Hump Day Poll: Your Childhood Go To's

Candy Edition! I was thinking about my Mom's 50th birthday party.  It was a wonderful memory because I worked really hard on it and planned it for 9 months to make it great for her.  Because she didn't have a 25th wedding anniversary, I knew I was going to go all out for her 50th.  I had family, friends, people from high school, co-workers (ones I knew she liked! 😁) and I loved seeing her face when she would see people she hadn't seen in a long time.  One of the biggest hits that people talked about for years after were the retro candy baskets on every table.  I bought ones that I knew were her favorites as well as looking at what were popular at the time.   People lost their minds and were squealing like kids when they saw their favorites. I got all of the candy through Candy Favorites website and it's always so fun to look through. I was perusing the site, I was thinking of what stuff I'd want in the baskets on my table for a party like Mom's: Cher...

What I'm Reading This Week #41

Happy Friday!  I don't want to jinx anything, but it looks like some actual seasonal weather is heading our way.  This 90 degrees crap of the last week can kiss my dimpled butt.  I do not live in the South on purpose therefore 90 in October is wrong, and the Mr strongly agrees.  Fall is here, time to break out the long sleeves dammit!

Now, let's fall into...



How much you should walk in a week to see a major improvement to your health  (Do it, see no major improvements at all after 4 months.  Next.)

10 surprising ways your body is telling you to drink more water  (Read in Jeff Foxworthy accent:  "If your pee looks like you whizzed the contents of an apple cider mill, you might be a redneck need more water.")

40 Ways to Get Your Best Body in Your 40s  (Where's the trade in option?  Mine's a lemon.)

5 Unexpected Health Benefits of Sweet Potatoes  (Gimme all the sweet potatoes.)

30 Alzheimer’s Red Flags You Should Never Ignore  (If wording some of the same symptoms in different ways is one of them, this author needs to be tested.)

Jameela Jamil Slammed a Troll Who Body-Shamed Her at the Gym  (First off, if I said "yas queen!" on the regular, it would apply to her response (NSFW -language), and second, if some douche nozzle is trolling HER, there is no hope for anyone else.)

30 Things Every Couple Should Do Together At Least Once   (Some fun things in there that aren't over the top.)

70 Stores That Will Be Closed on Thanksgiving Day  (Sooo hoping more stores follow suit.  There is nothing more irritating than when the cousins use shopping as an excuse to leave early, and I'll ask what they're shopping for..."eh, nothin'."  I want to yell "SITCHO @SS DOWN AND BOND, JERKS!")

This Video of a Mom Unable to Get in — or Out! — of Her Spanx Is as Real as It Gets   (FYI- language but so friggin' hilarious especially when she calls her kids for help.)

Mark Your Calendars! 'It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown' Will Air on October 18  ("It won't be long nowwww!"

It's someone's birthday weekend (hint: not mine), so we're going to be getting into mischief, "and ma'am, sometimes I do get into mischief..."


Sorry, I lapsed into Home Alone 2.

What mischief are you getting into this weekend?

  1. "Look at my belly button". I almost snorted out my coffee through my nose. I'm pretty sure this is what would happen to me if I ever tried to put that on.

    We are heading out of town tomorrow to pick up some supplies for the boy's first scout camping trip next weekend, and then hitting the Halloween store. YAY! We are also going to see Goosebumps 2.

  2. I have a meeting to lead in the morning, then doing some grocery shopping if the hubs has to work, otherwise we'll do that on Sunday. No lawn cutting at least! lol I need to continue working in the office and have two empty boxes just waiting to be filled with giveaway stuff. If I can fill those, I'll consider the weekend a victory. And given how I'm feeling, I'm in a "dump and run" mode, so this shouldn't bee to difficult. =o)
