Friday Finisher 9/7/18

Published: Sep 7, 2018 Β· Modified: Mar 11, 2019 by Rebecca Pytell Β· This post may contain affiliate links.

First week in the books! Not so bad, but then again, the first week of the semester is never to "content heavy"! Just have to make it through to the middle of December and I'm home-free (I totally believe the Fall semesters are shorter and easier than Spring semesters). Getting back into the structured routine of "back to school" can feel good and (annoying) at the same time, but I guess I should savor these last few months of "childhood" before the 100% real world begins, eh?
