A Nice Bowl of NOPE

1.  I am sooooo excited for the usual Saturday after Black Friday shopping trip with Evan's mom and aunt this year.  I have been in such a shopping mood the past few weeks which also leads to the fact that I have been receiving extra hours at work so I have some extra cash so I don't have to feel guilty if I splurge.  Which, let's be honest, I never splurge.

2. I FINALLY HAVE A DAY OFF TODAY.  It has felt so great to just have a lazy day.  In fact, I only left the house to go to the bank.  Otherwise, I wouldn't have left the house.  I'm kind of in the mood to clean a bit but it's going on 9 and I want to knock out some more of the book I'm currently reading (Confessions of a Shopaholic) so that way I can definitely finish it sometime tomorrow and begin the next book in the series.

3.  Speaking of books, I have realized my book problem.  I buy books, don't read them, and instead keep borrowing books from the library.  So my solution has been found and has been working out so well so far.  I made a list of all of the books that I own that I haven't read or haven't read in quite a long time as well as all of the books that I want to read that I don't own, write them on paper (I've used index cards and cut each book into strips so they are all the same length and roughly the same size) and placed them in a jar.  Series were grouped together to be marathoned so I don't end up pulling the 4th book of a series or something.  I will pull a new slip out after I am 50 pages in to the final book I am reading before I would need to pull a slip out so then that way if I need to get it from the library, I have a few days left of the book I'm on (haha hopefully) in order for it to arrive.  The last one I pulled was a few days ago and I pulled the Confessions of a Shopaholic series.  I own the first three books and placed the other three on hold through the library and it's taking them a bit to get here.  But no worries, I still have a quarter of the first book to go as well as the second and third before I need them.

4. Again, speaking of books, I'm thinking about maybe starting a booktube channel on Youtube when the new year arrives.

5. It would be very nice if I was currently in Disney World at the moment.  I miss it a ton and can just imagine walking around certain areas of the parks, recognize the music, and can we talk about ride smells??  Some of the rides just have certain smells.  Especially Pirates of the Caribbean and Spaceship Earth.
