A Look Back at April 2017

3 May, 2017 / 2 Comments

I can’t believe it’s May already! Where did April go?? Well, it wasn’t a very productive month for me here on the blog, because we are still working on our house. We will likely put it up for sale within the next 2 weeks! Gah, I can’t believe I have to go back to work in a month.

A Look at March 2017

2 April, 2017 / 2 Comments

Well peeps, I didn’t get much up on the blog in March. Why? Well, because hubby and I are getting our house ready to sell SO THAT WE CAN MOVE!! It’s proving to be a lot of work and very time-consuming. Add that to caring for an infant and there is hardly any down time! So, blogging unfortunately has to suffer. We’re hoping to have our house up this month, though, so hopefully I’ll get to blog more after that. But then there will be looking for a new house and the big move, so we’ll just have to see! Oh, […]

So…I had a baby

19 October, 2016 / 4 Comments

Well, hello everyone! Hope you all have been doing good! So, I’m back…again. Remember that time about a year ago when I went away for a while because I was pregnant? And then I came back for a few months…and then went away again? Well, I had my baby about 4.5 months ago. Now that I am through the newborn fog and moving on to more of the sunshine and lollipops I was actually expecting to come of this (man, they are NOT KIDDING when they tell you it’s hard! Seriously, people, listen when people give you advice about the […]

Should a blog focus on only one topic or many?

19 April, 2016 / 6 Comments

Since changing up my blog and adding topics to it so that now it is more of a general blog – or at least doesn’t only focus on books now – I’ve wondered about this. Is this a good idea? Or is it better to just focus on one topic? See, the thing with me is that I have many interests and I find myself wanting to share and talk about them. However, not every reader or follower of my blog is going to be interested in all of my topics: books, food/exercise, nails (and now pregnancy/parenting). Since starting this […]

Hey there everybody! I know, I know, it’s been FOREVER, right? Well, I have a reason for my very unexpected hiatus… Are you ready for it?… I’m PREGNANT! What? I know! It came as quite a shock to me and hubby as well. But, I suppose it is time for us to start a family that consists of more than just the two of us and our furry friends. We have been married almost 4 years, so sure! It’s time. Even though it was a surprise, we are definitely happy about it and cannot wait to start this new chapter of our […]
