I Used to Be Pretty Good at This

     I remember when I used to post on here a few times a week... Maybe I need to just dedicate one day a week to the blog and schedule things to post so that I at least have something going up.

     So I had a whole month off of school, I had planned to have reviews up a few times a week as well as update y'all on my knitting. I posted one review. One. Yes, I worked on them, but didn't finish many. Do you know what I actually did? I binged video podcasts on YouTube and TV shows on Hulu and Netflix. I mean I did work too, so I wasn't just lazing around in PJs eating chips and watching TV. I also worked on my bullet journal a lot. It's set up through February, but I'd like to get it set up through May since that's when my semester ends.

     I'm knitting pretty much every day, but I'm hardly finishing anything because I'm either starting something new or I ran out of yarn and need more. I'm participating in the Harry Potter Knit and Crochet House Cup again, so I'm getting in at least one project a month, even if it's something small like a blanket square.
     I'm hoping to attend DFW Fiber Fest in April in Irving, TX. I had hoped to put in my name for the SSK lottery, but some things came up and it just wasn't in the budget. Driving to DFW and staying in a hotel for a couple nights is much easier on my wallet right now than having to pay for a retreat, food, flight, and possibly a hotel. It's still one of my dream retreats, and I'd still love to go to Rhinebeck, but I need to save and work my way towards it.

     Even over my break, I didn't read as much as I hoped to. I started a ton of books but I only finished a couple of them. I only finished 28 books last year, per Goodreads, which is only a little over half of my goal. Instead of upping or decreasing my goal this year, I decided to keep it the same. Maybe I'll actually hit 50 this year.
