Q1 [January, February, & March] Recap 2023

OOF. Not only is this late for March, but it’s also a month late for February and TWO months late for January. I mean look at the photo, it’s Barnaby (super shaggy) very confused about why the tree we randomly had in the house has to go away. That’s how late this post is. Barnaby is now almost 70 lbs—so much for being a mini—and is still bringing comedy, joy, and life to us daily 😀 We try to post on Insta for him, but that’s even lagging at the moment.

2022 Year-End Recap

Snapshot of Goodreads "My Year in Books" with 22,935 pages read and 85 books read"The most shocking thing this year is that I was able to read anything after June 30. Between work being ridiculous love the summer, long-delayed pandemic vacations, and starting school again I’m shocked I read as much as I did.

So, when I finally sat down to write my recap post sometime around the 15th or 16th I just thought “Nah, I’ll combine November and December and give myself a reprieve.” Now, in early January, I’m not sure that was the best idea—thanks past-Geoff, thanks a lot.

October Recap 2022

It’s weird writing this a week into November. I was doing so good about keeping up but the end of October and the beginning of November has been long and exhausting. School is picking up with shifting from fall one to fall two classes and midterms and the reading is no joke. And that doesn’t even take into work ALWAYS picking up around this time.

September Recap 2022

I got a little more reading done in September than I did in August, but only because I leaned into romances. This academic reading is no joke ya’ll—if I added that in you’d think all I did was read for the entire month! It also didn’t hurt that we were on vacation for the first week or so of September so I got plenty of reading and knitting done without adorable puppy interruptions.
