What I'm Reading This Week #16

Good Friday to you!  Literally.  I can't believe Easter is here.  Anyone else having epic wind and rain storms over the past month?  I mean good friggin' luck trying to enjoy any time out there and we're not afraid of weather.  As I type, there are 40mph gusts.  I went out to paint the critter cages on the planters and feel like I have hypothermia at 47 degrees when yesterday's weather forecast said it would be 74 today.  Da fuq?  Guess who finally took the bedroom Christmas tree down Wednesday?  It was neutrally decorated so it was fine but it came on every night and gave a cozy glow.  I knew one day I would look at it and know it needed to go to sleep until November 1st.  That's the other thing, I will be decorating for everything extra early from now on.  August 1st- Fall decor as I will thoroughly be over summer by then and given that's the day Mom passed, I'll need something to lift my spirits.  November 1st it'll be ...

What I'm Reading This Week #20

Heidi ho, you sassy beasts!  It's Friday, in case ya didn't know and that means (hopefully) your work week can kiss your butt for a few days and you can work on getting the yard ready for planting.  (Or are you one of the ones who planted before your last frost and are now lamenting the loss of flowers?)  I made that mistake once and my Grandma chided me "I told you to wait until after Mother's Day!"  I know, I know!  Pffft!  You never know what mama nature has up her sleeve!   I still have to think on what I want to put out there but one thing at a time as my brain isn't powered that direction just yet because I know throngs of the masses will be descending upon every nursery.

Now let's descend upon:





ā€˜I started resistance training at 65 and significantly reversed my severe osteoporosis’  (Now THAT'S what I'm talking about!  Get started pumpin' iron at any age!)



10 Fruits High in Vitamin C—and How They Benefit Your Body  (Skeevies no longer have a "season" anymore so eat up!)


Stevia and Other Non-Sugar Sweeteners May Not Increase Appetite Levels, Study Finds  (I could've told you that.  The claim was always they make you end up eating more but I use them every day and my calorie intake doesn't change unless I change it on purpose.)



The one movie John Cusack hated with a passion: ā€œI will never trust you as a director ever againā€  (I guess the paper boy isn't the only one who wanted his two dollars back.)


Miss a post here this week?  Catch up below!



It's been a busy few weeks and we're back to reality which is always waiting to greet you.  I suppose we should consider when/if we want to start on the patio boards.  I really wish we would've done those in April because now all of the nosy's are out.  So tempted to tarp the patio to keep prying eyes out.  (Looks for a portable pop up tent.)

What's poppin' for you this weekend?

  2. This weekend I will be at home watching over the pooch. I cancelled everything else I had going on and will be doing some housework and getting in some good reading while keeping things calm and quiet for her. It's supposed to be in the upper 80s so I'll be happy to be indoors. A friend did a ding-dong-ditch and dropped off a flower basket so I'll work on getting that put out back where it can have sun and shade.
    I hope you guys have a good weekend getting back to the grind and taking care of what needs to be done, and letting the rest go for a few more days if need be. Good luck with the backyard stuff, too!!
