Oof – there are a lot of pictures this week (a lot of pictures of ME – sorry!). Let’s just dive in.
Sunday, October 24th
Dr. M & I were driving home & saw a couple of sundogs. These aren’t the best photos of them, but they still make me happy.
I was heading out to walk with my cousin. I struggled so mightily to put on my “sports bra” that I got 77 steps on my Fitbit. Hahaha!
This is NOT an attractive photo, but this Amy’s Organic meal is DELICIOUS (Palak Paneer).
I usually take my lunch hour in my office & it finally occurred to me to create a little nest so I’m more comfortable while I’m scrolling Instagram on my iPad. (Note: being a hermit during lunch is what this introvert needs so she can interact gracefully with employees the rest of the day.)
Got my flu shot – this year’s bandage was Scooby & the Gang!
The 1970s was our team’s theme this year. I thought we did pretty well!

Weird food of the week – apple with peanut butter & pomegranate seeds. Yum!
What a busy and fun time!
ReplyDeleteIt was!
DeleteI'm just crazy about those TRex costumes. They are so fun! For sure I'd be dancing and jumping around in one, too.
ReplyDeleteYour costume for the theme was good, too. I remember dressing up as a hippie for Halloween one year in college. I had a leather vest with fringe down to my knees that my grandmother had made for my sister in the 70s. I had long, long hair and I wore a headband, too.
Apples and peanut butter are my favourite lunch. I'm not a fan of pomegranate seeds. Too much seed, not enough fruit.
I like pomegranate seeds when they're nice & tart, and explode a little bit in your mouth. But they are VERY WORKY!
DeleteWell, this Houstonian would prefer the Astros to win, but I'm with you on just wanting it to be over, already, so I can stop fussing over it. I'm not really a baseball fan, but once we make one of these 'big events,' I'm like everyone else: checking the score and grumping about the bad calls!
ReplyDeleteI laughed at your 70's attire. If I'd just seen the photo, I would have said you were "doing" the 60s. The 70s -- to my mind -- are disco.
I'm sure you were happy about last night's game. I on the other hand, had to eat some Tums. Ha! Well, it will be over this week no matter what.
DeleteI wondered about whether I was representing the sixties, but I had friends who said they wore similar attire in the early 70s. Whether that's right or not, I am NOT a disco queen so I was definitely not going in that direction. Ha!
Certainly was an interesting and fun sounding week at your part of the universe.
ReplyDeleteYes it was!
DeleteAstros for the win so off to Houston. And peanut butter, apples, and pomegranate is not weird. Try harder.
ReplyDeleteHmmm - what can I eat to impress Ellen, but that I will still actually like...
DeleteYour '70s crowd looks pretty authentic, with the exception of that guy on the left, who looks like your chaperone!
ReplyDeleteLove the Scooby Band-Aid!
I wish I had my own office. I usually retreat to my boss's office at lunch, but of course she's in there too, so it's not really "alone" time. (But better than eating at the circulation desk or in the cafeteria.)
I love having my own office! I've been fortunate that I've had one for most of my work life.
DeleteGood for you in your Halloween costumes! And my sympathies on last night's disaster. I've been rooting for the Braves in this Series though I really am tired of the tomahawk chant. Good luck Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteSo, so tired of that stupid chant! Would love to see the organization step up in the off season and change things up. I'm kind of okay with Braves, but the tomahawk and chant have GOT to go. Don't see it happening, but I can dream. I'm a third generation fan...hard not to pull for my family's team. But the fans make me sad.
DeleteMike kept turning the sound off when they were doing the chop.
DeleteCute 70's outfit!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteAlways a good sport you are, donning one of those TRex costumes. They are definitely good for entertainment. What a clever trunk!
