Spring Update

[glinda]

I was chuffed with myself at the end of last month, two more items finished and able to be knocked off the list and then I realised that they were the only two things I'd actually finished all quarter. *sigh* However, progress is being made on other things, slow and steady, but progress nonetheless. I'm still trying to focus on finishing the started things and not getting distracted by other shiny things. In my defense, one of the things on my list that I marked off near the end of last year was saving up a deposit for a flat, and this quarter I did in fact buy a flat so everything else has been on hold while that happened. Adulting! *jazz hands*
