April was a whirlwind!

I wasn’t able to give blood at the beginning of April, but that’s okay. There will be other blood drives! It was great to volunteer like always.

I had a fantastic experience with Camp NaNoWriMo April 2023. Look for a recap post on that very soon.

I’m actually going to start incorporating the edits for “Specialton” in May. One project at a time.

Most of our weekends were full of family visits, in between getting estimates for house projects. The joys of home ownership!

I’ve started to read again, chapter by chapter. I’m currently about eight chapters into re-reading Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret. Super excited to see the movie adaptation very soon with Lane!
