Hi. My name is Kelli and for some reason it is hard for me to write (or in this case, type) my thoughts out. Especially when it comes to sharing them with the world.

I haven’t posted anything in 3 months so I thought I might write a little life update.

I feel like my whole personality here lately has been taking care of my mom’s dogs, reading and working. Sometimes I splash in some fun hobbies or activities.

My favorite hobby is reading. I have read 45 books so far this year. Last year and this year I have made time for reading. I’ve loved it for as long as I can remember, but after high school I hadn’t made time for it.

I read my physical books, on my kindle and sometimes an audiobook. One of my goals for this year is to get through some of my physical TBR. I have over 200 unread books, but I have read 9 of them so far this year. I am hoping to get at least 6 more in. — which seems like a big jump, but if I put my energy into it instead of my kindle books then I can do it. Maybe. Of the books I have read, 3 of them are physical books that I borrowed from someone else. (Not included in the other 9 physical books I’ve read).

Two other hobbies I have is writing (for my book) and playing video games. I haven’t done much of either here lately. After work and taking care of my mom’s dogs, I have been so exhausted. I’ve been taking a lot of naps.

Although I do admit that some of why I haven’t been playing video games is because a roommate has taken over my office. For some reason I don’t really want to play my PC outside of that room.

We only have a roommate right now (and have for a couple months) because one of our friends can’t find a place to rent. I’m hoping he does find a place soon. I don’t really mind him at the house, but at the same time, I would like my space back.

I want to really get back into my book writing. I currently have two WIPs. A zombie apocalypse book and a biker romance are in the works. I am hoping to get back to it since my life is starting to calm down.

Taking care of my mom’s dogs has taken up a lot of my time. She has been on vacation for over a month. I’m not really happy about it, but she won’t listen. For a month and a half, she took two with her, but she left her two outside dogs. I’ve made one of them an inside dog. She did come back for like 12 hours, and now I have one of the inside dogs too which is fine because I missed her.

Other than all that, I’ve celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday, my birthday (28 🥳), my pa’s birthday, went on a trip to see family, and started working out again.

As of yesterday, I just started a new 30 day challenge where I walk at least 10,000 steps a day. Since I didn’t go on my walk yesterday, I had to jog in place for a while before going to bed last night. A month from now I plan on making a post where I’ve kept up with my steps every day and weekly weigh-ins/thoughts.

This is pretty much it for an update. I’ve been busy, but I feel like it’s the same things all the time. The holidays are coming up, and I am hoping to be able to go to a pumpkin patch, see some Halloween lights, eat some good thanksgiving food and enjoy Christmas time!

See you in the next post!
