Weekly Wrap Up | 12/4/21

Aloha friends!

I’m going to try out this weekly wrap up again, I hope I can keep up with it this time. This week was filled with errands and finishing up my Christmas shopping. I still have to ship a few boxes but I am 80% done! My family and I celebrated Hanukkah this past week, so Happy Hanukkah to you all. 💙

I live in Hawaii and usually our days, even in the winter are high in the 80’s/low temps in the 70’s at night but on Friday there was a blizzard warning on the Big Island (basically the biggest island in the Hawaiian state island chain), on the summits which are above 11,000 feet. They get snow every year actually but it’s rare to get blizzard conditions before the rest of the continental USA does lol. So what an event it was when temperatures on Friday night dropped to 60 degrees, lowest was 59 degrees I think. Saturday morning, our high was only 74 degrees – I love it! I’m trying to enjoy this “winter weather” before it climbs back up into the high 80’s again because I know it will, probably in a day or two. 😅

And then the wordpress theme I was using for my blog and apparently got discontinued so my settings were all messed up! UGH…I was so frustrated trying to fix it and find another theme that I liked. For some reason the Widgets were giving me so much trouble. I have it working now and I have a new theme. I guess I like it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m too tired to try out all the themes.

Anyway that was my week – how was yours?

Blog Posts This Week:

Books I Read:

Currently Reading:

Shows I’ve Watched:

  • Castle For Christmas | Netflix ~ this was a cute holiday rom-com and set in Scotland which is just gorgeous.
  • Serendipity | Netflix ~ an oldie but goodie, perfect for the holidays. Watching this now that I’m older, I feel so bad for the ex-fiances in this movie! lol…Sarah should’ve just given him her number.
  • Annie Live! | NBC ~ my kids and I watched this together and they loved it!

Music I’ve Listened To:

  • An Evening with Silk Sonic by. Silk Sonic – such a good album, really gets me dancing and grooving!
  • Just Dance 2022 – does this count? My favorite track is Judas by Lady Gaga and anything Black Pink! It’s my daily cardio workout to keep my blood pressure down! 🤣 It works too.
  • 30 by Adele – perfect for when I’m in the kitchen baking something.
  • All Too Well (10 minute version) by Taylor Swift – while I was cleaning up my daughter’s room.

How was your week? Did you get a lot done? Watch anything good? Read any amazing books or books you hated? lol…Leave me a comment below!

  3. I read Not So Meet Cute this week too! What’d you think of it?! I’m also obsessed with all of Taylor’s vault tracks 😂 but I’m also really loving the Silk Sonic album! The new theme is really cute 😊 I do hate when widgets are frustrating though (which is like 99% of the time for me LOL)! Hope you have a great week ahead!

    1. I wish Hux loosened up a bit, but I guess that’s what Lottie was trying to do. At the 80% mark of the book I wasn’t sure why the book wasn’t already done – maybe some pacing issues? But I got a laugh out of all the pregnancy class scenes! It’s my second Meghan Quinn book and so far it’s been entertaining but usually a 3.5 for me. What’s your favorite Meghan Quinn book? I need a melancholy mood for Taylor! lol…I should play it today because it’s been storming in Hawaii. ☔️
