May Recap 2020

Over sized bowl with a partially eaten salad sitting on top of a laptop.Another month of being home—this really hit home when I went to grab photos for this recap post and they were all home-based . . . again. It’s hard to believe that I’ve been working from home full time eleven weeks now, but not that hard anymore. With Tim being in healthcare and working directly with COVID-10 patients we’ve been a lot more cautious than a lot of people we know (more for their sake than ours). Thankfully, it hasn’t been too trying because we’re both pretty introverted.

April Recap 2020

Holy, reading Batman! I read 12 books this month thanks to a hot streak of MM romance novels and I’m astounded at that number.

Aside from reading I’ve spent time knitting, baking, and, over the last week, obsessively playing Animal Crossing. I also dug out my DVD case because I was desperate to watch Pride and Prejudice (2005) and it was only streaming on one service we don’t have.

Like so many others I’ve had to transition from going to work five days a week to working from home and it has been an interesting adjustment.

I have spent way too much time on Zoom calls, but at least some have been with friends (right).

January Recap 2020

legs in shorts with water and sun in the distanceJanuary has been a weird month. It’s been over 70°F and close to 0°F a couple of times, I’ve been sick, we went to a travel fair, and I’ve knit a lot. I’m still trying to figure out where it went, but mostly looking forward to being on a cruise ship heading to the Caribbean in less than two weeks 😀

I’m trying to read a few shorter works so that I can have some posts published while we’re on vacation without internet access for a week, and more importantly I’m trying to figure out what books I’m going to take with me!

2019 Year-End Recap

snap shot of Goodreads year in reviewI’m six months from hitting 10 years of blogging on this site. That’s an achievement in and of itself. I’m sure that recap will be more interesting than this one as I’ve kept this one to mostly stats and facts ranging for the 2019 calendar year.

Overall most of my stats were up on the reading front. I think that’s from having a job that I’m enjoying with a great team and finally being able to relax a bit in my non-work life. I’ve also spent time reading more graphic novels and young adult novels (hey numbers boost :-D)
