The pot is now $24,710

Hey friends, Just wanted to pop in and say sorry for my absence this month. I knew before we began our cross country trip full of weddings, births, birthdays, hosting, and travel— lots of travel, that it was going to be difficult to juggle my work schedule.
Many of you said that it was ok, that you wanted to continue with the same group even if I wasn’t as active. I started a new game feeling like I’d still be able to juggle it while keeping up with IG, FB, email, website, book design, DM’s, homeschooling, being a mom, wife, sister, friend, and content creator not knowing all the hidden things this month would have in store.
Like extreme extended family drama. Police calls, arrests, figuring out the ins and outs of filing for divorce, child support, cheating scandals, domestic abuse, and much more. To make it clear, this has nothing to do with Brady and I. But it did involve people very close to me and I was called upon on numerous occasions to be there to help, research, and offer support.
I feel that I owe you an explanation. I’m not simply sitting around socializing all day, neglecting my commitments. I understand people are disappointed, rightfully so but my family will always take precedence and it’s been everything I can do to keep myself together.
I’m running on empty. My energy completely zapped. My heart completely broken. So please, forgive me for not being more active in here these last couple weeks. Next month we’ll be back home and I have no plans to travel again until the Fall.
I plan to keep my head down and shed the remaining pounds I have to shed and will have a lot more time to be present here.
I hope you can accept my apology and know that this was an anomaly.

Well, I've only made it to 33% of my goal, so I don't think I'll be winning this game unless I really step it up. BUT that's better than I've done in months. Baby steps. 👶

I messaged our host Brittany @instantloss on Instagram, asking she had been MIA on here. I wish I took a screenshot of it but basically said they’ve been busy traveling, birthdays etc.
