The local news station posted this article about this girl in Indiana that took vows to be a consecrated virgin.
The wording in this isn’t that great and I find it interesting that secular news promoted this. I feel like they are just looking for clickbait and don’t read the comments they are mean.
On the other hand I do like that women are feeling called to this lifestyle. I did find a better article about her on a credible catholic site (OSV). You can read that here.
My friend Jamie got me into the game/app Fallout Shelter and over the past few days I have really gotten into the game. A few of us have a huge twitter conversation about it..many people eavesdropping on us probably think we’re crazy or are super confused!
None the less you have this shelter and you have to collect enough power, food, and water to keep everyone alive. In good catholic nature the first thing I did was get all the women pregnant.
I have a love/hate relationship with the summer. I love summer things like swimming and going to the beach but by this time of year I’m ready for a break in the weather. It also doesn’t help that my office gets warm since it is right off the kitchen.
Also I’ve barely gotten to the beach this summer because every time I have wanted to go it doesn’t just rain it POURS. Hopefully the rain will break and I’ll get there..soon…maybe. I need to learn to bring a change of clothes with me to work and go right after work since I work on the beach.
I’ve been working on scheduling doctors appointments this month. I know why I have avoided it for so long because it is a pain in the but. Trying to get doctors on the phone, finding ones that take your insurance, going for blood work (ouch), scheduling them around your work schedule.
But I’m getting it done slowly. Nothing is necessarily wrong with me (so far) I just haven’t gone in a long time so making sure everything is okay. But man adulting is HARD.
Last week I participated in Mama Kat’s Writers Link-Up. Every week she gives you about 5 topics to vlog or blog about. I am signed up for her emails but they were going to spam so I never got any of them.
Last weeks topic I wrote about was 10 Things I Learned From Reality TV and it was a lot of fun to write along with all the gifs I added. Go check it out!
I’ve been working on joining my Five Minute Friday friends and linking up with the Five Minute Friday prompt. It’s a good exercise for me that suffers from perfectionism. Lately I haven’t blogged a lot because in this saturated blogging world I feel like I have nothing to add so it’s frustrating for me sometimes even though I know my take on it will be different.
I also sometimes get super overwhelmed that everything that is involved. First you have to write. Then you have to find photos and edit them and add words then you have to share it on twitter, facebook, pinterest, etc. and hope that a few people see it.
Last week we blogged about the word LEARN. Go check it out!
My blog cleanup is still a work in progress. I’ve been working on sharing more things on my facebook page including a lot of fun buzzfeed articles. Make sure you are following me over on facebook to interact with me there.
And if you’re interested in freelancing articles and tips follow my virtual assistant facebook page.
Have a great weekend everyone! Visit Kelly for more Quick Takes!
YOu are right, adulting is hard. I want my Mommy! (my she rest in peace)
