Did Statins Help?

Pardon if this is riddled with typos but it's 2:30am. I got my lipid blood test results back yesterday.  I'm going to assume heading into perimenopause years shot my numbers up because nothing has changed food wise (though stress wise it's been astronomical the past few years which apparently contributes as well). A reminder, I was at 264 at the beginning of December and my shuck and jive speech to get my shit together didn't land well with her.  After a talk with my bestie who is on them convinced me (us) with her experience, I relented and agreed to go on them. After almost 4 months on a 10mg dose (the lowest dose available), I'm at 184.  So, I guess they work.  😂   I will also say this is with zero dietary changes and a pretty scattered workout schedule the past two months.  I hope in time when all of the projects are done and we are finally able to focus on ourselves that I can eventually go off of them with hard work.   I'm pleased with...

What I'm Reading This Week #47

Happy Friday all!  Does anyone do Black Friday stuff anymore?  I never have but wasn't sure if that was still a thing since most stores have supposedly had month long deals.  I hope all of my American peeps had a great Thanksgiving whether it was a full on family bonanza that makes you look forward to (or dread) Christmas or low key like ours.  

Now let's get to:







The Best Way to Wash Your Dirty Pillow, Without Making it Lumpy  (Better get on this.  Or maybe just buy a new pillow.  Pffft.)

5 Subtle Signs Of Insecurity That'll Kill Any Relationship  (Good things to be on the lookout for.)

Don’t Throw Away Those Silica Gel Packets! Here Are 14 Ways to Reuse Them (Ooh, some really good suggestions!  We just unrolled a ton in an area rug.)


Tips for Tighter Miters and Better Coped Joints  (Good tips.  Don't worry Mr, this just popped up in my feed.  I wouldn't be dumb enough to suggest any projects.)

60 Clever Stocking Stuffers the Men in Your Life Will *Actually* Use  (A few good suggestions and some the Mr actually has but some real head shakers too.)

67 Decor Ideas That'll Seriously Upgrade Your Christmas Tree  (Yes, please!  I saw an idea about making sachets with essential oil to make your fake tree smell real.  I think that'd be a nice mindless project.)

I don't have specific plans.  I know the Mr will be watching football so that'll leave me free for whatever.  

What are you up to this weekend?  What was on your Thanksgiving table?

  2. The hope for today is to finish up in the garage and keep working in the kitchen. We have to do a simple run to the grocery store, but not sure if he wants to do that today or wait until tomorrow. Enjoy a nice weekend!!
