State Of The ARC #50

I finished March with 14 ARCs left to be read.  I can only speak for myself, but April was a hot mess of a month over here. For the first half of the month, my mother was dealing with medical issues which are thankfully being addressed and treated. […]

State Of The ARC #49

I finished February with 17 ARCs left to be read.  For such a short month, February felt like it was about eleventy billion days long. March was probably one of my most stressful months in a long time, and I’ve dived back into reading and using it as […]

State Of The ARC #48

I finished January with 15 ARCs left to be read.  Wow, reflecting back on February makes me realize how fast this month flew by. It doesn’t feel like much happened, but looking back, I realize how much got packed into this month. I was also so surprised to […]

State Of The ARC #47

I finished December with 18 ARCs left to be read.  January was a great month. There are multiple birthdays amongst my extended family, and within my immediate family, my brother, sister-in-law, and I all have birthday in January. We also remember my father on his birthday, which was […]

State Of The ARC #46

I finished November with 18 ARCs left to be read.  December was another fun month, but is it just me or did it fly by ridiculously fast? I spent half the month fighting off a cough and runny nose, and trying to rest as much as possible, then […]

State Of The ARC #45

I finished October with 21 ARCs left to be read.  November was a whirlwind of a month. I started it in New York, and flew down to Florida to spend Thanksgiving with my family members, and go to my youngest great-nephew’s fourth birthday party. I also got to […]

State Of The ARC #44

I finished September with 27 ARCs left to be read.  I started doing this monthly feature a while ago, and it really helps me keep track of how I’m doing with my ARCs. Every month, I type this out, and it really hit me today that this is […]

State Of The ARC #43

I finished August with 32 ARCs left to be read.  Anyone else think that September was the longest and Mondayest month we’ve had in a while? It might just be me, but it felt like this month would never end. Maybe it was the fact that the weather […]

State Of The ARC #42

I finished July with 35 ARCs left to be read.  August feels like it went by in the blink of an eye, didn’t it? My finances took a big hit, with my car needing an expensive repair, 3 of my dogs needing vet visits, then my car needing […]

State Of The ARC #41

I finished June with 29 ARCs left to be read.  July was a really tough month for me. The heat has been brutal for me, with my heat intolerance and my POTS (postural orthostatic hypertension syndrome) combining to make it a difficult month to get out and do […]
