So, I've been a fail blogger lately, but I PROMISE I have an excuse. Most importantly though, I am back! I had planned to take my hiatus until August 1st, but I'm feeling ready to dive back in. I will be overloading this lil' blog with reviews and features in the coming weeks to catch back up, but here are my excuses for being MIA.
A) I had a self-imposed timeframe in which I had to finish my manuscript revisions and submit RACE. The process has begun. Oh joy.
B) I've been working on a career change, and I'm SO excited to say I'm heading over to World Travel Holdings on August 6th!
C) I moved right before BEA, and I never really had a chance to settle into the new apartment. It's still a work in progress.
D) I've been busy having my a$s handed to me at CrossFit Free every single day so that I can be strong enough to compete. Proof? See below.
Regardless, I'm back. I'll have my regular Waiting on Wednesday post tomorrow, and I'll be back on track with reviews and such, too! Missed all your sweet faces.
Glad to have you back! Good luck with everything. :)

ReplyDeleteWow, you've been busy! No wonder you haven't been around! I thought maybe you were getting ready for the wedding. I couldn't remember if you told us when you were getting married. But I had no idea you had your manuscript ready!! Exciting news, almost as good as getting married or more, not sure! New job, new apartment, getting the body in shape, Congratulations for all the changes!!
ReplyDeleteHeather
Thanks, doll! Unfortunately, we called the wedding off, but thinks are always looking up, and I'm SUPER glad to be back :)))
ReplyDeleteSo glad to see you back! I've thought about doing Crossfit but I'm not sure if I'd be into it. I like just chilling out on an elliptical too much. I've spent most of this year doing yoga since I chalked up the mega bucks for a membership at a yoga studio. I'm planning on joining a regular gym when I move to Montana. I'm looking forward to having a mixture of cardio and yoga.
ReplyDeleteGlad that you're back, Melissa! Sounds like you've been busy and have gotten a lot done during your blogging break. Congrats on the career change, and best of luck with your manuscript :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes life gets in the way of plans, but go you with the crossfit! Glad you're back :)
