Hello! I know a couple of posts ago I mentioned I was going to try and make my posting schedule every Monday and Wednesday. I have been so busy I have had no time to post anything. For now, I'm not going to have a set posting schedule. When I have time to write and type my post, I will try my best to get it out that day! God only knows when I will be posting!  I hope everybody understands how hard it is to make a set posting schedule because random things come up.  I will hopefully get/have a set posting schedule by fall. Many Blessings, Maddie <3
