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 be glad that the new season of Stranger Things FINALLY has a release date. Volume 1 will premiere in May and Volume 2 will come in July. Now I have to remember who the heck everyone is.


.....to have had a busy long weekend. Saturday Natalie dyed her hair, Sunday we went to visit my parents, and Monday I had to take Tommy to college (he was not pleased he still had class on a holiday). Oh, and Monday I took Natalie to Goodwill since she loves the store. 


.....to be getting a Shamrock Shake from McDonald's this week. They're back! 


.....to be taking Natalie to Sea World this weekend to try the new swing ride Tidal Surge. It's basically just a giant swing that moves you back and forth high in the air. It's a no from me but she loves fast rides. 


....to have loved the book We Are Not Like Them by Christine Pride and Jo Piazza. It's about longtime best friends Jen and Riley. Jen is white, finally pregnant after years of trying, and married to a police officer. Riley is hoping to the one of the first Black female anchors at the popular local news station. Jen's husband is involved in a shooting of a Black teenager and the friendship is put to a test. I was riveted by this book and loved how it alternated between the two characters so you could see and feel deeply how they dealt with the aftermath of the shooting. Read this. You won't be sorry.

  8. I have never watched Stranger Things. That book sounds like it could be emotional but a great read. I really should right my own 'Hey its ok' and link up to yours linky. Why haven't I done that yet? I always enjoy reading yours.
