Goodbye, April!


April was a mess of emotions. A conundrum of esoterica (yes, I just rewatched Series of Unfortunate events (the Netflix one, obviously) again--its a mood). But today, the sun is shining, and the birds are singing, and the sky is blue, and the grass is green, and there's a small breeze, and the possibilities of life seem bright and endless (aka the exact opposite of last month--and the first half of this month).


2024 Resolutions:

     (1) Don't stop reading
            (b) Complete Monthly Reading Challenge(s)
     (2) Make memories
     (3) Share love of books/writing
     (4) Be kinder to myself


(1) Books read this month: 36 (might get one more in there before midnight though).
    (b) Monthly Reading Challenge(s): Shape = Raindrop. Got some A-Z stuff recorded. Tried to catch up on the backlogs. 

(2) April Memories: I had dinner with my friends. I quit my job. I took a much needed self-care vacation into nature where I focused on healing, positive intentions, and planning my next steps. I tried not to feel guilty too, when I took some time to also binge tv or binge-read books. I started a few new adventures in the last day and a half (updates next month). I talked with my sister a lot (she was my rock this month; I wouldn't have survived March or April without her). 

(3) Posts this month (including this one): 23.

(4)  Ehh. I started eating less. There were a few days where I ate a lot of fruit. There were a few days where I ate a lot of gunk. Some days, I'm super hydrated, but more often than not, I'm barely making 40oz. But my mental health has gotten better as the month progressed, and that's what's most important to me at the moment. Hopefully soon, I can focus on my physical self as well.


Anyone still holding onto their resolutions?

Any exciting May reads?
