Goodness Gracious! I have been busy!

     So work blew up this past week and before that I was also super busy, so I'm just super sorry I haven't been able to post. I thought about it! But I just didn't have time. I barely had time to turn on my computer, and when I did I was watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire while eating breakfast XD So yeah, busy, busy, busy. This week is also super busy, but I have enough time to write this! :D
     Did I mention that I was rewatching the Harry Potter movies? I want to delve back into the world before Fantastic Beasts :) That looks super exciting!!! I should also reread the books, because the movies miss a lot of things, not as much in the first three... or was it just the first two... but I mean, those books are big! At the end, I'm not surprised you can't fit it all. And man, they get dark even in the 3rd one. Like... Harry Potter has some good laughs, but its overall a pretty dark series for kids. I was about to watch the 5th one, The Order of the Phoenix (who else has a hard time spelling "phoenix"???), when I put it in and was all... "This... doesn't look like the 5th one... this looks like the 6th" XD It turns out I grabbed the wrong one at the library! XD But I ordered the 5th one so it should be on its way soon :)
     Speaking of ordering things from the library, I've been thinking about materialism and stuff lately. How much stuff is too much? Like, usually I love buying DVDs and movies so that I can watch them whenever I want, without needing internet and all that, but I've been wondering if I need to... Clearly, no one needs to buy DVDs and watch movies, its not a necessity, but I've been thinking about mostly getting things from the library a much as possible. One, its free, I don't have to shell out 20 to 30 bucks for something. Two, its not technically free, my taxes are paying for it but its better than 20 plus bucks. Three DVDs are turning into Blu Ray and Blu Ray is turning into 4k... Geez its so annoying to "keep up" with technology. Four, I feel sorta guilty about spending money on movies than like giving to charity or doing something more "responsible". And its not like I don't give to charity, I do, but I always feel like I should give more. Like its never enough. Which, in a way its  not. money and things will only get people so far, everyone needs God in their lives to make it complete. But, still I can't help but think I should sell more of my stuff, give away more of my stuff (one so that I have less to clean and make a mess of), so that others who need it more can have them. But then I wonder whats the best way to get my stuff or my money to the people who need it ya know? How can I tell who needs it the most and who is gonna use it the best? These are the things that I wonder about XD and if anyone had any thoughts, you are more than welcome to comment ^_^
I do wish I could do a sort of garage sale, though, and raise money for charity, and just plain get rid of stuff. But i'm like... too lazy. I'd rather someone I know host it and I just give my stuff for them to sell XD I'm so lazy. And I know there are a ton of apps now a day for this type of stuff, but I hate making accounts and having sites ask for permission for so many things. Like, ugh. I know I'm a paranoid granny, but I'd be more inclined to get Snapchat if it wasn't so... invasive. Like google isn't already? But I've had this account for years. The reason I just did a blogger rather than another site was cause I didn't have to make another account. Its already on the YT/Google account, so eh.
     Where am I going with this...? Not entirely sure, its just a stream of consciousness. But man, it takes longer to type than to think it XD  Well, it late and I want to get to bed soonish. So toodles for noe!!! ^_^
