I'm Back!

Back in August I took a short hiatus from ReadersKitchen as I tried to get my life in order, move, prepare for teaching a new grade, travel, and think about how I could bring some excitement back into the project for me.

My instagram hiatus lasted a short while (and my posting since then has been sporadic at best). However, my blog hiatus has taken much longer than intended.

Some updates on what I've done in that time:

- took up, quit, and took up again some bullet journaling in an attempt to track and manage my anxiety and stress

- read very few books as I attempted to teach 5th graders

- moved and color coordinated my bookshelves (see above)

- hung out with the world's most adorable nephew two times

Going forward, I'm really hoping I can be better about posting as well as working on my writing. Money is tight right now so my hope is that I can focus less on purchasing all kinds of book merchandise (wishful thinking?) and more on cultivating my own hobbies.

Looking forward to seeing a lot more of you in the future!
