Bring back the blog!

 3,274 days later, and I'm ready to post. 

I was going for a dramatic YA lit first line, and I'd say I nailed it. 

Where have the Fishers gone since I was home with my babes but looking for my first teaching job?

-I taught high school English for 6 years in Sedalia, 1 year in Grain Valley, 1/2 a year in Odessa.

-The babies from 2016 are now 16, 14, and 12 (in 11 days).

-I did a stent in copywriting at home for 8 months (still ongoing at afishercopywriting.com) 

-Landed a sweet gig overseeing the Writing Center at my alma mater.

The changes have been plentiful, but God has show grace and kindness through it all. My family has lived in 6 different towns over the course of the last 16 years and we will likely see the repeat of my hometown in the next 6 years or so after our children all graduate high school. 

Our wonderful church family, my mom, and the university I work at are all in the same town. We hope to find our final home there :) Someday.

So why come back to blogging after this many years? A couple reasons . . . (apparently I'm in a listing mood because here comes another one) . . . 

👉documentation of my life - I used to order yearly blogging books and plan to bring that back.

👉a writing avenue that isn't my book  - I want to write, but sometimes I need a break from my characters.

👉lastly....I'm pretty tired of reels and goofy videos with ZERO substance! I want to see something worthwhile. Will that be my blog? LOL Who knows! But it will be authentic. 🤷

Here's what you can expect from the blog going forward:

-updates on my Faster Way to Fat Loss Journey

-novel updates (yes, I'm trying to finish the book I started 11 years ago)

-basement renovations

-something that isn't a reel/TikTok

And beyond that, you can expect still photos on my Insta. 

Old school!
