HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY WEEKEND

Mothers-day-weekend-end-of-the-week-thoughts-The-Kristen-Diary-blog

Happy Friday, friends! The blog post I had originally planned for today has been postponed due to technical difficulties (literally though— my computer basically died with that dreadful question mark folder.) The last time this happened to my old Mac I was in college and to say I had a nervous breakdown would be an understatement, lol. Several years later and no longer a college student reliant on a laptop, it’s not as catastrophic. I would say it’s a must have in terms of blogging, however luckily I can still commute from my phone 😉

I also have a new laptop I’ve been meaning to setup and while I’m a little ashamed it’s just been sitting in the box for several weeks, the universe is finally giving me a little kick in the butt. Sometimes we all need a little nudge in the right direction, no? I’ve been putting it off solely because of the Apple ID/five devices limit, lol. I’m pretty sure I’m either at or near five devices so I wasn’t sure whether to try and transfer my data from the old laptop or just start from scratch. It looks as if the latter has been decided, lol. Thankfully I don’t have anything too important on it that I need to keep! 

Also another positive is that I get to chat with you today instead ☺️ It’s been a pretty long week so I’m ready to relax. It’s also a holiday weekend so Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mamas out there. I don’t know how ya’ll do it- it’s definitely not for the faint of heart. I’m very grateful to have an amazing Mom to celebrate on Sunday but regardless of your situation, my thoughts are with you. Holidays can be tricky when it comes to family, relationships or if you’re missing loved ones. Sending you all my love this weekend and hoping you’ll take some time to relax and be extra kind to yourself.

Other than working tomorrow and spending time with my family, I don’t have too much planned this weekend. On a silly note, one thing I’ve been dying to do is rewatch The Longest Ride. Somebody posted a clip from the movie on Tik-Tok and it’s been on my mind ever since. I used to LOVE watching it and haven’t seen it in several years. I can’t handle a lot of the sadness that comes with Nicholas Sparks but this one is a goodie. Such a cute, heartfelt story. I’ll definitely be setting up my new computer too!! 🤣

Have a great weekend!
