<— HAPPY MONDAY!! I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A GREAT WEEKEND!! HOLY MOLY LOOK what just went live and is #1 ON ALL of AMAZON KINDLE right now!!!
Three things:
1.) I spent a very quiet weekend just doing my thing each day (as my husband had to work all weekend). I missed him, but all that extra time was focused on things I’ve been needing to do and putting off (since weekends are our time to go do adventures and explore our time off together), and so I still kept super busy.
2.) I’m stuck on not having any movies I’m dying to watch. Not in the theaters, not on my Prime “rent now” section. That rarely happens, and after a whole fall & winter of awesome-sounding horror movies in theaters that I’ve since devoured, I’m… movieless. What have you watched lately that I MUST watch? Horror OR otherwise. What’s awesome that I’m missing out on?

3.) I continue on my quest of sorting and organizing my closet, paring things down so that I can see what I truly love. To be honest, I obviously a clothing addiction and I LOVE EVERYTHING. So… sorting what stays and what goes is a long process for me, and I’ve been breaking it up into categories. I haven’t reached my shoes yet. Eeeeeeeek!! Here’s the latest thing I just put up on Poshmark that I LOVE!! My London Fog trench coat that does fit me perfectly. I guess I could have one that’s a bit smaller now. However I have a black one (Rag & Bone and it was handmade!!) so I’m letting this one go. Check it out OR check out my whole Poshmark closet and see what else I’m parting with.

1. Magnolia May finally has a preorder set up and a cover!! I feel like I’m finally making progress!
2. I only have 2.5 weeks till my first airbnb guest this year and I’m soooo panicking!
3. I really want to go see Project Hail Mary but I don’t think it’s going to happen. I’ll just have to turn it up really loud on the TV when it comes out.
I bet your Airbnb guest goes swimmingly. I imagine you’re an awesome host! Why do you have to turn on the TV really loud for Hail Mary? And Magnolia May! I’m SO excited for you!! The cover is gorgeous!!
Thank you!
I just feel like it’s something to see in the theater so I was thinking cranking it up might give that experience a little!
Gotcha! My Mom listened to the audiobook recently and saw the movie after. She said it was really good and definitely recommends listening to the book also.
I need to do that. I tried reading it but couldn’t get through it. I loved The Martian, but this one was very different. I was told audio is the way to go.
o. Long time no see! Or, speak? Today is new release Tuesday and I’m clicking Rites of the Starling by Devney Perry. I LOVED Shield of Sparrows and couldn’t wait to get my hands on this as it left off with a huge cliffy. I got 2 months of kindle unlimited to finish my Emma M. Lion series on the cheap and bonus! It’s included also.
I don’t adventure much anymore. My husband works every weekend and usually holidays as well. And my daughter anymore also. But, I need to plan something and get out. I’m known to drive 3 hours one way for the cutest little bookshop, but I think the kids may possibly get sick of it and want something new. We spend way too much money at bookstores also. We’ve hiked nearly everything there is to here (there isn’t much). I don’t love waterparks and theme parks. We’ve done the zoo enough. I just don’t know what else there is.
2. I don’t watch much tv or movies anymore. I don’t get too excited by what’s out there either. I do love all the books that are being made into movies/shows! But, I don’t always watch them as when they come out I either haven’t read it first or I’m hesitant to be disappointed. I loved People We Meet on Vacation though. I’m waiting for Hail Mary to listen to the audiobook first. I’ve found I really love tandem reading. Where I listen and follow along with the book visually also. It helps me keep track easier. And some are so well done, I am there! (Emma M Lion). * I did binge Schitt’s Creek over the winter and am obsessed. The creator, Dan Levy, has a show coming to Netflix in a couple days. Something murdery/comedy, that looks so fun, I WILL be watching! I also did one on Netflix with Ted Danson. He’s like a private eye and it’s funny and heartwarming. And short and comforting.
3. I did a big closet clean out and home in general months ago. I was in an absolute frenzy. I haven’t touched my t shirt drawers though. I keep waiting to lose weight so I can fit back into things, but as it’s been forever years, I finally gave in and chucked a ton. I might exercise today though. I might. 😂
