Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

What I'm Reading This Week #22

Welp, we've made it to the last day of May.  😮  Hi there folks and welcome to the end of the month edition of What I'm Reading This Week!  I hope your week has been fan-flippin'-tastic and you're ready for the weekend and a cocktail of tomfoolery and productivity.  I know we are!  You know how short weeks are, they somehow feel a day longer than a regular week.  Beh.

Not much going on this week so let's just jump right into:






Kombucha Could Trigger Similar Benefits to Fasting, Study Finds  (I usually can't stand anything fermented but gave some flavored tea a try and it didn't kill me so there's that.)

Large Review Finds CBD Products Don't Relieve Chronic Pain After All  (I don't know if you guys have noticed the drop off in having CBD products in your face 24/7 over the past few years and now I know why.  Well, that and just like Ozempic, it makes some hormonal birth control worthless.)


How Lifting Your Legs up Against the Wall Can Calm Your Mind and Reduce Stress  (I keep meaning to try this but I've also heard you don't need the wall and can just lay in bed!)


12 Window Treatment Ideas For Sliding Glass Doors  (We've only got our light filtering blind up and never rehung the curtain so I need some idears!)

The Best Ways to Keep Squirrels Out of Your Potted Plants  (Small chicken wire just under the mulch is the ONLY thing that has worked for us to keep those rat bastards for feasting on everything planted.)

10 Best Road Trips In The United States  (How many have you done?)

Why Being Near Water Really Does Make Us Happier  (We can vouch!  I so miss our daily walks of Oak Bluffs on the Vineyard.) 

It's been hotter than hell here already with record temps on tap all summer.  Maybe chuck a burger on the grill at 10am and smoke the neighbor and her hell dog back inside or something else that brings us happiness before retreating to the AC.

How about you?  What's on your agenda this weekend?

  1. The short week really struck this week and that's even with having a 2day training class break in routine mixed in for me. Have a great weekend everyone!

  2. This week went by so fast which is rare for a holiday week, but for whatever reason it's month-end and I have a lot to do to close out the month for work! I have to go grocery shopping today and then do some serious cleaning in the house today and tomorrow. Sunday I'm hoping to go to church and pray the dog won't be a terror in her kennel with her cone. Looking forward to watching gymnastics as well.
    Have a super weekend!
