May zine cover

 April was the last month of my slow season. From May through October, I'm going to have lots going on, both in my personal life and at work. Work is just work; there is a lot of it, and it is all fine. The personal stuff is fun, so let's talk about what's happening in May.

Today was my first docent shift of the year. I'll be in the Courtyard most Sunday mornings this summer. Today I talked to people from all over the U.S., a cute family from Serbia, and a really nice woman from Brazil. I enjoy talking to people, but it also wears me out (because I am an introvert.) Plus, since I didn't make it up to the garden during the week, I had to record blooms after the docent shift. It was great until it started raining. I got the blooms recorded, though. Besides weekly docent and bloom recording assignments, concerts start this month. I just have one on my schedule, on May 29.

This week, I am attending concert volunteer training where we will once again watch the active shooter video from the police department. I really don't like it, but it is necessary because, well, it's the reality of  the world we are living in. Also this week, MT and I  will close the sale of one of our properties and we will see Jason Isbell in concert at a venue we haven't been to before. 

After that, the next big event is a little trip to La Mirada with T. We've got a couple of fun things planned, including going to a Padres game in San Diego! 

May has special days: Mother's Day, MT's birthday, and Memorial Day which equals a long weekend. I'm getting a haircut this month, and I'd really like to schedule some personal maintenance like a pedicure and eyebrow grooming. 

In addition, there are the things I love to do like reading, painting, sketching, and writing. I continue to learn Spanish, French, and Italian with Duolingo. I am still on the Twin Health plan, so I'm paying attention to what I eat and my physical activities. 

That's all for now. Have a great week!
