- jared + i started a weekly scrabble date night. it is lovely, even though he has beat me twice.
- i met a friend for lunch + ended up staying at the restaurant for four hours. it was so delightful!
- we ate mexican food + drove around to look at christmas lights.
- this christmas was one of my favorites. we spent time as a family + with both sides of our families.
- after over a month of working from home, i went back to work + it felt SO weird! i definitely had to readjust.
- lots of board + card games were played.
- i finished studying the book of jude. now i'm in the book of titus.

- i have adapted a little motto: properly plan + adjust accordingly. basically reminding myself that planning is good + keeps me sane, but keep it fluid.
- i have not used a straightener on my hair since march. just some dry shampoo + a quick blow dry to get the kinks out + i'm good to go. never thought i would stop using a flat iron!
- i realized how much the enemy had a hold of my thoughts this month. like- it was crazy. i have resolved that when think about a particular person or situation, i will just pray for them. it was sucking the life out of me + i didn't even know it.
