Others writing the Sunday Somethings: Kerry
Something that made me happy this week: About a dozen people will be giving blood this week, who otherwise might not have, because of a speech i made in Toastmasters. Also, two people asked me if i’ve lost weight.
Something i struggled with this week: Passive aggression. It is wearying to deal with.
Something tasty i ate this week: Green Beans w/ Potatoes and Bacon. It’s still an evil recipe (translation: superb), but this time i used turkey bacon instead of the Real Thing, so perhaps it was a little less evil.
Something i learned this week: If your dog is scratching, you can take it to the vet and get Magic Pills that really will work overnight. He is a happy dog again.
Something from the bridge table: I played no bridge this week.
Some things i am doing towards my goals: Nothing specific, though my ongoing goals continue: Toastmasters, running, family.
Something i am reading: Kushiel’s Avatar by Jacqueline Carey
Something happening around the house: We are fighting mold. Somehow one of the windows upstairs was left partially open, and the heat/humidity mixed with the air conditioning must have created the right conditions for it. It is splotched halfway across the ceiling in that room.
Something i am thinking: We only have one TV in our home that is set up for regular use. Sometimes i think i want to get a second one so i can watch the stuff i want to watch, especially during baseball and poker season. But then i think about the two of us sitting hypnotized in different rooms, just so we can watch different things.
Something i am looking forward to next week: Movie night with the book club crowd. And getting ice cream before the movie. And Friday is the last day i have to work for ten whole days! And we get to host Lance’s family for a night. And Ohio State plays its first football game Saturday. And then we go to the beach!!! This week is so exciting, i can hardly hold it in.
Something i am hoping: That the week passes quickly but vacation passes slowly.
Something random: I hate mosquitoes.
Something captured: A happy moment at home. (I have tried to resize this picture; if it appears too large, i apologize.)
