Weekly Wrap Up Thanksgiving Edition: 11/27/16



Favorites 
I honestly don't remember my favorites... this week was kind of a blur... so let's just kinda wing it?

The Middle- I thought that this weeks episode of The Middle was good. It was sad... but good. I was surprised that they kind of "went there" with the Axl and April story... but I liked it!

Charlie Brown Thanksgiving- I love this! It's so cute to see Snoopy cooking up "Thanksgiving dinner." I love it!

Simply Christmas by Leslie Odom, Jr.- I listened to this while cleaning the bathroom. Really good! Definitely like it a lot!

Life Scribbles
-Monday I went grocery shopping with my Mom at a place called Delicious Orchards... I think they don't usually open on Mondays... but they're pretty crazy the Monday before Thanksgiving... and yeah. They were packed. We also went to Target and some other grocery stores. I ate Onion Soup... it was a good day. 
-Tuesday I think I ate food again... lol.
-Wednesday I helped my mom clean and chop and we had dinner out and it was yummy.
-Thursday was Thanksgiving.
-Anddddd Friday and Saturday I got sick. 

TV Highlights 
Other than what I already mentioned... Colbert and Life in Pieces... which I'm starting to like a lot! 
Noteworthy Snacks 

News and World Events 
Kanye West showed up hours late to his concert, played about 3 songs and went on a 15 minute rant about Jay Z and Beyonce hiring people to kill him... and then checked into a hospital for exhaustion. His tour dates have been cancelled and I believe people are getting refunds already... so... yeah...

Speaking of music: The AMAs were on! Lots of great performances, I was super impressed with Shawn Mendes... I don't know why I wasn't expecting him to be good... but he was really good. Green Day too. Selena Gomez gave a really great speech and I'm proud of her. She's someone I thought maybe wasn't the swiftest cat in the wild... but she seemed very smart, mature and together.

Mike Pence said that he didn't take offense to the cast of Hamilton speaking their mind... Revolutionary!


The Cars 3 trailer was released... this doesn't seem like a big deal if you've seen Cars 2... but trust me... watch the trailer! It seems like this is going to be the dark side of Pixar that we haven't really seen in the Cars movies... I'll link it in the clickables. 

Thoughts 
Thanksgiving and the Holidays are always kind of unpredictable. A few years ago I was waking up early to go shopping on Black Friday, then I was working it, last year I was getting my Bridesmaid dress for my sisters wedding and this year I was sick and slept through most of it... you can never tell what will happen... so just try to enjoy what you can and take care of yourself.

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
