The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated reviewer book blog, and is a post to recap my bookish and non-bookish things from the last week. I'm also linking up to The Sunday Salon hosted by Deb Nance @Readerbuzz.
It's been an uneventful week, just the usual: work, gardening (lots of weeding!), cats, puzzles, reading and exercise. I go on walks and run, but also do weight routines from someone I follow on Instagram: @carolinescircuits. I love her routines! I'm trying to lose a few pounds before our next Montana trip. I'm just a few pounds over what I'd like to be, but boy is it tough to lose weight in my 50s!
My husband and I went to dinner with my sister and her husband downtown. I work tomorrow (Sunday), which is a bummer because I'll miss out on the Innkeeper Chronicles for the read along hosted by Anne @Books of My Heart.
My blue hydrangeas are starting to bloom

It was pretty cool yesterday and today. Didn't break 70 degrees for our high and we sat by the fire outside last night and tonight.

How was your week?
Your flower photos are pretty. ALso the fire.
ReplyDeleteI hear you. My 50s have been unkind. I hope all your hard work pays off. That fire looks so cozy.
ReplyDeleteBattle of the Books sounds really good! Girl, I am so close to being 50 (November is closing in fast) and it feels impossible to lose weight. Lol. It's really uncool.
ReplyDeleteI don't have to lose weight but my husband do and yes, it's difficult to shed said weight when you are over 50! Good luck with your training Rachel, you can do it!
ReplyDeleteSometimes uneventful is good. And I feel your pain about trying to lose a little weight! Love that cute pic of Starla on your puzzle. :D Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteI'll miss you on the chat. I hope you are successful at the weight loss. I was very successful in my 50s but now it's even harder. I have the same kind of blue hydrangeas and I love them but the deer ate a lot of them.
ReplyDeleteAnne - Books of My Heart This is my Sunday Post
Lovely pictures! The fire pit looks amazing! I hope that work is ok.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

Uneventful weeks are nice! I have some reviews of yours to read I think! Especially the Bookstore one. It's been too hot here this past week. I am like you and can't seem to lose any weight, it's been that way since my 40s it seems and now in my 50s it's impossible. I had hoped to lose a bit before my cruise next month, but at this rate I guess I'm just embracing my fat and going with it. Hope you have a good week!

That hydranga is going to be magnificent when it really gets going and St John's Wort is a solid favourite of mine - thank you for the flower pics, they have really cheered me up! Have a great week.
