What I'm Reading This Week #44

Hello November.  I hear the faint sound of Christmas music in the air and the collective groan of millions.  Poor Thanksgiving- always the overlooked holiday except on the day when everyone is oinking out.  I haven't given a single thought to it though if I remember correctly, I still have some of last year's turkey Food Saved in the freezer but the Mr is a turkey leg dude so we'll have to get another one.     

Did you all get trick or treaters this year?  We didn't for the literal 20th year in a row.   Is that a dying tradition?  I swear I don't see kids out and about anymore.

Now let's treat ourselves with:

Strength Training: 8 Exercises You Can Do in Your Living Room (I was talked to by my chiro since I've slacked on my shoulder exercises and they're getting worse again.  So resistance band in the bedroom to start my day it is.)

The CDC now recommends that people 50 and older get vaccinated against pneumonia  (Time to line up for the next one.  Looks like this is only every 10 years.)

Chicken-Potpie Twice-Baked Potatoes Are the Ultimate Comfort Food  (This sounds amazing.  I wonder if I can get the prep/cook time down a bit)

What to Do on 15-, 30-, and 60-Minute Breaks to Boost Productivity  (Good tips to make sure you get in some movement and brain power!)

15 of the Best Methods for Decluttering Your Home  (Where's the "I'm losing my mind and about to figuratively burn it down" method?  The book mentioned sounds interesting though.)

Five Questions I Ask Myself Before Every Therapy Session  (Good stuff to consider)

9 Traits Of Parents Whose Adult Kids Often Go No Contact Once They Grow Up  (That tracks)

How to Delete Your 23andme Data Amid the Company's Turmoil  (I haven't used it but I know many people have so in case someone out there needs it.)

Feds Say You Don’t Have a Right to Check Out Retro Video Games Like Library Books  (So everything before 2010 doesn't matter??  Not like we'd have what we have now without them 🙄)

These Are the 3 Settings I Change on a New TV—and Why You Should Change Them  (Good tips if you're planning on some Black Friday deals!)

Saoirse (Ser-sha) Ronan Masterfully Silences Male Hollywood Stars (If you haven't seen this, stop what you're doing and watch it with the volume up.  There is nothing more gratifying as a woman than seeing three grown ass men get real uncomfortable and virtually sh*t themselves because they don't live in the same world we do.  Yeah, a phone seems ridiculous to you, to women it may be all they have as a last ditch defense)

When Your Body Talks Weekend Recap

Hump Day Poll: To Jingle or Not to Jingle 

Now that holiday shopping season floodgates are open, feel free to stop by the shop to see some of the goodies!  The earlier you shop, the better before orders start piling up with the print partner.

(Hot Cocoa and Christmas Movies Sweatshirt - Woodland Animals Have a Cup of Cheer Mug - Cardinals Appear When Angels Are Near Ornament - Santa's Favorite Sweatshirt - 2025 Disco New Year's Eve Tee - Black Friday Crew Travel Tumbler)

Nothing concrete planned for the weekend except grocery pickups as usual.  Temps are finally dropping back a bit after a few days in the 80's which was not cool.  Figuratively and literally.

What's on tap for you this weekend?
