What I'm Reading This Week #14

Annnnd we're revving into Friday. source I must start with a teary goodbye to Val Kilmer.  No lie, three days before he passed I got the song " How Silly Can You Get " from the movie Top Secret in my head out of nowhere.  I hadn't seen a reference, heard anything about him and definitely hadn't heard that song in 20+ years.  I said to the Mr "I wonder how Val is doing?" then I soon got my answer.  I remember seeing Top Secret at the drive in with Mom when it came out.  When Real Genius came out on HBO, it was one of the few movies my Dad and I bonded over, is in my top five movies of all time and is the Mr and I's love language after I make him king of the winter carnival.   source Anyone who followed Val's career and personal life over the decades knows he got a little out of the box and didn't settle for norms which also included his approach to his throat cancer.  He lived authentically himself which is something we all hope to say when o...

What I'm Reading This Week #11

Happy Friday, my lovelies!  It's been a week between getting our butts handed to us with workouts and the ER visit and results.  We need a good weekend as I'm sure you do as well!  

Let's get right to...



Low-Carb Diet For Weight Loss Linked To Atrial Fibrillation  (Something to consider.)

This Is How Much Salt You Can Have A Day  (It may be less than you think!)

8 Pancreatic Cancer Symptoms Your Doctor Won't Tell You About  (Incessantly tricky and often not caught until it's too late.  My grandpa passed from it.  If you're BRCA positive, your risk is higher according to my doc.)

4 Keys to Fat Loss Beyond ā€œEat Less and Move Moreā€  (It's not that simple, and people need to stop perpetuating this blanket way of thinking.)

These Handy Tricks Get Rid Of Tension Headaches In A Minute Flat  (I don't know about a minute, but I can vouch for this.)

How to Actually Get Your Doctor to Listen to You   (I don't see putting them in a headlock when they dismiss you based on your size on the list.)

5 Weight-Loss Rules You Can and Should Break  (Yeah, I'm sorry, but salads are the worst if they're the main meal IMO.)

This Is Why You Need to Keep the Cap on When Recycling Plastic Bottles  (Holy crap!)

Make Sure You Donā€™t Keep This One Thing In Your Junk Drawer   (My grandma kept those in there all the time!)

Olivia Newton-John Opens Up About Recent Health Scare, Death Rumors and How Sheā€™s Really Doing with Cancer  (Absolutely love her.  Was so obsessed with her as a kid!)

Bride Goes Viral For Her Hilarious ā€œOfficeā€-Themed Bridal Shower  (Fact...this is funny and good for her bridesmaids for going all out!)

The Great Star Wars Heist  (Scandalous!  For real.)

Sadly, it's grocery weekend.


It looks like once the winds pass today, we're supposed to have a streak of better weather.  I'm sure just acknowledging that will jinx it. 

You have anything less terrifying going on than circling Trader Joe's and Whole Foods parking lots?

  1. So glad it's Friday but yeah, then the realization that it's the grocery day Friday and it taints it a bit. Oh well. We'll just have to make the most of it anyway. Have a great weekend everyone and thanks for the well wishes!

  2. I'm fighting off some kind of cold so I'll be laying low indoors this weekend with plenty to keep me busy with boxing up donations and shredding more old stuff. The hubs took a half day today so the dogs will be thrilled when he comes home. I'm looking forward to the end of my work day and a much-needed weekend.

  3. I keep batteries in my junk drawer too. I guess I should clean that thing out one of these days. I'm doing the last of the packing and then heading out for spring break. We fly out tomorrow. I'll be glad when we get there, but the whole airport/flight/customs thing... I'd rather be circling the parking lot. I just have to remind myself that the day ends with me on the beach.
