It is Thursday!!!
It is Thursday! That means it is almost Friday!
This is a picture of my poor car. The poor thing is covered in yellow pollen. He asks me to wash him but I tell I can’t. One minute out of the car wash and he will be covered again in the yellow/green crap. He is very sad. I tell him to look on the bright side, every other car we see looks just like him. His response, he flips his check engine light at me.
The good news, is that we should be getting some rain today that will hopefully wash away some of the pollen. The Boy is feeling better. Looks like the allergy medicine I found yesterday, although horrible in taste (at least from the way he reacts when he takes it), seems to be working. He just has a bit of a runny nose. Hopefully the rain will help him out tomorrow.
Tonight for dinner I made a turkey burger with Trader Joe’s Sweet Potato tots. I love these tots! My Man seems to like them too. I only wish they would get crisper when I bake them.
Whatcha Reading?
I finished listening to Say Goodbye by Lisa Gardner and just started The Killing Hour by Gardner. Like I said before, I am really enjoying her books. Say Goodbye although good, was a bit hard to listen too. Mainly because it dealt with the kidnapping of young boys and well it kind freaked me out. I am now thinking about getting The Boy a personal trainer who could teach him some self-defence, build up his muscles and help him grow his confidence. I know, he is only 8 but…well…he is my boy. Plus, I think he would have fun.
I just finished reading Gone by Lisa Gardner and even though I have one more book of hers to read, I have decided to read Beautiful Bastard by Christina Lauren. I will tell you right now, this book is NOTHING like the ones by Gardner. I believe this will fall under the genre of Erotica. I have heard good things about it, hopefully it will not disappoint.
Question: Why do kids hate blowing their nose?

My body hurts…
Getting up this morning was painful, very painful. I was feeling yesterday’s workout. I got My Man and the The Boy (whose eyes look swollen from allergies) off to work/school and took off to the gym. I got there at 7:30 and walked on the treadmill for 20 minutes. Then at 8 am SK came and got me for more torture. Really, it wasn’t too bad…in the beginning. By the time we started to work on my abs, I hit the wall…and backed up and hit it again. I was tired, my legs were sore and my knee really hurt. When I got home I took a few Advil for my knee and by the lunch time, it felt a lot better. Tomorrow I plan on riding the exercise bike and then on Friday I got back to see SK and then Yoga. By then, I will really need a good stretch and a nice glass of wine.
Random thought: We got our tax refund today! Woot! Woot!
The Boy’s piano lesson was cancelled today, so we went out to dinner instead! We had seen this burger place called Farm Burger when My Man and I were out for a date night last month and decided to give it a try.
Farm Burger is defined by its mission, its farms, its team, and its community. We depend on local farmers, ranchers and land stewards to make your burger as good as it is. From our beef to our tomatoes to our compostable containers to our owners, Farm Burger is sustainable, local, humane, and helping to reroute our food system to function more like an ecosystem than a corporation. Our goal is to connect soil, animal, plant, rancher, butcher, chef & you…all in a simple wire basket.
When I read this and saw their menu, I knew this was my kind of burger joint. As I have said in the past, I don’t eat much red meat since at most places you really don’t know where it comes from. Why all beef can’t come from happy cows, who live a happy life getting fat on grass and sun bathing, I don’t know. Hopefully one day.
Anyway, back to the restaurant. My burger was very good. The crisp pickles and yummy smoked gouda cheese made it delicious! My Man and I split a basket of fries and rings. The Boy got a kids cheese burger, fries and shake. He was happy. My Man was happy.
We were all happy.
Question: Do you ever feel that you don’t workout enough?
What am I listening to?
What am I listening to? Right now I am listening to The Avett Brothers.
The Avett Brothers are an American band from Concord, North Carolina. The band is made up of two brothers—Scott Avett, playing the banjo and Seth Avett, playing the guitar—and Bob Crawford, who plays the stand-up bass. ( from Wikipedia). My Man and I have seen them once in concert and in May we are taking The Boy to see them at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre, as part of his Birthday gift (but to be honest, we would have taken him anyway).
The two CD’s I have been listening to are The Carpenter and I and Love and You. Check them out! BTW…Both brothers have perfect teeth. Ask my girl Dee, she will agree with me!
