June was another busy month as my quarter wasn't over until the 30th. But I made a real effort to focus on the positive despite still being quite sick and overwhelmed at times. There was certainly something good in every day, and we did quite a few fun things, which I'm very thankful for.
I first joined
Sarah and
Leslie in writing one sentence a day in January, and this is my sixth sentence-a-day post. You can
read my January sentences here, my
February sentences here, my
March sentences here, my
April sentences here, and my
May sentences here.
