Sunglasses, a squishy lama and dinner with my cousin

Hello, my bucket list, friends! This month is turning out to be a lot more fun than I had planned on it being, and that is a very welcome surprise. Last week, I had Wednesday and Thursday off from work. On Wednesday I went into town and I went to a store that I don’t think that I had ever been in before. I got a pair of purple sparkly sunglasses. Then I went to one of my favorite local toy stores. Outside of the store there is a sale table. I saw a Barbie that was out of the box but in good shape. She was only five dollars, so I was more than happy to have her join my collection. Inside the store, I got some ice cream shaped erasers, a very cute and squishy lama toy, and more. I also went to Blue Bottle coffee for the first time. I got an iced coffee, and it was pretty good. It was also a very sunny day and I wore a dress for the first time in a while. The next day, I did not have anything planned, but I was happily surprised when my cousin called and asked if I wanted to go to dinner. We went to the Lazy Dog. I had never been there before but now that I have been I can recommend it. It was really good to get to go to dinner with my cousin. I have wanted to focus on being more social, and I have had some good opportunities to do that this month. After we ate dinner we went to Barns and Noble. I got two books. One was a book made up of a bunch of short Barbie books, and the other was a larger Barbie book that comes with toys. Last week my days off were pretty exciting and I’m happy about that.

The best way to start the month of May

Hello, my bucket list, friends! Things have been very busy lately, and I’ve gotten behind on my blog posts. I wanted to post my Starbucks review quickly, and now that I’ve done that. I wanted to go back to the very first day of this month. I started off this very busy month with a spontaneous hangout with my amazing friend. It was a beautiful day, and we decided to get Jamba Juice. It had been way too long since we had seen each other. After Jamba Juice, we went to a local toy store because I wanted to get some stickers. The sticker selection did not disappoint, and I got a few different kinds, including a book of avocado stickers. After that we went to a local park and went on a nice walk. It was nice just to sit on a bench by the lake and watch birds while we talked. The area that I live in is very fast-paced, and it is so nice to slow down for a bit. I feel like I’m either rushing around or I’m too tired to do anything at all. It is so easy to get caught up in everything that the most important things like spending time with friends and family can get put to the side. I’m glad I started the month on a great note, and I hope it continues.

April 2024 so far

Hello, my bucket list, friends! It has come to my attention that I have not blogged in a little bit, and I feel the need to make a blog post even though I do not have a lot to say right now. anyways, I thought I would write about the highlights of my month so far, so let’s get to it!

I’ve been enjoying some sunny days – It is sunny outside as I write this. I have been enjoying the comfort that the sunshine gives me. My cat Cooper has been enjoying it, too.

I’ve done a lot of shopping at work . All of the Easter items are on sale, so I have been getting a lot of them this month. On Saturday, I got a cactus themed Easter basket that came with stickers , a cute cactus plush, and other items. Some other items I’ve gotten this month include a sticker book, mini backpacks with fun items inside, Pez dispensers, a plastic lollypop that has squishy toys inside, and two light up toys one is Peeps themed the other is a cute bug. We have started to put out the summer items at my work, and I’m super excited about that. Last night, I bought some reusable ice cubes, but they are not regular cube shaped ice cubes. They are in the shape of fun tropical things like flamingos and pineapples!

I’ve written two pomes on Vocal Media this month . On is about coffee, you can read it HERE the other one is about sunshine you can read it HERE

Baja Fresh – I went to Baja Fresh this month . I love their food and their free stickers.

Thank you for reading about my month so far!
