Howdy do Monday. Oh...and hello to you as well! Another weekend swirled down the drain and it was a hot one. Despite that, the Mr and I were going stir crazy so we went on a drive for a few hours. We ended up at a park in a spot away from other people.
I could see on the Mr's face the same thing I was feeling. I asked for a mental check in and he said things were both okay and not okay, driving around was both good and bad and we talked about a lot of our similar feelings about pretty much everything. I know that sounds ridiculous but any couples will know what I'm talking about when you're like minded and see people acting a fool. Our mental health has taken a real hit lately with no tangible end in sight. I had to actually tell myself to look at the trees, not through them. I forced myself to scan the ground and found a squirrel to watch to pull my brain out of glaze mode. It helped a little and we were glad for the change of scenery. We drove around a bit more before heading home.
We didn't have anything on the agenda but the Mr got a code from Redbox for $1.25 off and we figured we'd put it toward a movie we've been waiting on...
We saw the original when we were dating and it's in Halloween movie rotation so it had big shoes to fill in our eyes. We weren't fans. There were parts toward the beginning that had hope but they got slow in the middle and never recovered. Definitely a renter when it's not $20. Beh. But it was still nice having a date night with my honey with all of the lights off and candles lit to kick off horror movie watching for the season.
Sunday the Mr had a migraine that sadly, took over most of the day. We were able to get in an MBF Lower Body workout that kicked our butts. It always amazes me how those ropeless jump rope moves get your heart rate up before a workout. We use them now in warm ups and cool downs of all kinds. Then we settled in for the night after some turkey lentil pasta and a salad.

We do need to get out more and focus on nature like that, it was nice! Hopefully we can take advantage of our patio more now that temps will start to get more comfortable.
ReplyDeleteI took the boy and his friend to see Shang-Chi and the Legend of Ten Rings on Saturday. Then pretty much did nothing for the rest of the weekend.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter has had very good results with monthly migraine shots, RX is thru a neurologist, she gives them to herself
ReplyDeleteSo-so weekend with the usual house chores and working. Yesterday was supposedly our last day in the 90s and we hit all kinds of records this summer for heat. Very humid today though so it really doesn't feel much different.
