I just finished reading What Lies in the Woods. I thought it was a good read 😊 I also love thrillers/mysteries and horror. My favorite Stephen King novel is definitely either The Shining or Pet Semetery, highly recommend them both!
Hi Fern! I wish i had cut the first set of blooms off of my strawberries like you did. I failed to do this and my first batch of strawberries came out deformed and inedible. I will remember this tip for next year!
For romance I HIGHLY recommend Nora Goes Off Script!!! I’m not usually a romance girly but this was so good I read it in 3 sittings🤓 I definitely added Our Wives Under The Sea to my Libby hold list!
Sucks you are still working with casetify though, proven to scam other youtubers. Look up the law suit, jerrry rig everything did a video on it. Shame :(
Listen. Fern. I have been subbed for so manys years and I rarely make comments but damn girl. As a fello vegan. Please please make some cooking video. That dish you explained at the start almost had me cooking! I need to try this
Oh, Glass Castles love tells me as a book lover with a rise above to excel memoir favorite category, I want to share 2 titles. First, The Color of Water by James McBride. Alternates his own story with his mom, and she is amazing. Second, I know Why The Caged Bird Sings, by Maya Angelou. It starts so slowly, I struggled at first but pushed through and it took off so hard that I couldn’t put it down and ran and got all her books. Which brings me to, what a great way to jump into exploring poetry for me. Understanding her so deeply after voraciously reading her autobiographies leveled it up. I’m so happy to find my favorite planty content person has a book channel too, it is like a heavenly present from my mom on her birthday. She was a heavy reader too
Budget advice: Do you have a business account that is separate from your personal account? That would help you stay organized between personal and business transactions. If you 'miss' having a paycheck you could even pay yourself on a regular schedule from the business account. This way you could get a paycheck and budget your personal expenses like you used to before you were self employed.
In relation to those yummy Tacos , have you ever tried roasted carrots ( cut into disks or into wedges) on Tacos?.....They are amazing....roast the carrots ( or pan sautee) until they are tender crisp...but a little caramelized........I cut into disks for quesadillas....and I cut into long wedges for Tacos or Barritos.....it just does something to the flavor.....especially when combined with sautéed onion and bell pepper for fajitas.....😎.....✌️💜💋
Beautiful place to go for a walk. We keep track of our business expenses using an Excel spreadsheet. We always update at the end of each month so the work doesn’t pile up 👍🇨🇦
I would love to read some spooky vibe books in summer. Please keep me posted. I need a weeks notice so I can go to town and the book. Thank you so much! Love Stephen king!
Omgosh I legit just bought that label maker at the beginning of may! 😂 Eek taxes!! 😮 the bane of my existence!! Do you know how to use Excel? Do you have excel? I make sheets on there for my clients to fill out and bring in or sometimes we fill them out together. Or…you could make a bullet journal. Write down expenses as they come in. Make a layout each week or month with each category (supplies, utilities, etc) and just fill in each time you buy something. Where do you store all of your bedding? I love good bedding and I’m struggling finding room for 109 blankets lol 😂 I so enjoy these sit down vlogs with you! So cozy and I feel like we are besties!! Thanks again as always ❤ Tamara
Ahh thank you Tamara 🫶 I was thinking of you as I was doing my tax stuff hahah. I don't really know how to use excel. I was using a google sheets template which I think is pretty similar. I definitely need to start keeping up with entering everything as it comes in, it just gets too confusing otherwise 😩 We have a tiny linen closet which stores our bedding. It's honestly a disaster, I need to organize it lol. It doesn't hold much, so we have stuff we don't use often stored in the basement. Thank youuuu, I always love reading your comments 🫶🥰
Thank you for bringing up taxes!! I’m self employed as well so I know how you feel, and totally forgot that today was the last day to pay my quarterly taxes so you helped me more than you can know!
I don't know if this is helpful or not, but my husband is self employed and he uses Wave (I think that is what it is called). It helps keep things organized
The Final Girl Support is definitely a Halloween read ! On my list too. I’m listening to The Housemaid is Watching by Freida McFadden 📚 summer vibes for are : This Summer Will be Different, The Paradise Problem, and Just for the Summer ..check them out and let 😊me know what you think .
Can I ask how old you are? You talk about being a nurse and you look like you’re barely out of high school! ❤ We all wish we could look that young! Love both your channels!
Hi Fern, I got so happy when you revealed that you were getting yourself an iMac, especially because you have mentioned it over and over again how you would love to have one and now you finally do! Really excited for you and for all the content you’ll create on it! :) 😊
In the past I've read S King books & the only one that really bothered me 😱was PetSemetay! I might read Jaws during shark week in July. Guess my next read will have to be the Wives Under the Sea. I have it. I didnt know u were a nurse! Me too- there are lots of planty nurses!
I absolutely DIE when you show where you get to walk 😍😍😍 It's the most beautiful and glorious scenery! I swear it's so amazing it looks unreal, like a fairy tale!
I LOVE Stephen King!! I have read SO MANY of his books! My favs are: The Stand, IT, Dreamcatcher, but, honestly the more I think about it, they are all my favs! Best thing about reading his books- you start catching little references to his other books in each one! In Dreamcatcher there is a reference to IT! I could go on and on and on, just buy more Stephen King books is all I have to say!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
