Hi! 🙂

I haven’t updated since Friday, so I figured I would do a random update, post some pictures, and small Goodwill book haul. That all sounds fun! 😛

+ I had this childhood best friend and we lost contact for at least 7 years. I randomly found her on Pinterest last year…how crazy right? I was literally scrolling through the “everything” section to pin some random stuff and I seen her name and picture! Totally random, but totally awesome! We have been talking through Pinterest and texting ever since. I also got her and her boyfriend obsessed with Doctor Who 😛

Anyway onto the point of mentioning her, so we decided to plan a Disney and Universal Studios trip in December together! She lives close by Disney and recently bought a house, so she said my boyfriend and I can stay with her and that saves on hotel costs! I am totally excited about this and it’ll be the first time seeing each other in 11-12 years!! Super stoked! 🙂

+ And speaking of Disney! I was watching Bella while my cousin took her family to Disney. She brought me back a book! She knows I love books and I’m excited about this book. Picture and link to Goodreads below!

Kingdom Keepers: Disney After Dark by Ridley Pearson
It’s a series, so that’s cool! I’ve never heard of the series, but this book sounds interesting.

+ Today my cousin picked up Bella, but before doing that we went to get froyo and walked around the beach for an hour. That was pretty fun. Here’s a couple pictures from that.

Attempting to build a sand castle with Trace. That’s my cousin’s son. & then a view from the parking garage of the beach. I live so close to the beach that I could walk there if I really wanted to.

+ I spent three hours on the phone with Dell and they couldn’t fix my computer. The restart didn’t work. So now they have to send me a program to manually do it. sigh.

+ Here is my random book haul from Goodwill. These only cost me like $11 dollars for them all. I’ve really been trying hard not to spend so much money on books over the next few months, especially now if I want this Disney trip to happen. I didn’t find too many books, but here are the ones that I did find.

100 Cupboards by N.D. Wilson
Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs
The Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by H. Paul Jeffers
Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert
Forgotten by Cat Patrick
What We Saw At Night by Jacquelyn Mitchard

Here are the book covers from Goodreads too. My picture doesn’t really show them that well. Bad lighting.

+ Last, but not least, here are just some random pictures of my furbabies & bookish things. 🙂 FYI: Sorry if you follow me on Instagram..you’re seeing a lot of these again.

So I wrote about how I was in this reading slump on Friday, but I think it was possibly just the fact that Paper Towns is just a boring book. I decided to buy Game and OMG…it’s amazing and everything I ever hoped for and I’m 200 pages in and it’s a little over 500 – that means so much more amazing things to come! The I Hunt Killers series looks like it’s moving up to the top of my list of favorites! There is all these novellas that I eventually want to get! & there’s Bella on her last night with us.

My boys. Dax being cuddly for the first time in forever. & ColbyJack. They are loners and I mean, Dax will lay on the floor away from you and ColbyJack will lay in the closet away from you. No contact unless they want something.
