Links I Love Week 48
This week had highs and lows. I made my first Thanksgiving away from my family, something I never thought would happen. My mom walked me through turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce over Facetime and I have to say, it turned out great! My niece figured out how to call me on her own from my sister’s phone and add my dad so we had some good long Facetime chats. I am working on my family list of gifts this week and getting my holiday shopping done early. As a small business owner, I know how important these next few weeks are. You can see my small business guide here.
