April 2023 Wrap Up

May 6, 2023May 1, 2023Leave a comment

I thought March had been a slow reading month for me, but it turns out that April was even slower. Why? I have absolutely no clue. I wasn't much busier than usual, with the exception of packing for my trip, and the trip itself. When this posts I should be getting ready to head back … Continue reading April 2023 Wrap Up

March 2023 Wrap Up

April 1, 2023March 31, 2023Leave a comment

Somehow, March was both short and long. I don't understand how this works, but then again, time is an illusion. I'm just excited for the nicer weather to come so I can stop wearing winter jackets every other day. Though, I'll be honest, I've been wearing only my 90s Con jacket since getting it, even … Continue reading March 2023 Wrap Up

February 2023 Wrap Up

March 2, 20232 Comments

I know everyone else is saying that February flew by, but to me it was another long month. I had the major disappointment of not getting a job I really wanted, some more health concerns with my family, and a friend of mine lost their aunt in a freak accident which was just heartbreaking. I … Continue reading February 2023 Wrap Up

January 2023 Wrap Up

February 3, 2023February 1, 20232 Comments

What a rough first month of the year. If you remember, my mom and I both tested positive for Covid on the first of the year, so that was fun. It took a while, as we did end up with secondary issues of bronchitis (my mom) and bronchial spasms (me). Basically, the same thing as … Continue reading January 2023 Wrap Up

December 2022 Wrap Up

January 2, 2023January 1, 202311 Comments

Happy New Year indeed... so both my mom and I started the year with a positive Covid test yesterday. Yay. Neither of us are severe with symptoms, but we're making sure to rest, stay hydrated, and take the medicines we can to manage the symptoms. Praying that we'll both be better soon, especially my mom … Continue reading December 2022 Wrap Up

November 2022 Wrap Up

December 3, 2022November 29, 2022Leave a comment

November was the worst month I've had for reading this year. Which is fine, it's not like I need to read 11-16 books a month to be happy, but it was frustrating because I wanted to read something but at the same time nothing appealed to me. The only thing I wanted to do all … Continue reading November 2022 Wrap Up

October 2022 Wrap Up

November 3, 2022November 1, 20222 Comments

October started off strong, but like a couple of years ago, I've hit a slump. I think this time it's because some of the last few books I've read were just "meh." That, and I think a seasonal depression has hit, as I'm getting bored with pretty much anything I do. Even blogging. I was … Continue reading October 2022 Wrap Up

September 2022 Wrap Up

October 3, 2022October 1, 20228 Comments

What started off as a slow month picked up about midway through. I think I was still finding my groove at work after being out for nearly three weeks, so that sort of hindered my reading a bit. There was also the dilemma of not knowing what to read next because I'm in that mood … Continue reading September 2022 Wrap Up

August 2022 Wrap Up

September 3, 2022September 1, 20223 Comments

Obviously, my surgery went well and I've been active online for the past two weeks. Even the week after my surgery I didn't stay offline for very long, but I didn't actively write any of my posts. I had them all scheduled, hehe. Anyway, I didn't think I was going to read much after going … Continue reading August 2022 Wrap Up

July 2022 Wrap Up

August 3, 2022August 2, 20224 Comments

Well, as most of you may know, August is going to be a big month for me, as I'm having surgery to have my thyroid removed in about a week. I'll have about two weeks, at least, off from work and I'll be pretty much either watching shows/movies or reading during my time off. It … Continue reading July 2022 Wrap Up

June 2022 Wrap Up

July 2, 2022July 1, 20221 Comment

Another month gone. This one has been a bit long for me, and the coming month is going to be longer. I recently had an ultrasound done on my thyroid because of a lump my doctor felt on my throat in that area, and they want to do a biopsy on it now. The problem … Continue reading June 2022 Wrap Up

May 2022 Wrap Up

June 1, 2022May 31, 20222 Comments

Yikes, I can't believe May is gone already. I feel like it was just last week I was trying to figure out what to do for my birthday and now a month has passed. This year is simultaneously flying by and dragging, if you ask me. Of course, I'm also still here thinking it's 2020 … Continue reading May 2022 Wrap Up

April 2022 Wrap Up

May 6, 20223 Comments

April was a bad month for reading. I started off well enough, but I finally hit that dreaded reading slump. I went through a few books where I didn't get past the first chapter before putting the book down. I didn't even bother to count those as DNF books because I knew my heart wasn't … Continue reading April 2022 Wrap Up

March 2022 Wrap Up

April 2, 2022March 29, 2022Leave a comment

I'm shocked at how quickly March went by, and at how many books I read this month. It certainly didn't seem like a lot, but I read 15 books. I think it was the Harry Potter rereads that made it feel like I didn't read much, since I went through those slower than usual. As … Continue reading March 2022 Wrap Up

February 2022 Wrap Up

March 3, 2022March 1, 2022Leave a comment

I don't know how it's possible, but February went by quick yet slow at the same time. Hmm... Like last year, I actually read quite a few books for the shortest month of the year. I totaled twelve books, which I think was the same as last year now that I think about it. Give … Continue reading February 2022 Wrap Up
