Snapshot Sunday + Weekly Post Recap

/ thecorkedreader89 / 2 Comments

Hi guys! I can’t believe it is Sunday again. My husband and I were off work all week and it just flew by. We didn’t get nearly as much done as we had hoped (or anything for that matter) but we relaxed. I really, really don’t want to go back to reality tomorrow.

1. My snuggly puppies who enjoyed having us home for the week 2. Homemade pizza and wine 3. Exploding Kittens

This week aside from our usual relaxing activities (Netflix and video games) we did do a few exciting things. We went to see Deadpool on Monday which was a really great movie. We had been looking forward to it for a long time and it did not disappoint at all.

On Tuesday we went to see Jeremy Hotz, a comedian, at the Auditorium. This was our third (I think) time seeing him. My husband really likes stand-up comedy and enjoys him. I always enjoy him live as well. It was a fun evening of laughter. Continue reading →

Hi guys! Another week has come and gone again! It was mostly another uneventful week. My husband and I have been playing through a video game together so it has really distracted us from everything else.

This weekend has been a bit busier though. On Saturday I went to get my hair done so I chopped quite a bit of it off and decided to go for a more chocolatey-brown colour. I really loved the red but I’ve had red hair for about a year now so it was time for a change.

After that I went shopping with my mom which was a lot of fun. It is nice to spend quality time together and catch up.

After shopping I went out with some friends to a shag. Basically it is a wedding social that couples put on to raise money for their wedding. I think it is very much a Thunder Bay thing. Anyone can attend the event, more often than not you don’t know the couple who is getting married. There is always great prizes, inexpensive drinks and music. Continue reading →

Hi guys! Yet another week has quickly come to an end. I feel so much better this week so I’ve been able to squeeze in more exercise now that I can breathe through my nose and have energy. Catching a cold is the worst!

With that said, the week was pretty uneventful. Work was busy but that’s nothing new.

1. My dogs just can’t get enough of each other.. 2. I tried a newish Frozen Yogurt place in town (locally owned) to compare it to my beloved Menchies… unfortunately I just didn’t like it as much! 3. One of my favourite and easiest meals to make… burrito bowls! mmm! 4. Dex putting on a brave face at the vet!

Hi guys! Another week has come to an end, and while I didn’t do much, it was also very busy at the same time. My husband and I have been working on a few home renovations so that has taken up a lot of my time. As well, I’m continuing to work on my resolution of continuing to be active and workout, so that took up the rest of my time. I’m already feeling the positive results though after the damage that the holidays did.

The week itself was uneventful (what else is new?) but on Friday my husband and I went over to one of our best friend’s houses for her birthday celebration. It was a lot of fun! It was nice to end the week with some wine. Continue reading →

Hi guys! It has been a little chaotic around here so I haven’t been as on top of posting as I would normally like to be. Tis the Season, right? I’m hoping to get things better under control and resume regularly scheduled programming this week!
