Thought of the day
And, for those of you keeping score at home, only 232 shopping days are left until Christmas.
I had a weird "Mandela Effect" moment this week—when I saw the news about Ted Turner passing, I could have sworn he died years ago. Apparently, my brain is already living in the future.
Speaking of the past, it’s been a month since I finished my 12-week transformation. I’m happy to report I’m still holding steady. I’ve kept the weight off, the macros are on point, and I haven't surrendered to a cinnamon roll binge yet. My "vulnerable" post with the before-and-afters was my most-viewed in April, so thanks for the support throughout last month that helped me with my blogging efforts.
Where do you guys stand on cruises? I was never a fan, and the recent news has basically cemented the fact that you will never see me on a giant floating Petri dish
It's been a minute, but here are the dog collars for May:
The damage report: two bags of trash, a treat bag, a foam cup of Coke Zero, and—the crown jewel—an entire Costco bag of frozen chicken breasts. I don't own bassets; I am owned by them, and right now, my Norwegian couch hippo is the boss of this house.
I will keep moving forward.
Hahahaha
ReplyDeleteHarley, a basset that let me live with him had a similar record. The crowning jewel? Almost ruining a Saturday party because he ate two huge pizzas intended to feed humans.
And I’ve never been on a cruise and have no plans to be in one. Now less than ever. Cankles and his government dispersed the people in charge of keeping the cruises sanitary, btw.
And yay for not giving in to cinnamon rolls. Love those.
XOXO
I've only ever been on one cruise, to French Polynesia where the water is so shallow that only a VERY small cruise ship (300-ish people size) can get close to any of the islands. It was great, but I don't know if I'd enjoy a cruise on one of those HUGE floating hotel cruise ships. But yes, any cruise is a floating petri dish and what I learned is -- take your own cold/flu/diarrhea medication with you as a precaution because cruise ships typically DO NOT sell any on board. They want to maintain an illusion that everything is always perfect on a cruising vacation.
ReplyDeleteMy husband has always refused to ever get on a ship and every time one of these news reports comes out, I always get the 'I told you so' lecture. Guess we'll never be going to Alaska!
ReplyDeleteLucy is so adorable, despite her 'issues.' Happy Mother's Day to your wife!
Aww poor pup.
ReplyDeleteI didn't like cruises before all this happened and wouldn't have gone on one anyway. Better stock up on toilet paper before the crazies buy it all up again.
