Ohhh May! Our street is in full bloom. All the flowers are out and the trees are green. I love it!
This month marks the start of my really busy season and I'm hoping to be a little bit more productive than last month before I get crazy busy. You know those days where you feel like you did a ton but you didn't get anything crossed off your to do list? Yeah, that's how April was for me. I felt busy, but I'm not sure what I was doing. :) All in all it was a good month, but my goal is to be more focused with my time in May. I want to make sure I get out from behind my computer screen and enjoy spring!
April goals recap:
Professional
Get completely caught up with all March and April weddings so I can go into May with a clean plate!(the last April wedding will be on the blog tomorrow!)Research the markiii a little more (i.e., figure out why low-light focusing was such a problem).(I'll be renting it again this month! :) )- Clean up my office each day after office hours are over. (Total fail on this one. How can I be more organized??)
