Halfway Through September Weekend Recap

Howdy-eth Do-eth?  Anyone else in the 90's today and the rest of this week?  🤬  It's like summer is getting out its last wrath or something.  Not to say when the calendar flips to 'official' Fall that it will suddenly drop in temps but I did see low 80's on the horizon even though my body is quite ready for 60's, sweatshirts and fuzzy socks.  But I know at least one or two Indian summers or whatever people younger than me in the PC realm call Satan bursts await in October.  I am happy to say I was able to get into the basement Friday and that pic from Friday's post is actually a reality on top!  It still looks like steaming garbage on the floor but I do what I can.   Saturday we decided to drive and find a Town de la Podunk and see what we could get into.  When we arrived at said place, we had a swing and a miss for an old fashioned donut shop.  For the love of God, they are not dinner rolls dunked in DQ chocolate dip cone sauce....

What I'm Reading This Week #15

Happy Friday all!  It's been a long but productive week for the most part, so that is good.  It's supposed to be almost seasonal for a change and while I'm certainly not one to complain about snow, but if you don't give me a base for snowshoeing, it's hard for me to get on board with April snow.  Nah, that's a lie.  It's still relaxing to watch.

Let's get right to...

A friend of ours has a craft show this weekend, so I'm thinking about going to that tomorrow.  (This is news to the Mr.)  I think he also has plans for us to see Ready Player One.  Lord help me.  That audiobook was HORRIBLE, so I hope the movie is nothing like it.  (It had more to do with the narrator than the content and when you are ready to turn the steering wheel into a barrier to just end the pain of having to listen to it, you know it's time to turn it off!)

What are you into this weekend?

  1. The narrator of that audiobook was the worst narrator in the history of audiobooks and did not do that book justice. Having read the actual book first I can say that the story is good and the 80's references were plentiful. Spielberg has a way of making something better out of the source material (Jaws as a good example) so I think it could be a good movie. I'm looking forward to it!

  2. I won't spoil it for you by giving you any details. I saw the movie the day it came out. I also read and really enjoyed the book.

  3. Great reads as always! Hope you guys have a great weekend. We have a little thing called the Boston Marathon happening this weekend (Monday), but it's supposed to be cold and rainy that day. Yuck. But today feels totally like spring may eventually get here!!! Sunny and 70!

  4. Oooh, a craft show! I'd be all over that. I hope it's a good and relaxing weekend for you both. I have a meeting tomorrow morning, then it's just house chores that I didn't even begin to tackle this afternoon like I had planned in my head. Ha! And I need to work on printing off some old family pics for my uncle's picture frame that I couldn't bring today because it wasn't done (slaps own hand). I'll be quite pleased if I can get that figured out and done. We're in for cold weather this weekend, too.
