Weekend Wrap-Up: May 19th, 2019
Alright, so my “blogging more consistently” thing is off to a shaky start – I’M DOING MY BEST, OKAY? 😂 All joking aside, I spent a large portion of the last week in bed with a fever, so I’m still on track! I took some time off work and doing so helped a lot, as I was able to rest and recuperate as much as I needed to before getting back to normal.
I’m going to be taking a page from my friend Destiny’s blog handbook – she’s honestly blog/bookworm/human #goals, and if you’re not already following her, what the heck are you waiting for?! Destiny has a weekly recap called the Sunday Post that’s hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviewer and the post serves as a little easy-to-digest lump of the previous week’s posts & happenings, as well as what’s coming up next on the blog. I love this idea, but needed to alter it a little since my posting isn’t always… well, consistent, lol.
So here’s the first version of my Weekend Wrap-Up, which will (probably) be posted every Sunday! Some weeks I’ll also have a “What I Made” section with artwork or craft stuff, yay! Maybe even a food/baking section if I make my way into the kitchen…? (Ha.) I don’t know, let’s wing it!
