Target Tuesday: Target Haul (and kind of a fail)

Alright so I ordered from Target once again! This might not be that exciting because it's 3 things I've talked about in my Book Wish List and then 2 jewelry things- one didn't work out... so let's talk about it. 

Okay... so there were 2 fails kinda sort of I guess. One was probably just because of Covid 19 shipping processes... but Target always offers something where you could have everything ship in the fewest packages possible. This still shipped in 3 of 4 packages. I think 2 of the books came together, one of the books came in another package and the jewelry pieces shipped separately... or maybe the earrings were in with the book... let me double check actually... Yes it was 4 packages. So... I still saved the dollar because you get a dollar off if you chose that- but it came in 4 packages still. I think it's great that they offer it I'm glad not everything was in a different package. But still. 

So the earrings were kind of the fail. I like these earrings but they aren't something I recommend... I don't really think they're made that well and if I had seen them in person I don't think I would have bought them. 


So these are tiny hoops from Universal Thread and if you can see the way it clips in... its pretty loose so it does not stay in all that well. I would not wear it to work because if I wear a headset- this will just fall right off. One Pair I have is really loose- it came in a 3 pack... so I have at least 2 pairs I think that will work most of the time but... I'm not expecting these to be very long. 


So the Necklace I got is from A New Day- this is a horrible picture of it but... it's a mixed metal necklace with different little rings on it I guess. I really like how it looks. It looks different in real life than what I was expecting and I kind of like it more. It's just cute and it adds something interesting to an outfit. 

So now for the three books that I got! 

First off: I did get In Five Years by Rebecca Serle because I was really curious about it from the description. A girl is basically at like what would probably be considered the high point of her life- she's engaged to a man she loves, she's getting a promotion... then she sees 5 years later and she's starting a totally different job and she's with a different man and... it just sounds interesting. 

I also got You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hoagle. This one has a couple about to get married and they're both trying to get the other person to end the engagement so that they don't have to pay for everything... and it sounds like they see why they fell in love with each other in the first place. It sounded funny. 

And then I have Not The Girl You Marry by Andie J Christopher. This is an updated and genderswapped "How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days" so he's acting like a crazy person and she's trying to stay with him. It sounded cute and I loved this movie so I wanted to read a book like it. 

And that is it! Hope you guys like it!

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...
