2020 Year End Wrap Up

First and foremost, apologies for the delay in this post and my recent unannounced hiatus. I’m moving in two weeks (less now actually, more like ten days), have started my new work schedule in which I have zero full days off a week, and also it was my wedding anniversary yesterday so I took the evening off entirely to be with my husband. Now, let’s jump in!

Wrap Up

What a crazy year this has been… The past few months have not been great for the blog, due to my having to work so much and not really having the time or energy to work as hard as I did in the beginning of the year. Remember when I was unemployed and just spent eight hours a day on blog stuff? Good times. I genuinely do kinda miss those days…
