What I'm Reading This Week #36

Well hello you!  So happy you stopped by and hope you're ready for September.  It was a nice birthday week in comparison to last year when we rolled into Kentucky to be greeted with 103 degrees.  So 81?  Yeah, I'll take it!  I saved the gift boxes from my friends to open on my actual birthday including a surprise box I wasn't expecting and it sat in the Amazon pile a little longer than it should have so that was nice.  We got my free bundtlet from Nothing Bundt since I pre-worked it off with 9000 'steps' on the bike for 800 calories.  We both rolled our eyes at the insane amount of visual shrinkage going on there as the cake doesn't even touch the sides of the package anymore like it used to.  If you think we're paying $6 for that crap, you're nuts!  (We don't get them unless there's a bogo going on anyway- way too expensive now compared to the $3.99 they were when they rolled into town 8 years ago.  Anyhoo... It was your typical midweek...

What I'm Reading This Week #34

In case you forgot, I wanted to be the first to remind you:

I had a wonderful afternoon tea with my friend the other day and it was just what we both needed.  Lots of good conversation, laughs and even a few tears, which seems to be our norm.  It's been a glorious few days here weather wise but I see that ends Sunday.  I'll just make sure to soak up today and tomorrow before the stank of summer sets back in...hopefully for a last hurrah.  

Now that the puppy has properly prepared you for the weekend, let's click on...
