March 2023 in Review

Posted on April 2, 2023 by Thistle

Perhaps it’s because of the time change (and ensuing insomnia), or because of the awful amount of heat we had from early March onwards, or because I spent a lot of time binge-watching TV, but March drifted by in a … Continue reading →

February 2023 in Review

Posted on March 1, 2023 by Thistle

February has been a monster of a month! Not in a bad way, just very, very FULL. I had weeks where there were literally events or appointments going on daily, some of them taking up 16 hours a day! When … Continue reading →

January 2023 in Review

Posted on February 1, 2023 by Thistle

January was lovely. Honestly, I’m not used to January being a mostly-good month. My depression cycles – which have remained fairly consistent since I was about 13 or 14 years old – usually involve me having a great first 2-3 … Continue reading →

2023 Goals

Posted on January 1, 2023 by Thistle

Over the last few years, I’ve let things sort of stack up on top of me. It’s been easy to say, f– this, who cares if this gets done, I’ll do it later; and then just read or watch TV … Continue reading →

Posted on November 2, 2022 by Thistle

October turned out to be a pretty incredible month. Started on Day 1 with a Muslim Culture Festival in Austin with friends – my first proper ladies’ day out in ages – and ended with an amazing Halloween night where … Continue reading →

July 2022 in Review

Posted on August 1, 2022 by Thistle

Updated Goals for 2022

Posted on July 13, 2022 by Thistle

With my current 2022 goals mostly in shambles, I’ve decided to update them for the second half of 2022. Physical Health Complications, side effects, and new medical conditions made former goals unachievable in the time remaining, so I’ve scrapped them … Continue reading →

June 2022 in Review

Posted on July 4, 2022 by Thistle

Ugh June. Usually a fairly good month, after the oppression of May, but the unrelenting heat, stressful goodbyes, re-rise of covid, and horrific politics has made June probably the worst month of 2022. Oy. It’s been a monotonous haze of … Continue reading →

May 2022 in Review

Posted on June 1, 2022 by Thistle

I’m not feeling so well right now, had a really bad cold the last few days (several negative covid tests say it’s just a cold, anyway, despite me moaning dramatically about it at home). So this post is going to … Continue reading →

April 2022 in Review

Posted on May 1, 2022 by Thistle

Obviously, it’s been a crazy month. About 90% of that month involved round-the-clock care of two orphaned kittens. I’m going to make a separate post about kittens and the TNR project, because both have been big in April and could … Continue reading →
