Welcome September

I’m back joining in on the 10 on the 10th and this month it’s all about September. It’s not my favorite month. I think it’s because I’m still not used to the back-to-school schedule yet and I do not like cold air. I think I lowkey have seasonal depression and it starts to set in during September. Every year I say I’m going to try to do better and every year I still get own and out. I said to myself this year I’m going to be ok if I’m not ok and will still push through. Take a nap when I can say no more often and get my warm blankets ready. Without further ado welcome to September.

Hmmm Unplugged. It’s something I need to do more of especially with social media. I try my best to unplug on Sundays. I call it my non crank day where I don’t crank my car up at all and I go nowhere. I sit in my bed all day and watch all the tv and eat all the stuff I don’t eat in the weekdays like this Kind bar that I love so much lol.

Why is it that when people are asked what they would bring to a deserted island, they never answer ‘a boat’? I get a phone, a book, etc but never a boat. Ask someone what they would bring to a deserted island and see what the answer is.

Tell us about a favorite September memory

I found out I was pregnant with my second in September many many years ago. My period didn’t come on and I don’t miss a period unless I’m pregnant. Of course nothing was planned and I had already had a 3 year old. We were going through a financial rough spot and was down and out until I got pregnant it was a happy moment.
