Lots of pajamas and comfy clothes.

10. What I'm Doing This Weekend...

Depending on how I'm feeling, I might go out on my birthday to some stores with my mom but honestly I'm not sure if I will be up for it. If not, I will just be relaxing and spending quality time with my mom at home on my birthday and hopefully I will be able to Facetime with my family in NY as well.

11. What I'm Looking Forward To Next Month...

Hopefully I will be 100% healed and feeling back to normal. I'm also excited for two planner meet ups that I will be attending. I'm very much looking forward to spending time with my friends!

12. What Else Is New...

This month, my niece/God-daughter O, celebrated her 11th birthday. On the 16th, it was the 10 year anniversary of the day I met David Wright. On the 17th, it was 5 years ago that I graduated from college. On the 31st, I will be turning 30 years old.

Bonus Question This Month: 
What's your favorite memory from 2016?

I can't pick just one so here's a few:

+ all of the time I spent with my mom. She is my best friend and we always have the best times together!
+ the time I got to spend back in NY visiting my family. Sadly, I did not get to spend much time in NY this year.
+ I started substituting in the classrooms and I absolutely love it. I hope to do a lot more of it in 2017.
+ Meeting so many wonderful friends through the planner community.
+ Winter Planner-Land event with my friends

Books Read in February 2022

  The Code For Love & Heartbreak -Jillian Cantor I saw this book on sale for $10 and thought it looked interesting. It was a cute story line. A little repetitive at places but overall I enjoyed it. I rated it 3 stars on the Goodreads website. When Less Becomes More -Emily Ley I love Emily Ley's books and I had the pleasure of meeting her at one of the Wild For Planners Go Wild Planner conferences. She is super sweet! I really enjoy her personal development books. I rated this book 3 stars. Heartstopper (Volume 4) -Alice Oseman I love this series so much. I love graphic novels and I really wish my library had more of them. I rated this book 4 stars. Bad Moms -Nora McInerny I like this movie (and the sequel A Bad Mom's Christmas) and I saw this at a discount store and I had no idea it was made into a novel. I enjoyed it. It wasn't my favorite book ever since I knew everything that happened since it stuck very close to the movie. I rated it 3 stars. Life, Unscheduled -K...

  Heartstopper (Volume 3) -Alice Oseman While I was back home visiting my family for Christmas, I went to the mall with my dad and my nephews but I've been dealing with some health issues and my pain was really bad that day (and the mall was super crowded) so I ended up sitting in a chair at Barnes & Noble and reading the first two volumes of the Heartstopper series while they were shopping. I like this series. I love graphic novels but my library system doesn't have a lot of the ones I want to read and I will not buy graphic novels because I read them in a day. I rated this book 3 stars. Blame It On The Mistletoe -Beth Garrod I absolutely adored and loved this book so much. The characters, the plot, the setting... I loved it all. I rated this book 5 stars. Adequate Yearly Progress -Roxanna Elden I did not enjoy this book at all. I rated it 1 star. All I Want For Christmas -Wendy Loggia This is another super cute Christmas novel. I wasn't able to get to all of the Chr...
