March in Numbers!


Happy Monday!!  Ugh...today's the first day back to work after Spring Break! So to help me through this day it's a big ol' coffee this morning and I'm already looking forward to the wine I'll have when I get home!!

April is Here!  A quarter way through the year-yikes!!  Not like I want it to fly or anything...well maybe I do....bring on Summer!!!

Recapping my March in numbers today with the lovely Deena!  It's a pretty short list. With the exception of Spring Break and it's doings, March was rather uneventful for me!!



Speaking of Spring Break, that was a nice little treat for the month of March.  I was off 11 days, 8 of which were in March.  It was a nice break.  I was able to check 5 items off the Spring Break Bucket List I put together, had lots of fun and relaxed a bunch too.  Breaks always go too fast!!

Of the four Saturday nights in March I spent every single one of them  at home!!  #solitarylifeprobs I was sick one Saturday though! :(

But on those Saturdays I had the opportunity to start and finish all 6 seasons, 94 episodes of Sex and the City again!  I'm so glad I decided to watch it again now.  Because I'm the age that they were then.  I've also discovered I have a little bit of each of the girls in me right now!  When it was first on I was 100% Charlotte!   LOL


But I went out a bunch though too...

4 visits to my favorite place, Meetball with family and friends!

3 dinners with friends at other fun places in town

2 visits to Parabell and 2 breakfasts at Toast

1 Sushi night!  Definitely not enough sushi this month!!

Clearly, I eat out a lot but never leave my three-mile radius!

Actually that not true...I met with friends out of town for dinner once!

4 family days this month.  Lunches and dinners with my sisters and their families, and the whole lot of us got together for Easter Sunday!

1 Hello Fresh delivery!  But only 1 recipe made!  The other two meals I ended up splitting, and eating in other ways!!  I got it on a bad week when I ended up going out a lot!!   But anytime there's a risotto, I get a delivery!!  Love risotto!!!!!!!!!!


1 book club meeting hosted!  The first book club meeting! And I'd say it was a success!!

My reading this month was not great though!  2 books finished in March (Edgewater...the Book Club book) and Rediscover Jesus, that I read throughout all of Lent! A third book I started but never completed!  Fingers crossed I can finish it in April!!

As always, too much coffee, too much wine and thanks to one over-indulgent Happy Hour on Spring Break, too much beer!!  But lots of water too, thanks to my new tupperware water bottle.

So I think that's it for me for the month!!

  3. What a great month, especially with all of those days off! I need some time off of work! I don't think I've ever watched the entire series of Sex and the city, I've probably seen 80% of it...hmmm..I think I need to fix that. And Yes to I was totally Charlotte when I first started watching...and now...not so much :)

  8. You really did eat out a bunch! That sounds delicious... :) And awesome that you have so many places close to you! The hubby and I went out Friday night (pretty rare for us actually) and we drove about 30 minutes to go where we wanted.

  9. I haven't seen many episodes of Sex & The City - I think I had little kids when the show was on! Sounds like you had a good month - I'm excited for summer too!
