September was surprisingly relaxing for me, even with a packed family schedule! While my personal calendar was fairly light, my husband and kiddo were on the move non-stop. Between school, daily cross-country workouts, and AYSO soccer, our weeks flew by. Tuesdays and Thursdays were booked with U19 soccer practice in the evenings, while my husband and kiddo coached their U10 team on Monday and Friday afternoons. Add in several cross-country meets and soccer games scattered across the weekdays and weekends, and we were constantly on the go! If you follow along on Instagram, you’ve probably caught a few glimpses of our busy month.
On a quick note regarding the blog: I’ve officially decided to step away from Facebook. If you don’t want to miss out on deals, cover reveals, teasers, narrator announcements, and behind-the-scenes updates, make sure to follow along on Instagram instead!

Sounds like a pretty good month. I can’t step away from Facebook as I have so many people that I only talk to on there, friends, relatives, just not worth stepping away. I am trying to at least scroll through Instagram. more, but I feel like I don’t always see the posts, like yours, that I want to see.

Automated blog posts will still share to Facebook, but unscheduled content won’t. Since Facebook is capping link posts unless you pay, I’m shifting most of my updates to Instagram. Thanks for visiting, Lisa!
Sounds like a fantastic September. Panda is so adorable. I have to say, I too had a productive yet oddly relaxing September. I hope that continues into October!
I’m hoping for a productive yet relaxing October as well! Now that school has started and we’ve worked out our routine, things have definitely smoothed out. Thanks for visiting, Jen!
Sounds like a good month. I don’t blame you about stepping away from Facebook. The publishers want Instagram.
That’s so true! It really feels like Facebook is trying to make pages pay now (unlike personal pages). I’m not a fan of these recent changes at all, so I’m taking a step back. Scheduled posts will still auto-post, but everything else is moving to IG!
