[Insert Song Title Here]

I made it more than half way through the year before drawing a blank on a title.  Better than I expected.  (Who knew the sideways carets would blank out my "blank" title?  I should have.)

The Good Stuff:
  • We got the lawn mower repaired for $15.  Not bad.
  • I got the lawn mowed
  • We got rain 
  • I did a beta read on a book for a complete stranger.  I'll be sending out the critique tomorrow (after I've had a chance to review it to make sure I'm not too harsh anywhere but still getting the point across)
  • I rode the recumbent bike and got it fully reassembled.  I believe the problem is a bolt on the right hand pedal crank that self-loosens.  I have some Loc-Tite around here somewhere.  I'll find it and apply it to the threads of the bolt and re-secure it.
  • I've been eating more fresh fruit
The Not So Good Stuff:
  • No work on PBOTL this week.
  • Productivity is in the tank for most everything (except riding the lawn mower)
  • I think I have a continuous hot flash going on.  Is that possible?
  • You've seen the hammer throw in the Olympics?  I think the cats are practicing for it with their water tower.  In fact, tonight I (jokingly) accused Mr L of kicking it over in the morning just so I'd have to mop up a half gallon or more of water when I come downstairs.
The Week Ahead:
  • Find Loc-Tite and get the recumbent bike pedal mended
  • Work on PBOTL
  • Get the downstairs furnace filters changed out
  • Replace burned out light bulbs (I think there are two or three to take care of)
  • Get the menu planned and grocery lists created.

I pick Atlantic Avenue for the song title. No reason. It's just the song that popped into my head. Looks like you had a pretty good week, although I totally get the productivity thing.

Not sure if I know Atlantic Avenue, but I do know Electric Avenue. Don't think you're a fan of 80's pseudo reggae, tho. ;)

Glad your repairs are coming in cheap and that you're getting mowing finished. I'm almost jealous! (no mowing here for a month or so) {{hugs}

Oh, yup, that's the one I meant. I'm not really a fan of the genre, but it's catchy and I like lots of different kinds of music.
