I am loving exploring Cincinnati.This is such an amazing city full of history and I am happy to call it home.
Looking forward to actually getting into our rental house so it feels less like a vacation.

I have been following the adventures of Chris Weigand while he films American Blogger.I *love* the airstream and the new bloggers I've discovered through him.
Follow him on instagram (@chrisweigand) or check out the hashtag americanblogger.

Having said that, I need an instagram intervention.It has gotten to the point that I have to leave my phone in another room.
Otherwise, I become a stalker or over-poster.
The first step is admitting you have a problem.
Thanks summer salad looks amazing!!!! I am a total over-poster on IG... You might have a problem if you post something and then delete it because you think I have posted too much today, I'll save that for tomorrow. ;)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you are enjoying Cincinnati! I bet you are ready to get to your rental house though!
ReplyDeleteThe over posting thing is hilarious, there are a lot of us out there, you're not alone!
ReplyDeleteI have an Insta addiction too. :) One thing that has helped me not to post too much is to take a picture outside of Instagram and edit in the PicTapGo app -- so I'm still taking pictures of my everyday but not sharing 500 of them a week. Lol.
ReplyDeleteHave a a great weekend!
