Friday Five Currently | Week 8
Friday, is it you? It’s been a long week y’all. So long that it has me wishing I kept a stash of wine stocked somewhere in the back of my closet, but I don’t. Unfortunately, alcoholism runs in my family. Therefore, I enjoy alcohol in social settings or once a month for personal enjoyment. Never to self-medicate or numb my emotions, etc.
That being said, the holidays are coming up. So, I will be partaking in some wine sipping at family dinners. Leave me some suggestions for yummy white wines and any sweet red wines that you may have. Anyways, here’s to hoping things start to look up over the weekend.
Currently . . .
Glad | We started and survived our first week of our new virtual homeschool academic year. My son was excited to start back and kept asking when we were starting. I’m so glad that he’s eager to learn. This is a 360 from the beginning of last year’s school year. Honestly, I think he’s just become more confident in his skills and ability to learn and retain information.
Now my daughter on the other hand is already over school. She was not thrilled to start school this year. I can’t say that I blame her. Our Summer Break wasn’t the most exciting or fun. This definitely won’t be the case for next Summer Break. Mama is planning ahead.
And don’t get me started on how much more time it takes to edit hours of footage compared to less than 60 minutes worth of footage. It took me FOREVER!! When all is said and done, I’m proud of how my first day in the life vlog turned out. I definitely learned a lot from this experience and look forward to improving.

While I have the reading challenges pretty much nailed down. I’m still trying to think up a cool and catchy name for my readathon. Hopefully something will come to me soon because Fall will be here next month.
I’m also reading Dread Nation by Justina Ireland and enjoying Iron Fist. I know I’m so behind on watching Iron Fist, but I couldn’t get into it when it first came out. So better late than never, right?
Whelp, that’s all I have for this week. Wish me luck as I do my second weekend vlog! I’m hoping that I won’t forget to close it out and actually get some reading footage. Enjoy the weekend y’all!
