Time to rip off the band-aid.

I’m doing it. I’m leaving Facebook and Instagram.

I’ve been dreaming of leaving social media for a long time. I’ve only held on so long for two reasons. First, I felt like as a small business, I needed it. Second, while there are so many things I hate about social media and how it’s changed our world, there are a fair share of good things that have come from it. As with most things, there are both pros and cons. BUT, for me, the time has come.

I will, of course, still have my website. So you can always find me here. And I’m planning on blogging more frequently than in the past… with updates, deals, inspiration, and more! To make sure you don’t miss anything (like is so common with social media), I’ve added a subscribe button at the bottom of all my blog posts so you can sign up to get an email every time I post something on my little corner of the web here! And fear not, I don’t see myself posting any more than weekly (if that!)*.

I am also going to do a trial run with Bluesky, see what that’s about. If you’re there, find me, won’t you?

FYI I plan to post one final time on FB and IG today and leave it up for awhile. Hopefully my favorite people there will see it before I delete it and vanish into the ether. Haha.

Thanks for sticking with me! #youreverydayisworthit

xo, Anna

*Just a heads up: there is currently a known issue if you use Apple Mail… the pictures from the blog don’t show up in the email, but there is a link right at the top that says ‘read on blog’ — click on that to see my rantings in their entirety!
