October Monthly Blog Review 2019

Well October turned out to be a very exciting month! The CrossFit Open started, my husband had his 31st Birthday, and of course Halloween! I am excited about this Monthly Blog Review and looking forward already to next month!

MOVIES/TV/ENTERTAINMENT

We finally went to the Movies and got to have a Day Date. We went to go see Joker and had a great time! Then we took Shamar to see Abominable. It was a great movie for young kids! 

We did get to have some fun at a few different festivals including one here in Kaiserslautern. We took Shamar to an inside play park as well! 

What’s happened in October with Me and this blog??

October had me smack dab in the middle of the third Trimester at Logan University for my Master’s in Nutrition and Human Performance. And I have had been working my butt off to keep these As in both of my current classes. 

As I have started to make new connections here and Germany and learn more about what it would entail to start my business here in Germany, I have learned so much. It really took me awhile to figure everything out with the legal aspect, including taxes.

What I have figured out is that since my business will be all on-line, at least to start, that I am in the clear when it comes to the government with us living in on-post housing. Lovely Military wife life. 

I also started researching platforms to not only sell my 28 Day Kick-Start Program as well as personalized training. I hope to launch it very soon! 

Wrap it up

So that is what is going on here! I hope you all enjoyed and learned from the content put out this month! What was your favorite things that you saw from me?

What would you like to see more of? 

I need your feedback!!

Until next time peeps!!
