- Itβs a constant battle of which I hate worse: Extreme Heat or Extreme Cold. Well, Iβm calling it. I hate extreme heat worse. At least when itβs extremely cold I donβt get to work feeling so nasty and sweaty. The air might hurt my face in the winter, but itβs not ruining my makeup. BUT at least this week has been a lovely reprieve from the nasty hot and humid weather earlier this month.
- Ken is working on a new lighting project in the basement. Itβs always a fun time when I go downstairs and see things like this lining the floor, and weird contraptions on the workbench.


- I went to the dentist for my checkup and routine cleaning. Apparently I need to floss more! Who knew! Oh, and they had an image of my x-rays on the monitor. It kinda creeped me out. Itβs like seeing my insides.
- I saw this illustration the other day, and it really spoke to me. Itβs about the βmental loadβ that women have with regards to household chores. I feel bad for bringing it up, because Ken is helpful with a lot of the chores around the house, but the whole βmentalβ aspect of simply thinking about chores and planning chores really does take up a lot of β¦, well, mental load!
- Iβve been checking out some new-to-me shows on The Food Network. Many years ago, I started off by watching 30 Minute Meals with Rachael Ray. Then I integrated Sandwich King, Alton Brown, and Pioneer Woman into the mix. But now I think Iβve seen every episode of Sandwich King and Alton Brown. (I donβt think those have new episodes anymore?) I set up my TiVo to record a few episodes of Farmhouse Rules and Valerieβs Home Cooking. Are there other good shows you recommend on there?
- I was OBSESSED with wearing overalls in high school in the 90s. And guess what I saw in JCPenney the other day! Woot woot!

Have a good weekend!
