What I'm Reading This Week #31
Good morning and welcome to August. Time is so weird, isn't it. It's insane we're starting the 8th month of the year but yet if I thought back to where we started the year in snow, that seems like a lifetime ago. It's been a very long year yet seems to have gone fast - how does that work? Anyhoo, I hope you're ready to roll for the weekend and the week didn't drop kick you too hard. Once again our HOA was refusing to do their job and wanted to check the drainage. This problem is on our subfloor. ..above anyplace for drainage to be an issue with no gutters above it. Then the woman in power sits on emails all friggin' day and purposely sends things out on her way out the door so another day gets wasted.

That is hilarious (the body suit and also the robot voice).

I've done so many. They all work for while, even the sweat suit, but they are difficult to maintain and often you lose water weight and maybe muscle. Healthy habits are the way to go but if you were put on one of these fad diets in elementary school, as I was, you learn bad habits that haunt you your whole life. I've learned that any system that requires you to pay money or join a membership to learn its 'secrets' is probably a scam to make money for someone else and is unlikely to help me change lifelong habits.
