Hey, It's Okay....
....to have a giveaway for a DVD/Blu-Ray combo of Max 2: White House Hero here.
....to be weirded out when people say "Happy Memorial Day." There's really nothing happy about it.
....to have had a low key weekend. I mostly read books and watched Gilmore Girls. Oh, and I ate.
....to be excited that House Of Cards starts today on Netflix. Yay!
....to have been underwhelmed for the season finale of Scandal. What happened to Olivia?
....to be impatiently waiting for a bunch of books to become available at the library. I have tons on hold.
....to need to pick up more chocolate because the kids get out of school on Thursday and I'm afraid. Some people love having their kids home all the time. I am not one of those people. I need my quiet. My son is quiet, but my daughter? Is not.
....to love my new library book stamp shirt. It goes perfectly with my book purse. (You can buy the shirt on Amazon here. It's an affiliate link which means if you purchase I get a small portion of the sale and maybe in like 1 year I'll earn enough to be able to buy a book.)

There are A LOT of people out there who don't understand what Memorial Day is all about. And that is really sad.
ReplyDeleteI finally have started buying books again and I'm so happy. I usually don't go this long without reading...my brain was beginning to ooze out the door. Hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI hope Tom had a good weekend. Thank him for his service. :)
I love this - so much of it is true, I was talking to my parents about our local library at the weekend it is downsizing as not many use it anymore which is kinda sad.
ReplyDeleteI felt bad about "celebrating" Memorial Day this year. At least at the baseball game we went to there was a moment of silence! I've been trying to figure out what mental illness Olivia has. What a strange character! I'm excited to watch House of Cards!
ReplyDeleteI love your list! You know, about Memorial Day..it is a sad day, but I think that the men and women who sacrificed their lives for us would be happy that we celebrate their sacrifices to keep us free. I don't get the sales though. Pointless. I love your it's okay list. I'm going to have to keep one. Today, it's okay for me to catch up on Good Witch season 3 and chill out.
ReplyDeleteUh Oh! I don't know when to tell my husband about HOUSE OF CARDS - because once I do... I will never see him again until he finished the entire season!
ReplyDeleteI've been hearing so much about House of Cards. I need to check it out so I can be in the loop.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me I need to visit the library soon. Love the t shirt
ReplyDeleteLove love love your book purse! So cute and original! As a fellow bookworm, I completely approve hahaha!
ReplyDeleteThat bag is adorable! And life is so complicated, if anyone wants to claim it's all rainbows and glitter ... well ;)
ReplyDeleteI am so excited about House of Cards! I just got the notification that it's available. Yay!
ReplyDeleteI'm not that excited for House of Cards. I had a hard time getting through season 2 and didn't finish season 3.
ReplyDeleteI love this short post! We tend to beat ourselves up over so many things...and most of it is okay!
ReplyDeleteYou are right, there are nothing happy about Memorial Day, but we have to remember all those who sacrificed their souls for others to survive!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea. I will have to check out House of Cards this weekend. We are supposed to have some rain so I will be stuck inside all weekend.
ReplyDeleteThese are so true! I cannot believe Olivia is turning into the bad guy! And, I cannot wait to indulge in some House of Cards tonight!!
ReplyDeleteI love your purse! I'm with you on the "happy Memorial Day" thing.
ReplyDeleteThat book purse is too cute! I agree, can't wait to watch HOC!
ReplyDeleteYay I thought I was the only one. I am super stoked for house of cards to start as well. Binge watch here we come x
ReplyDeleteThese are all great Okays. Mine is "I feel like crying like a girl" moment and it feels great.
ReplyDeleteIt’s okay to fail, but just make sure you learn from it. This is something I learned over time.
ReplyDeleteOk, seriously your new purse and shirt are awesome and so totally you! I also need to replenish my emergency chocolate and caffeine, because chaos is home to stay after Thursday!
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only one with lots of books on hold at the library. The impatient side of me thinks that maybe I should buy one or two just to get by. The practical side says wait!
ReplyDeleteReally, everything on your list is just okay! I this week, it is okay for me to get little sleep. Work has been so demanding but as you said, its' okay! It puts food on the table.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun list and idea! It's totally ok to have a stash of chocolate in the house - It helps keep us sane!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy a low key weekend, a great way to relax. I love watching new movies on Netflix.
ReplyDeleteSo fun and love this series of yours. I hope you enjoyed your weekend. I miss going to the library. Also love your t shirt and so cool with your book bag.
ReplyDeleteSo many people don't understand the meaning of Memorial Day, it isn't just a day for a cookout. I can't say I was underwhelmed by the Scandal finale but can say I didn't expect it to go the way that it did.
ReplyDeleteScarlet will have camp for most of the summer but not Des. I'll need chocolate too!!
ReplyDeleteWe don't observe Memorial Day where I live but we do have a Day of Valor for those who died during the second World War. I think it's definitely not a day to attach the word "Happy" to, so I don't really get why people do that. I guess they forgot why it's observed in the first place.
ReplyDeleteI don't like the 'Happy Memorial Day' thing either. You're right. It's a day of reverence, certainly not happy.
ReplyDeleteWell I guess most of the people just go and greet about the Memorial Day for the sake of social media. Not even knowing the real reason about the day. Wasn't able to see the design of your shirt, your too shy to flaunt it? and oh by the way, I love your bag! -ANOSA
ReplyDeleteThis is really important, take out some me time, to wear good dresses and to love your outfit because it's you who carries it. Go, take some me time, for shopping and food, it is the refreshment lifeline
ReplyDeleteOk, being a librarian I am definitely going to have to see that stamp shirt. That is so cool. Although long gone are the days of stamps. But I love it still.
ReplyDeleteWe didn't celebrate memorial day here. We just spent time in the house and with family. It's a reminder to me to be thankful for my family, because some don't have theirs!
ReplyDeleteI salute to the all that has fought for our country. It is a day of remembrance.
ReplyDeleteI am with you about the whole Memorial Day thing. You made me smile about the whole chocolate, kids out of school, and being afraid.
ReplyDeleteI think that shirt is rad. Of course kids today won't even know what it means - but old people like us will!
ReplyDeleteAhh, without you, I wouldn't have known that HoC was starting this week. Ha! Ooh, I hope you get all the books you've put on hold soon!!
ReplyDeleteOh that book purse is so lovely! And the shirt is so cool Maybe it's time to go on the library.
ReplyDeleteHahaha my hubby is obsessed with scandal and really any type of crime show! I'm not usually into those shows but scandal is a good one!
ReplyDeleteGrowing up with just about every male in our family serving the military, the whole Memorial Day thing can be tedious hearing people who have no idea talk. Sounds like your weekend was good!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about Memorial Day. People think it's just about BBQs and backyard parties and they have forgotten the real meaning of this observance.
ReplyDeleteI'm also underwhelmed with Scandal lately. It's OK
ReplyDeleteXO, MJ
