Slice of Life Day 26: Long Weekend
I’m really excited for the weekend and I’m getting started a little early! I took off today and Monday. Partially, because I had a few carryover days that I need to use up before the end of the month. And partially because I’m exhausted and ready for a little break.…

Back-End Blog Updates
I am so proud of myself! I spent a little time yesterday working on the back-end of my blog. And if I did it right, you shouldn’t see any differences to the front-end. Let me start by saying I’m not a tech-savvy person. I know basic troubleshooting – turn it…
