We Made it to the End of March!

It only occurred to me yesterday that this will be the last weekend of March. It’s so crazy how quickly this insanely long month flies by! We did it! Whew! I look back on all the concerts and music festivals, coupled with the gardening and the sewing—it’s such a BIG MONTH EVERY SINGLE YEAR.

Top priorities this past week:

Prom Dresses!
Garden
Easter
Girls’ driving practicing

Creativity

I’m still ironing out the wrinkles in Renaissance’s muslin for her prom dress. I look forward to the day when I’m good at making muslins. I’m on Attempt #3 and I’ve finally managed to get the worst problems solved. Now I just need to make sure the sleeve will work, which I’ve been procrastinating because sleeves and I do not get along. Fingers and toes crossed!

Gardening

No work done. I am falling behind on this. BUT it was raining all week, so…meh.

Easter

I’ve made no plans. Nobody’s terribly excited about any part of it this year, and we’ve all got other stuff going on, so I guess it’ll be a quiet celebration, which is fine to happen every few years.

Caring

Girls’ Driving Practice: Happened more than usual. Rachel drove Michael’s truck twice and she loves it.
Parent Teacher Conferences: I didn’t go because I am incapable of being in two places at once. I feel like I am always finding out about Parent Teacher Conferences only a week or two before they happen—I should make a note to figure this out earlier in the year so I don’t have previous engagements at the same time.
Lunch with a Friend: Happened! Oh, it’s such a nice thing to do! And, weirdly enough, a friend from Utah randomly phoned me about forty-five minutes before the lunch date and I got to talk to her, too! Connecting with friends is one of the best feelings. I’m so glad these ladies reached out.
