I haven’t written since February. I feel like it would be weird to just start writing again and not even acknowledge the GIANT gap in posts. What has been going on over here is probably similar to your life:

Everything was moving along fine and then *BAM* a global pandemic hit. An actual GLOBAL pandemic! I am sorry, but WTAF!?! Overnight I became a school teacher for a 6 yr old and a 3 yr old (who shortly after turned 4). I was not one of the people that thought this was short lived. I felt like school was out until August and I needed to figure this all out. Then I went from no idea what to do to inundating myself with apps, blogs, websites, etc on how to teach these boys. I was totally over whelmed.

Another HUGE change is my husband who traveled 5 days a week was now grounded and at home ALL THE TIME. People were always like “Ah, that most be so hard having a traveling husband…”. Honestly, it works for us, we have our routines. I need alone time and it provided that. Now there is never alone time.

After adjusting to all of the above, I thought about writing, but I was scared. Putting stuff on the internet whether it be blogs or social media is scary! Everything has become so political. Things I never thought were political have become political, and everyone wants to argue with you. Sometimes they argue with you even when you agree with them, because you aren’t agreeing appropriately or something?

It is still crazy political, but I am no longer drowning, so I am venturing out. In this current climate, I can’t promise you will agree with everything I say. Thankfully, I mostly write on finance, so facts are facts, but I am reaching out to all of you again. I hope in some way I can help you, and I hope I can relieve some of my own anxiety by getting my thoughts out. Mostly, I hope you and your family’s are safe, healthy, and happy.
