every week so by the end of the year I'll have gotten rid of 52 bags or boxes of stuff I just don't need). And somewhere during the weekend I need to find the time to gather up all my health care stuff for taxes and do some calculations. I dread that but I need to do it.

    Have a super weekend and hopefully a snowy one for you!!
