Hi, guys!!!!! Sorry for the overuse of exclamation points, but I am so excited to be back. Yes, you read that right, I’m back! As many of you know, a few weeks ago I posted about taking a break. I really didn’t want to take a break but I am so glad that I did. I’ve missed blogging but I’m so happy I took a break, I needed it. Before I get too much farther into this post, I want to say a huge thank you. I received a lot of supportive comments and I really, really appreciate it. Here’s what I’ve been up to since my break…
School. Lots and lots of school.
My biggest reason for taking a break was wanting to complete my school course and get certified. And guess what? I’m one assignment away from that! I can’t believe that. I’ve worked really hard and I can’t wait to finish. I’m so close I can taste it! So I will probably finish that assignment and submit everything in the next few days, I should be certified by the end of April. Yay!
Scheduling/writing posts
I’ve been working on some new posts and improving my content. I have about a week of posts scheduled, which is a big deal for me. I have a huge list of things I want to write about, mostly reviews. If there’s anything that you’d like to see me write about or a tutorial you’d like to see me do, please let me know! You can leave a comment or contact me.
Improving pictures
As far as improving my content, it’s mostly with pictures. I think I’m getting the hang of flatlays and Canva! I’ve started using a few backgrounds and I’m editing my pictures a bit, I think it makes a big difference. I’m also trying to make “Pinterest worthy” featured images, which is way harder than it sounds. Here’s an example of a ‘flatlay’ that you’ll see in my next post, compared to a past ‘flatlay’. I think it looks pretty good!
Personal life
As far as my personal life goes, I feel like I’ve made progress. I kind of have a feeling like I’ve done a lot but I’ve done nothing at the same time if that makes any sense. I think I’m just too hard on myself. But I have got a lot of things done. One thing I’m excited about, I got new glasses! Three pairs to be exact. They’re the same style just in different colors.

I quite like them, I think they really suit me. They’re a lot different from the pair I was wearing before. I bought them from an online store that I love, and I will be doing a review on that brand/these glasses soon!
A few days ago I went to the dentist and found out I need to have most of my wisdom teeth removed. I’m a bit scared about it but I’m just trying to remind myself it’s a really minor surgery that will prevent problems in the future. On the bright side, I didn’t have any cavities, yay!
Again, thank you all for your support! I really do appreciate it. I can’t wait for you guys to see my new posts, I think you’ll like them a lot.
Reminder – I post Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
Welcome back! You look lovely in your new glasses, really love the blue ones! Congratulations on almost finishing school and good luck with your final unit. Look forward to seeing your new posts xxx

Your flatlays look great! It’s also awesome that you have some posts scheduled in advance. I’ve been struggling with ideas for my blog lately, so I haven’t had anything ready in advance. I’ve just been winging it.
