Week Whatever of Quarantine, Vol. 5: More Quarantine Outfits

Note: This post contains affiliate links. Thank you for supporting the brands that support Something Good.

For today’s post, I thought I would combine two of my favorite types of posts lately: more quarantine outfits (see here for some daily outfits) and week whatever of quarantine! Am I squeezing too much into one post? Maybe, but whatever. Let’s dive in!

Weird Purchases

I decided that since I’ve been working from home over the last three months, I’ve become terrible at drinking water during the day. Enter my new best friend. My gigantic gallon bottle. It’s bigger than my head. It’s so ridiculous in fact that my boyfriend has told me that I’m not allowed to leave the house with it (like I’m going anywhere, that fool). But the good news is that since I’ve gotten it, I’ve been drinking SO MUCH more water every day. I’ve never been so hydrated. I’ve also never visited the bathroom more. TMI?

My wrist has also been killing me lately while I’m sitting at my desk. Apparently I have terrible ways of holding my mouse and it’s been hurting my already messed up wrist. The solution, an ergonomic mouse pad! The pretty version was also the same price as the boring black version was just an added bonus. I started using it this week and it’s already been so helpful.

What I’ve Been Reading: A Happy Catastrophe by Maddie Dawson

Note: I received this book as an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

When you read a book like Matchmaking for Beginners, it’s so amazing, that you doubt a sequel could ever live up to the first. A Happy Catastrophe is the sequel that not only lives up to the first, but matches it in the best way possible. The sequel takes place four years after the events of the original novel and we meet up with Marnie and Patrick as they’ve settle into being perfect for each other. But then a shakeup comes in the form of an eight year old.

A Happy Catastrophe was a can’t put down read. The characters are witty, fully developed, and you can’t help but fall in love with them. You want nothing but for the characters to succeed and for the book to never end. I can only hope for a third book in this series from Maddie Dawson!

Other Random Things

Napping

Pre-quarantine I was not a napper. I couldn’t do naps because I woke up more tired than I was before. Now? I LOVE naps. I’ll take naps after work and on the weekend. Between my couch and my fuzzy blanket, I curl up in the couch and I’m in nap heaven.

Giggly Squad

Have you ever watched Summer House? It’s a show on Bravo that was meh for it’s first two seasons, but really took off in season three. Well, two of the girls from it, Hannah and Paige have been hosting nightly instagram lives called Giggly Squad and they’re so much fun. They’ve been doing them since quarantine started and it’s like chatting with two of your friends. I HIGHLY recommend watching summer house (specifically season 3 and 4) and joining their instagram lives.

Podcasts

I’ve been mixing up the podcasts I’ve been listening to lately, after I realized I just wasn’t enjoying some of the ones I used to listen to anymore.

My favorite new addition has been Best Friends with Nicole and Sasheer. I’ve been listening to Nicole’s other podcast, Why Won’t You Date Me, for a while now, but I some how never started listening to this one. But that’s been remedied now and I’m in love with it. Nicole is absolutely hilarious and getting to listen to her chat with her best friend Sasheer who is also hilarious is even better. I’ve now lol’ed multiple times in public while listening to their podcast. I would HIGHLY recommend it.
