Witty Rewind: April 2019

I thought it’d be fun to capture each month’s activities and milestones in a series called Witty Rewind. It may not be for posterity’s sake, but I hope you’ll enjoy looking back at the previous month with me.

This first paragraph has been dedicated to my health and wellness journey, but tbh guys, I’ve put all that on the backburner. Yes, I bought essential oils. Yes, I practiced some yoga. Yes, I ate a lot of kale. But to say I’m the picture of health (as much as I want to) would be an utter fallacy. [Times I thought about working out: ~50]

I did bump back up my reading list with a handful of books I flew right through. There were some peaks and valleys, some tears and laughs. Overall, I’m just glad my library card is getting so much use (and that my employer reimburses books I read for my job). They’re the real MVPs. [Books read: 6]

Here’s what else I spent time doing in April:

1. 1. Fighting a mystery illness
   2. Seeing a Star Wars–themed burlesque show
   3. Explaining to people what/why/who/where re: a Star Wars–themed burlesque show
   4. Wine-ing with friends after a Vegas trip as a no-go
   5. Being “those people” at said wineries and giving zero Fs
   6. Spending time getting set up for the next year of Junior League
   7. Seeing former colleagues at a ladies’ happy-hour-turned-mega-celebration
   8. Worshipping a dear friend who knows how to purge crap without judgment
   9. Brunching with former colleagues at a spot I hadn’t been before
   10. Dyeing Easter eggs and enjoying homemade lemon cupcakes with a dear friend
   11. Avoiding my old apartment during countless showings, despite needing to pack
   12. MOVING to a new apartment with a former roommate! ! !
   13. Getting my deep clean on at the dentist twice #NoCavities
   14. Toasting a former colleague as she closes one chapter for a new one at FitBit (gasp!)
   15. Reaching peak adulthood as I nearly cried when receiving a new mattress
