What I'm Reminiscing About...

My Summer trips to NY to visit my family. Sadly, I wasn't able to go up this Summer.

What I'm Loving...

Spending time with my mom, reading, listening to country music, texting/Facetiming with friends, watching Youtube.

What I've Been Up To...

I had surgery on the 4th so I've just been taking it easy. I've been doing a ton of reading.

What I'm Dreading...

Some things I don't want to talk about right now.

What I'm Working On...

Filming videos for my Youtube channel.

What I'm Excited About...

I haven't felt the original pain (that I've had for 3 and half years) after my surgery. I'm still having some pain from the incision site and the surgery itself but I'm focusing on getting better each day. I started physical therapy today.

What I'm Watching/Reading...

Watching: Baseball, movies, Chrisley Knows Best, Chicago PD (as always). I also watched Sweet Magnolias for the second time. I'm obsessed with that show.
Reading: I will be finishing reading What You Wish For -Katherine Center today.

What I'm Listening To...

Country music, especially lots of Sam Hunt.

What I'm Wearing...

I've been wearing dresses and nightgowns since my surgery.

What I'm Doing This Weekend...

I don't have any plans.

What I'm Looking Forward To Next Month...

ALL THINGS FALL! Also, it will be 11 years that I've had my cat Davey.

What Else Is New...

I think I covered everything.

Books Read in February 2022

  The Code For Love & Heartbreak -Jillian Cantor I saw this book on sale for $10 and thought it looked interesting. It was a cute story line. A little repetitive at places but overall I enjoyed it. I rated it 3 stars on the Goodreads website. When Less Becomes More -Emily Ley I love Emily Ley's books and I had the pleasure of meeting her at one of the Wild For Planners Go Wild Planner conferences. She is super sweet! I really enjoy her personal development books. I rated this book 3 stars. Heartstopper (Volume 4) -Alice Oseman I love this series so much. I love graphic novels and I really wish my library had more of them. I rated this book 4 stars. Bad Moms -Nora McInerny I like this movie (and the sequel A Bad Mom's Christmas) and I saw this at a discount store and I had no idea it was made into a novel. I enjoyed it. It wasn't my favorite book ever since I knew everything that happened since it stuck very close to the movie. I rated it 3 stars. Life, Unscheduled -K...

Books Read in January 2022

  Heartstopper (Volume 3) -Alice Oseman While I was back home visiting my family for Christmas, I went to the mall with my dad and my nephews but I've been dealing with some health issues and my pain was really bad that day (and the mall was super crowded) so I ended up sitting in a chair at Barnes & Noble and reading the first two volumes of the Heartstopper series while they were shopping. I like this series. I love graphic novels but my library system doesn't have a lot of the ones I want to read and I will not buy graphic novels because I read them in a day. I rated this book 3 stars. Blame It On The Mistletoe -Beth Garrod I absolutely adored and loved this book so much. The characters, the plot, the setting... I loved it all. I rated this book 5 stars. Adequate Yearly Progress -Roxanna Elden I did not enjoy this book at all. I rated it 1 star. All I Want For Christmas -Wendy Loggia This is another super cute Christmas novel. I wasn't able to get to all of the Chr...

Books Read In December 2021 & End of Year Book Survey

  In December, I read 6 books. The first three books I read are apart of a series. The series is called Moose Springs, Alaska by Sarah Morgenthaler. I rated all three of these books 3 stars on the Goodreads website. This was a super cute series. I really enjoyed these books. They were fun, light reads. I think the fourth book in the series comes out in 2021. Book 1: The Tourist Attraction Book 2: Mistletoe & Mr. Right Book 3: Enjoy The View The Holiday Switch -Tif Marcelo I loved this book so much. It was such a cute, fun, and festive read. This is on my list of my favorite books I've read this year. I rated this book 4 stars. The last two books I read this month are also apart of a series. I rated both of them 3 stars. Heartstopper (Volume 1) & Heartstopper (Volume 2) -Alice Oseman Top 10 Favorite Books of the Year: 1.       Malibu Rising –Taylor Jenkins Reid 2.               ...
