Tuesday Things.
1. Max and I put up the kitchen Christmas tree this past weekend even though we are having Thanksgiving. I figure since it’s food ornaments and T Day is the biggest food day… it fits. I’m on board early this season! But I feel like Thanksgiving is celebrated for only a day or two, while Christmas can be enjoyed for weeks!
2. Pretzel tot queso fundido. I’m officially dead.
3. All I want to do in life is throw a gingerbread house decorating party.
4. TV things! I loathe where they are taking the Gary/Maggie storyline on a Million Little Things. I absolutely love love loved the episode of Grey’s! I also had a few really late work nights and started binging Workin Moms. I don’t know what I think. I LIKE it, but I find the characters SO unlikable. But also hilarious. And after the shock season two ending, I really ended up liking them more?
5. YEP. This is why I loathe talking on the phone.
6. Tell me all about Disney+. What IS it? Do I need it? Hoowwww are we supposed to do, like, four streaming services?
7. Speaking of, I kind of love the fact that Emilia is now obsessed with Frozen. She demands that we sing Let It Go at bedtime. I mean, I have to take them to see Frozen II on Friday, right?! Or is that a special kind of punishment for parents?
8. I LOVE this: how to find your passion. I feel this way about so many things! I have a hard time conveying what I want, but know exactly what I DON’T want. This usually leads to what I do. Feels complicated, but works.
9. Anyone else strolling through Target like a freak every week just to look at the Christmas decorations? I fear this is the equivalent to when my mom would drive us around to look at Christmas lights. A sad equivalent.
10. On one of my strolls, I bought this book! Starting it this week. YAY holidays.

omg. walking through the Target holiday decor is my FAVORITE thing to do!!! also, the Dollar Spot has suuuuchhh cute Christmas/winter stuff, too. i have to restrict myself because i want to buy EVERYTHING (and i have no self control).
Omg. I was skeptical about Disney+ but I signed up anyway. It is nostalgic GOLD. Literally everything Disney has ever done is on it, plus 90s movies like Never Been Kissed and 10 Things I Hate About You are on it too. I may have watched the Lindsay Lohan Parent Trap twice already. It’s fine.
I dropped Hulu. Both are month to month so if I wanna pick one back up, it’s not a huge deal to switch. I think y’all will like it a lot.
Disney+ is free for a year if you have the Verizon unlimited phone plan!
Yes, you do need Disney+. It is SO cheap and the price is only going to go up. Personally, I feel Netflix has been so hit or miss these past few months (especially for shows for a 3-year-old) that I think we may give that up because yes – too many streaming services! But Disney+ is gold and so nostalgic. If you have kids it’s a must!

Omg yes a gingerbread decorating party sounds AMAZING!! I’ve also been strolling through the holiday aisles in Target as well! I just can’t help it, everything is soooo cute!
Yes to Disney+. You need it, and I have nothing more to say about that :) Also, my 21 month old LOVES Frozen too (we previously only watched the music clips on YouTube, but now are able to actually watch the whole thing on Disney haha). She also asks me to sing “Leh Go” at night! So funny bc she has never really liked me to sing to her much. If I start singing, she will put her hand to my mouth to stop me! But if it’s Let It Go, she will lay and listen quietly. I love it, and also cracking up at myself on the inside bc I’m sure I’m messing up all the words. ALSO! I totally feel you with the Target thing too! I was in there yesterday for the first time in a couple weeks and went crazy over all the Christmas stuff. I had to call my husband after to tell him he should be proud of me for having self control through and not buying any of it (except a pair of fuzzy Christmas socks for my daughter…$3 so it doesn’t count). But I will be back!
My husband insisted we get Disney+. He has never had cable and mostly puts on marvel movies so it made sense. It also is good for his four year old daughter…..we’ve been watching frozen. Haha. My husband and younger son are going through Star Wars together which a fun way they’re bonding. I have yet to watch anything there on my own. We did get the one plan that includes ESPN and Hulu so that kind of makes the service worth it to me. There are way too many streaming services and it’s only going to get more confusing!!!
My husband and I walk through Target pretty much every week once September starts. We may or may not have an unofficial standing Friday night date there most weekends, lol. Sometimes we buy stuff, sometimes we don’t. Either way, we talk, we laugh, we walk around, and we have a fun and relaxing time together. “Target dates” is great marriage advice, lol.
That Nancy Thayer book sounds good! I just requested it from my local library. :) Can’t wait to start all the Christmas reads!!
please share the secret on how you got your husband to WEEKLY roam the aisles of target ??? and this is all without massive amounts of complaining ? no comments about how you dont “need any more stuff” or anything of that nature ? I sense your target might have a starbux or beer and this is how you lure him in ???? :)
LOL. I strangely don’t have to coerce him at all! We both love going to just wander around the store. He loves video games, so I suspect that section is the big draw. He also gets excited about discounted holiday candy. :-D
Don’t judge me. We have Disney + and it’s wonderful! I’m using the excuse of a one-year-old grandson to get it. We have all our streaming apps through our firestick, the easiest way to access everything.
You’ve probably posted one before but can you share a photo of your kitchen Christmas tree!? I want to start one! Disney + is totally worth it even if you just get it to watch the new Christmas movie with Anna Kendrick, Noelle. SO CUTE
