MY MOST LIKED BOOKSTAGRAM PHOTO
This was my first post to go over 50 likes in 12 hours, so I was hoping it would be my first photo to get 100 likes, but sadly it stalled out at 80 (actually 84 but four people unliked, I don't understand that, ha ha). So my lovely friends, if you are on IG and you haven't visited me yet... if you could give this photo a like, I would love you forever.


And while we are on the subject of Instagram... I finally made a separate Harry Potter account on IG so I wouldn't be drowning out my regular book blog posts anymore. I know some of you aren't that into HP, if at all, and I know how annoying it is when an Instagram account turns into something completely different from what you followed it for. So, if you love the Wizarding World give me a follow!


I will also apologize for my lack of blog hopping the last week, or so. Our WiFi router is on its last leg and my internet has been spotty at best. We know it's the WiFi because my son's internet for his computer has been fine. I need to plan for an extra expense next month. Plus, my volunteering started, but more about that in the next section.



I finally noshed on a meatless Impossible Burger via Burger King's Impossible Whopper. It was DELICIOUS! The texture was spot on, too. I hadn't eaten a Whopper since 1987 when I quit eating red meat (I have since quit eating poultry). In fact the last thing I did the day I quit was eat a Whopper. Impossible Burger will be in most grocery stores in the US by the end of the year. I cannot wait until I can make meatless meatloaf at home, and meatballs! Subway has an Impossible Meatball sub coming out soon. They are now working on meatless chicken nuggets.


My volunteer job at our urban center started on Tuesday and between being there, and working from home, I clocked in nearly 60 hours! I am hoping this week pulls back to about 40.


I don't want to complain, but... my legs are still being wonky off and on. Sometimes the pain is off the hook, so if I am being cranky on social media please understand. Heh heh. Just roll your eyes and then give me a cyber hug. No one knows what's wrong and the insurance company won't okay the MRI the neurologist wants. They will only cover one MRI every ten years and I had one seven years ago. This is why we need universal healthcare. So nice people like me can get better.


Baz started his FINAL SEMESTER of undergraduate studies! He is now looking at Masters programs. Wetlands preservation and sustainable communities are at the top of the list. He is far away from his original major of Biochemistry, but he's happiest being outdoors. Final major... Environmental Biology.

They have a large wetland and nature preserve right on campus!


On August 21st 2010 I smoked my last cigarette! Remember how I was saying I quit eating red meat 32 years ago? It's funny... I never crave a cigarette, but I still crave steak!
