Egad! What year is it? *Dusts off cobwebs and coughs up grave dirt* Well, I certainly didn’t mean to go on hiatus for like a quarter of the year, but life was . . . to put it mildly, a raging dumpster fire. Truth be told, it wasn’t ALL bad, but damn, did it get overwhelming. To be fair, there were some good points over the past few months, but for the most part, it’s just seemed like one exhausting and endless loop of me or any assortment of my loved ones being sick/injured/having surgery/requiring around the clock care at any given time. Aaaand, to make things even more stressful, apparently, somewhere in the back of my burnt-out mind, I thought this to be the perfect time to throw bringing home a puppy into the mix, because, who really likes being able to get even a moment’s rest anyway? Not this girl, apparently.
Buuuuut, things are looking a little more stable (for now, at least) so I wanted to make sure to dust off my trusty old blog and try to catch up with my favorite blogging buddies. β€ How are you guys?? What exciting things have you been up to lately, and what are your plans for the last few weeks of the year?? π
As we continue to race ever closer to the new year (can you believe 2022 is almost over?!) I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about my goals and the ways I can best check them off my list one by one. Aaaand, to be honest, I’m getting pretty damn excited about it. More news on that to come though! π
Welcome back! Life is nothing if not a beautiful raging dumpster fire, eh? π Sending lots of good vibes!

It’s awesome to hear from you again! It’s also so motivating to hear you speak with so much energy too. I do hope these next weeks will allow you to do everything you love and more! I just know I can’t wait for the holidays to begin just so I can snuggle with a good book and a hot drink with nothing out there bothering me one bit! π

Absolutely. You’re so kind, which I knew from online, but then hearing you talk about your job when we got coffee the next morning really warmed my heart, and I’m glad you exist.
