I've been playing this app called Neko Atsume. It's just a silly app that allows you to be a Cat Lady without the cats.
READING:
I bumped up my Goodreads challenge to 30 books but this month has been a pretty slow month for reading because I've been more tired than normal. Naps are mah friend. But I did finish Wildflower which I enjoyed. Drew Barrymore was my idol in high school so I loved reading her mini stories from her wild phases and also stories from her adventures of being a mother. I could totally hear her voice in my head while I was reading too, haha.I also finished Sleep Donations which was a post apocalyptic book where chronic insomnia has become an epidemic infecting thousands of people, some cases eventually ending up in death. However there's a treatment, dream infusion, where people can donate their sleep/dreams to sufferers of chronic insomnia to help with the disorder. It goes further into the story of how they found a miracle baby who produces the most purest dreams that has been curing people of their chronic insomnia while at the same time, a man who has been spreading this horrible viral nightmare through donating his sleep where people are so afraid of it, some would rather die of sleeplessness. That's pretty much the gist of it but I thought it was a pretty interesting read.
I am currently reading are Figment (Insanity #2).
EATING:
Better. After my doctor's appointment, she said I was gaining a little too much weight and I told her probably because I developed this craving and obsession with baking cookies. So she said, "Well, you know what to cut out of your diet then!' I've been pretty good, though. I haven't baked a single morsel. But we just got some boxes of Girl Scout cookies since Karli started Girl Scouts. I've been good with one or two so far, but after these I'll be serious. It's just so crazy because before this pregnancy, I was never about the sweets. That was Andrew's department and mine was the savory department. I would take up a corndog over ice cream any day.THINKING ABOUT:
Death. My Uncle Eric passed away last week and I feel like I just saw him at his house, looking healthy and happy. He just celebrated his 25th wedding year anniversary and invited everyone to his a huge party at his house. He was a very good man who always put himself before others. His funeral is going to be huge, I can tell. My Mom said he collapsed a couple weeks ago on a Thursday, ended up in the hospital for a couple days and passed away. Losing people you love is the worst feeling in the world, especially when it was unexpected. RIP Uncle Eric.
LOOKING FORWARD TO:
The baby shower. I can't wait to be surrounded by friends and family to shower this little girl with love! I am also looking forward to being able to cut and paint my toe nails on my own haha. This belly is getting HUGE!
ENJOYING:
Youtube vloggers. I think I am enjoying these more than actual blogs. Do people read blogs anymore? I used to be obsessed with blogs but now I feel like they're all the same and all regurgitating the same thing with a different flair. I feel like I enjoy their personalities more on Instagram/Snapchat. I just love Snapchat, haha. I like the realness and temporariness of it. Not everyone looks filtered, photoshop and studio arranged. But yeah, back to bloggers I used to enjoy. I feel like the individuality and originality are definitely lacking in their posts. I think I can genuinely say there are a couple I feel that are still worth reading and there are a handful that I like to visit, but for the pictures alone.
LOVING:
Feeling baby girl kicks and movement. She is a such an active baby and as she's growing her kicks are getting more powerful and rhythmic. I get worried when I don't feel her moving. In the morning weekends when Andrew gets to sleep in, he likes to put his hand on my belly and she'll kick him where ever his hand lays. She makes me laugh so much and brings me so much happiness to me already.
And that's about it! I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was too short, that's for sure!

I'm so sorry to hear about your uncle. It seems like he was loved by many and I'm sorry they all have to grieve his passing, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks girl, he was :)
