Sunday Post #491: Galentine's Day Shenanigans


Welcome to The Sunday Post hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer, where I talk about what is going on in life and the blog, and show you all the bookish things I got that week!


What I've been doing:

This was a nice short week. I didn't work Friday, and I spent the day reading. Lol. I also don't work tomorrow, which will be extra nice! I'll definitely read some, but today and tomorrow I gotta buckle down and write some reviews 😅


Yesterday I had a nice Galentine's Day with my cousin. We went to a bookstore, winery, a cupcake shop, and then we went back to her place to watch some horror movies because that's just how we do 😆

What I've been watching:

We watched some pretty good horror movies! Not amazing, but not bad either.

 

No Me Sigas is a new Blumhouse movie that's in Spanish, and Valentine is a movie I actually had never seen before! Shocking! I feel like I've seen all the horror movies at this point 😂

What I've been playing:

I finished building the house for my family I do the rewards events with! I like how it turned out!

 

My goal for this build was to use all of the items we've gotten from these events. I didn't manage to get them all in here, but the ones I didn't use, I just put in the basement in their "storage" room 😂

 

Unfortunately, this house ended up being quite expensive, as all my builds tend to be 😅 I was considering having my Sims grind for the money, but then I remembered that Grandma is still alive and super loaded, so now I'm thinking of moving her in. I did not make an extra bedroom, but I could easily make one in the basement.

 

Decisions, decisions. Lol. I'm gonna try and play some of this save file today to at least get them to move in and have them ready for the next quests in a couple days. And I say "try" because I broke my game yesterday! The game kept freezing and crashing and I tried to repair the game but then the EA app disappeared and UGH. I hate EA so much. Anyway, my brother helped my and I was able to open the EA app and my game again. I haven't actually gotten into my save file yet, so idk if it's going to freeze again or not. Sigh. This perpetually broken game is going to be the death of me 😪

And I'm still playing ACNH, of course. This week I played a treasure hunting game with Bones, and I had honestly forgotten that this was a thing 😅

 

It was so cute though!! I freaking love Bones!

 

Despite the fact that he gave me a BIB as a prize 😭🤣

 

Also, I was doing some terraforming because I'm actually trying to finish my island and make it look nice, but while I was up on this cliff trying to remove some weeds, I GOT STUCK 😭 I had to call Resetti to come and get me unstuck 🤣 I love this game. Lol.

    1. Right? It was great! And thank you! It's giving living in a cabin in the mountains, which is something I aspire to do one day 😆

  2. I can't believe I forgot to come visit this post! The cupcake looks delicious. Is Valentine the one with David Boreanaz? I think I saw that when it came out, but haven't seen since. Hmm, I don't remember treasure hunts with Bones on ACNH, I'm missing out! I keep looking to find another cheap used Switch Lite so I can set up a new island without losing my old one. I mean I want to take all my bells and stuff to give to the new island to get it set up quicker, but I also want to do a different type than what I have now.

    1. It was that movie! I was shocked to have never seen it before. Lol. I totally get you about wanting another island. I've been thinking for the last couple of days of getting a Switch 2. I said I wasn't going to buy one until the new Animal Crossing came out on it, but Pokopia was just released on it last week and it's basically like Animal Crossing, so now I'm at a crossroads. Lol. If I got a Switch 2, not only would I get Pokopia, but I think I would also be able to start another ACNH island, which I think would be fun. But idk. It's SO expensive 😣
