What's Up Wednesday: April Edition



What We’re Eating This Week…
Monday: Leftovers from Easter (ham, twice baked potatoes, veggies)
Tuesday: Pasta with clams and a white wine sauce
Wednesday: Cobb salad with blackened shrimp (ate out)
I'm not sure about the rest of the week.

What I’m Reminiscing About…
My trips to NY to see my family. I grew up in NY and moved down South when I was 16 ½. I have been taking trips back to visit family ever since moving down here. While I was in H.S. and college and before I started working, I was able to visit a lot more often. Nowadays, I don’t get to go back to visit nearly as often but I always cherish the times I do get to go back and visit and I always look back fondly on all of the memories made during my trips back.

What I’m Loving…
Visits from family, quality time with my nephews & niece, time with friends.

What I’ve Been Up To…
In the beginning of the month, I had lunch with my friend L and then later that night had dinner with my friend A and we went to a few stores. On the 13th, I went out to dinner with my friend L and we went to Target & TJ Maxx. I had two visits from family during this month and it was so great to spend quality time with my siblings, nephews, and niece.

What I’m Dreading…
Bills. All of these doctor appointments to try and figure out the pain in my hip and back have been adding up and it has not been pretty on my bank account.

What I’m Working On…
A list of upcoming Youtube videos and blog posts I want to film/post.

What I’m Excited About…
Family visits, an upcoming trip.

What I’m Watching/Reading…
Watching: My regular TV shows, baseball, the NBA playoffs (Go 76er’s), and old episodes of Beverly Hills 90210
Reading: Nothing at the moment. I didn’t do well with my reading this month. I only read one book.

What I’m Listening To…
Lots of country music, including Kenny Chesney, Brett Young & more.

What I’m Wearing…
T-shirts & jeans/leggings when I’m out, comfy clothes & pajamas when I’m home.

What I’m Doing This Weekend…
I'm not sure yet.

What I’m Looking Forward To Next Month…

I have a trip planned with my mom. I’m also excited for Mother’s Day and birthdays: my niece M, some of my friends and my friend’s son have birthdays in May.  Other things I'm excited for: NBA playoffs, baseball.

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.               ...
