It got busy this week! Lots going on at home, work, and otherwise as well. Life My daughter's school decided to close on Friday, along with several other schools in the area, with some being closed from Thursday. Not enough staff. The school had been on a mask mandate since the beginning of the pandemic, dropping it only for one week when the pandemic had appeared to have stabilized last year. And yet, they dropped the mandate completely at the beginning of this year, when cases were exponentially rising, only to bring it back again starting next week. I've gone from being very annoyed to angry to feeling fatigue in these first two weeks already. I won't lie - we all mask around here and try to avoid going where we don't have a need to be in, and still, we are not taking anything close to the extreme precaution we all took at the beginning of the pandemic. I cannot and don't want to keep my kids home - I have at least that much faith in the schools' precautions
As the title says, I just got my new car! *drumroll please* It's a white 2007 Honda Accord, and I'm just relishing driving the huge sedan! I don't have any pictures yet, so I'll let you google if you wish. ;-)
So, my last week was spent almost entirely on finishing the car business - you know, the loans and the paperwork, and the insurance, etc. And after getting the car - inspection, registration, etc. And the malls for a fun ride. LOL! You can see I am excited, because this is my first car, so it feels great!
I had a hectic week basically. Today's my only weekend - but hopefully this means my very busy days are over.
As I said last week, I'm doing the Game On! Diet, which isn't going too well for me, because I've always thought my diet was healthy - and I even lost weight with that. But now, I'm expected to tighten it further? I somehow don't see myself succeeding in that, but like I said, I'll use this as an opportunity to get to know my meals even more intimately. Other than that, the game is going decent - not excellent, because I get lazy every once in a while.
Off to read some book now - Happy reading and happy blogging!

Don't get down on yourself about the Game On Diet. Life shouldn't be about "should-ing" ourselves
Picture please ;)
All the best

Helen, that's something I strongly believe in. No more SHOULDs! Just respect the body but love life too.
Juju, lol, I'll post one soon as I take one.
Jude, thank you so much!
Ash, it feels so great to have a car finally!
Please don't say you won't succeed that is totally accepting failure, optimism babe.
BTW - I linked you to my RIP Challenge post and realised you had linked me from Creepers, I didn't realise :-)
