Catching Up A Bit

It’s been a lazy, rainy (hooray) Saturday around here. One of those kinds that not much of anything gets accomplished. I do have some laundry going in the washer. And we ran to Sam’s Club this morning where I picked up a few summer tops. Time to have some tee-shirts that aren’t advertising a school event.

On and off, I’ve tried to catch up on some blogs, looked at my emails (so many), and debated my Old Navy shopping cart. Downloaded a silly fashion battle game on my phone, then uninstalled it as I realized how much of a time suck it could be. Plus, so many ads!

Randomness From This Past Week

    • Yesterday, a kid told me he needed a pink cupcake. Um, me, too. Poor guy was having a hard time adjusting (possibly some underlying issues) and won’t be back. Kind of sad but it does happen sometimes. He’s got great potential for somewhere that can give him the one on one attention he needs.
    • On Thursday, I went for a very overdue eye-appointment (I was overdue before the pandemic so…) and was happy to find out my eyes are still in decent shape, my Rx changed very little. I think my job saved me there, no looking at a computer screen all the time. And I went ahead and splurged on a pair of prescription sunglasses as well. Oh, and technology can be amazing. No puffs of air, no need for getting my eyes dilated (cool photos of eye-balls to see even).
    • My schedule changed and I don’t have to work in the kitchen next week. Woohoo! Happy about that one.
    • My poor garden and flowers are not as pretty as they should be. My butterfly garden is a mess but the lavender is blooming. And we are so behind on planting things (okra) this year. However, we’ve had longer days of summer reaching into fall the past few years so that may save us.
    • Last night, I watched We’re The Millers on Netflix. How had I never seen that one? So funny! Definitely not one for young kiddos though! And now I have Don’t Go Chasing Waterfalls song stuck in my head.

(P.S. Since Jason Sudeikis was the lead in the movie, I should mention I read where they might be making a Ted Lasso spinoff!!)

  1. We are finally getting much needed rain here as well. I am sure my garden and plants are soaking up every drop of it. It sounds as though you had a fairly relaxing Saturday which is what we need at times.

    1. Glad you had some rain as well. We even had more on Sunday, now I’m waiting for it to be dry enough to work in the yard again. Yes, it was a nice relaxing weekend. Hope your week is off to a great start!

  2. Sounds like a nice Saturday. You can add me to the list of those who need a pink cupcake. LOL We finally got some rain here today that was much needed. My flowers in the pots have been looking fairly wilted. I hope today was also a restful day for you as well. Hope you have a good week!

    1. It really was, I didn’t get much done but I think I did need that break. Pink cupcakes for all! Except I’m trying to eat healthy…why can’t pink cupcakes be healthy? Ugh, LOL. Hope your week is off to a wonderful start!

  3. Glad you had a rain day! We all need those every now and then to do nothing but what we want! We’re the Millers was so funny. Trying to get caught up visiting some older posts. Have a great week.

    1. Thank you. Yes, I think I need to plan a few more days like that except the unplanned ones are truly the best. I could watch that movie again but I have other movies to catch up watching. Hope your week is off to a great start!
