WILW & OHP: July 10

Hey y'all,

The whole day off in the middle of the week last week has thrown me completely off. So, today is Wednesday and I will hopefully be back to the swing of blogging. This week I am loving....

...Despicable Me 2. On the 4th, I spent time with friends going to see it and then a fun cookout. It was the perfect way to spend the day (I even got to sleep in).

If you love Minions I think you should read this Buzz Feed article on 15 Reasons We Wish We Had Minions. Or this pin that helps showcase the various Minions.

So now you all know that I love Despicable Me/Minions and yes I am excited that next December the Minion movie comes out!

...I have another planner now in the mix for decisions. I found the 2013 & 2014 Planners by PlumPaperDesigns and I think I will end up with them in the great Lilly/Erin Condren planner debate. The Plum Paper planners have the option of format similar to the EC Life Planner but they have lines! I am one of those people who loves to write on the line. They are also personalized and only $30! Less than the Luxe Lilly I was eyeing or the Life Planner.

...the countdown to move in day is 24 days! I am still slowly packing but I visit my parent's next weekend to grab some more boxes (and see Max the cat) and really get in packing mode. It is so strange to think that I move so soon!

...speaking of packing, I have been watching my Gilmore Girls season DVDs and I am almost done with season 5! I really hope I can stretch them to move in day but they are great to put on and watch while cleaning/packing. I just finished the episode where Luke & Lorelei break up and the ribbons are around the town. It is also Logan time now which I don't love.

...making my Christmas list. Y'all might think it is strange, but when you have relatives on both coasts, you get used to making your Christmas list early so that it can be sent to them and the gifts shipped. We used to draw names in July so I am used to having the list made by August. I will share the list soon!

...reading. I am back on the reading bug bad, and good considering according to Goodreads with my goal of 113 books I am about 8 books behind. However, thanks to NetGalley I have found some really great books and so far this week I have already read two books and I am half way done with two others!

...If you didn't watch Jami's episode of Extreme Weight Loss last night I highly recommend it! Jami's story had me crying and I recently found that she started a blog.

  1. I love that anchor planner! I need all the seasons of Gilmore Girls, I would love to rewatch them all. I'm currently re-watching (some for the first time too) Greek and loving it!

  4. That planner is awesome!!! I've never had an "expensive" (over $10 for a planner is expensive in my opioion) but i'm considering getting one, I just don't know which brand to go with. I'm definitely checking these out! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Gilmore Girls and I like Logan, sometimes annoying but he's pretty cute!

  6. I'm so obsessed with Despicable Me! The second one was hilarious!! And that planner looks awesome..and the price tag isn't bad either. I definitely see why you're considering it!

  7. I am dying to see Despicable Me 2!!! I may have to take myself since no one in my family wants to go see it. And I am OBSESSED with that Chi O picture that you pinned -- our National Headquarters posted it on their facebook the other day and I wish that my chapter had thought of that for recruitment!

    Also, those planners are darling! I would probably choose that one over the Lilly and EC ones as well!

  9. Have you had success with using NetGalley? I've heard mixed reviews and I'm wondering if it's worth it??
