Experiment: My Week

So I saw this format on another blog, where she gave a recap of her week. Ok it's simplytaralynn.com. She got real specific with what she did each week, where mine would be more relaxed and just random things from the week. If I keep going with this, I'd probably stop the monthly favorites, since I'd just repeat things. Plus not everything will be a favorite, some will be meh and not my type of thing. But you know me, it may not be every week, especially with school starting up again. So I think it's going to be super random with health, food, entertainment...

Here we go.

This is the sleep tracker on my fitbit app and it says I slept from 6:40 pm to 11:20pm last night. Apparently it doesn't know what a Netflix binge looks like. 

What was I binge watching, you ask? The Vampire Diaries. I watched the first season when it first came on TV, but fell off or I couldn't always watch it when it was on TV (thank goodness for DVR). 

The one day it rains in Las Vegas. 

Is Solar Eclipse day. 

I rarely go to Dairy Queen, but I saw the Triple Truffle Blizzard and really wanted one. It was good, but I get really high expectations for how things are portrayed on TV and it always looks better on TV. 

I tried this, so you wouldn't have to. I have been on a real avocado kick and thought I'd try something a little different. It was a little much, but maybe because I also just happened to have a little bacon with it. I think I'll stick with my regular avocado and tomato toast. 

These are food items that I like this week. Yes, I'm a picky eater and would totally live off of applesauce, chicken fingers, and pizza. I don't usually get capri suns, but they're such a childhood/nostalgia drink that I've always loved. Not having it often, just makes it more exciting when I get one. These GoGo applesauces are perfect as portable snacks, I stock up on them for school. My favorite flavor is the strawberry apple, but only in this brand. I got it in the Kroger brand and it was not good. Dehydrated food is good for a to go snack too. This is the Sam's Club brand Member's Mark and I really like the bananas and strawberries blend. The only thing is that the seeds get stuck in your teeth. Olives! I don't know why, but I love black olives. I eat them like a substitution for chips. I like to take them out of the can, put them in a ziplock bag, and store them in the fridge. IMO cold olives are the best. 

I watched the first episode of Iron Fist on Netflix last night. The Defenders just came out and I figured I should start catching up. I loved Daredevil and watched both seasons. I have seen 4 episodes of Jessica Jones and just stopped. I just wasn't really into her story and I guess it left a bad taste in my mouth because I didn't watch Luke Cage or Iron Fist. But after watching the first episode of Iron Fist I think I'll keep watching this one, so far it has captured my attention. 

I also watched Friends. I am on Season 2 Episode 13. Ross has found Marcel and it was so sweet. I've seen Friends when it randomly comes on TV, but have never watched all of the episodes in order, so that is my goal. 

Speaking of rewatching old series, my sister-in-law told me about these guys a while ago, but I didn't actually listen until today actually. It's the Gilmore Guys. If you binge watched Gilmore Girls in time for the 4 parts to come out on Netflix like I did, you'll love listening to these guys, especially if it's still fresh in your mind. Gilmore Girls is another one where, I was like 7 when it came on TV, so all I remember is my sister being really into the show and I remember watching it also, but it had just been so long that I didn't remember much. Anyways I found them on Spotify and I've only listened to the first episode, but I have a good feeling about this. Also they're pretty funny. They just talk about each episode of the series and give their opinions/reactions. One of the guys has seen the series and is a big fan, while the other guy is watching the series for the first time.

I found a playlist on Spotify called Weekly Buzz that has worked as nice background music while I write this and while I've been on pinterest going through school/college tips. I might make a post on what I've found or my plan for school. A lot of people may have started school already, but I have not yet, sooo it's still the beginning of the year and tips can still be integrated.

I have been doing a workout routine on youtube with Bikini Body Mommy. I'm not a mom, but she still has some good workouts. This is the challenge I've been doing and I have about a month left. I did another 90 day challenge, but they kept using the same videos where I was able to start mouthing along with the video and it became very boring. She has different videos every week and she is following this journey right along with you.

What am I reading? Smokin' Seventeen by Janet Evanovich. Yeah, it does seem like we get into the same situations in every book, but I can't stop? I have a hard time stopping series in case something interesting happens. It is a quick I don't want to think about anything read. Also I'm holding out to find out which guy she finally chooses.
