Did this week seem over before it started for you too? I have no plans for the weekend and after the birthday weekend I’m ready for a little down time to focus on home chores and rest.
Taxes
The tax collector was paid twice this past week. First up was our second installment of property taxes. Then we prepared our Federal and State tax returns and learned a big check needed to be written.
I’m hoping we don’t get hit with a underpayment penalty and am increasing my withdrawal in my check to ensure this doesn’t happen next year.
Timehop Fail
Do you use the Timehop app? I normally love it as I get to see pictures or thoughts I posted on social media one year, two years or more ago on the same date. It’s all good except when it was something I didn’t want to relive.
Late last week I saw a Facebook post from three years ago where I mentioned my mother wasn’t doing well and asked for prayers. That was the day I learned I needed to get to Kansas right away and my mom passed away 10 days later.
I wish the app was smart enough not to show these types of messages as it definitely put a damper on my day.
Kaia FIT
This is the third week of Kaia FIT’s Spring Into Action session. I took my birthday off Monday but will make up for it by attending the Saturday session for the first time.
I’ve been sore all week so I am definitely working my muscles!
Crisp Tools
I won a giveaway hosted by Valerie’s Kitchen for two cooking tools from Crisp Tools. One of them I picked was the wavy knife shown above. I’m thinking it will add some fun to vegetables. I don’t naturally gravitate to veggies so anything I can do to make them more attractive is helpful.
I also want to get a spiralizer at some point.
What I’m Watching
Did you see the PBS series on Cancer? Cancer | The Emperor of All Maladies aired last week and I finished it this week. It is produced by Ken Burns and is a very interesting history of cancer including research, treatments, etc.
A new show I watched this week is Younger where a 40-something women pretends to be 20 years younger in order to get a job in the publishing world. I haven’t decided what I think about this yet. I like pointing out ageism but is this the solution?
That’s it for this week. Have an awesome weekend!
