Here's some life updates from the weekend.
Saturday was a bust. I had a stomachache and bloat the entire day. Lunch on Friday ended up being pizza - ugh. Has gluten suddenly become an issue for me? Maybe my system is just ramped up and needs some time to settle down. I hope so. AND I was super sad all day. For. No. Reason. Gluten, is that you too??
I have this weird twitching tremor in my left hand since earlier in the week. I credited lifting and holding a really heavy bar in lift class as the cause. Could be. I expected it to stop by now. Of course my mind is going to bad places. At first it was cute, funny ... ha ha. Now I'm approaching worried. You hear too many stories as a nurse. Crazy me is back!
My blue nail polish is holding up well. But I'm already sick of it - knew I would be! First chip and it's gone!! I used another brand the salon has because the color selection is better. I'm curious how well it lasts compared with the Essie.
My new concealer came (after it was lost - reshipment needed). I'll try it today.
I LOVE my blonde hair. Not crazy blonde, but when I look in the mirror I feel BLONDE.
The mystery book I'm reading is interesting (All is Not Forgotten). Written in the perspective of the therapist helping the family deal with the assault. I'm expecting a big twist or shock -- hope it comes -- or the book might be a dud. My sister loved the book, but we don't always have the same taste in books (or movies) (or Presidents for that matter).
September is a trip to Canada to visit my aunt and uncle at their cottage. Cliffs, lighthouses, whales, lobsters ... quaint and COLD and beautiful. We've been invited for the past 3 years and hubby never wanted to go. This year I told him I was going - and I'd go with someone else - no problem. He wanted to go with me though (reluctantly - not as safe without him) so the date was planned around his schedule (hence September). Now he can't go. I'm annoyed. Of all the trips I didn't want to travel solo - over the boarder with a long drive in a rental car, lots of wilderness, etc. Everyone I'd travel with is unavailable in September. Ugh. But I'm going. It's a trip on My HAPPINESS PROJECT and one I've wanted to go on for years. Big girl panties, GPS, food, water - it's happening - I can do this. I'm booking my flights this week.
(I'm annoyed because I didn't listen to my first instinct - go with someone else. There's a possibility hubby's work schedule will not coordinate, but just a possibility. Since he doesn't really want to go, he's canceling at a whiff of a conflict - thought I'd cancel too. Nope. He's back-pedaling a bit and saying if I can be flexible, MAYBE he can go. Again, nope. I was already too flexible. If I concede to his "more flexible" idea then there is a chance the trip gets canceled outright. Funny how his golf weekend was also in jeopardy but he was able to figure that out.)
Sunday was an interval run on the treadmill - hello cardio. Then a trip to the lake to let pup swim. It's too humid for his old bones to hike. He needed some fun too. And, of course, Game of Thrones, but I petered out and will watch it today. I can't wait!
Not the best pictures. I was too busy swimming and playing
to have my phone handy. He's a wet monster - the only dog I know
who can't shake dry! We had a great time - he's a ham in the water!
Today is contractor call day (again) and grocery store runs. Youngest will be home for dinner so I'm cooking something yummy (I need to figure it out!). My INTENTION today is to do some soul-searching. I think it's time to figure out some stuff. More on that soon. Later gators.
