Hello. I hope you are doing well.
It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Sorry about that. I didn’t mean to go quiet for so long.
What’s been happening the past 2-ish months?
My sister’s surgery went well and she healed quickly and cleanly. She’s had several surgeries in her life and this one has been the easiest for her, so that’s good. And because she’s better, at least 90%, I’m back home.
I got back at the beginning of May, Just after the first week. And immediately once I was home I was thrown into work! Between being busy in the restaurant and setting up my garden for the summer there really hasn’t been a lot of time for much.
I have my garden set up and fenced in, I had to because I have dogs who like to jump on everything and dig. This was also my first year starting my own plants from seeds instead of purchasing them. I had mixed results on what came up and I don’t think a lot survived the transplant. It seems the things I direct sowed are fairing better. It’s a little disheartening to see all your hard work die, but there is a large learning curb and I know things didn’t start out how I wanted because I had to go and help my sister. And there’s always next year.
I didn’t finish the post about what I read in March because it didn’t seem like those posts were getting a lot of traffic and they were starting to get tedious to write. Also, I literally didn’t read anything in April so I wouldn’t have had anything to post for that either.
This month I’ve started a reading challenge. I’m using the same criteria as I did last year because I liked it and I think the information gathered at the end is really useful. If you would like to look at that post to see all the info you can check that out here-> https://trflynnofficial.wordpress.com/2022/08/01/august-reading-challenge-2022/
I’m also about 10 books behind on my reading challenge of the year, so I’m hoping this will get me back on track as well.
I’m also finally learning how to drive. I know, only now? Aren’t you like 25? Yes, and yes. I’ve been very anxious as a teen and the idea of being behind the wheel was enough to make my chest tighten and it to be difficult to breathe. So, at 25, and in a good place, I’m finally ready to try. As I’ve learned there isn’t a timeline for when you need to do things, I could be 40 and getting my ‘L’ and that would be fine.
So, yeah. There has been a fair amount going on. But nothing I haven’t been able to handle, it’s just left less time for me. I’m hoping I’ll be able to get back to a regular routine soon. If not, I do hope I can get more consistent at posting again. I guess we’ll see.
I hope you are having a wonderful day. And if it’s not wonderful, I hope it gets better. Stay safe and I’ll see you next time.
