In Review: Febuary

Kind of odd to think that it's already March. Only 33 days before Sakura-Con! Last month was a little thin on posts but I'll make up for that this month.

The Ups:

Gifts from my parents: My parents went to Disney World as a belated anniversary gift to each other (their 25th) and brought back some gifts for me and my sisters. For me: a coin bank from Epcot's China, a small box that could be used for jewelry from Epcot's Morocco, and a cute Micky head keychain. My favorite is the coin bank as I love collecting them and I desperately needed one as I had piles of coins all over my room.

My darling new bank

Participated in some swaps and received all my goodies this month. Some Valetine cards, a great package from the foodie swap (I finally have food thermometers!), and books from the bookswap.

Yay for new books!

I received my first followers! Thank you so much! I was surprised when I logged in one day and there it was on the dashboard.

The Downs:

Work was frustrating as usual. We got slammed because of President's Day (which I wasn't aware was coming up) but I luckily got a three day weekend during that time. Getting really tired of my one co-worker's attitude. I feel like a broken record when it comes to my job.

Books:
So I thought I would add to this post what books I finished reading during the month; I may or may not have started reading them during the month or they may have just been laying around the house halfway read.
