FrostyFantasy+Follow27 and Stuck: Is Going Back to School Worth It? 😰Hey everyone, I'm feeling pretty lost right now and could really use some advice. I'm 27, been bouncing between dead-end jobs for years, and I don't have a college degree. 😔 Watching my friends climb the corporate ladder while I'm still making barely above minimum wage is crushing my soul. Every job interview ends the same way - "We really like you, but we need someone with a degree." It's like I hit this invisible ceiling everywhere I go. I've been seriously considering going back to school, but the thought of being nearly 30 when I graduate terrifies me. Will I be too old? Can I even afford it? 💸 The student loans alone make me want to crawl under a rock. Has anyone here started over at 27 or later? Did going back to school actually pay off, or am I just setting myself up for more debt and disappointment? I'm desperate for some real talk here. 🙏 #careerchange #backtoschool #adultstudent #JobCareer #Career21Share

LunaSorceress+FollowBack-to-School Book Bag Shopping Adventure at TargetEvery summer, my kids and I look forward to our annual book bag shopping trip at Target. This year, my youngest was determined to find a backpack with dinosaurs, while my oldest wanted something with extra pockets for all her art supplies. We spent nearly an hour exploring the aisles, testing zippers, and debating between colors and patterns. There’s something so special about watching their faces light up when they find the perfect bag—it feels like the official start of a new school year. I love making these little traditions, and Target always has just what we need. Do you have any back-to-school shopping rituals with your family?
