And I'm already tired with how 'convenient' it's been that Michaela and then Ben just so happened to be near where their voices told them to be to save the girls/catch the thief. A Millions Little Things is kind of cheesy, but right now dumb > cheesy.

I just can't get past my love of hotels and not having to make my bed, haha.

You can even post on the site where the book is and others who find it can leave it somewhere else. (Sort of like wheresgeorge.com) I forget the name, but I looked into it several years ago and it seemed interesting. You were supposed to print out a little thing or just write the information down so whoever found it could track it too. <br /><br />3. Ugh, I feel you. I looked into Uber, but I'm fairly certain my vehicle would not qualify and my husband doesn't like the idea of me of it either. (Vehemently against it actually.) It sucks because I have also been looking into trying to get a second job during the week - during school hours - to bring some extra cash in. Unfortunately all the part time jobs seem to be all or nothing... which sort of defeats the purpose really.

I would che..."I want HGTV, Food Network"<br /><br />I would check Hulu. There is also something called SlingTV that offers live streaming cable channels, but is cheaper. I don't have it so I can't comment.<br /><br />I have Hulu and Prime. We also share netflix with a family member (we share prime and hulu). I like Prime well enough, but unless you want older PBS or HBO shows, there is not a whole lot.<br />Hulu is good for current network tv shows (except CW). They have been making some decent deals as of late. They have HGTV now and maybe Food Network, I'm not sure. <br />Netflix is a nice option, but they are drastically shifting to original programing. They do have solid options, but it is their focus now.<br /><br />For something like a firestick.... look at the options. AppleTV, Roku, ChromeCast (or whatever google's is). Look at what apps they offer. A lot of cable channels now stream the most recent episode free via their apps. So it's worth comparing to see if any of those include something you want.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06982645624842457409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-662855016447426610.post-54699967187251634762017-07-19T23:55:42.344-04:002017-07-19T23:55:42.344-04:00Enjoy the rest of the summer.

Granted I made no effort to socialize since I knew I'd be moving on soon, but it was still rough some days to see other people making happy hour plans and whatnot and knowing I had no place with them. I was at a site for three years prior with super close friends, so moving from that was hard. The good news is that after a year or two at the high school where I am now, and have been for seven years, I definitely have "a circle." I think it just comes in lulls and depends on who's there. Plan fun things with non-work friends to fill the void!<br /><br />2. Have you tried yoga?
