April 23 for 23 check-in

Here’s my April 23 for 23 check-in. The formatting is kind of messed up, but I’m too tired to figure it out tonight lol.

1. Word of the year necklace. I had this on my list this year, but never did it. I’ve actually already ordered one from Etsy. It’s two-sided. One side will have the word “Open” and the other side will have the word “Joy”. Excited to see how it turns out. Got my necklace and love it!
2. Figure out how to put my writings about Tom into a book format. As I am sure you can guess, I haven’t got much done from this.
3. Make sure I have saved all my posts from the old blog. Didn’t get anything done on this, but thanks to my friend Rosie, it’s done! Thank you so much!
4. Save Caring Bridge journal entries Completed on 1-16-23
5. Gather up all my writing about Tom into one folder on the computer. Think I’ve finished this, although I may come across some more to add.
