WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Sam over on Taking on a World of Words.

The idea is pretty simple, every week you dedicate a post to the three W’s:

What are you currently reading?

What have you just finished reading?

What are you going to read next?

What are you currently reading?

I’m listening to another audiobook – who am I? lol….I’m listening to Something Wilder as an audiobook. I feel like I’m in a really weird reading mood. I’m reading every kind of book at the moment. 😅

Weekly Wrap Up | 4/9/23

Aloha friends!

Happy Passover and Happy Easter for those that celebrate! We celebrate both in our house but this year I am not doing an Easter Egg Hunt event because I’m tired lol…my kids will get mini egg hunts at their aunts place and at home. My daughter is gearing up to be in her first ballet recital, which has me stepping into the world of dance moms. And wow – I admire the time and dedication they put in. I know a few dance moms and how am I stressed with my daughter being in one dance for the recital? 😅 I guess I wouldn’t be as stressed if my husband was here to help but my daughter and I are excited about it. They are dancing to “I See the Light” from Tangled, which I adore! It made me want to tear up watching her rehearse in her costume.

Anyway my calendar is filled for April, May and June! Yikes.

So I just gotta get through this week. I hope you all have an amazing week!

Books I Read:

I had 2 DNF’s which feel like a record for me! lol…But The Last Tale of the Flower Bride was not for me. I love her other works but this one, not so much. And The Book Proposal was too all over the place for me and then there were 2 chapters I didn’t even think was finished? It felt rushed and unfinished and it was the actual dating and steamy scene between the characters. I was like…HUH?! It threw me off too much so I’m not going to review it. I have so many books to read and so little time that I think I’m doing better this year with DNF’ing books that aren’t working for me.

Shows/Movies I Watched:

The Super Mario Bros. (movie in the theater) – my kids and I LOVED this movie. The music is so good and everything was so nostalgic for me and my son is a gamer so he loved it all. It was my daughter’s first movie in a theater and she had fun with the reclining seats! Jack Black is amazing as Bowser. Watching the movie made me realize wow, I have spent a lot of time playing Mario games lol.

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!

What are you going to read next?

I got some books come in from Book Outlet (my last order was lost in the mail – boo!). I also got some online library books that became available to me so I’m trying to read those before my borrowing time is expired. Did you get any good books this week?

What are you currently reading?

Night of the Raven , Dawn of the Dove is an audiobook I’m listening to and I’m 63% done. I still have a hard time concentrating on details especially when my kids start making a ruckus while I’m listening lol. But at least I’m almost done with it!

What have you just finished reading?

The Last Tale of the Flower Bride is a DNF for me. I got to about 20% in and was just not in the mood! I don’t think I’ll pick it up again – it’s not for me.

Aloha friends!

It’s APRIL. What the….

My kids have only 8 more weeks of school, which means our trip to Okinawa is 8 1/2 weeks away. I got a dog/house sitter (yay!) and I’ve never had one who wasn’t family or a friend so I hope things go well with my dog and the sitter. We’ll be gone for 14 days. Today my kids Sunday school will having a Passover Seder for the kids so we’re doing that today. I don’t even have plans for Easter yet – why is there always too many things to do?

Anyway, I hope you all have a good week ahead!

Well here we are ladies and gents – the last week of March. How?! How are we near the Passover and Easter holidays? I feel like we are speeding towards my kids end of school and our Okinawa, Japan trip! This past week was getting back into the groove of my husband not being here again, and getting through the school week. The weather has been HOT here – it’s very humid. I did get some reading done which was nice.

Anyway I hope all of you have a good week ahead!

This week started off busy so I didn’t get to read much…or…I think I’m in a reading funk? Like, I’m not sure what I’m in the mood for. So I’m just trying to work through my arcs while I figure out this weird reading mood I’m in.

Aloha friends!

It was a nice week spent with my hubby and the kids had an awesome time with him home. Our dog also had a great time with him. My husband went home yesterday and today is my mom’s 70th birthday so we’re going to lunch with her. And then tomorrow is back to school for the kids. This means they are in the last quarter of the school year – craziness, so it’s back to the grind. But it also means it’s we will be going to Okinawa in 2 1/2 months! 😱 I have so much to do.

Anyway I hope all of you have a good week ahead!

We are almost done with Spring Break – boo! It’s been a busy week with my husband home, it’s so hard adjusting to jet lag and then immediately flying out again in 3 days. But we are having fun and making the most of it! Hope you all are having a good week!

Aloha friends!

My kids are on Spring Break and their dad is home for the week so yay – we are going to try and enjoy it the best we can. I’m hoping the weather holds up because the kids want to go to the pool and the beach. And since the hubby will be home, maybe I can get more reading time in while he entertains the kids. I have a few arcs to complete before April and we are already in mid-march so I have to get on top of it.

Anyway I hope all of you have a good week ahead!
