Here
we are, closing in on the very end of March, and I wanted to give an update on
the goals I made for the month!
ONE. Decorate the
house for spring. This is done – and I
shared about it here, if you missed it. I very much love the way it turned out
and feel like the whole space looks and feels fresh and light and clean. That’s
what I need for spring! I plan to, at the start of April, take down the things
that are Easter-specific and leave the rest for the remainder of spring!
TWO. Prep for more
speaking. As you read about here, I spoke at three events in March, and I took a vacation
day to prepare for more further down the road. Natasha commented that my
calendar is fuller this year than in recent years, and it is so true! My April
and May are full to capacity, and then come summer, I have a recurring
commitment with church. I am grateful for each opportunity and take them all as
a great responsibility!
THREE. Try my hand at
a little hospitality adventure. I shared about my
hospitality basket fun in this post. I really loved this unique project and am glad I said yes
to it!
FOUR. Figure out and
shop for my spring capsule wardrobe. I have all but three
(I think) items from my proposed spring capsule wardrobe. I had fun assembling
it from a mix of what I already owned and from things I found at thrift and
consignment stores. I have also thoroughly enjoyed wearing it! It’s been fun to
have a different mix of pieces and colors each day. As soon as I finish the
last three missing pieces, I’ll share what I have put together!
BONUS:
Much more happened
this month than those three things! Some are stories for a bit down the road,
but here are some glimpses into other things we did in March.
·
Ryan and I are deacons
in our church now, and this month brought about some extra responsibilities for
that, because it’s Easter month! We wrote and sent out some letters of
introduction/encouragement to people in the church, I helped make bread for
Holy Week communion, and we are helping with some of the services for this week.
·
I “finished” the
living room wall, which I told you about earlier in the month. I’ll still be
making tweaks, but I’m calling the project done.
·
I planned our Easter
lunch, which I’m super excited about.
· We went on a couple of dates that were so sweet and low-key: much needed for this busy month.
Ryan served on the worship team at church and helped me with my speaking events. I love watching him serve in his element!
·
We took our godson out
for his birthday and had a really wonderful time celebrating with him!
·
The weather was not
that great overall this month, so our ability to get outside for regular walks
was hampered, but we are really thankful for safety in the literal storms that
did a lot of destruction not too far from us.
There was also some
napping involved. I’m sure you can imagine why…
