Life Update: I Moved

I know not everyone reads the life updates but I do enjoy going back and reading them. I had a good streak going and disappeared for over two months! Story is, I moved!

It was quite sudden my boyfriend went to an interview two towns over on a Friday in January. Started on the Monday and by Tuesday we realized we needed to move!

Moving was a whirlwind of finding a place, viewing it, applying, and then packing up our lives and actually moving. I have hands down the best friends in the world as the move went so well.

The good news is I’m finally moved in and relaxed and ready to continuing updating the website. I have continued to read in my down time so I have quite a few series to review.

To all new guests: Welcome! To all old friends thank you for supporting this hobby of mine.
