Greetings, all!
My apologies for this
post being so late! The last couple of month-wrap-up posts were actually on
time, but not April’s. Darn it. :-Z I don’t have a ton to share about this past
month, so this post should be pretty short. :-)
April’s Songs:
Heathens by Twenty-One Pilots
I’ve been enjoying
Twenty-One Pilots’ music of late. Heathens is probably my favorite by them.
Pyrates Beware by Brian Tyler
This my favorite
Assassin’s Creed song right now. I love the pirate aspect of it mixed with the
signature strings of the Assassin’s themes.
It’s Not Over Yet by For King and Country
This song is really
inspiring. I enjoy For King and Country’s music.
April’s Movies:
The Iron Giant
Mom’s Night Out
Sherlock: A Study in Pink
Sherlock:
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Hugo
The Dark is Rising: The Seeker
April’s Books:
The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien
The Complete Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle
The Young Unicorns by Madeline L’Engle
April’s Events
Packing Up Our House to Move: We are moving, or at least trying to.
Most of this month was spent doing yard work, housework, and packing to prepare
for putting our house on the market. That is the reason for my absence from
blogging and writing (sorry ‘bout that; it was kind of an unexpected hiatus).
Now that our house is on the market, I have a little more time for computer
work. :-D We could use a lot of prayer, however; for our house to sell, as we
just found a ton of mold in the attic from a leak in the roof and we don’t
really have the money to fix it. Prayers would be muchly appreciated. :-)
My B-Day and Party: My 16th b-day was on April 25th,
and it was an awesome day. We had pizza and lemonade and watched movies
(SHERLOCK <333) and I got two LEGO minifigures from my little siblings as
gifts. <3 Since I was turning 16, I got to have a birthday party and have a
bunch of my girlfriends over. It was Scottish themed, and we had archery, caber
toss, tug-of-war, Scottish dancing, and ate haggis (which is actually pretty
good). It was so much fun.
Annual Garage Sale: Every year we have a huge garage sale with a
bunch of families from our church. It’s always a ton of fun. We get to spend
the whole day with friends, hold up signs on the corners of the street, and
this year we all walked down to a store and bought ice-cream (and mine may or
may not have fallen off the cone…10 second rule XP).
April’s Writing:
N\A for good reason. I was packing, fixing up our house, doing
track, and trying to finish school. :-P
Well, that was my
super busy but somehow pretty uneventful month. How was your past month? Read
any good books? Are you excited for Summer? Did anyone else do a garage sale
this Spring?
Namarie!
I'll be praying for your house to sell <3 I know all about moving with problem houses...
