I’m Still Here!

Friends! Hello from Birmingham! It’s been a minute since I’ve posted here on the blog, and I’m sorry for that. **I’m going to take a quick minute to suggest you follow me on either Instagram or Facebook—I update those much more regularly than this blog, although I do want to keep you updated here as…

Back to School (aka the most bittersweet day of the year)

Hi friends! It’s been a while. First, a little housekeeping: It feels pretty self-serving to direct you to my Facebook page, but since you’re here to see what’s going on in my world, I guess it’s not too much of a stretch to think you might be interested to know I post more frequently (but…

Going to try something new…

I used to read a lot of blogs. I mean, A LOT. It was back when I worked full-time, and now that I think about it, it’s kind of funny to me that I had WAY more time to read blogs when I had a full-time job than when I lost my job and came…
