Regroup • A Review of March
March 2012 = “Regroup”
Once again I’ve been inspired by a post on HappyBlackWoman.com. If you haven’t visited that blog what are you waiting on? It’s a favorite of mine!
Moving right along …
… this time Rosetta shared a “word that captures the essence how [she] spent the month of February” in an effort to be “more intentional about reflecting on [her] life and work”. I absolutely love the idea, especially at this pivotal point in my life, so I’ve decided to do the same here on my blog.
The word that best captures the month of March 2012 for me would be: REGROUP.
re·group
I chose that word because February 2012 brought with it a huge amount of flux for me (some I’ve shared, some I have not). Most evident would be that my corporate contracting position ended. With that comes the work of redefining what my day/life/purpose looks like. I’m so thankful to even be able to have this opportunity and pray I use it to the fullest. That said, I do feel like March of 2012 was used mostly to re-acclaimate myself to what in the world has been going on while I was at work, before I do any true “searching and re-positioning” in that area.
So what have I done?
- I started meal planning, cooking, and sticking to a budget.
- I do my laundry on a schedule and actually get it done.
- I have caught up on several giveaways that I’ve been meaning to get to for some time now.
- I have caught up on several product reviews that I’ve been meaning to get to for some time now.
- I am catching up on some household projects that I’ve been meaning to get to for some time now. (example)
- I’ve done a guest post on another blog and been featured on other blogs several times!
- I’ve finally started vetting my list of baby items to purchase for Flickerbug.
- I spent a week and a half with my mom!
- I’ve participated in local events, including a live taping of Oprah’s Lifeclass and a concert of the Soweto Gospel Choir!
- I pray and read my Bible every night (with hubby).
- I am currently working to revamp my advertising strategy on this blog.
- I have reviewed a few guest author submissions for this blog that you will be seeing soon, as well as reached out to some blogger for submissions.
What word describes your March 2012? What do you want describe your April 2012?
Oh and I loved that Rosetta ended her post with a recap of the previous month’s posts. I’ll do the same with the 28 posts I cranked out last month in case you missed any. Enjoy, comment and share!
