Update Post
Mar. 26th, 2026 04:01 pmI don't seem to be doing much better with posting every two weeks, but at least I have managed this time. March has been a rather good month, with a lot of things going on. I have done decently at keeping up with yoga and the dishes, and Duolingo has been good like usual, if a bit less progress on the German course than I would like. I haven't read any books in March, but I did hit my quaterly goal already and I read a lot of fanfic. I have managed one flute practice so far, so I will need to fit the second one in before the end of the month.
On the topic of non-repeating goals, I have made good progress there as well. I finished the shawl I was knitting, although I do still need to block it. I'm very happy with how it turned out though, and I'm glad I finished it. I also finished my paint-by-number and am currently in the stage of touching it up to make it look prettier. Once that's done, I can attach the hanger and find a spot for it. :D Another thing I did was knit two dishcloths. This wasn't a goal, but I did have a coworker ask if I could make them, so I'm glad that project got finished.
There were also some fun things that happened in March. On March 14th, I got together with a group of my friends and celebrated "Pi Day" with a whole bunch of pies. They were delicious pies and it was a night of good socializing. The following day, I was able to take a day to myself to relax and also work on my March projects. Last weekend, my boyfriend and I drove up to a Fibre Fair that also happens to be near a waterfall. I bought some very pretty hand-dyed yarn, most of which I have a plan for. I managed to stay on target for number of skeins bought, although I did go slightly over budget because I mis-remembered the price of hand-dyed yarn. We did drive to the waterfall afterwards, but it was rather foggy and a bit rainy, so visibility was poor and we didn't hike down to the bottom. It was still a cool way to see the falls, and it was a lovely day spent in wonderful company.
Coming up, I have lunch with my good friend tomorrow, which is always lovely. In April I am going to be working on the yard and finishing up (finally) the baby blanket I started making well over a year ago, as well as starting my next round of books. I'm looking forward to the coming weeks and I hope they have good things in store for all of you, too. See you next time! :)
