Ho Hummish Weekend Recap

(source)



Final day of February eh?  Sigh, I guess that means Spring is coming soon which means it should be 90 in 30 days.  In the meantime, I'll remain snuggled under my blanket.  Friday night we did our solemn annual tradition of watching Twister on the day Bill Paxton passed.  Can't believe it's been 5 years.

Thanks so much to those celebrating in my all clear.  I continue to feel better thankfully and had my first workout yesterday that didn't totally swell the nethers.    I have been deep into Maneskin's music and I decided when the calendar turned February (and I knew my gynie check up was coming up and what that would mean for me mentally) that I wanted to actually understand them speaking on their IG stories.  So I'm 18 days into my streak at Duolingo learning Italian and I must say it really kept me from spiraling both leading up to the biopsy and waiting for the results.  I highly recommend it for those with anxiety.  It's just something to keep your mind busy and helped me refocus when the pain was pretty bad.  You can tell my day after the biopsy because my graph shot WAY up!  😂  I still can't understand them yet but I like to save all of Ethan's interviews and check them on occasion since he's the one that speaks slower than the others.  (Not by much but I'll take what I can get.)

Saturday we went to the pizza place that cancelled our order the weekend before.  I feel like God was trying to do us a solid by steering us away but we confirmed it was no bueno.  We split a baby 6" deep dish which was decent and got their NY style to try and would freeze it.  BLECK!  We threw it away.  Nothing worse than when you get culinarily jacked up for a place only to have it taste like 80's grocery store pizza.  We didn't really do anything.  Just driving to the pizza place 20 minutes away was enough time to be out in society which is a crap fest left and right.  So we ended up putting our back ups of 80's shows on shuffle so random shows would come on.  Stuff like Dukes of Hazzard, Gimme a Break, The Jeffersons, etc.  We had some good ones initially that had us all happy and getting a break from life and then all of a sudden two super dark episodes came on.  One of The Jeffersons where Florence had saved up pills and was going to kill herself. I don't ever remember this episode and I just sat there and quietly sobbed.  Then it was immediately followed by a Gilligan's Island where some rich game hunter lands on the island and they all think they're saved.  When they tell him there's no game on the island, he says he's going to hunt one of them and if the person can evade him for 24 hours, he'll make sure they're rescued.  I mean WTAF!?!?!  So those were two downers to end on.  I'm gonna have to have a talk with that shuffle button...no episodes worse than what's going on outside our door!

I can't remember, did I tell y'all that two rat bastards tried to break into my car around 1am after Super Bowl Sunday?  Friggin' 30 feet from where we sleep.  The Mr looked at the footprints in the snow and saw they tried our neighbors too so they were just looking for stupid people who leave their cars unlocked outside.  Literally the next day, we find out the Mr's car is on a recall list that 'hey, your car might catch on fire randomly, don't park it in or near structures!  Have a super Hyundai!"  Now we have to park his damn car away from our house with effin' hooligans roaming the neighborhood until they give a lame ass fix like they've given all of the other 75 recalls it feels like we've been a part of.  Needless to say, that has been a bone of contention in the anxiety department to the point we have to booby trap both cars now.  So when I said what's going on outside the door I meant both figuratively and literally.

Sunday we had a grocery pick up and then I wanted the workout over with so we went down and did leg day with Amoila Cesar on Beachbody On Demand then a good stretch session after.  It was time to hose off and I made some Hawaiian loco moco that fit into our calories.  Short grain brown rice, 90/10 beef patty and two basted eggs.  The beef gravy wasn't the best but I used it sparingly.  It was a good recovery meal after that friggin' grindfest of a workout.  Walking today should be interesting.  We caught up on Sunday morning which we basically fast forwarded through, then SNL was a crap show as usual.  The Mr had some computer stuff to take care of while I practiced some more Italian.  Then I got bored of listening to the douche a few doors down blast his music so I put on some jazz to try to block the thumping and keep some kind of sanity since I can hear a fly fart.  It was time to take the blow mold 1960's Noel candles I got off of Ebay in November off of the patio.  They are in such great condition and we didn't want the sun getting to them.  Plus...almost March so, there's that.  I got them wrapped up in ram board and the Mr tucked them into the attic where they'll be awaiting us in 8 1/2-9 months to put on a light show for two.  Other than that, we just chilled the rest of the night and that rounded out the weekend.  

Thrillsville.

How was your weekend?

  1. Pretty low key again but I still enjoyed the time off - never enough of it though. I am glad we got those blow mold candles put away finally. They look so good for their age already and I want to keep it that way. Have a great Monday everyone!

  2. Friday was a much needed do nothing day. Then Saturday the kid woke up with a stomach bug so that put paid to all of our weekend plans. He was better yesterday, but still didn't want to get out an about and expose the masses.

  3. It was grocery shopping on Friday and doing the laundry, Saturday was a meeting and swim class for one of the dogs, then housework. Sunday was washing bedding, making soup, then going to work. Seemed to go by in a bit of a blur.
