Monthly Re-Cap! March 2015

Here we are again, another month has come to an end. I hope you all had a great (and safe) St. Patrick’s Day! This month slowly crept by. I played a ton of paintball, watched the snow melt, and was able to open my windows while driving without freezing. 🙂 I also got my first official job today!! It was a great month. (Any month the snow melts and the warmer weather comes out to play is a GREAT month.) I’m getting really excited to get outside enjoy the Earth. Throughout the winter my fiance (mostly) and I have been fixing things and working for a friend in exchange for a motorcycle and since the ice is gone we have brought it home to fix up and get running. I can’t wait to take small road trips on it in a couple weeks! Now that we are coming into April I cannot wait for thunderstorms and rain! ❤
Here’s what I’ve been up to this month here on my blog!

Monthly Re-Cap: February 2015!

February seemed to have flown by! Unfortunately for me, it was not very spectacular… I’ve played a lot of paintball, finished the last season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and started watching Angel. Oh, I also watched Fifty Shades of Grey! (The book was better.) I have accumulated over 300 Twitter followers though! Thank you to every single one of you! 🙂

Here’s what I’ve been up to here on Life of a Book Enthusiast this past month in case you’ve missed anything!

Monthly Re-Cap: January 2015

I hope you all had an amazing start to 2015!
❤

Within this month some great things have happened! I am participating in two swaps! The first (over at Chaotic Goddess Swaps) wrapped up today, but they do the swap three times a year so check them out! The second is the On The Same Page Secret Sister Swap hosted by the lovely ladies Alyssa, Amy, and Brittany! I’ve also hit a few small milestones: 200+ blog views and 100+ Twitter followers! Thank you all! I have also conducted my first giveaway, congratulations to the lucky winner! Oh! One more thing! Today I’m heading all the way down to Cincinnati, Ohio to attend a book signing for none other than Marissa Meyer! (My FIRST book signing!! I’m so nervous!)

This month has flown by, so in case you missed anything from Life of a Book Enthusiast this month here is a list!
