My Goings-On in March: I now share so many details in my Sunday Posts about everything that’s been going on that it feels really redundant to share here as well. So I’m only sharing the most important things that happened this month. Here are the things stand out to me this month: Most of this month has been spent planning for future things… Vacation planning. We haven’t been on a vacation in almost two years, so […]
My Goings-On in February: I now share so many details in my Sunday Posts about everything that’s been going on that it feels really redundant to share here as well. And, I mean, mostly we’re just staying home. So I won’t share unless something exceptional happened during the month. Here are the things stand out to me this month: I turned 47! Yikes!! My blogoversary was on 1/31, but I posted my giveaway on 2/1. […]
My Goings-On in January: I now share so many details in my Sunday Posts about everything that’s been going on that it feels really redundant to share here as well. And, I mean, mostly we’re just staying home. So I won’t share unless something exceptional happened during the month. Only two things stand out to me this month: I finished my stint as a Cybils Awards round 1 judge and we picked our finalists in […]
As usual, I’ve adapted this from The Perpetual Page Turner’s End of Year Survey! 2020 READING STATS Number Of Books You Read: 147 Number of Re-Reads: 0 Genre You Read The Most From: Fantasy/Paranormal And this is my pathetic reading for the year. Can you guess when I started reading for the Cybils Awards judging? LOL! It’s a darn good thing I did the judging because I was in a crazy slump!! I mean, look […]
My Goings-On in November: Finally breathing a sigh of relief over politics. I mean, yeah, there are certain people who claim it’s not over yet, but it’s obviously way over. And I couldn’t be happier! Quarantining. We’re back to restrictions where you’re only supposed to leave the house if you have to. It’s not quite as strict as it was in the spring, but we haven’t really gone anywhere except to the grocery store. Writing. […]
My Goings-On in October: Biting my nails over politics. Please, please, please let this election turn out to be a good thing and let us get back to some kind of normal! Quarantining. We spent the last two weeks indoors because my daughter was exposed to COVID through her high school swim team. She tested negative, and it was no big deal, really. Let’s face it, we haven’t been going out much lately anyway. Basement […]
My Goings-On in September: Being miserable over politics. I think this may have been my #1 activity in September, honestly. I’ve had a hard time focusing on much when I know that our country is plummeting … fast, and it doesn’t feel like there’s any real end in sight. I mean, I’d like to think reason will prevail in November, but reason seems to have flown out the window lately. I find myself in tears over the news […]
My Goings On in August: Here’s what I accomplished in August: Not much blogging. As you’ve probably noticed, most weeks I’m only managing two posts—my Sunday Post and one other. And the Sunday Posts are mostly only making it up because I really hate the idea of missing someone’s birthday or blogoversary. Seriously, it’s the only thing keeping me posting, so I guess it’s good I include it! We brought my oldest to college! Jade […]
My Goings On in July: Here’s what I accomplished in July: We refurbished another cabinet, made two pet gates, created one more piece of junk art (a pup!), and made a decorative key holder for my husband. Lots of projects in July! I already posted pics of all of these (except the second gate, but it basically looks the same as the first). You can find the cabinet and gate in this Sunday Post and […]
My Goings On in June: Um, June happened, right? Like, honestly, it just pretty much passed me by in ALL ways except puppy and TV watching. I didn’t read. I didn’t write. I barely blogged. And, the worst thing is, it wasn’t because I just decided to give myself some time off, I just couldn’t do those things. Every time I picked up a book I’d fall asleep (puppy exhaustion). I couldn’t find any time or inspiration for […]
