[*brought to you from my 2013 planner]

January
*“Hope for all of us is hope for one of us.”
*MY BIRTHDAY!
*“So far January has been the month of the avocado.” … “On a disappointing note, I have not yet beaten last year’s high score for pinball.” … “Work continues to be work, which is why we get paid.” … “A cheese sandwich sounds good right about now.”

February
*“Lots of love for the month of love and hearts.”
*VERY SNOWY MONTH
*“I do love counting.” … “Something else to contemplate in all that meditation I’m not doing, right?” … “Today also marked possibly the most grown-up thing I have done in my life up till now — I bought lightbulbs for myself. Right there in the grocery store; it was shockingly easy.”

March
*“Even thought it looks the same outside as it did yesterday (cloudy), the feeling today is a promise that spring will come.”
*5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY AT WORK
*“What a long, strange month it’s been!” … “March also saw the start of the folder system at work.” … “I wish there was a way to explain to people that being a manager is not the same as being a magician.”

April
*“No big snowstorms should be awesome.”
*1ST EVER TRIP TO TRADER JOES
*“Always nice to run into acquaintances in the grocery store with a basket full of fruit and veg instead of chips and Oreos.” … “Skipping things is okay. It just happens that way sometimes.”

May
*“May this month bring green blessings, a bountiful crop of confidence and joy, a sense of gratitude and purpose, and a wellspring of good health.
*MOVIE MONTH, ALLERGIES, & STAFF APPRECIATION WEEKEND — SHOOTING, HIKING, & BASEBALL
*“We made it through spring without flooding or tornadoes.” … “I still feel like school should be ending and I should be getting summer vacation.”

June
*“As per usual, work is work and family is confusing, and the weather provides endless topics of conversation.”
*17 EXCLAMATION POINTS THIS MONTH
*“It’s been a month for talking, that’s for sure — mostly about the weather, it seems like. Hot, cold, sunny, rainy — it’s a good thing we don’t have cicadas up here (oh yes, it’s a cicada year too), or we’d never get any work done at all around the chatter.” … “My utter lack of ambition tends to make a lot of movie villains not make much sense to me. Why would you want to take over the world, instead of just — taking your gains (ill-gotten or otherwise) and going off to live a nice quiet life somewhere?”
