Spring is finally here, I’m eating all the Girl Scout cookies, and it’s finally light outside past 6:00 pm. March is always an interesting month. The weather is completely unpredictable – we’ve had a couple of days where the sun is shining and the temperature has reached into the 60s and then it’s raining and gloomy the next day – and I can’t believe we’re already going into the second quarter of the year. Here is my monthly wrap-up of some of the things I’ve been up to in March.
What I’m reading:
I just finished reading a cozy mystery novel called Up To No Gouda where the main character owns a grilled cheese restaurant. I love the play on words with gouda and good and this got me thinking about titles of books, which got me thinking about titles with puns in them. I love a good pun. So I started looking for other books with puns in the title and there are so many! Check out this article on Book Riot for more. I just think that, if a book has a pun in the title, it’s going to be great.
What I’m watching:
I watched Bad Vegan on Netflix and I have to confess, for all that we heard about this woman who was conned by a man who said he could make her dog immortal, I definitely thought we would hear more about the dog. There were so many photos of the dog but nothing about how he was to be immortal. I was a bit disappointed.
Where I’m traveling:
At the beginning of March, I took a trip down to Florida and went to Disney World. I’ve only been to Disney World once and it was when I was in elementary school, so it had been many, many years since I visited (I’ve been to Disneyland numerous times). It was so much fun. My family and I went to all the parks and went on so many rides and I ate so much popcorn! Why does theme park popcorn taste so good? Disney had relaxed its face mask requirements by the time we went so it felt completely wild being around so many people not wearing a face mask.
What I’m loving:
The past couple of weekends I’ve been able to go into a coffee shop, order my coffee, and sit at a table and read my book. One of the things I loved doing prior to the pandemic is now back and I am super excited. There’s just something about getting out of my apartment and relaxing in a cafe where I can people watch, drink my coffee, and hang out with friends and a good book.
What I’m planning:
I’m planning out my April goals. March was a complete bust for me. I don’t know if it was because I was out of town the first week of the month or because my goals were not sitting in front of me where I can see them every day, but I did not make progress on any of my goals this month. I was so excited when I was planning them out in February because I think I had some good goals this month but unfortunately, I just could not get into them. I think I’m going to repeat all of my March goals in April and hopefully, I can move forward on them. One of my goals is to get a new desk for my home office but all of the desks that I like are sold out or on backorder, so if anyone has any ideas about where to get a desk from, let me know!
See you next month!
