I’m joining Anne from In Residence today for her monthly “Currently” link up. I’m also sharing the linky for Local Tourist, which is a monthly link up I do with Dara from Not In Jersey. I’m so behind on things lately – I was supposed to share my August local adventures yesterday. I don’t know if I’ll have a full post or not – so the linky is at the bottom of this one in case you want to share yours!
Currently: September 2021
Beginning: to plan my next Favorite Things party. I held one this past July, which I do plan on posting about soon, but I’m having another at the end of September and it’s going to be 90’s themed. I can’t wait!
Ending: most nights early, cuddling my cat. It’s been nice to get some extra sleep and you know I always love hanging out with my Charlie boy. It does mean missing some shows and I know even more will be starting up again this Fall so I’ll have to figure that out. If I don’t watch things “live”, I tend to not keep up well.
Loving: TikTok. It took me awhile to get on the app, but I’m kind of obsessed with just scrolling through these videos. Most aren’t very long and they are a mix of interesting, funny, silly, thoughtful, emotional. You’re more than welcome to Follow Me on TikTok if you like!
Picking: out all the things I want to do this Fall. It’s my favorite season, and Halloween is my favorite holiday, and there’s always a ton of events around where I live. I’m hoping to get to as many as I can.
Posting: Not as much lately. I know I’m not the only one who is just tired and overwhelmed. There’s a lot going on in the world, and I’m anxious about various things. I’m trying to do fun things and see friends when I can, so it’s not all bad, by any means. I’ve also been going to bed earlier most nights, which is good, but it doesn’t leave a ton of time to do things like blogging. I’m hoping to get better at posting ahead this Fall though, as things are only going to get busier.

I had a favorite things party a few years ago and it was so much fun! Halloween is my favorite holiday too!

I need to get better at posting too. The weight of the world & all….
I cant get into Tik Tok… dont know why – maybe because I dont know what I’m doing – LOL
I am not a tik tok person though my kids are!
A favorite things party sounds so fun! Especially a 90s themed one!
I had to cut myself off from the news. It was getting overwhelming even if I don’t obsessively read it.
I can’t even remember when I’ve watched shows live – except for syndicated shows that are just on.
I hope you have a wonderful fall!

A 90s themed party sounds so much fun! I must say I haven’t got into TikTok but I’ve just recently got more into Instagram reels so maybe I should give TikTok another try!
I can relate to the tired and overwhelmed. I was feeling bombarded with grim news. I’ve cut myself off from the news and most social media for a while.
I have heard lots about those Favorite Things parties…will look forward to reading about yours. Sounds like a lot of fun!
I normally am not a huge fall fan but I feel like I’m really going to try to get into it this year. I want to take advantage of going outside more, maybe doing touristy type things, and just doing stuff as a family. I already bought Pep and Lu’s Halloween costumes (Pep is going as Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas and Lu is going to be a giraffe… lol).
Right there with you on the posting. Ugh, I have just felt less than motivated with all that is going on.
Hugs to you!
I was going to skip TikTok like I did with SnapChat, but once I saw all the authors that were on TikTok, and the adorable dog videos I couldn’t stay away. And it is fun to just scroll through short videos. I’m the same as you with if I don’t watch a show live I don’t always keep up. But then right now I don’t know if there are a lot of actual tv series on regular channels that I am even watching anymore. So many have moved, like the show Evil was on CBS, but it moved to Paramount Plus. I guess whenever Outlander comes back, I’ll do the weekly watch with that one. Oh well. Fall is my favorite season as well! And I can’t wait to start decorating!
Going to sleep early is such a good plan but you’re right in that you don’t get as much done at night.
I LOVE to go to sleep early, but I also get up at 5am or a little before to get my workout in most morning before the rest of the house wakes up. I’m excited about the Fall and Halloween, too! I am trying to decide on maybe a little family party for Halloween at home with some fun foods, movies, etc. since my kids are too old to trick or treat now.
