    My YouTube Channel!

    Hi, friends! I don’t think I ever officially introduced my YouTube Channel on the blog but what better time than now because I shared my first YouTube video of 2022 today! I took a break for a couple of months but filming and editing this video reminded me how much I enjoyed creating video content. YouTube has been the social media channel I have used the longest (well, other than Facebook) and it has been a constant love for me over the last decade. I started making YouTube videos last year because I love watching them. Taking a lunch break with a side of a fun vlog is one of…

    Life felt good this past week! I ended up having social plans almost every weeknight, which is pretty unusual for me but a lot of fun. The weekend was the perfect amount of activities for me, and I feel rested and calm to face the new work week. MONDAY Starting off the week on a wild note, I went to a concert at Cat’s Cradle. To be honest, it snuck up on me and I didn’t stay until the end but it was a fun evening out and I appreciated Cat’s Cradle requiring and actually checking vaccination cards.

    How Last Week Went: I had Monday off for President’s Day, which was a first in my life I think haha. While it was a short week, work was pretty busy and I had a couple of late nights. It felt good to be productive though so I’m not complaining. The weekend was busy in a good way and I got to tackle some big boring things I’ve been meaning to, including transferring and purging old photos from 2021. This is something I did for the first time at the end of 2020 and I loved looking at photos from the past year and having a clean slate makes my…

    TUESDAY I took off work on Monday and spent most of the day reading and doing things around the house, including purging my notes from college classes! It felt good to cross some things off my list and set me up for a great work week, especially since it was a four-day work week! Tuesday was a normal workday, a little bit of catch and some meetings. Nicola Bathie Sarah Pearl Headband WEDNESDAY I had all but one meeting cancelled or rescheduled on Wednesday so it ended up being a pretty slow day, which I probably needed after a day of catching up on Tuesday.
