Let me start out by saying HI FRIENDS!! I have missed you!
I have missed my little Whipped It Up community so much! I have still been “around” over the past little while answering your questions and lovely comments, etc. but I have not really been “around”.

I don’t have any one specific reason that I had to step back, we’re working through some big things right now and this year (after last year) almost feels MORE challenging.
I was stressing myself out to the point where my eyeball was quivering at one point. Obviously that is not healthy, albeit it did look hilarious in the mirror.
Eventually I was starting to come to the realization that we had gotten so busy I couldn’t hold a schedule. It was stressing me out so much that when I did post, it didn’t feel right, it was always rushed, and that is not how I want to run this site.
I want to produce high quality content that you will love, but I need to love it too!
What we have been up to
EVERYTHING.
We have been busy camping, visiting family, making new friends (Bernie has a girlfriend now!), dealing with some personal issues, and doing all the normal summer chores that come with owning a house.

Then throw in SELLING a house and you have got pure and udder chaos.
Yes, we have decided to sell our house so we can move forward with some other plans. (I am SO excited to share these plans, but that is for another day)
Out of the blue on our way home from my mom’s birthday this year, we started discussing what it would look like. I thought we had officially lost our minds. We decided on a rough listing date (it was about 5 weeks out from then) and I pulled out the calendar, we would have one day, ONE DAY at home to get it ready.
Somehow we pulled off packing up half our junk and making the house pretty enough to list and we listed it.
Moving Forward
I have thought a lot about how I want this site to run moving forward and I NEED it to be on a schedule. That is just the person that I am, I need structure, I need a schedule. I have an idea of what I want it to look like right now, but I will switch it around if I need to.
I have spent the last month updating, planning, and scheduling content. And I am happy to announce that as of TODAY we are officially back!
I am really excited for what is coming to the website and I hope that you are too!
I would love to hear how you are doing and how your summer is going. Drop a comment below and let’s chat!
Xo, Jess
