Weekly Wrap Up | 7/3/22

Aloha friends!

It’s been such a fun and busy weekend for my family. My sister and mom came to sleep over at my house since my sister’s husband and her sons went to Los Angeles for the weekend! We went to the pool, and got some lunch at the mall. My dog had 2 more extra people to love on – he LOVES his grandma and aunty. 😅 My daughter monopolized her aunt’s time which was cute but she cried when they left the next day. 🥺

I cannot believe it’s July – this means I have to go back to school shopping. 😩 My kids start school on August 1st. My daughter finally starts Kindergarten and wow…that means it will be just me and the dog alone in the house for 5 hours. I don’t know how to act! lol…

Shows/Movies I Watched:

• Sing 2 (Netflix)– had some movie time with my daughter, this was cute and loved all the music.
• Ron’s Gone Wrong (Disney+) – my son wanted to do movie time with us too and the kids decided on this one. We loved it!
• Inside Out (Disney+) – my son wanted to watch this movie again – first time he saw it, he was younger and it made him too sad and he couldn’t watch the whole thing. He saw it on the last day of 3rd grade and it resonated with him more and he wanted to watch it again. My daughter was too scared of the emotional scenes so it was my son and I who wanted the whole thing.
• Stranger Things 4 Pt. 2 (Netflix) – the last episode is just so EPIC! That scene when Eddie plays Master of Puppets by Metallica had me transported to my teenhood when I was a big Metallica fan. Like they scared me but their music was so good. And my other favorite part was when they were killing or hurting Vecna and his “hive mind”. So many heroes but it was heart-wrenching too. I hope season 5 comes out next year. I love this show!

Games I Played:

• My Singing Monsters
• Wii Sports – just to get moving – doesn’t make me move much really lol…I need to start up Just Dance again to get my cardio in. I stopped when I got back from Vegas and had covid. And haven’t done it since which is mad so new month, new fitness goals!

How was your week? Did you get a lot done? Watch anything good? Read any amazing books or books you didn’t finish? What are you reading?…Leave me a comment below!
