Goodbye February | 2018

febbye

This isn’t gonna be a long post because February wasn’t very busy and most of my time was spent on things… not out of the ordinary. Ha.

Lovely Life

  • We welcomed baby Gabriella Ivy Lucille Combs to the world! Tory had a wonderful Vback and Gabby is healthy! And ADORABLE.
  • I got my driver’s permit. 
  • School school school. And I’m not doing terrible, thanks for askin’. ;D
  • We got 13 baby chicks! They grow so fast… gosh…
  • Practiced piano. Twenty One Pilots, anyone?
  • Watched CA: Civil War for the upteenth time with my dad and bro… I love complaining about Marvel… 
  • And Waylon’s doing great – have a happy puppy on your feed now!

World Of Writing

I did quite a bit of writing in Jump this month but didn’t reach my goal of finishing it – mainly because, after discussion with my parents, I tweaked said goal. I needed to spend more time on other things – school, animals, life – and so moving my goals back slightly isn’t a bad thing. Actually, expect a post about this kinda matter soon. 😛

So, Jump is almost finished! It’ll be done before Camp NaNo.

Speaking of Camp, I’m participating! I’ll be working on editing/revising Seek and using beta reader feedback – or not using it. Haha. In short, I’ll be putting Jump aside to focus on Seek. I don’t know for sure when I’ll be publishing Seek or how I’ll go about it, but I trust God to give me wisdom. I pray He helps me write, edit, and share – in His timing!

March Goals

  • Compete in forms and sparring in the USEWF karate tournament – this year is the 50th anniversary. My bro and I competed last year – check out that post here. It is on the 10th and it’ll be a big deal so… praying we do well.
  • Drive. I’ve had my permit for over a month and haven’t driven anywhere. Oops.
  • Finish Jump and print it.
  • Do a few live speed shops with Paparazzi! So – are any of y’all interested in wonderful $5 jewelry? It’s ALL 5 dollars – the necklaces all come with earrings. We have bracelets, earrings (even clip ons, if you don’t have piercings like me!), necklaces wraps – and it’s all 5 bucks and amazing! No joke, y’all! Be sure to check out our Facebook page and message me (even via my email!) if you’re interested!
  • Read my Bible twice a day, every day. I’ve been doing this and wanna keep it up!
  • Draw at least three times.
  • Work with Mini and Taloowa.
  • Post on my blog more than twice. Geez. My bad.

That’s a wrap, folks! Or… I might be missing things. I threw this together last minute. I’m actually currently out of town, in a peaceful little cabin near Knoxville, and it’s kinda late here. Ha. But we had a safe trip here! We even watched some Captain America: The First Avenger while eating pizza. Amazing.

God bless y’all!

    Dawwww, your niece is so sweet and such a precious name! (pardon me while I steal her … okay, just kidding!!! But we need more babies around here. 😉 )

    My February was pretty good! Kinda … slow-paced and boring. Almost everything I did I did in like the last five days when I realized “Whoa, I need to actually edit!” 😛 But it was surprisingly successful considering the fact that I was pretty much like, “Uggggh, I’m not doing anything all month!” And then I wrote my recap post and was like, “Hey, now, that wasn’t so bad???”

      Thanks, girl! She is the cutest – and SO chill… like she’s alert but doesn’t cry much. xD ♥ You should come visit – get baby sugars. 😛
      I feel ya!! I didn’t really get a whole lot done and yet it… felt… busy and not busy at the same time? Thus is life, I guess, haha!

    Yay! Congrats on your driver’s permit. That sounds like an exciting step. 🙂 Hopefully you’ll have a lot more success with your first few months of driving than I did with mine. 😉 (Not that anything bad happened, cause it didn’t. I just didn’t drive anywhere….)
