Hump Day Poll

Good day to you all on this last Wednesday of August!   We have been in the declutter mindset but many of you know I get overwhelmed by where the heck to start because of our small, less than 1000 sq ft abode.  I've gotten help from things like sliding baskets in cabinets, little things that help with space like mug stackers for mugs,  and of course little pantries to be able to stock up on stable stuff when sales roll around.   Those things help when you've got a home in mind but for me, it's how to mentally push myself to start because it all looks so untacklable.  (New word alert.)   One of the best pieces of advice I ever got on that front was from my friend who said to tackle one small section at a time.  Like, say in your kitchen - do 1/4 of the total countertop area.  If you do more than that, all the better but you don't have to do anymore than a 12" space at a time.   I've also heard setting a timer for 10 minu...

What I'm Reading This Week #27

Good Friday mornin' to you and I hope some of you are enjoying an extended holiday weekend by taking today off.  Given the relentless onslaught of heat over the past month, I am reminded of court mandated summer's spent in California with dad where we would try to see fireworks.  Without fail, every year the mountain caught on fire. 🙄  Kinda feels like that.

Now let's catch up with:



Garlic Could Be a Secret Weapon to Keep Down Your Glucose And Cholesterol  (We gnaw on this black garlic every morning which is also supposed to be excellent for keeping the big C at bay.)

What You Need for Building Muscle After 50, According to Trainers (I can't wait to be able to add it back in.  I just used 10's the other night and felt it which made me sad given 15's have always been my go to.  C'mon mid back... step in line to heal my rotator cuffs!)

16 High-Protein, Low-Carb Snacks To Try  (It's not listed but must remember I have open bone broth in the fridge.)

How Often Do I *Really* Need To Switch Up My Workouts To Avoid a Plateau?  (Mr... time to break out the step for our walking workout days)

Peanut Butter Is Good For You . . . Right?  (It'd better be.  I eat it 5x week!  TJ's Valencia for the win!)





A Psychologist Reveals The Unexpected Benefits Of Swearing  (I knew my sailor mouth would come in handy!)

The Covid summer wave is here.  (I know no one wants to hear about it but unfortunately some of us will always have to follow this.)

Miss some posts this week?  Catch up below:



If the Mr gets to feeling better, we were going to road trip since weather prevented us last weekend.  I felt bad because our chiro is on vacation this week and the Mr called to see if another chiro was available but it was only Brute.  I know what he does for SI Joint stuff and he would absolutely kill the Mr.  I felt bad steering him away from that jerk but I seriously wouldn't feel safe with him going there.  Luckily he already had an appointment scheduled with our guy Monday.  I know we have a butt load of home projects we should tackle but I don't feel like I can do that until I get some business stuff up and running.  Hoping these early days of burnout will be worth it.

Anything planned for you guys?

  1. Hopefully everyone does have the day off today too. I do not, but work shouldn't be too bad today as it is historically quiet after any holiday that falls inside of the week. I may not be 100% but I am definitely good for a road trip and I am looking forward to it too. Have a great weekend everyone!

  2. I worked today too and I'll have to work some tomorrow. I have loads of laundry to tackle that I should have started yesterday, but only managed to wash the blankets, so I'm behind schedule. That's the plan for tonight and tomorrow with some cleaning and then church on Sunday. Enjoy your road trip, and hope the Mr.'s back feels better!
