On my to do list: The bees have been buzzing in my head all week, so I finally did a brain dump. Now I have a giant list of tasks to try and complete. Just the act of writing it all down helps me tame the bees. Now I need to start completing the tasks.

What I am creating: I’m finally getting to February Memory Planner pages. I also cut out the bases for the Reading Retreat goody bag tags. Now I need to decide which to work on today.
My simple pleasures: Sunshine, Raspberry Lime Spindrift, a good walk
