Sunday Update - 2025 Week 15

 Wow, it's Sunday again.  Whoda thunk it?

Anyway... It was a week.  No writing or editing again this week.  I did the marketing thing because DE was on freebie, but I only did marketing M-W-F. Tuesday and Thursday were neglected.  Derp.  Tomorrow, Sleeping Ugly goes on freebie.  I need to prepare for that, I guess.  I'm unmotivated.

I did a boatload of reading last week.  4 books finished.  Woot.

In baking news... well, there isn't any.  Which is probably good for my lard butt.  I had planned on making a pizza, but then I lazed out and did french bread pizza instead.  

Despite being a toad in every other aspect of my life, I did do some active things this week.  There was only one day where I didn't really do much of anything.  The other days, I walked, gardened, sawed, or cleaned.  I walked 2.4 miles this week, which is my best week this year for walking.  After stepping on the scale this morning, I'm glad I decided to get back on the walking regimen.  Weight: 176.6.... ooph.

Speaking of gardening, I finally cleared out my shade bed.  Three astilbes survived the neglect and I still have one lily of the valley in there.  Everything else died over the two years of not really weeding in there.  :sadface:  Today, I tackle the cedar bed - which hasn't had anything planted in it for years, but I have plans to rectify that.  As for the already planted stuff, I have 4 glads coming up.  Also 4 of the dogwood seedlings look like they might make it :fingers crossed:.  The potted cedars are looking fine and both have plenty of new growth.  None of the other tree/shrub seeds are doing anything.  I think I might have a couple of volunteer redbuds in the yard, so I'll try to transplant those into pots.  I know I have volunteer elms and cedars.  I'm loathe to try and grow elms after The Tragedy of Elmer (wherein the deer ate him as soon as I put him in the yard).

In other news, there is no other news.  Life is rolling along and I'm rolling with it.  What's up with you?

  1. There was a week. Ugh. Yay for reading, gardening and being active!

    My week...was. Having real problems with the eyes for some reason. I see my eye doc in a month or so. I'm hoping it's just weather and allergies. Sadly, my brain has been on vacation too. I hope to have "news" for you this week. No promises. I'm disgusted with myself for slow progress cuz I'm loving it. Anyway.

    I sold a book on Amazon last week. ONE whole book. A short one. I now have 35 cents in my dashboard. 🙄

    It's warm. Today is supposed to be hot. I will NOT turn on the AC. I'll sweat first. No AC in April! That's a law.

    Okay. Break time almost over. I need more coffee and then to back to work. Later, tater!
