mid-week round-up

What have you been up to, sweet friends? Chet and I went to Mississippi over the weekend to visit with his mom and family friends at a lake. It was so serene! We ate a bunch of delicious food, caught some fish, and enjoyed good company. Hope you have a splendid week, and here are some links I thought you might want to check out…

I monitor myself online all the time. I worry about the generation below us, who grew up in social media, like my cousin (19) who uses her full legal name as her Instagram handle. I mention things like “when you apply for a job and they look you up,” but she’s in that “knows everything” phase of life and you can see it just go right through her like I’m some dinosaur (at 32) and just “don’t get it.” I’m afraid she could be in for a rude awakening, even if her content is PC…it’s just not a good idea.
