May flew by! It started on such a high note, ended on such a hard note. I celebrated a birthday during a global pandemic, and marched in my first peaceful protests. It was such a wild and full month, and I’m glad I finally took the time to look back at it and record what happened.

Oh, April. What a month. It both lasted a million years and flew by in a second, somehow?! It was a month spent totally at home (literally only left like twice, except for walks), full of lots of working from home, crossing things off my bucket list, and feeling grateful for spring + nice weather to keep me sane.
