Link Love September: American Gothic, Money Stories & Ghost Tours
This month has been a whirlwind for me, packed with a trip to Washington DC (more on that in a future post!), a big birthday, and lots of time spent with friends and family. I also observed Happier Labor Day, giving myself the chance to evaluate new professional development opportunities and figure out ways to be more productive at work. September has been a fun month, but I can’t wait to start attending fall festivals and start experiencing some cooler weather. How has your September been?
To all of my friends who celebrate, L’Shana Tova and Chag Sameach! Wishing everyone a very happy year ahead.
