Welcome 2019!

I made, my family made it, we all made it to 2019! We're alive. I'm grateful. Nothing crazy happened over the holidays but I really want to center and draw myself around the things that are truly great in my life. It can go quickly and so it's important to remember the good so we can draw on that when the bad inevitably comes knocking.

We rang in the New Year with family friends in Las Vegas. We rented an Airbnb and just relaxed and ate food and had drinks and played lots of games. It was just great to get to a warmer climate and relax with friends for a few days. Our cats missed us but they survived!

My car is finally in the shop and hopefully it gets fixed up soon!

So now it's the planning stage. I have some goals and I need to work on the smaller ones so I can get to the bigger ones. I plan on taking and finishing an HTML class. I've started one or two so many times that my goal is to finally get a class finished.

I finished up a few books while on vacation and over the winter break.

1. The Wedding Date by Jasmine Guillory. I plan on getting a review up soon. I loved it and it was perfect for what I needed.

2. G and I finished up The Serpent's Secret by Sayantani DasGupta. We both loved the cute story and the wonderful and fantastic world they lived in.

3. A Study in Scarlet Women by Sherry Thomas. A lady Sherlock mystery series. I liked it.


4. Infidel by Pornsak Pichetshote. A horror in graphic novel form. I got this for Christmas and read it the day of. Freaky and beautifully or (terrifyingly?) drawn.
