Hey, It's Okay

I got this idea from Glamour magazine. You can link up any day of the week. All you have to do is make a list of what you're okay about. Simple! Please do not link up a post that has nothing to do with Hey, It's Okay. It's rude and I'll delete the link.

HEY, IT'S OKAY....


.....to have gotten some cleaning done over the long weekend. And some shopping. Bath & Body Works has Strawberry Pound Cake lotion out, plus I had a 20% off coupon. I smell like a walking dessert now.



.....to think it's ridiculous that people want Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston back together. They're friends! Leave them alone. Remember he cheated on her. It seems they are better off as friends but awards show love to pan in on them when the other gives a speech.



.....to hope Prince Harry and Meghan will be happy in Canada. As I said before, I don't blame them for leaving. The press is disgusting and I hope everyone who writes something negative about Harry and Meghan develops an itch they can never scratch.



......to not be sure if Birds of Prey is going to be good or not. It has potential, but I also worry it might be cheesy. I'll wait and hear reviews before I see it. I did like Suicide Squad.



.....to think these Most Stuf Oreos are pretty dang tasty. Some people say they are too much. I am not one of those people.

Unboxing The January Kawaii YumeTwins Box From Japan

It's that time again! The YumeTwins box from Japan has arrived. This one was extra exciting because it had Disney items in it, and we love Disney.

Natalie had the case of the giggles. She gets that from me. Suddenly everything is hilarious to us and we can't stop.

It's especially fun when this happens in school.

Eventually she calmed down and dug through the box.


She got some Disney Flake Stickers--that's what they are known as in Japan. We do love Chip & Dale!

There was also a Disney Tsum Tsum Water Bottle which is perfect because Natalie always seems to lose hers.

Natalie was all, "Oh, what a fun water bottle!"

Then she did an Instagram "drinking from a water bottle Instagram pose."

I love the Disney Tsum Tsum Tote bag. I've been trying to use more reusable bags.

One of her favorite items was the Disney Plushie! It's Donald Duck!

Another favorite that made her get the giggles again? The Disney Mini Mini Solar Swinging Character. It moves in the sunlight:

You can get your own YumeTwins box for less than $40! Click here and you'll get $5 off your first box! Each month you'll get 6-8 surprises from Japan. Pokemon, Gudetama, to name a few.

What's your favorite item in the box this month?

Checking Out Polly's Pets In Universal City, Texas

My daughter Natalie was watching a Tik Tok video and was all, "Oh, can we go to Polly's Pets the next time we visit Nona?"

So we did that, because we all love animals. They have exotic fish, birds, dogs, and so much more!

Natalie loved the bird area. There was a great variety of them.

I thought this was fun:

The aquarium area was neat. If you're looking for fish, head to Polly's Pets. They have a huge selection, plus other aquatic friends.

The store is set up nicely and seriously, they seem to have nearly everything you'd need for a pet.

Natalie has been wanting a ferret. They had them there. I said no.

There are even ducks!

You can even meet a Lemur.  (He's in the lower left hand corner.) We didn't do it this time, but perhaps the next. Natalie thought he was cute.

Then she saw there were puppies, and wanted one of those. I said no.

You can find so many pets, and Natalie wanted to say hi to every one of them.

Here's the thing: we already have two cats and two guinea pigs. So I told Natalie it wasn't happening.

She really wanted this short tail opossum. "He's so cute! I love him!" I said no.

Would we go back? Heck yes! It's such a neat place to check out. If you want to go, check out their website here for hours and to learn more. They are located right by Randolph Air Force Base.

(They also had hedgehogs and Natalie REALLY wanted one. But no. We have two cats. And two guinea pigs.)
