I'd be interested in your bingo boards.

Edited to add, Alchemised just came in at the library so l'm reading that too.

I like to crochet or, lately, work on diamond art.

Done that. 😁

Currently reading four books at the moment. Yay snow days!

Progress on New Years Resolutions

Finished a 26 hour audiobook which brings me up to 3 books for the year.

Attended a volunteer advocacy training ahead of NAMI Advocacy Day February 10th.

Only 19 hours of coursework to go for DSP 2!

Going on 16 for me. Working on my DSP 2.

Onyx Storm. I couldn't even bring myself to finish it.
