We're in a good eclipse zone. Starts around 1pm ... maximum eclipse around 2:30 pm ... finished by 4 pm. It's exciting. I don't have the glasses. I didn't make the box (no shocker there). It will be me and the microwave repair man enjoying the fun. Maybe he has a pair of glasses??
School is optional for students today. Busses will run late after the eclipse is over. It's the real deal folks. Pretty darn cool if you ask me.
I pulled my back yesterday. I lifted HEAVY - yea - good form, very careful. My back was tired, but not injured. Workout over. Upstairs to take dogs out. Bent over, twisted to the side with said tired back and grabbed the chihuahua to leash her up. UGH. So stupid. Good-bye back.
I image no workout today. It's scheduled to be a treadmill run, but I'm hurting. I'll see if it loosens as the morning progresses. Good news is it's not worse after overnight. I'm at maximum suckage so it will improve from here if I treat it well.
I hit a bit of grocery store yesterday, but we ended up having a friend over to watch a preseason Steelers game. I planned to shop during the game. Preseason is not my cup of tea. It was fun to catch up though and worth the missed shopping (the game -- boring as all get back). And by that time my back was misery anyway.
We had a great time at the lake. Dog JOY. ME JOY. My old man swam for an hour playing with a beautiful 5 year old lab. We had fun chatting with her mama. There was also a "doodle" club that came up from the city for a playdate - about 15 doodles running with my doodle. (Side note - he was the ONLY one dripping wet and soaked to the bone lol - he doesn't shake anything but his head.) All the dogs were in heaven and so well behaved. I love seeing dogs off leash, enjoying life as they should.
Belle stayed on leash (of course) and we kept her from direct interaction from the other dogs (no more cough, but just as an extra precaution). She didn't like going in the water on her own (lots of little rocks) but she loved swimming. It was so adorable to watch. Did I mention we are going to miss this little lady?!
No pictures as 2 dogs, a lake and a bad back made it difficult to have my phone "safely" on-the-ready.
Game of Thrones. Just. Stop. It. So good!!! Only one more episode left this short season. Boo.
I'm officially addicted to matcha smoothie. It's the whole package - flavor, texture, pretty bright green.
That's the scoop for today. Cooking went by the wayside because of the game and my back. It's up in the air until I start feeling better.
I'm probably going to be a news junkie today with all the eclipse fun (and stuck waiting for repair man and my back).
P.S. I have a snoring chihuahua on my lap 💕
