What I've Been Up To Lately - I



I think it should just be a thing where I just start doing an update series since I don't blog much on a daily basis, which I really do want to change. I know I say that often, but it's true. I always have in the back of my mind on that I should be writing a blog post, and how I wish I would keep up with it and be posting on a daily basis. The problem is coming up with ideas on what to post about, which is why I do so many reviews. Sometimes it seems easier to just pick something like a book, movie, or food that I can just type up a review and pretty much have an endless supply of.

Unfortuanatlly I don't have any ravishing news like that I won the lottery, or got a super amazing tan-our town has turned into Seattle with all this rain!- or, you know,  finally've gotten that dog I've always wanted.

My plans of going on vacation that I've been so badly wanting to do this past year has fallen through -grr!-, but hopefully it'll get makin' up someway or another. The year ain't over yet!

So this is been what's new.





Chick-fil-a's new -limited- Peach Milkshake. Crazy good! Chick-fil-a honestly has THEE BEST milkshakes I've ever had. I just wish they weren't so caloric!






New sunglasses. They remind me of Eric Church and his Springsteen video. (The main reason I'd gotten them. Also, when you're driving, and you're too short for the sun visor to block the sun, sunglasses are a must.) You can get them here.






The movies. How I've missed going to the movies! This one was a pain in the butt to go to as well! The movie theater closest to us was playing this, me and my Dad got in the car, headed to the theater, and it turns out they had switched the Tomorrowland showings for that day to a marathon of some old B&W movie which I can't remember what it was-but they still had on their board/website they were showing Tomorrowland...??? So, we called my mom to call and check the showing for a different theater, finding out the next showing was in about 20 minutes, made our way there, got the tickets, popcorn, drinks just to find out the show wasn't going to play for ANOTHER hour, after the website supposedly said it was playing in just a few minutes.
My Dad wasn't very happy about it, the guy offered to let us exchange our tickets for a different movie but we decided to wait, and we talked about Age of Ultron (yes, I'm still very much obsessed), and stories of my Dad and his brother when they were younger instead, it was very nice.
We even got ice cream after too, I really wanted ice cream with sprinkles (I know, such a two year old-it's literally been years since I've had ice cream, or sprinkles. Thank. You.) however it was great, my stomach did not appreciate it once so ever. Lactose intolerance? Very likely. (Fyi, dairy has been an issue since the day I was born, I promise I'm not self-diagnosing myself with issues when little things come up.)
All in all, it was a great trip-and movie! Tim McGraw actually plays in it, George Clooney was amazing of course. It was a great movie. Different than what I had expected it to be like, but it was really good.
Side note; Did anyone else not know he played on Roseanne? I just found that out a few weeks ago after watching it on Netflix. He plays Booker.



Speaking of Booker. Books. I'm just bookin' it up lately (I'm a Biblophile). I think I've gotten about a dozen new books this past month (okay, maybe, like, six.). My parents were so sweet and picked me up The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook, a puzzle book, and The Princess Within for Teens by Serita Ann Jakes when they were out. I have yet to read/try/attempt these, but I'm very excited to!

You can follow me on my Instagram if you'd like, I'm usually posting on there every couple days[:

What're y'all up to lately??
