[memes] Books That Have A Girl Nervous! + my week


Well having a cold sucks. I'm better now thank the stars but that was an unpleasant way to spend 6 days. Goodness. I'm working on getting caught up and nearly there :)

Other than that it was a pretty average week. I stayed in bed and didn't leave the house for most of it so I wouldn't share my ick. Got some reading done, purged some, did my steps, ate all the things. lol

[memes] Newest TBR additions? + my week in reading


Yall. It was COLD this week aaaaaand I got a cold. *hangs head*

It wasn't a bad week, though! I had the USO. And I went to a great concert. Scotty McCreery came home to play a show (he's a local boy from my county). It was sold out and wow he does a great job! He's such a dang cutie, too. Jimmie Allen opened for him. I enjoy him, too, though he struggled a bit with the performance. Scotty rocked it from the very start. Woo!

I wanted to meme. So there's a whole lotta memeage happening in this post. You might have to scroll down a bit to get the one you're looking for. 😸


Ahhh a week and a bit down for 2019! It's been a good year so far. Mostly. I've been rocking my 10,000 steps a day (got it every day!) and my calories. Taking my vitamin and working round the house. Have been doing some good reading, too. So not bad!

Woo! Last bit of 2018 and first bit of 2019 has been a whirlwind. A good one, though. It's been busy on all fronts.

Home Front
  • I've been doing...all the things. ALL THE THINGS. End of the year got me motivated. Paperwork, finances, organizing, getting all my ducks in a row. 
  • The herd is all hanging in there and doing well. Yay!
  • I'm excited for 2019. I'm doing a lot of changes this year and getting healthy. So far 4 days in I've met all my goals. Including 10,000 steps a day. Which for someone who works at home on the computer is huge. I know it's just 4 days in but I'm feeling good about it all. Yay me! lol

Whew this week. And almost the end of the year. Yikes!

  • I had my last shift of the year at the food pantry. It was busy but went well. 
  • I got way into 2019 prep. And it was kinda exciting? I've been tackling my e-life. Purging files, bookmarks, emails.
  • And prepping the house. Cleaning, organizing, purging. Cooking. I've been loving it. lol

I wanted to meme. And only had one weekly post to do it. So there's a whole lotta memeage happening in this post. 😸


Ahhhhh can the week be over now? lol
  • We got a LOT of snow for our area. 6 inches, then hours of rain then 2 more inches. It was gorgeous and chilly and thankfully melted pretty quickly. Only a few areas of snow still left on the ground. 
  • Food pantry and USO went well!

The Home Front
  • Lots of house work, organizing, purging. Made a little progress.
  • The food pantry was slow but lots of shelving was done so a good thing
  • I had a moment and put a huge dent in both passenger doors on the new car. It's bad. It was stupid. And will cost me. Blerg! But it drives and I'm fine.
  • I went to a Menorah Lighting which was interesting.

So a lot of books happened this week. That's about it. lol 

I had off from the USO and food pantry and had no other commitments. So I read a lot and did a lot of planning and worked outside. That's about it.

Thanksgiving happened and that was low key, too. I don't usually do much for it but did decide to cook this year and do some yummy things. 

I wound up making... Za'atar encrusted grilled Halloumi, stuffed sweet potato, balsamic roasted veggies, mac & cheese and cornbread and a chocolate cream pie. Spent a total of like 8 bucks thanks to couponing. $4 of that was the dang cheese. But it was delicious and oh my word I'm stuffed. Still. The herd had a wet food feast, too. And I pet sat the pup next door which is always fun.

This week went by pretty quickly. We had a ton of rain that just would not end, I don't know that we saw the sun even once and had our first freeze. So...that was fun. lol

Args! This week. It really wasn't so bad overall but ended with some disappointment. I planted a lot, noticed my lettuce and garlic coming up!, worked at the food pantry and did a lot of piddling around the house getting ready for a trip to Georgia for a concert.

Reading went well, too. Some fun reads by new and old authors.

Cleo wound up having a quick vet visit because she was feeling poorly and the vet found an infected tooth and crackly lungs. We think she aspirated some of her previous meds (she's a fighter) so she got a new med. 2 days later she's feeling SO much better, thankfully.

Another week down. Goodness it's going too fast! This week was a mix. I had the USO which is always great. I skipped the food pantry, though. Cleo was having a hard afternoon Wednesday so I decided to stay home with her.

I'm continuing the whole plant mom thing and bought more. *hangs head* But what's gone in is looking good!

I couponed and cleaned and organized. Read and did Blog Ahead. I have SO many posts done. Some even out to December 2019! Yikes!

Oh this week. Yeah. It was a special one. lol
G's feelings about not being properly worshiped
this week. lol
  • I got a new laptop! My old one was having trouble staying charged and would suddenly die on me even when plugged in. Which made everything incredibly challenging. The new one is fine. It's a Dell Inspiron. We're getting to know each other still. lol Hopefully blogger-me will do better now that she has a reliable laptop!

Whoa boy it got cold, yall. It was like summer...summer...WINTER! lol We're getting down into the 30s at night. Holy cow.

This was a pretty good week.
  • I had the USO and food pantry. Both went well though were equally quiet.
  • I loved the garden center I checked out. They were super helpful and assisted me in spending WAY too much money but look at the pretties! Totally worth it. I'm actually going back today. lol

It was a pretty great week here! I got a TON of stuff done. And survived another hurricane. smh

  • We got a ton of rain today and some impressive wind. Thankfully, unlike Flo, Matthew moved real quick and left us be. Whew!
  • I got a new power washer. And then promptly had to call Danny in FL because oh my word it stated smoking! (too much oil) It did a great job and I've got the steps and sidewalks done. Next up the driveway.
