What I'm Reading This Week #34
Hello you sassy beast! Ready for another flip flappin' fantastic weekend? Yes indeedy, Ally Sheedy. It's been a week of working ahead for me as I try to work on ideas for holiday posts. I know, no one is ready for Christmas but spit balling stuff is actually getting me excited for the season. I like to try to give myself the month of December off from writing new posts (except updating weekly happenings) so all I have to do is respond if needed. It lets me take a little mental break during the holidays to try to enjoy what I can then hop back into the new year hopefully rested and ready to roll. We did book our 30th anniversary trip, which is the same one we had to cancel this year and of course got travel insurance. It's just nice to have something to hopefully look forward to and it makes you go "where the heck did 4 1/2 years go?" because it seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 25th. Do people even celebrate their 30t...
It was nice to see the sky lit up like that on our walk. I hope we can get a few more walks in this summer. Nothing beats fresh air.
ReplyDeleteI've been enjoying the weather, but I think it is still much cooler here than where you are at. We have only had two or three really hot days so far, and not yet hot enough to drive me inside. My partner and I have been enjoying walks with our neighbour's dog in the evenings, after he arrives home from work, but before supper. On the few days that it has been hot, we have just delayed the walk until later in the evening, after supper.
ReplyDeleteOooh, that's such a pretty sunset! We had a nice one yesterday with mammatus clouds that was very striking. The heat had a lot to do with that. We've had some lovely weather days this spring whre it's been an absolute pleasure to be outside. We haven't sat outside very much yet though and we still need to bring the chiminea up from downstairs so we can enjoy that some nights. Now that the grill is going again, we will probably enjoy eating out there more this summer, so long as the bugs aren't lurking. We just cut the lawn a little while ago and it was HOT. There was a really good breeze though and that was a pleasant surprise. I'm glad we got it done before noon so any naps in my immediate future will be guilt free. LOL
ReplyDeleteWe are supposed to break 100 tomorrow, and we've been hovering in the 90s for about 2 weeks now. All this week has been 97-99ish so any outside stuff has to happen ridiculously early or late evening. I did get yard work done Monday, but have been hiding in the A/C the rest of the week.
ReplyDeleteI ordered a new stand mixer so I've been entertaining myself with that.
