Do I have that book? tag

Hello reader friends!!

As you all know, I have taken a step back from blogging, which wasn't something I had planned. I actually thought I would work on the blog a lot more since I'd gotten much more time to do so but... it didn't happen that way.

I am glad to say that the roommate and myself haven't stayed inactive during all this time however. A little before the whole pandemic happened, we managed to move my bookshelves from the office to my bedroom and I love it so much like that. All because of a dream I had but also because she didn't have a real place to sleep (she was in the living room). And then, we moved my computer desk and computer out from that room into the living room as well. And she was able to put herself and her things into that office now bedroom. It's much better that way. Now we just need to do the finishing touches all over like paint and decorate and stuff.

To get back into blogging, I've already posted my March wrap-up but I was looking for a tag to do.  Found this one on Berries and Books blog, and I thought it looked really interesting so I said why not do it and so... this is what I'm doing now.

I've seen people time themselves while doing this but I won't because I would be wasting a lot of time walking from the living room and back to search for books and such so. I'll just answer the questions.

Anyway...


March 2020 wrap-up

March. What is there to say about this month? The world has basically crumbled from under our feet. I thought it would have been the ideal time, while in confinement, to work more on this blog and to keep a nice posting routine. Instead, I've put this place on hold as well. I also thought I would be able to read even more than I was doing. Did I? Not really. Do I regret leaving the blog aside? Yes and no?! I mean, I'm still not sure what I'm doing? And I definitely didn't put the effort for improvement. And yes, I should have taken that time to better myself with it. Oh well.

In the meantime, the month has come to an end and I have still been active elsewhere and so this wrap-up still has to be posted.

Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy! ♥

"Whatever you are physically, male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy—all those things matter less than what your heart contains. If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a warrior.

February 2020 wrap-up

Ah, February. The shortest month of the year, no matter if it's a leap year or not. The month of love, too. I'm a single girl and I don't date but apparently, it had some effect on me because I seem to have turned toward romances a little bit this month. It is also the month where I lost my job and I started looking for a new one. I already had one interview.

Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy! ♥
