March's Plans

From 31 degree temperatures to 18 degree temps.  Yep Autumn has arrived in a mad rush and suddenly we are going from wearing very little to cardigans and socks.  Not that I mind the sudden turnaround to the cooler weather because I looove this kind of weather.  All crispy cool in the mornings and lovely sun during the day.  Bliss.  It just kind of came really fast... like literally one day it's so hot that you're lying on the cold lino floor just to keep cool and the very next day the temperature has plummeted to a rather chilly 15 degrees where only socks and a cardy will do. 

Still this cooler weather is heavenly.  So I'm happy to embrace it.

As for this months plans...

Reading

My reading has slowed down big time lately.  Mostly due to the fact that I am trying to watch all the movies as well as tackling all the produce that our garden has suddenly sprouted.  Bagging up tomatoes, chopped up peppers and rhubarb is seriously eating into my reading time.  All of which means that my To-Be-Read pile is not getting any smaller.

Sigh.

365 movies in 365 days

Well I'm not insane... yet.  Still give it time.  I may very well be raving mad by the time I finish this project. 

Thank God for Letteboxd which is helping me keep track of everything.  If you're a movie fan I highly recommend checking it out.  You can track what movies you've watched, rate them, review them and pretty much do anything with them.  And you can compile a To Be Watched list.  Which is something I definitely needed.

Get fit and healthy

Amazingly I am doing pretty good on this front.  I've been going for an hour's walk most mornings and mostly sticking to eating healthier.  I've even been doing the odd vegetarian only day which has been super easy for me to do.  Next up a vegan only day...

I'm also keen to try water aerobics which my local swimming centre runs classes on so I may be off to buy myself a pair of togs soon... or not.  Well just have to see if I can gain the courage to give it go.

Gardening 

Never ending, though the rewards are definitely worth it.  I've got a freezer full of lovely veg for the winter and my marigolds are bringing in all the bees like crazy. 

Still there are parts of the garden that I have barely touched and those triffids I mentioned in a previous post are definitely looking more and more threatening so tackling them and the rest of the weeds is on this month's to do list.

Writing

I never seem to get around to this but I've definitely been feeling more and more like writing in the last few weeks with the head busy plotting and planning and writing.  Now I just need to put it all down on paper...
