While I have tried to be cruelty-free the past few years, I haven’t taken it as seriously as I need to. Sometimes I felt like it took me too much time to research which brands test on animals, but is that a good excuse? No. I have decided that there’s no reason not to be cruelty free, so I’m no longer going to purchase any products that harmed animals to create.
I was tagged for these fall questions by Rambling Woman (check out her 10 Questions About Fall post too). I figured it would be a great post to write and publish right now to get in the fall spirit. Let’s get into the questions!
September was certainly a crazy month. Hurricane Florence hit the town I live in, and I’m still currently displaced due to the storm. While I missed having a consistent income, it was kind of nice to have a few weeks off of work. I was able to spend some time with my family and pets while working on my blog a little more. I also had more free time to read which doesn’t happen often.
The down side of the hurricane was all of the damage it caused. The storm didn’t affect me as much as most people, but I do have to transfer to a new apartment due to roof issues. I know a few people who ended up losing everything, and I feel terrible for them. There’s also downed trees everywhere along with some damaged buildings.
Whether it be for school, a job, or family, people tend to go their separate ways no matter how close you were to them. The friends you met for coffee every week will no longer be there to sit down and talk to, but that doesn’t mean you have to part ways forever! With all the technology available today, it’s easy to send a message or check on people via social media.
I’m one of those people who ends up working the summer away, and July was a prime example of that. I had many things on my to do list, so I basically took a mini-hiatus from this blog in order to sort out my life. Since I took care of so many things this month, however, I should be able to have more free time in the future!
