Life Lately September 2026

September 2026 has been a little bit of an up-and-down month, filled with different emotions, and life changes. Through it all, I’ve been learning to slow down, be present, and appreciate the little things. One of my favorite parts of this month has been spending more time away from screens and social media and reconnecting with the world around me. I’ve been enjoying long walks, journaling, reading, and simply giving myself space to unplug and recharge. Taking a digital detox and spending less time online has been a refreshing reminder that there is so much joy to be found in everyday life beyond the screen. As September comes to an end, I’m embracing the lessons, enjoying the slower moments, and looking forward to a fresh start this fall.

Currently Eating

September has been all about cozy comfort foods, seasonal flavors, and finding little new favorites to enjoy. I’ve been leaning into the start of soup season with warm, comforting bowls of homemade soup that feel perfect for the cooler fall weather. I also had fun exploring a new coffee shop and trying something different, which is quickly becoming one of my favorite ways to spend a slow morning.

Currently Watching

The Gilmore Girls streak continues into September. I’ve also been watching plenty of random reality TV shows on Netflix and Hulu whenever I’m in the mood for something easy, entertaining, and completely binge-worthy. One thing I’m especially excited about is seeing Verity in theaters soon.

Life Behind the Scenes

I’ve been spending more time reading, journaling, and getting outside to enjoy nature instead of constantly being on my phone or in front of a screen. Reading has become such a relaxing way to unwind, while journaling gives me a chance to reflect, clear my mind, and document little moments from everyday life. I’ve also been enjoying more walks outdoors, fresh air, peaceful surroundings, and simply being present in nature.
