What I'm Reading This Week #26
Well you made it to Friday! I don't know where y'all are but unless you were near Glacier National Park that got snow this week, you were probably boiling in your own pudding to quote Charles Dickens. I do not dig 90 degrees by noon and it feels like everything is frying left and right including us. Most of the week I had the 50% shade cloths on the veggies to attempt to save as much as I can. I need to get the next batch of lettuce in the shade planter to see if I can successfully grow there over the summer since it never gets direct sun. I told the Mr the other day I feel like nothing is in the right place back there. I have a lot of containers and I don't know if I need to put some of them on a little ledge since the 5 gallon buckets take up so much room or not. The zinnias being in a long planter on the fence were a mistake but they were only put there because I had so many extras and didn't want to chuck them. I have a few struggling...
I had a great time at the festival and yes we did eat some junk food but we balanced it with some serious walking, so I feel good about that. It all just went by fast the way the weekends tend to do of course cause I'm wondering how it's Monday already again. Have a great week everybody!
ReplyDeleteI'm sad the weekend is over as well. I got a ton of yardwork done, donated blood, took my little in the lake paddleboating and out for awesome pizza with my neighbor. Have an amazing week!
ReplyDeleteI had a mini vacation, as I took off Thursday and Friday, but I was not ready to return to work this week. It has been crazy humid here, so it was nice not having to work or do much of anything on a set schedule. We took in a concert Friday night at a local fair and also took in some rides. Then on Saturday and Sunday I finally had a chance to make use of the kayak that we bought from Costco last winter. We paddle on the ocean, so the weather, tide and wind are always a consideration. My partner's son and I managed to get in two good long paddles at my father-in-law's cabin where we spent the remainder of the weekend.
ReplyDeleteYay for elephant ears!! Does da bestest!
ReplyDeleteWeekend was pretty good. I had a great meeting on Saturday morning and then had lunch with a friend and that was a lot of fun. Got home mid-afternoon and the hubs had just done all the vacuuming and had walked the pooches, which was wonderful. Sunday was grocery shopping and buying a new mower which went very smoothly compared to the fiasco a couple weeks ago. Then it was laundry, lots of paperwork and computer stuff. It's another nice weather day today so I've spent some time outdoors and enjoyed the fresh air.
Have a super duper week!
