  • Sometimes I hate being a SAHM

    I took a little hiatus. It’s hard juggling all the different hats, applying for jobs, and still maintaining personal projects. That isn’t even including time for self-care.

  • Books that got me back into reading

    Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog! Today I’ll be delving into the books that got me back into reading. I feel like many people in my age group, I was a reading fiend growing up and then I stopped reading for 10 plus years. It wasn’t until 2022 that I got back…

  • Six Years? Already?
