Wow guys. I only posted 3 times in November! That’s the lowest month I’ve had since 2012, before I actually took this blog seriously (Except for the hiatus I took on purpose last November). This month I posted my monthly goals, a sponsored post about quality time with your spouse, and a huge post about our favorite dates in Ohio (which I’m really proud of). And that’s it!
The rest of my goals fell by the wayside too. But I’m not too worried about it. November was an exciting and eventful month. December and January will be more of the same so I’m severely cutting back on my goals. But let’s take a look anyway!
