Fingers Crossed Weekend Recap

Good Monday to you fine party people!  I hope you got to enjoy the mid-May weekend.  We kind of did.  What was not in the brochure was a nice power outage Friday at lunchtime just as the Mr was trying to cook his egg in the microwave.  While he hooked up the Bluetti's to the fridge and crockpot (kicking myself for not doing that Thursday), I put his egg on a small cookie sheet and put it over two candles and covered it with another cookie sheet.  It might take 3 hours but if you think with the price eggs that we're losing that thing, nope!  😝 Welp, I was finally able to transplant the wee (and not so wee) seedlings to their permanent homes.  I was basically forced out there due to the power outage Friday but thankfully it wasn't oppressively hot.  I got the clematis' potted up to bigger pots , sweet peas transplanted, my herb pot together and the zinnias and snapdragons in the wall planter.  Thankfully the electricity came back on by 4pm so...

What I'm Reading This Week #3

Happy, happy Friday all!  I hope you've had a wonderful week and are looking to get into some mischief for the weekend!  We completed the first week of our Joel/Autumn hybrid.

Le broken.

The Mr was in his final push this week for studying so that's always fun.  He took Thursday and Friday off to study so he's as ready as he can be.  Keep everything you have two of crossed for his test tomorrow!

Now let's test out...



This Is Why You Wake Up at the Same Time Every Night  (3:13am...like clockwork.)

Vigorous Exercise Can Greatly Reduce Your Risk of Cancer, Heart Disease  (Gotta love that!)

Stop Apologizing For Being Yourself  (I think I spend more time apologizing than just saying 'eff it.'   Something else I'm working on this year.)

If You Have a Slow Metabolism, Here Are 5 Doctor-Approved Ways to Burn Belly Fat  (So basically nothing new here anyone whose been trying to lose weight doesn't really know.  I've actually been diagnosed with it on my BodPod scans and it's maddening, to say the least.)

The Older You Are, the Less Narcissistic You Tend to Be  ("Tend to be" is the operative phrase.  I know a few who buck the trend.)

Why your debit card is the least secure way to pay for goods  (We don't even have one and you'd never catch me using it if we did especially these days.)

Too Much Stuff  (Getting rid of things, it turns out, is a lot harder than acquiring them in the first place.)

How to Let Go: Learning to Deal With Loss  (Not the way you think.  A must-read!)

An Ode to Middle Age  (A good read for both those who are there and those who aren't yet but need to be given the 'what's up' on what you're in for should you be lucky enough to get there.)

The Stowaway!  (Courtesy of the Mr.  I believe the phrase the stowaway is looking for is "hoooooly shit guys!!")

The Mr has his test tomorrow morning then I think our day is pretty open. 

How are you going to spend this glorious weekend?

  1. Best wishes to the Mr. on getting through his test and never having to deal with that aspect again!

    We have another storm coming starting this afternoon through tomorrow, so I'll be cancelling the meeting I have tomorrow morning since there will be ice. The hubs has a dental appt in the morning and it's in the neighborhood so he's comfortable driving there. I'll be working on house stuff and getting a box together for donations. Then I have to focus in on a workbook so that's my plan for the afternoon. Grocery shopping on Sunday, exercise, and that's about it. Rest for the hubs and reading for me.
    Have a super duper weekend!

  3. Thanks for the support! I am as ready as I think I can be but still have a full day of studying ahead. So looking forward to being done and then I plan to get Disney+ and binge the Mandalorian finally!

  4. I'd wish the Mr. luck but sounds like you've studied enough you don't need it. I suppose the alternative is to say "You got this!!!"

    After spending the holidays sick then heading out of town for a week, I need to get my decorations down then do some basic cleaning. The dogs tracked in a ton of mud and my hubby doesn't really see dirty floors until people are coming over.
