Rabbit rabbit and happy March! Here are some photos and thoughts from February that were a little thin for their own posts.
The only side effects I had from the first COVID vaccine were a minor headache, a sore arm, and a bit of tiredness. The tiredness could have been regular Friday tiredness but I still managed to stay up until midnight.
I bought a Dr. Fauci mask from Etsy.
I did some much needed brow maintenance after this photo.
We spent some time with Nephews A and B. Nephew B enjoys putting his little toys and action figures on the train track and giggling with anticipation as the train approaches. He’s a little twisted and I love it. RIP, Ham and Rex.
Also that is Mom’s house and that is her VALENTINE tree. Just putting that out there.
We bought a new Mickey Mouse rug from Ruggable for the living room. We had a smaller one which we are now saving for whenever we tear up the (awful, crummy, builder grade, much-hated) carpet from the downstairs and replace it with laminate or engineered hardwood.
This was the birthday card I made for Mom. On one hand I am in love with the stenciled background and black subsentiment but on the other hand I feel like instead of becoming better at creating cards, I’m becoming better at replicating techniques I see on Youtube.

Ollie, Murphy, and I attended a Zoom pets meetup with a bunch of people from a website that I’m a part of. It went really well, and we got to meet other dogs, cats, snails, and horses!
Full disclosure: I didn’t change my letterboard from January.
Duolingo: “streak” is 130 days, although used some gems to give me a pass one day while preserving said streak
NYT Crossword: streak is 70 days.
March goals: Get back on the yoga train, plant seedlings at the beginning and end of the month, knock out 8 more chapters of my first CAE book, and pay off the 2nd of my 3 personal credit cards. And change the letterboard.

Glad you were able to get the vaccine and that you are feeling better after getting it 🙂 That meme about anxiety, ha! I can relate!
That game was the WORST!
My own letterboard (purchased exactly 1 year + 1 week ago) is still in its box, probably still enclosed by the box it was shipped to me in, for what it’s worth
It’s all “oh I’m a creative person I can think of funny things” and then March 2020 happened.
Love the mickey mouse rug. That’s so cute. I love that your mom has a Valentine’s Day tree too – I’d totally be someone who had a tree for every big holiday; maybe one day!
Love the mask too!!

Thanks! I trying to low-key bully her into keeping it up for St. Patrick’s Day but she was over it. Maybe next year!
